FIIL: Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen

Speaking of summer, please tell me you’re remembering to wear some sunscreen! Look, I understand, I want caramel thighs, too. But, we gotta put on a leettle bit of sun protection. We all know the more you wear the better, but, I’m realistic. I know you guys. If you’re not going to put on on sunscreen for health’s sake, maybe do it for vanity? That’s why I wear it. The longer people think I’m in my 20s, the better, and there aren’t a lot of 23 year old women walking around with sun spots and wrinkles.

Can I just take a minute and really give thanks for my goth childhood? Blessed be. All those years spent sulking in the shade really saved my skin the usual harm that occurs during the teen years. You can’t get sun damage from sitting in your room and burning incense!

Having a really good time at my 15th birthday party.

In the last 17 years since that birthday, I’ve come around on the sun.

Wait.

17, ALMOST 18,  years since that birthday?! The time between the girl in the photo and now is longer than the the time between the girl in the photo and HER BIRTH. That’s so fucking sick. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh no. Things are really on the downhill slide.

Look, I hate to be a downer, but, I’m just realizing that sunscreen won’t turn back the clock. It’s cool though, because, you know, only you have to know the EXACT time on the clock. Not that I’m one of those people who are embarrassed by their age. I’m not. I just want to be 25 forever.

I wrote about this sunscreen last year, and my love for it is holding strong. I really dislike even wearing moisturizers that have spf in them, so that really says something. This sunscreen is light and hydrating, without leaving that gross, gritty, grime feeling. Even better, I have never had any adverse reactions from using this product; no zits, no blackheads, no itchy bumps, no residue.

Since I didn’t really grow up to be an outdoors person, I don’t need a separate sunscreen every day. This sunscreen is waterproof, so it’s pretty much just the couple times a week I’m in the pool AKA day drinking and working on the choreography for our “Man, I Feel Like A Woman” routine with my synchronized swimming partner. I’m thinking about aquatic dance moves, and I do not need to be worried about getting a sunburn, ok? I use this sunscreen for my face, ears, neck, and chest; and I use a regular Coppertone, or whatever, for the rest of my body. So far, so good! My face skin is secure.

You can pick up Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen pretty much anywhere. I grabbed my bottle at the grocery store! It ain’t hard to come by! Check it out!

    I used this a couple of weekends ago at Andy’s house. Worked awesome, and no crazy breakouts!

  2. IF YOU ARE GOING TO USE A BAND’S SONG TITLE & PICTURE AS A PART OF YOUR POST, AT LEAST USE A PICTURE OF THE REAL LEAD SINGER. IF YOU HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THE LEAD SINGER YOU IMMEDIATELY KNOW THIS IS NOT HIM, NO MATTER IF YOU CAN SEE HIS CAN SEE HIS WHOLE FACE OR NOT.

    This is a picture of an actor of a film that was **not** modeled after the lead singer of this song, only the makeup & clothes the lead singer wears.

    Truly a disgrace to see this, as this is an influential band for many people all over the world. The Cure’s music spans close to forty years.

    I have followed you for a while now, as I enjoy your humorous and fun vibe. I also get the vibe that you’ve got strong personality, which I admire. Opinions are like a-holes, we all have one. You may not like my a-hole & probably think I am one for writing this comment.

    It will be interesting to see if you are a blogger who can handle the criticism and allow my comment to be posted or those who delete it.
