| joli's Full Review: Olay Daily Facials |
I never, ever thought I would write an epinion in the beauty category - heck, I usually don't even brush my hair. BUT, these things are so great - I just had to bite the bullet and let someone know.
Before I was married I liked to look decent and wore makeup on a regular basis. I was in the army from ages 19 to 26, so my makeup consisted of minimal blush and waterproof mascara. Once I got out of the army, the waterproof mascara wasn't really necessary anymore - but old habits are hard to break and I just continued wearing it (who knows when a freak rainstorm or flash-flood will create those dreaded racoon-eyes).
About three years after I got married, I finally decided the nightime 'routine' of fighting with my eye makeup just wasn't worth it anymore - and I quit wearing makeup alltogether. I hate to use anything that dries my skin out, so my makeup remover was baby oil - and no matter how hard I tried, I could never get all the mascara off. Normally, I woke up in the morning wearing the leftover mascara on my nose or forehead. Basically, for about two years after I gave up, I only wore makeup on special occasions.
One day I saw the daily facials and bought them. I used them for the first time after one of my rare makeup events - and I was amazed.
I took off my mascara with baby oil, I wetted my face, I wetted the facial cloth and rubbed it to make a lather, and I washed my face and eyes (eyes closed) :-) with it. I then rinsed the cloth (it rinses quickly and easily) and wiped both my eyes, and then rinsed it again and wiped the rest of my face.
My face didn't feel transformed or look any cleaner than usual - but all my eye makeup was gone. It was that easy. I was, and still am, amazed.
And now I wear makeup to work ... almost every day. :-)
