Protective style

Nothing seem to be working out at the moment. My face is a mess and my hair is not growing at all. I dont know whether it decided to go on strike like the service delivery protest around the country.

I have been so impatient with my hair growth that I decided to do a protective style and I hope to stay with it for a while. Am loving my red senegalese twist. I was brave and went for red. It paid off cause it makes me look bright in these winter days.  My face is looking better cause atleast there is that glow but the pimples come and go. Now I have spots on my face as well. Hmm Dilemmas of a "teenage" thirty something old woman.

Removing the mask

So I have been having a lot of acne lately since I stopped taking purbac. I have been really frustrated as I am not used to pimples on my face. My diet is not as it should be but I am a religious water drinker esp when I am at work. I drink 2-3 liters a day. I have been hearing that drinking a lot of water clears the skin well imagine my frustration when I am constantly with pimples on my face more so when I am on my period.

I was doing a lot of research on how to keep my natural hair looking healthy and to grow. Lo and behold I ran on an article on using olive oil for your face. I was willing to try anything. So I started on using olive oil and then steam my face for a few minutes and then wipe the oil off. It left my skin feeling great and with a nice glow. This weekend I made a olive oil and honey mix to use as a mask. My skin is feeling good and am loving the glow it is leaving afterward. I have been noticing that the pimples are disappearing and dark spots fading. Am gonna keep at this and see how it goes.

If the pimples dont go atleast I am enjoying a glowing face...
