The last few months my skin has been getting WORSE and WORSE. Especially since being on vacation and having to apply liquid sunscreen every day. I felt like a pubescent 13 year old with giant cystic pimples and white heads- GROSS! I'm almost 30, I thought I was over having acne like this. Well, come to find out, its most likely from my miscarriage back in May- hormones are going crazy and your chin is the central spot for breakouts caused by hormones and ovaries. 

Anyways, I went in for a simple eyebrow wax at the hotel spa (Alexander Spa at The Marriott Kauai) and the sweet lady doing my brows asked me a couple honest questions about my skin and then offered to do a few treatments, her treat ;) She did a few PAINFUL extractions (my chin was SWOLLEN), and applied some toner and sent me on my way with a mask to apply later in the day. 

I got home and applied the mask after showering, let it sit for 30 minutes and fell in LOVE. It smells REALLY good, feels awesome, totally calmed my inflamed skin, and left it feeling smooth and soft. I will definitely be going back tomorrow to pick up a big tube of this stuff! LOVED IT! PLUS, its vegan and totally natural- WIN, WIN!

If you are experiencing pregnancy acne or your skin is suffering like mine after a miscarriage, I HIGHLY recommend this line. I will be posting after pictures soon ;) As for now, I know how it feels- GRRREAT!
