    Burt’s Bee Herbal Blemish Stick

    Lately my skin has been acting crazy and it’s mainly because I went off this briefly, and then of stress from work and then the NY-LA-TO weather changes. It’s been insane.  Ew look at my skin -_-

     Anyway…. I tried a slew of products including Clean & Clear, Dermalogica, Taiwan yogurt masks, European facials and all kinds of stuff. Nothing has really worked as well as this. Most likely the best $7 you ever spent.

    Gimme 2 more weeks and my skin will be back like this! woohoo!

    *HeyDoYou is for the cute, clever and connected*
