Hey Glamour Dolls! I was inspired by the gorgeous Sabina at Makeup Addict . She did a Dare to Bare, No Makeup post earlier in the year... I finally got up enough nerve to bare my face without any makeup on my blog. Here goes... It pains me to post this pic but it is what it is...

Even in my late twenties (it pains me to say late twenties...ugh!) I'm still battling with adult acne, I'm really starting to think it'll never go away. I'm always on the look out for acne fighting products that help to treat and prevent acne flareups.

SKIN FIXERS  From left to right: Mac Fix Plus, Mac Oil Control lotion and Avon Blot sheets... To combat the extra oil my skin produces in the summer I apply Mac Oil Control lotion every day to reduce the oil on my skin. I apply a lot around my nose and forehead because this is where I retain the most oil. To get rid of the midday shine I use Avon Oil blotting sheets.

FOUNDATION I really don't wear foundation in the summer a lot unless I'm making a special appearance or
