How To Have Baby Cheeks

It's Friday afternoon folks... which can only mean one thing. 

My face is sticky. 

Since it will remain sticky for about the next thirty minutes, I have nothing better to do right now than sit down post about it.

Friday, you see, is the day I give myself the Friday Facial. 

I give myself a Friday facial because that traveling man I married comes home on Fridays, and I just think he ought to come home to something a little more pleasant than the menopausal fifty face I usually wear.

I give myself  a homemade facial because I'm a cheapskate who really doesn't like to pay for a product that might or might not work. Plus, I'm kind of an earth girl who likes to use stuff found in nature. Plus, I just don't need one more bottle or tube to clutter up my vanity...

Plus, it works.  

No, really... It does for pennies what I have yet to see another product do as well. That's why I'm yakking it abroad in blog land.  

I must warn you, though, the ingredients are very exotic. 

Here ya go:

Dissolve 3 tablespoons of white sugar 

in 3 tablespoons of very warm water.

Put one of those cheap circle face thingies into the mix 

and let it soak up the mixture.

(You could probably use cotton balls or something like that, but I like the circle thingies.)

Gently apply all over the face, even the eye lids if you're careful. 

You might want to avoid the lips if you're on a low carb diet. 

And don't forget the throat.  

There's absolutely no point in having baby cheeks 

if you're just going to stick them on top of a chicken neck, people.

Leave on about 30 minutes. Then gently remove it with warm water. 

Follow up with splashes of cold water. 

And there ya go: Baby Cheeks.

That's my beauty tip of the day.

I'm pretty sure that everybody has a favorite  beauty tip or two.

What's yours?

I need all the help I can get.
