My sister, Dashababy, decided I needed a facial before my wedding. I’ve never had my eyebrows plucked out of my head and it proved to be almost as painful as the birth of my first child. I had also never had a facial. In fact, i’m telling the whole internet right now that I don’t really wash my face. I get in the shower, wash my hair, brush my teeth, inspect for boob hair, use my Bath and Body Works smell good stuff…get out. I wear make up and I never wash it off before I go to bed. I get up looking like Gene Simmons after an all nighter.
The facial was actually a ‘facial peel’. I have heard of people having this done, but those people live in Hollywood and have people who know people. I don’t know people. MY SISTER KNOWS SOME PEOPLE, and she hooked her little sister up with a facial peel.
“So, what does it do?” I ask on the ride over to the people she knows.
“It takes off about 8 layers of skin.”
I think about this for a moment. I wait for her laughter. Nothing.
“Kath, will I have to get another tan? I mean, will it like peel my tan off my face?”
“Possibly. You shouldn’t be in the sun for 24 hours afterward though.”
I wasn’t scared too much, because have you seen my sister? She’s Hawt and she gets these ever so often.
The woman that does her facials was a sweetheart. She told me the dark circles under my eyes might be from eating carbs and I didn’t correct her and tell her it’s because I stay up until 4 am watching episodes of Twilight Zone. As punishment for never washing my face with stuff that would protect me from the evils of life…she pulled my face off.
She kept asking me, ‘tingling yet?’…I would say, ‘noooo’. About 3 minutes into it, I could feel that she had put sand on my face with the stuff she was rubbing in there. She told me, ‘That is your skin’.
After the whole thing was over I was hoping to look in the mirror and see the milky white face of Nicole Kidman staring back at me, but it was just me. I was all shiney.
The next day, my face was still shiny and I have been using the stuff my sister has called, “GOLD IN A LITTLE SAMPLE PACKET….USE IT SPARINGLY”.
Today we went out to take pictures of whatever we found and Shaun thought I looked funny all hunched over taking a picture of a leaf that was floating in puddle. I heard the sound of his crunching feet coming towards me and I looked up. He caught the picture I put above. I like this picture because I look even! I mean…I glow without skin on my face!!
Thank you, Sisser Ween! I love you so very much!

You look great! I would expect your face to be red and blotchy after what you described. Did it hurt to have your face pulled off?
Your sister IS hawt. Just what type of facial is this, and where can I get one? I wanna look like you guys!
My, woman, you’re hott.
I’m back for the home stretch, and it sucks that I missed your shower. Could you have another one of those meetups, say, next Saturday night? teehee
Smoking hot.
You are gorgeous, Princess. Next time you have a party, please give me “Online Parties for Dummies” instructions, because techno dunce that I am, I don’t know how to get there.
5 Days. (SO EXCITING)
Who is that in the photo above – it looks like Nicole Kidman but I am not sure she could work a kick ass camera like that. *wink*
that picture is HAWT. I guess facial peels should be added to the gift registry. I’ve always been too much of a wuss to do one. You were gorgeous to begin with though!
You *are* glowing. By the way, what kind of camera is that!? It looks professional.
Holy crap, guess I won’t be getting a facial any time soon. I have plucked my eyebrows though and can’t say its enjoyable lol
Your brows look FAB! So does your face. I need to go do that, but I hate how they point out all my flaws!
You look great!
You look great!
you’re hawt. and aren’t facials SO GREAT? :)
I so need to get one of those. You look fantastic.
Hi–you look like you’re 21!!! Who’s the hot mama…
*WOW!*
FYI It was a pumpkin peel plus one of those quickie glycolic peels, that’s all she had time for but it did the trick it seems.
I just realized I need to find something to wear on Saturday. Somebody’s gettin’ hitched!
*blush* awwwww. Thanks guys. You know how to make a girl feel all tingly!!
I have been washing my face every day since.
It’s a Nikon D70s with a 105mm Sigma lens on it. It’s perfect for macro shots. I was taking this picture:

You can’t really see how cool the shot is until you open the picture up to the original size. The detail this lens gets…it just makes me want to wet myself!
Shaun uses the cheap ass telephoto lens I got for his sports games and I sort of feel bad because it’s his work horse that he loves…but the lens just sorta washes shit out. He doesn’t care though, he fixes it in his computer program anyway. He loves it.
Guess what? Tyler, Marina and Shea all have the stomach flu!
I’m am FTFOUT right now!!
You look gorgeous in that shot!
Hope the kiddos feel better QUICK and that no one else gets it.
Sometimes it just sucks being a girl. I remember my first facial and eyebrow pluck. I thought I was going to die. Or my face was going to explode.
You look awesome with your new skin, though!
You are glowing. If it’s not the peel, then it’s the upcoming big day!
Picture is gorgeous. I can see a little waterbug near the leaf! Love detail like that.
I’m going to have to google FTFOUT, because that’s a new one for me, and I’m afraid to ask you to spell it out ;)
Not finding it…F____ the F**k Out? What is the first F? Flipping? Or am I still way off?
freaking the F* out.
you are beautiful…and i hope the kids feel better soon!!!
peace…
You look beautiful!!!
You don’t wash your face or pluck your eyebrows?
I am so much more of a chick than you.
I had a facial once, but they didn’t take off my face. I think the spa lady did mine wrong. LOL You look awesome for having your face peeled off. You are so nice and tan and you definitely are glowing!!
Gee, Kristine, I’m sorry they pulled off your face…
Heh. I am scared of facials. Seriously. You = brave chica!
