im ahhhhhhhhficially obsesseed with thin crust pizza. it's just so delicious. and probably healthier than normal pizza, but not sure. also ive started like squeezing the grease out of the pizza, cause when you think about it there is just way too much grease on that thing. it tastes better without. i also like one mozarell cheese piece instead of white cheese all over. like margharita (spelling?) pizza is my fave.  this goes against my new york roots in too many ways.

also its getting so late and we all know late=more lazy than usual for me. that statement implies that i am too tired to put up my mini internet haul. i did wash the shirts though, hashtag progress.

oooh i fell asleep with my mint julep mask on!!!! it didnt even crack off or anything like three hours later at the most. youre only supposed to have it on for 15 minutes. the other formula 10.0.6 masks i have wouldve cracked off. anyways, i finally got around to taking it off and my skin was amazing looking. i went out in public, SANS MAKEUP. and i felt beautiful! who knows how i actually looked lol.

well i guessssss i'll put up my itunes list for you guys who might actually care

Mint Clay Mask

Mint Clay Mask

Description

A minty cooling and firming face-mask.

Ingredients

3-4 Tablespoons of Fuller's earth clay

8-10 mint leaves

3-4 teaspoons of distilled water*

Method

Mix ingredients in a small bowl until it forms a paste.

Place paste into refrigerate to chill overnight

Thaw out the mixture and smooth generously over face

When dry, rinse off with lukewarm water.

Notes

* The water doesn't need to distilled but distilled water is just cleaner and more suitable for your face.

Before adding the mint leaves to the clay and water I would suggest rolling it, then cutting it roughly just to bruise the mint  leaves and help the mintyness seep into the rest of the paste.

Remember, when applying the face-mask have a thick even layer all over your face but avoid the eye area.

When washing off the face-mask it's a good idea to use cold or cool water as warm/hot water opens your pores which takes away the point of the mask.

This mask is really good for all skin types but is especially good for combination skin types.
