Beauty Begins Today!

Growing up, people are always asking me, "Ruby! How do you keep your skin so white! Gosh you have great skin, how do you do it?"  I guess I've just been naturally blessed with good skin. Non-oily skin, from my mom's side (no pimples), and very white skin, from my dad's side (I tan, I peel, and I'm white again).

So, growing up with skin like mine, I've never really cared much for skincare. Who needs skincare when you have naturally beautiful skin? But now that I'm working at a fast food restaurant (Pizza Hut), everyday, I come home covered in smells of frier oil, and with oily skin, face and body! That can't be good for my skin at all!  I've also realized, (after countless reminders from my mom growing up), that my skin will age, and it won't always stay as nice as it was when I was younger. So I've decided that I will start taking better care of my skin.  So that means, pore strips, face mask, moisturizers, and SUNSCREEN! And of course, watching my nutrients, making sure I eat lots of fruits and vegetables that are good for my skin, and drinking lots and lots of WATER!!!


I've started to research on some everyday ingredients that are great for the skin, and some really great recipes for homemade face masks.


So, I am going to start sharing some of the information that I have found and have used, that are beneficial for the skin.  I hope everyone will find it helpful!
