Grump.

Ye gods, I hate low blood sugars, especially when they creep up on me in ninja suits & clobber me around the back of the head before I've noticed them coming.

I hate them even more when I don't deserve them; if I'd been eating doughnuts & fruit pastilles, and not baked beans & sushi & grilled chicken, I'd accept that I wass due a Plummet. But I'm trying to be healthy, and eat (mainly) slow-release stuff (except when I don't), and this still happens.

So I've been forced (forced, I tell you) into buying a bag of Wonka's Fruity Wobble Drops and a bar of Galaxy chocolate in an attempt to stop me feeling cold & sleepy & worthlesss & crappy & generally an appalling excuse for a human being. *drumss fingers & waits for the sugar to work its magic*

Why iss it that skin stuff for dry skin leaves me feeling like an oil slick, stuff for normal skin does the same (but with an hour delay) and stuff for combination / oily skin sucks all the crap out of my poress then leaves them looking like Giant Craters On The Moon. Honestly, I look about 50 today. I want a face lift.

I miss physical contact. I did that "love language" meme thing, or whatever it was called, & the physical stuff came first by miles. I miss having people around who I can just walk up to & hug, or ruffle as I walk past, or lean against.

I want a face lift.

I have a similar problem - unfortunately only Chanel, Clinique and Cyclax like talking to my skin without it busting out in red blood vessels and little pin-prick blisters. :-\ The only way around the battle for clean pores without looking like Joan Rivers I've found is use a face cleanser for dry skin that you use water to wash off. It's a tap water theeung in that you respect the amount of chemicals the water board adds to your supply and trust in those to break down excess oils in the facial wash. *taps nose* Consider it a pre-toner effect.

Moisturiser's a tricky little monkey. Try Superdrug instead of Boots and look for Cyclax lotion - it's light, it's nice, goes on and in easy and it's cheap (less than £5 for 500mls where I get mine from).

Cyclax? Right; I'll look out for it. Looking like Joan Rivers would be a step up for me, atm. Hell, looking like Pete Burns would be.

Or I could just rub up against those cheekbones to exfoliate...
