Blog Envy

Blog Envy :)

I have blog envy! LOL I really do I hop around from blog to blog and they all look so nice and professional. I come back to mine and yuck :( I am trying and I think I am improving the look of my blog but it is taking time. I am flying by the seat of my pants so to speak self taught. I am older I will not say how old but I will give you a clue. When I went to High School no one had a calculator let alone a computer they took up a whole room back then. Another thing I am not a writer If you notice my posts are mostly short and to the point I know they should have more detail. I will keep trying, learning and reading blogs and maybe in five or ten years mine will look like some of yours.

I envy all of you and your beautiful blogs but just a little because I really enjoy reading them all.

Week 2 My Clarisonic Review

With three speeds and a body mode, the PLUS is ideal for cleansing the face and areas of the body needing extra attention.

My Clarisonic Review

I received my Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System as a member of the Vogue Influencers Network a few days ago. I must say it really does a wonderful job of cleaning my skin. It works much better than my routine of cleanser and washcloth. I want to see how my skin improves over the next few weeks. I do love that it has a charger so you have no cord to deal with. Stay tuned I will post more after I have used the Clarisonic for a full week.





From the lead inventor of Sonicare®, the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System uses sonic technology to gently, yet thoroughly, cleanse 6X better than using your hands alone. By removing more dirt, oil and makeup, creams and serums are able to work more effectively.

You can find more information @ Clarisonic


Disclosure: Vogue Influencer Network provided the Clarisonic Plus to me for review.
