Hubby uses Sorboline instead of soap because soap upsets his dermatitis. What he does is wet all over, rub the Sorboline all over, then rinse it off.
I imagine it would be much the same for Olive Oil.

Weekly spa treatment is a great idea - I might add a little bit of chocolate to the mix for good measure. For some wierd reason I have always hoarded all the lotions and potions people have given me, candles too. So I have piles of stuff I can use every week and get rid of the clutter at the same time.

Koala - Definitely schedule something in. It is so worth it.
Wiz - DBF's neighbor was telling me that she uses olive oil from a spray can. Apparently they make one similar to cooking spray but with olive oil. I have yet to go look for one and I can't remember where she got it but I'll let you know if I find it. She said it is real simple to use. Bets - Well deary, pass out the chocolates, candles, and lotions. Us ladies need our beauty days. LOL. Laura - Friday's my day too! LOL. Helps relax me before the weekend. Sandy & Curious - I have a big curling iron/straightener combo. It works great. I don't use it that often as my hair is so dang dry it would probably go on fire and totally ruin my beauty day. |

Yeah, well, my beauty day didn't go as planned. LOL I did however, blow dry my hair and did the sugar/olive oil scrub in the shower. That was the extent of my beauty day. LOL Oh wait, I did get a little foundation on too!

I know what you mean about beauty day. I decided since I have to use dilators for PN and take baths for the fhl tendinitis I have and for pT, I was going to make my garden tub a little haven I would want to go to.
I have a back scrubber, gel thing for over the eyes, lots of lavendar bubble bath, homemade scented soaps , and then my tub is surrounded by pillar candles. I take a bath a few days a week at night, turn out the lights, light the candles and put on some classical music. Feels good to relax, and it loosens my muscles before I have to do my PT exercises. When I can go out on the weekend , I usually go to the Chanel counter or Bobbi Brown and have them do my whole face. That makes me feel better. I sit my little pudendal cushion down and then pick out colors I like. |

Me and my mum had such a nice day yesterday!!
We went to the Beauticians near where we live and had our eyebrows waxed!! My eyebrows are really dark and thick so it can be really frustrating sometimes as they seem to stick out a lot. I had been wanting my eyebrows waxing for such a long time but only plucked up the courage to go yesterday! It hurt a little bit but it was no where near as bad as the RSD pain thankfully - it just made my eyes water a little bit!! I'm SO glad that I got them done and it was definitely worth it as it seems to have framed my whole face!!! Mum also treated me and let me have my nails done!!!!!! I weren't going to have mine done as my mum wanted hers doing but she decided that she would spoil me a bit due to me always being in the hospital and not going out that much - she's the best!!! I've had false nail tips put on and they look so nice and I now have long nails!! My real nails are so horrible because of the RSD (they chip real easily) so the lady that did the nails decided to put some false once on and hopefully, my own nails will start to grow. I'm really happy with how my nails look and they aren't too long so they should be OK for school! I have had a black and white nail pattern put on them also with flowers that looks pretty - ive only had that put on some nails though as I didn't want it to look too over the top. The false nails should last 2 weeks - we go for them doing again just before Easter. The women did say though that they will start to last longer the more I have them done and get used to them. My mum had her nails done also and they look really nice! She's had them done the same as me nearly although she has got diamantes on hers instead. All in all, it was a nice day yesterday and it was so nice to get pampered for a change!! I hope you are all enjoying your beauty days!!!!!

Wow that sounds nice that you can pamper yourself once a week. I wish i could financially do it as much as you can. I get a manicure and pedicure done at least once a month and this weekend my fiance and i are going to a spa to get a couples massage which im extremely excited about! Keep pampering yourself!!

I still do the olive oil treatments, although not weekly like I was. Guess I need to get back in to that. |
