Zit Happens

There is something day-ruining about waking up with a zit (at least for me). But seriously, I think we can all agree that when you wake up & see a giant mountain of clogged pore on your face, it's like having your coffee with a side of huge bummer. For the ladies, we'll spend a good portion of our morning trying to cover it with heavy duty cover-up over powder over cover-up until we've made the facial flaw exponentially more noticeable now that it's caked over with makeup. Not to mention the fact that once you remove all that makeup, your blemish is guranteed to be worse than when you started! For the guys, most likely the reaction to a zit (if it's even noticed) is to move on with the morning without a thought. Or to pop it. I highly recommend refraining from any picking or popping if you can (not that I take my own advice 100% of the time...). One time my boyfriend asked me why I hadn't told him that he had a zit... to which I replied that the zit in question was so high up on the side of his forehead that I frankly can't see up there very often with our serious height difference!

Whether you're a guy or a girl, whether you obsessively try to cover up your zit or honestly could care less that you have one, Mario Badescu Drying Lotion http://www.mariobadescu.com/drying-lotion should be living in your cosmetics collection for moments like this. This will be the best less-than-$20 you ever spend. I stumbled across this stuff ages ago in the bouts of a high school breakout. Once my skin cleared itself up with age, I totally forgot about this miracle worker. Recently, I once again had a need for some serious zit-zapping help & was walking around near my office & stumbled across the Mario Badescu Spa. The amazing-ness of the Drying Lotion all came rushing back to me & I burst into the spa ecstatic to once again own this insanely effective item. I think the spa workers were a bit unnerved at my unbridled enthusiasm for the Drying Lotion but I couldnt help myself. I rushed home, took off my makeup & carefully dabbed on the pink "sediment" as they call it. After a few hours, I washed it off and my zit was literally almost gone. No joke. I used it again before bed & when I woke up in the morning - clear skin perfection. If only I had remembered my old friend Mario Badescu in my college years... I could've saved myself lots of cover-up applying time!
