Fun website
I have been a member of Bzz Agent for a while. Recently I learned of a fun site called Influenster. You get "points" for your thoughts, reviews, etc. If you are lucky, you get selected to receive a box of samples. I recently joined and was invited to take a qualification survey for a box. Unfortunately, I did not qualify, but hopefully I will in the near future.
Found a new staple for my beauty routine
About two years ago, a friend told me about Bzz Agent. For those that aren't familiar, it is a website where you sign up, complete surveys and can qualify to receive free products. In return for you receiving the free products, you "Bzz" about the product. Write reviews, connect on FB with the product, tell your friends and family members. Sometimes it is hard to do these activities, especially if you don't love a product. Other times, you can't stop talking about it even if your Bzz Agent campaign activities have long been completed.
One of these products is Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid.
I have sensitive, fair toned skin that is prone to breakouts. A lot of products will help with the breakout but make my skin dry and flaky. Or they cause redness that becomes extremely visible because of how pale I am. This always makes me skeptical to try new things. I wasn't sure what to expect from Paula's. It had great reviews online, but then again, so did Proactive and that killed my skin. The first time I used it, I was pleased that when applying, it didn't burn my skin or cause tingling as this type of product sometimes can. It has a texture thicker then water but not my much and almost no scent (which is a plus in my book). I didn't really notice anything with my skin until about three days into using the product. I've never had smooth or glowing skin and I started to notice that for the first time, my skin felt smooth to the touch. Perhaps the most surprising was that I didn't get my usual hormonal breakout around the time of my period like I usually do. I had one small pimple on my chin instead of the multiple breakout locations I can sometimes have.
I am very grateful to have been a part of this Bzz Campaign and can picture myself using and talking about this product long after the campaign ends.

Starting Over
I started this blog when I began my visits to Pittsburgh to record some of my observations, thoughts and experiences. To say a lot has happened since the last time I posted would be a massive understatement. Since my last post, I got engaged, moved to Pittsburgh, changed jobs, got married, honeymooned in Rome, met Pope Francis and have been adjusting to the daily struggles of newlywed life.
All that being said, I am going to start writing in this blog again but instead focus on the daily life of a Catholic girl who got married later in life (I was 34 when I got married). What are some of the ups and downs? Good things that happen? The bad? Emotions associated with it and everything in between.
