Nerium - An Honest Review (Part 1)

*** Note!!! I am NOT a Nerium brand partner and I do not plan on becoming one!!!! ***

Well....it has really been a while since I've updated my blog! I have a new product review I am working on to post.  Recently a friend of mine began selling NeriumAD.  What is NeriumAD?  It's a skin cream.  And a pyramid marketing plan.  Nerium's second listed ingrediant is Nerium Oleander, a plant that is highly toxic to humans if consumed.  Apparently Nerium Oleandar has been having a few breakthroughs in the scientific world lately, and this skin cream is one of the products of it.

Despite hearing many bad things about Nerium, I had also heard just as many great things about it.  I was not sure if the great things may have been said by other brand partners in an attempt to try to get others to buy the product or if it really does great things to your skin.  So I messaged my friend and said "Sure, I will try your product for a little bit and see how it makes my skin look."  Right away she messaged me and said she would drop by the night cream and day cream with the instructions so I could begin the 10 day trial period.  Right now, I am on day 6.  Do I like it? I'm not sure.  My skin is, actually, the softest it has ever felt.  However it seems to be causing my jawline to break out in deep red purple zits.  I went through a similar experience when I started Alpha Hydroxy lotion on my skin, and when my skin finally cleared up, it was AMAZING (although I still had those pesky fine lines and wrinkles!) Maybe Nerium will be the same.  Once my skin gets used to the product and clears up, maybe my skin will be beautifully flawless and wrinkle free. (ha ha!)  Well, here's hoping.

So here is my Day 6 picture.  The left side is the first day I started it, before I applied anything. The right was this morning.  I've had a few people say that it looks like there is a big difference in my undereye wrinkles and crows feet.  I suppose I can see it a little bit.  I'll take another one on Day 10 and see what it's like then.

April Already?

Well, I had really wanted to accomplish a weekly blog. Looks like monthly will be more my style. So far, since last month, I've somehow managed to dig myself into a deep hole, financially. I made a big payment to my overdue condo bills, had another large bill go through, which bounced my mortgage check, had my car broke down and needed to use the two credit cards I had JUST paid off to fix it, and had to take two of my animals to the vet. I'll be taking a third animal, my ferret Odin, to the vet tomorrow. Also, I just got a letter from some lawyer saying if I don't contact her about 500 dollars in late condo dues, she wants to send a foreclose lawsuit on my house? What? And I've been callig her every day and no one ever picks up the phone? How the he'll am I supposed to get into contact with her. What the hell happened in March? How did all of this shit fall on me at once?!? And everytime I think that this is the worst it can be, something else breaks, or another pet gets sick, or something else on my house breaks. I just wish paydays were not as few and far between.
In other news... I opened an Etsy store for my photography. Haven't sold any yet, but I only just opened it last weekend :-) it only has 6 pictures on it for now, but my computer has since died and I am not able to list any others. Come to think of it, I should put most of the pictures on hold until I can get my computer back.

Here is my store:
