caring for your skin

I am not alabaster-skinned. But it didn't really matter much to me when I was growing up. I was grateful that my face was smooth and clear and I didn't have to rely on acne cream treat it. I have friends who spend hefty sums to get rid of those unwanted pimples and I pity them because more than the financial stress that they are undergoing, the emotional turmoil is harder and more difficult to manage. Regular visits to dermatologists didn't help at all. There was this one friend who had to seek the expertise of US based doctors. I am not one to really care for my skin. As I have mentioned in the past, I am a no-maintenance type of woman, but seeing my friends and some people I know suffer from acne, I am starting to really keep my skin especially my face dirt free!
