Are those skin tags on my face?


This is something new, as always new but not good.  Worse still, if they are found on my face.  My beautician identified them as skin tag. But, I'm not really convinced yet.  After googling, skin tags are those 'unwanted' tiny bulging (some are those 'dangling' flesh) found mostly on neck and armpit areas. 

Of late, upon closer examination, I found a few white, bulging spots on my face. Yeah, mine are spots, not flesh.  My 'inexperienced' beautician seemed to stay away from my cheek areas when it came to the blackheads extraction process.  When asked, they claimed that my cheek area were free from blackheads and therefore needed no extraction. 

I'm little convinced by this advice. For two months straight in a row, I was spared from extraction on my cheeks.  This month, just a few days ago, I made sure my 'grievances' were heard by a senior. Somehow, the senior beautifician was occupied and sent me someone more junior than her to 'take care' of me, she assured. I wonder what's this senior doing as I had been hearing her voice chatting away at the reception area while I was in the salon room.

I need to find a way for someone to examine my face so that I can take measures to eliminate these unsightly spots or prevent further growth of them.

Those mats don't last

Rubber yoga mats, just like, sneakers or shoes will turn dry if not used for long.  I've not done yoga for more than a year.  So, my less than two-year-old yoga mat is slowly gathering dust on the outside of the cover.  It is slowly sticking together when rolled up, and the rubber is flaking too when scraped.

I hope it will get totally flaked so that I can find no use of it and discard it. What I fear is if the mat is only partially 'unusable', this will tempt me to hoard it until it is really not functional.

Comfortable innerwear

I found these innerwear very, very comfortable to the skin.Well, I mean when we are in our slumberland.  Forget about the lacy and seductive types first. You can still walk to the kitchen and yet not feel embarassed if you are caught in this by your kids.

As I do not want to be 'wrapped' up in those tight and restraining bra at night, these are good replacement, suitable to be worn for yoga and other forms of exercises too.
