30 days No Squeezing challenge

Squeezing is my little dark guilty secret.
I´ve been `doing it`for more than half of my life and I could never stop. I could give up smoking or drinking or even eating sweets `cold turkey`, but I could hardly go a day without this.

Sometimes I torture myself thinking how much better my skin would look if I didn´t squeeze black and blue for years, but since it´s pointless, I try not to dwell upon that for too long.

However, it's never too late to change.
And change comes today. Not tomorrow, not on New Years, but today.
I will refrain from squeezing for 30 days. I will not try, but I will do it. There is no try.

Challenges

Apart from the obvious difficult breaking of a long-established habits, there's the part where I am afraid my skin might actually need squeezing by now no to look like a strawberry. After so many years - I theorize - my pores I probably so misshapen that no amount of proper treatment will really fix them getting stuck... We shall see.

Reward

Yes, there's that little carrot on the stick.
If I manage full 30 days, I will treat myself to Nokia 1020 Pureview.
It's a nice pun I guess, 'Pureview'. And maybe my skin will actually get better so I can use the amazing quality of the camera on my own face?

Footnotes

I won't be posting everyday, that would be a waste of space.
I think.

Body Shop: Wild Rose Hand Cream SPF15

While cursed with oily T-zone, rest of my skin tends to get very dry; I know a lot of you are foundation or nail polish or eyeshadow hoarders, I am definietly a moisutizer hoarder. I stock up on  lot of body lotions (currently 5 bottles ^^), lip balms (6 sticks?) and hand creams.

I think I've already mentioned it, but I'll have to stress this again: Netherlands is not the best place to buy cosmetics. The choice is pretty narrow, mostly well-known brands worldwide brands, not too much locally. I discover that over and over again when looking for somethign specific, in this case a hand cream with SPF. There was not a single one in my drugstore! I was bummed.

Then I went online and saw that Body Shop, company I in genegral respect, though have an ambivalent opinion about their products, does have a product with SPF. Not a fan of rose smell but I could overlook that.

Let me cut right down to the point: hand's down worse hand cream I've ever had. Ever.
This products dries my skin more than it moisturizes. I was looking at the ingridients list expecting to see low molecular weight alcohols there to justify hwo drying it is, but they do use fatty alcohol so I will put that effect on teh amout of perfume the product has.

Never again.
Shame on you, Body Shop!
