Preparing For Our Show

Hey Friends!  I made a random Sunday post, so check it out after you read through everything here!


Hey Friends!  Today I want to talk about something that is a little bit taboo.  Generally I keep this blog very focused on design, but today I am going to step outside of that category. As many of you know, Tim and I are working on getting our design show ('Til Design Do Us Part) on the air!  We have finished our sizzle reel and hope to be taking the next step very soon.



Tim and I really feel like the timing is right and we've been trying to prepare ourselves in every way possible.  Being that our goal is a television show, we know we will have HD cameras zoomed in on our faces at some point.  That is a little bit intimidating, and therefore I've been trying to get my skin care on point.



A few weeks ago, I just so happened to receive an e-mail from BlogHer saying they were doing a review program with StriVectin-SD™ Intensive Concentrate for Stretch Marks & Wrinkles.   On a whim I signed up.

Why not try a product that's supposed to help with an issue I am currently thinking about, right? I received the product in the mail a few weeks ago and started using it. Of course I took some before pictures to see if there really would be any change.  The area I am most concerned with is around my mouth.  I guess I've done a lot of smiling over the years, because it seems there is a permanent line there now.  It's not terribly pronounced yet. . .but that's what I'm hoping to avoid!

StriVectin-SD™ Intensive Concentrate for Stretch Marks & Wrinkles dramatically diminishes the appearances of wrinkles, from fine lines to deep creases (and stretch marks, too!). It's StriVectin's #1 best seller, a wrinkle fighting hero. Only StriVectin formulas have a patented, clinically-proven NIA-114 molecule that powers up skin to help repair damage and fight off all visible signs of aging for a youthful look and feel. Find more information on the StriVectin site.

Only being two weeks in, I haven't really noticed a change in my smile lines, but the product definitely keeps my skin well-hydrated (which of course is one way to prevent new wrinkles).  So that's good!

I'm definitely interested to see how things are looking after I use the product for the recommended 8 weeks. You may have noticed that the product is also for stretch marks.  I haven't had any children, but I did gain a few stretch marks when I started college and began heavy weight lifting for basketball.  Once again, I haven't used the product long enough to see any real change, but I am definitely interested to see if it helps to eliminate these marks! So what about you guys?  Have any of you ever tried StriVectin?  What were your results?
