SORRY EXCUSE
Years ago, a pretty young girl named Keira-Anne started using Clinique products on her face. The three-step program was the portal to a whole landslide of dermatologist-tested and approved soaps, lotions and potions that would moisturize, cleanse and soothe her skin on a daily basis. Before long, she had a complexion more glowing than anyone she knew.
After only a couple years, she ended her love affair with Clinique in hopes that there was something even better out there. She was wrong, and in January of 2008, she’s jumping back on the Clinique bandwagon. For good.

With tomorrow morning comes my hop onto a Greyhound, bound for the Comox Valley. Time off is much more than overdue and there is so much good stuff I am looking forward to. Thankfully I’ve booked a guaranteed spot on the “loser cruiser” because, as Rebecca mentioned the other day, BC Ferries is anticipating a ridiculous amount of traffic, and thus headaches, over the following days. Let me remind you to travel safe and give yourself extra time to get where you’re going.
While you’re there, check out her piece on the history of punk in Vancouver - it’s well worth the read.

I’m Googlicious. If you search for “Vancouver Island Blog” on Google, I’m the fourth hit! Keira-anne dot com is movin’ on up, people…

With the holidays oh-so-close, as if you needed another reason to get overly excited…

This was snapped at 10:24 a.m. today. With a mid-mountain base just shy of 200 cm and 18 cm of new snow, the slopes are where it’s at. Rest assured that you will soon see more than a few pictures of me smiling obnoxiously for the camera saying “pisu!” from the peak of the Eagle chair.

So there you have it, folks - a sorry excuse for a Thursday blog post. I hope it provided a shred of entertainment (or at least escape from the mundane). Fill my e-mail inbox or comments with ideas of what you’d like to see me write about over the holidays. I need some juice.

We’ll get ya to #1… like you are in our hearts *awwwww*
Well…I’ve been hooked on Clinique ever since you introduced me to it. I think it’s the best thing for my skin. Other products don’t come close.
I’ll move over and make room for you on the Clinique train if you save me a spot on the Loser Cruiser. My mom has used their products for as long as I can remember. She bought me my first “skin care system” and cosmetics from there before I even thought about wearing makeup and I’ve used it ever since. Only recently did I stray a little and start using some make up from Benefit. But I will always use the Clinique face wash and toner.
We don’t get any snow here and we don’t get any holiday season. Just the one day on the 25th.
And yeah Keira, we’ll get u to #1
Enjoy your holidays, don’t worry about writing for a couple of days, it’ll come to ya..:)
Have fun with your family, and playing with Charley…
And don’t forget to take pictures with cute boys while your on the mountain ;p
All of that stuff will mess your skin up in the end, you know I know what I’m talking about.
I used to buy the Clinique stuff way back when. I’d remember to get stuff when they had their Clinique Bonus days. In the end, I just found it to be a bit too expensive. My daily facial cleansing regime? Just Neutrogena.
Hi there, I’ve been frequenting your blog for a couple weeks now (saw it on mg dot org), and I am really enjoying it.. I finally am making my first post BECAUSE I’M DESPERATE AND NEED HELP!!!! I hope you can help.
Since I turned 25, I have used Oily of Olay.. now it’s just called Olay and there are so many products on the market for this like that it’s actually making my head hurt.. My problem lately is I get red skin… I believe I’ve been diagnosed by a few friends as having rosasia????? Is Clinique good for me, the girl who should be called ‘rosey’? Hope to hear back… I’m at my wits end, because I hate piling on foundation and powder 24/7 to avoid the neverending comments of ‘hey, were you in mexico, you got sunburned’.. I’m tired of the comments and tired of caking it on, I’m 36 and starting to look like an old person trying to look young.. ie. I’m feeling like I don’t look that natural anymore cuz I’m trying so hard..
So I guess my real question is does Clinique help even out your skin tone so much that you don’t need foundation?
Thank you, keep up the fun blog posts….
