To DermaWand or not to DermaWarnd

I was given a dermaWand to use by a friend a few years ago which I never put to use.
I recently relocated to a different city and left my dermaWand behind with a friend. to my surprise, he sent it back to me stating that I should try it out and see whether it works or not.

I immediately did research and read good and bad reviews so I decided to put it to the test myself.
I started in July 2013 and giving myself until October 2013. this will be a period of 3 months.
I will then post a before and after photograph of myself and let the public see whether there is a difference.

I dermwand every morning and evening before and after I have applied my moisturizers and serums.

I am extremely excited, but at the same time also wondering if this is going to be worth my while.

So, like the saying goes, " time will tell ".



Let me tell you a little about the DermaWand:


Radio Frequency Technology In Your Own Home!
DermaWand uses the same technology as the big radio frequency machines that Doctors and Medical Specialists use for treatments to help manage the signs of premature aging. The difference: DermaWand uses lower amplitude that's perfect for everyday in-home use. Like the big machines, DermaWand provides instant stimulation, thereby providing a massage effect while at the same time delivering thermal energy and enriched oxygen. The results – younger looking skin with only 2 three minute treatments a day. Best of all, you can do it in the comfort of your own home at a fraction of the cost of going to a doctor!

DermaWand Works Because:

    Combines the radio frequency effects of thermal energy and instant massaging stimulation - This helps the skin appear more toned and tightened, smoothing out the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. DermaWand also oxygenates by creating enriched oxygen that cleanses and purifies, reducing pore size while breathing new life into your skin's surface.
    Reduces Enlarged Pores & Uneven Texture - Oxygenate that pitted appearance for a fresh new look. No cover up required!
    Stimulates Saggy, Slackened Skin - Instant stimulation at 168,000 cycles per second helps the skin appear more lifted, toned and tightened.
    Lips - Plump up your lips and diminish those fine vertical lines for more beautiful, kissable lips!
    Reduces Puffy Eyes - Pack your bags! Wand away that tired, saggy, puffy look and diminish the appearance of excess folds. What a relief!

Cleansing Tissues

I recently decided to cleanse my face at night before going to sleep.
I don't fancy washing my face so my second option was to use cleansing wipes.
I decided to try the makeup remover cleansing tissues from Beauty Treats @Dischem.
I don't wear makeup at all but the reason for using this product is only for cleansing purposes.

I have used this product for a month and I must commend on this great product.
My skin feels clean, fresh and moisturized without feeling tight and my eyes do not burn at all!
It does contain a very light and refreshing rose water scent.

The product is formulated with natural herbal extracts, vitamin E and soothing cornflower.

I have been a sun worshiper since a young age and now that I am in my late 40's, I have developed a considerable amount of pigmentation on my face, due to excessive exposure to the sun....
