Hello Beautiful!

Rose Petal and Chamomile Flower Face Scrub from cupcakesandcrinoline.com

It's officially picture-taking season and today I'm going to give you some tips to get ready for it involving skin care.  For years when I had photos taken I almost always had a ruddy look to my skin.  Ruddy is my nice way of saying red.  It seemed that no matter what, my skin was red or my eyes were closed or both.  It was a bit (a lot) embarrassing.  I slowly learned that one step I could take to counteract this was to use the proper skin care products so that I didn't encourage the ruddiness.  I also started making my own skin care concoctions including this homemade face scrub.
