Last week I administered a “home facial chemical peel” using products that are normally used in an office setting. And yes, it BURNS like a thousand suns. And I had to use four layers 'cuz my sun-damaged skin was pretty tough.
The process worked as it should, and within 2 days I noticed that indeed my face was peeling. Just not, say, evenly.
This morning I thought I’d try a hydrating masque maybe to loosen the dead patches of skin. It was avocado based.
I now have green patches of dead skin all over my face which I can’t wash away. Thank God the hub stayed home from work so he could take the kid to pre-school. I can just imagine how self-depracating I would have had to be!
One time in college, my friend wanted to dye her hair blue. I did the actual dyeing for her, stupidly without the benefit of gloves. I had solid blue hands for two weeks!
At the time I was teaching afterschool science programs to elementary kids, so when they asked what happened to my hands (and they ALL asked!), I told them they should always, always wear proper safety equipment when conducting science experiments.
Sorry about the green face. I’m sure it’ll wear off pretty quickly.
Ooooooooooh! :smack: Well that’s a relief. After whiteboard erasing fluid, there’s not much before you’ve got to hit the battery electrolyte from the UPSs.
(I’d still prefer the Fast Orange)
