If there’s anything better than breakouts and fine lines at the same time, I don’t know what it is, man. I’m at that age where I’m starting to see where my first real wrinkles are going to be, yet I’m still dealing with zits. Not pimples, not blemishes, zits. ZITS. Seriously, are we not too […]

Why, oh why do I still have to deal with my skin breaking out? I’m approaching 40, yet my skin still acts like a teenager’s sometimes. Excuse me while I whine a little — but it just doesn’t seem fair that I’m trying to choose skin-care products that help prevent wrinkles and blemishes. Do they […]
