my friend and i
used to go after work sometimes. this being a reasonably swanky london gym, they had nice dispensers full of body lotion, cleanser and moisturiser by every mirror and sink.

after a session one night, we went to the pub for a different session. when vix came back from the bar, i noticed that her face looked like mine felt - red, tight, shiny and a bit sore. i quizzed her, and we pieced together the fact that both our faces had been like this after the gym for quite some time. oh damn, an allergy to exercise, then, what a crying shame.

or not. turned out the "moisturiser" was actually liquid soap, and we'd just been rubbing that into our faces and not washing it off... as a skincare regime, i don't recommend it, unless the freshly plucked chicken is a look you are going for.

Too late for Mon!
I wish I had read this yesterday.

Our head accountant has been taken ill with Swine Flu and we were each given a bottle of hand sanitizer to prevent the spread of infection. Having the mental age of a primary school kid I tried it on my face to see what happened. Not Good.
