30 Day Affirmation Challenge - Day 12

Ok, so there have been many personality traits in these blogs so far, and very few physical attributes.  It's no secret that I'm not 100% happy with my body.  There are some areas I would like to improve.

However after seeing photos from my friend Tracey's 40th hit Facebook yesterday, I've got to say that at the moment I'm loving my skin.  It's looking healthy and clear and balanced.

It's not often I can say that.  Since having chicken pox as a 20-something, my facial skin flairs up with a burning, itching, scaling dermatitis.  It's horrible, embarrassing and something that disappoints me.

Over the last fortnight I have made an active decision to nurture my skin and give it every chance in the world to be healthier.  It has been an interesting outcome, culminating in the photos on Friday night that made me look twice - there is no way that skin was mine!

I know there will still be flair ups.  Stress brings out the worst in my skin.  But I'll enjoy those times when I'm shining and healthy.  Like right now!
