Exfolimate...

I love exfoliating it is by far one of the best thing you can do for your skin. I was pretty excited to find out I was selected to try a new exfoliating tool called Exfolimate. It was a bit difficult to find out much about Exfolimate prior to receiving it, I did finally find a video that explained a bit more, but still wasn't thorough so I still didn't know exactly what to expect. I just waited for the package to arrive.
The day comes when my Exfolimate arrives in the mail, I open it and see to odd looking triangular objects one smaller one and one larger one. The small one is for your face and the larger for your body. There a stainless steel blade (not sharp, but for lack of a better term this is what I'm referring to it as one side and the rest is plastic.
I read the instructions and you basically just apply light pressure and run it across wet skin. I decide to give these odd things a try that evening. I use the one for body in the bath, and really can't tell if it's doing anything at all. The body one feels like you are shaving but without the hair removal. I decide to wait to try the face one until after my bath so I can look in a mirror.
Looking in the mirror I try the facial one, with this one I can see some results. I don't feel so much like it's exfoliating though as it is removing blackheads. This is basically like the blackhead/whitehead extraction tools except you can cover a larger area at once, but you do need to use a decent amount of pressure to accomplish anything.
I'm really still not sure what I think about these things. I may continue to use the facial on occasion to degunk pores, but the body one I double I will use. I typically use a loofah or exfoliationg body wash and feel I get more results from that than the body Exfolimate.

Skechers Reggae-Rasta Outdoor Lifestyle Sandal

I'm normally not a much of a sandal person aside from wedge sandals, which until my recent pair (also from Skechers), I haven't worn sandals for the past few years with  my old favorites being long past their life expectancy.  I had worked an event promoting Chaco Sandals and got a pair for free from working the event (gotta love my job). I was actually quite looking forward to trying the Chacos after seeing rave reviews and seeing they are podiatrist recommended and also a suggested sandal for Plantar Fascitis (not sure if I have it, but my mom does, and I do have high arches and get occasional symptoms of it). I worked the 3 day event in the Chacos both Z2 sandals and the Chaco Outcross (open air shoe/sandal hybrid), and while the arch support was great (almost too high even for me), the footbed was stiff.  I felt constant pressure on my arches especially in the sandals, in the Outcross, I felt the arch wasn't quite in the right spot, but still a very stiff footbe...

Chaco Outcross Evo 1 and Chaco Z2

I worked an event where I would be required to wear Chacos, and would be wearing the shoes while working.  I wasn't familiar with the brand so I Googled them prior to working, partially because I have some foot issues and wanted to see if I was going to be miserable in them or if they might actually work for my high arches.  I found out that Chaco shoes are podiatrist recommended and have excellent arch support and are also good for Plantar Fascitis.  I have high arches (as well as mild oocasional symptoms of Plantar Fascitis) and am always looking for cute shoes that have good support.  These ideally should have checked both boxes. I wore both the Outcross Evo 1 and the Z2 while working, but could only keep one pair. I really wanted to like the Chaco brand, but they just aren't working for me. I don't know if they need broken in more or if they just aren't for my feet. I have very high arches and have a hard time find shoes that are comfortable for m...

Skechers Cali Memory Foam Wedge Sandal

  I haven't owned a pair of good wedge sandals in years.  I am super picky about wedge sandals and most the new styles I don't care for either because of aesthetics, or comfort reasons.  Many of the current wedge offerings with thse type straps extend back towards the heel which I hate the look of, and others are just to hard of a footbed, or the shoe is very heavy. The Skechers Cali Memory Foam wedges have a very soft footbed (made of you guessed it.. Memory Foam), they are super cushy while still being supportive.  I have high arches and finding shoes can be a challenge for me, although I have great luck with most Skechers especially those with the memory foam, because it can conform to my foot.  These wedges do have a visible arch support on the footbed.  They are a fairly low heel at about 2 inches, I normally would prefer higher, but heel height is one area I'm more willing to compromise. Another great feature is that sandals are very lightw...
