BIGGEST INDULGENCES
Believe it or not, I am a very frugal person when considering most expenses, but there are a few splurges I can't resist....
1. WRINKLE CREAM
Robby tells me I believe anything, no matter how ridiculous! After I hit 30, I really began to stress over the ever-increasing abundance of wrinkles that seem to be overcoming my eyes. I have tried almost every facial system or wrinkle cream--no matter how expensive. I have decided my favorite skin care regimen is the Nu-Derm system by Obagi (mainly because it includes Retin-A in the regimen). The only downfalls with the system are the cost and the fact it has to be prescribed by a physician. You cannot order the complete system online, which makes purchasing the products a time-consuming inconvenience. I am also a supporter of The Eye Concentrate by La Mer. Robby says I am crazy to spend so much on an eye cream, but it lasts 4-5 months and really seems to work. I usually save all my loose change and I use that money to purchase my wrinkle cream every few months.......I don't feel as guilty about making the purchase when I use my left-over change.
2. VACATION
My other indulgence is VACATION! I love the beach and we try to visit a different island in the Caribbean every year for our anniversary. We consider the annual trip as our anniversary present to each other.
Turks and Caicos
I love La Mer... saving your change is such a great idea! I am gonna have to try it!
