I went to the gay pride parade and festival in Phoenix today. And as usual, I got a sunburn, even though I slathered myself with copious quantities of sunblock.
And to make matters worse, I was taking photos all day long, so I put my baseball cap on backwards. The side effect of that action is a nice semi-circle shaped sunburn smack dab in the middle of my forehead. Gotta love it!
Will update photo and data as the Farkle Fest Forges on.

Many women deal with skin problems that are the major reasons behind their low confidence. Some of these problems are uneven skin tone, acne scars and dark circles around the eyes. Different products are available in the market for all customers to try. In fact, it is possible for you to purchase skin lightening innovations in different forms. These may appear in the form of pills, face masks or the common whitening cream. Skin bleaching products are cheaper than treatments offered in derma-aesthetic centers.
What can you do to your skin?
Changing bad habits can show big differences if you want to improve your skin. Note that your present lifestyle can also be the cause of skin imperfections. Drinking enough water can hydrate and moisturize the skin. Quitting smoking can alleviate dark spots. Adequate sleep relieves tired-looking eyes. Wearing sunblock can prevent skin darkening.
Observe your habits closely and determine those that affect your skin the most. These skin imperfections are reversible, and so are their causes. Recent signs of skin imperfections indicate a bad change to your habits. They must be overturned immediately especially if it’s a lack of sleep. This not only gives dark and heavy eyebags but also weakens the immune system.
Good sanitary habit is also a key. Avoid touching your hands with dirty fingers. Stay away from dusty places. Avoid foods that cause skin allergy and itchiness. These are good solutions, but they may not work for everyone. If all these fail, then skin products may be what you need.
What is Skin Bleaching?
Bleaching your skin explained
Skin bleaching is an effective way to even out your skin tone. It works by using chemicals to reduce the melanin in the skin. Melanin is the substance, which gives color and shade to our hair, eyes and skin. The color of the skin is determined by the presence of melanin. The more melanin your skin has, the darker your skin color will be. Skin whitening reduces the amount of melanin in the skin to make it lighter.
Precautions Before you Purchase
The greatest concerns regarding these products are their harsh ingredients. Strong chemicals are used in skin bleaching This should be done by an expert or with the advice of a professional. There are potential risks associated with it. These risks are sometimes not stated in the labels of the products you buy.
Mercury
Skin whitening products may have mercury. This can cause skin illnesses and worse complications. It is also a highly toxic chemical. It can cause neurologic and kidney problems. Worse cases can lead to mercury poisoning. Manufacturing companies can disguise mercury under many names. This is done so the product is sold easier. Its other names can be calomel or mercuric.
Hydroquinone
Another ingredient to watch out for is hydroquinone. This is an extensively strong ingredient. It is commonly present in skin lightening products all over the world. Prolonged and abusive use of this ingredient can cause premature aging. Hydroquinone stops melanin from being reproduced.
If you plan to use products with hydroquinone, then it is necessary to apply sunblock as well. This can protect the skin from being burned. Excessive use of this can cause untreatable skin conditions, such as ochronosis. Hydroquinone is actually recognized as one of the best skin lightening products in the market worldwide. This may be the reason why it is accessible to consumers everywhere.
When buying a skin lightening product, the hydroquinone content shouldn’t be more than 2%. It is best not to purchase products with no accurate information regarding its hydroquinone contents.
Steroids
Some options for bleaching skin cream in the market can also have steroids. Any miscalculation by the product’s manufacturer can cause skin infections. These include acne, blemishes and other skin problems. Anything applied unto the skin will eventually get absorbed into the body. These include creams and beauty products with steroids. Inappropriate use by the consumer can harm or irritate the skin.
Facts about skin bleaching
Bleaching Creams: Proper Use
Professionals will give you different instructions on how to bleach your skin. Procedures can also vary depending on the product. This is commonly based on the product’s potency. Instructions will also depend on the skin type and sensitivity. It may also differ on the body part you wish to bleach. Sensitive areas have thinner skin than the rest of the body. These include the face, neck and armpits. Greater care should be considered when bleaching these areas.
Harsh or strong chemicals can darken them easily. There are also special creams for these body parts while also providing other benefits. A face bleaching cream doesn’t only lighten skin but also moisturizes. This can make the skin look alive and younger. Underarm lightening creams also smoothen chicken skin and limit hair growth.
It’s best to follow prescriptions when buying skin lightening products for the first time. The directions given by dermatologists can’t always be correct. It is best to record your own observations as well. The skin’s reaction to new or certain products should also be noted. Consult the skin specialist about the product’s effects and ask if they are natural.
Some bleaching solutions like hydroquinone give the skin a fiery-red flush. This usually happens a few days before it exfoliates. Light exfoliation is commonly accompanied by a light stingy feeling. This is normal to almost any process involving your skin.

Salvador Dali once said of his waxed mustache: Since I don't smoke, I decided to grow a mustache - it is better for the health. However, I always carried a jewel-studded cigarette case in which, instead of tobacco, were carefully placed several mustaches. I offered them politely to my friends: "Mustache? Mustache? Mustache?" Nobody dared to touch them. This was my test regarding the sacred aspect of mustaches.

The worst part of returning from vacation (besides going back to work) is doing laundry. Each stain is a memory of a joyous time that is now over.
However, it's nice when all the clothes smell like Bounce dryer sheets instead of sweat and sunblock.

Below is the first of a 3-part exploration of popular skin care acids. Education is of utmost importance to me. An educated consumer is an empowered consumer.
Part 1 Benefits of the Top 5 Skin Care Acids
Part 2 Moisturizing Skin Care Acids
Part 3 What does pH have to do with a skin care acid’s effectiveness?
Part 1 -
When you think of having an acid applied to your face, do you envision a scene from a horror film? No worries. The ongoing application of low-intensity acids can be an integral part of an effective age and acne management home program.
Choosing an over the counter (OTC) or cosmetic product that contains Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) or Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHA) doesn’t have to be a daunting task.
There are 3 primary factors to consider when choosing a product that contains alpha or beta hydroxy acids.
Which acid will best fulfill my skin care needs?
What percentage of the active acid(s) should I use?
What is the pH of the product that the acid is delivered in?
What do AHAs and BHAs do for the skin? There are a variety of acids used in the skin care industry. Each acid has a different set of attributes. Let’s explore some of the benefits of acids most commonly used in cosmetics and OTC products.
Glycolic Acid is a very popular Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) derived from cane sugar. It is found in many skin care treatment products that focus on minimizing signs of aging and acne. Glycolic Acid:
Exfoliates the dead skin cell layer, encouraging oil and dead skin cells to be released from the skin
Decreases fine lines and wrinkles
Attracts water into the skin (hydrophilic)
Helps dull, tired skin to be replaced with fresh, glowing skin
Decreases hyperpigmentation (discoloration) for a more even skin tone
Smooths and softens skin’s texture
Glycolic’s small molecule size allows deeper penetration which unclogs follicles and dissolves the dead skin cell build up in pores (blackheads)
IGOG Skin Care products that contain Glycolic Acid:
No. 10 Organic Illuminating Serum
No. 19 Organic Brightening Moisturizer
No. 20 Organic Gravity Defying Moisturizer
No. 22 Creamy Smoothing Moisturizer
No. 26 Organic Multi-Acid Mask (coming soon)
Lactic Acid is a fabulous AHA used to brighten and smooth the skin. Lactic Acid is derived from milk. Lactic acid:
Is easily tolerated by many because it is less sensitizing
Lightens hyperpigmentation (discoloration)
Brightens skin
Smooths texture
Exfoliates tired, dull skin cells
IGOG Skin Care Products that contain Lactic Acid:
No. 20 Organic Gravity Defying Moisturizer
No. 22 Creamy Smoothing Moisturizer
Kojic Acid is a pigment fighting wonder that is derived from fermented rice and Japanese Reishi mushrooms. Kojic Acid works to inhibit the production of melanin in your skin. Melanin is the substance that gives your skin its dark color when exposed to sun, inflammation (acne) or hormonal changes (melasma pregnancy mask). The more melanin you produce, the darker your skin becomes. If you have unwanted dark spots (hyperpigmentation) including Kojic Acid in your skin care routine can help even-out your skin’s color.
IGOG Skin Care Products that contain Kojic Acid include:
No. 10 Organic Illuminating Serum
No. 19 Organic Brightening Moisturizer
Retinoic Acid (RA) is a derivative of Vitamin A. RA has proven its worth in anti-aging skin care circles in both prescription form (Tretinoin, Retin-A, Renova, Refissa) and in cosmetic and OTC preparations (Retinol). Non-prescription retinol is tolerated by skin better than prescription retinoids, which tend to come with irritating side effects. There is a wealth of research to back up retinol’s anti-aging benefits.
Retinoic Acid (RA) adds structure and thickness the skin to fill in fine lines and wrinkles
RA brightens the skin by exfoliating dull, tired surface cells
Encourages healthy cell function
Functions as an antioxidant which limits free-radical damage
Fights hyperpigmentation (discoloration)
Improves pore function which helps enlarged, clogged pores purge their dead skin cell lining, returning pores to their genetically-determined size
All forms of vitamin A break down and deteriorate when repeatedly exposed to air and light. Buy retinol products in opaque, airless dispensing bottles like those that we use at IGOG Skin Care!
If you are just starting to use a retinol treatment, start slowly, allowing your skin to get used to this potent ingredient.
IGOG products that contain Retinol:
No. 4 Exfoliating Mini-Peel Pads
No. 9 Organic Retinol Serum
No. 20 Organic Gravity Defying Moisturizer
Salicylic Acid is a Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) that is derived from acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). Like AHAs, BHAs act as an exfoliant. The shedding of dead skin cells allows fresh cells to rise to the skin’s surface. BHAs are a lipid (oil) soluble molecule allowing penetration into pores that contain sebum (oil), helping to exfoliate the pore itself. This makes BHAs particularly useful to oily, acne-prone skin. Salicylic acid is usually well tolerated. This BHA inhibits inflammation, and is less likely to make users sensitive to the sun than Glycolic Acid. Those sensitive to aspirin should consult their physician before topical use.
Willow Bark Extract is a source of natural BHA, polyphenols and flavonoids. Willow Bark Extract may contribute effects similar to those seen from synthetic salicylic and can be used in organic formulations. Salicylic acid:
Is a keratolytic = Exfoliant
Is anti-inflammatory
Inhibits the formation of comedo (acne)
Restricts the growth of bacteria
Is capable of penetrating and breaking down sebum plugs (blackheads) opening/clearing clogged pores
Shrinks and tightens pores
Reduces appearance of wrinkles
Smooths skin
Helps to manage Keratosis Pilaris (KP) which shows up as rough bumps of dry skin on arms, thighs buttocks and cheeks
Reduces hyperpigmentation (discoloration)
Over-the-counter limits are set at 2% - 3% for topical preparations
pH of 3 or 4 will bring maximum benefits
IGOG Skin Care Products that contain Salicylic Acid:
No. 4 Exfoliating Mini-Peel Pads
No. 10 Organic Illuminating Serum
No. 26 Organic Multi-Acid Mask (coming soon)
Precautions:
If you use an acid in your skin care routine, you must be diligent in use of an effective sun block! Acids can make your skin more vulnerable to the sun’s rays, even days after you stop using them. Sun damage and burns can occur if you are not properly protected. Wear your sunblock and re-apply regularly!
Both AHAs and BHAs can cause irritation including redness, burning, flaking or itching if used in high concentrations with a low pH. It is best to do a test patch over a small area to make sure your skin can tolerate skin care acids. Ramp up usage starting with use a few times per week and increase as tolerated.
Consult your doctor before using AHA/BHA containing products if you are pregnant or breast feeding.
Darker skinned individuals may be at risk for scarring and loss of pigment (hypopigmentation) when using strong-level acids.
Consult a skin care professional to determine if Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids are appropriate for you.

At Dhammayangyi… Thana'kha Beauty
Just as it was during the time of the temple builders, thana'kha bark powder is the universal cosmetic for Burmese beauties. The women and children of Burma paint their faces with thana'kha, a sweet scented, straw-colored powder made from the bark and roots of the sandalwood shrub. There is a particular recipe for adding water and making the cosmetic into a moist paste. It is applied with the fingers, and a good deal of skill is required to put on just the right amount. Unpracticed hands often smear on far too much, while on others it is barely visible. The Burmese use thana'kha to call out their beauty and protect it from the harshness of the sun. I am not aware that any other people use the thana'kha.
No Dhammayangyi…
Assim como era durante o tempo dos construtores dos templos, o pó da casca de sândalo Thanaka ou Thana’kha é o cosmético universal para as belezas Birmanêsas. As mulheres e as crianças de Burma pintam seus rostos com thana'kha, pó da cor da palha, tem um cheiro doce, feito da casca e das raízes do arbusto do sândalo. Há uma receita particular para adicionar água e transformar o cosmético numa pasta úmida. É aplicado com os dedos, e uma grande habilidade é exigida para aplicar somente a quantia correta. Mãos sem pratica, freqüentemente sujam e borram tudo, enquanto em outros ficam mal visivéis. A Birmanêsa usa a thana'kha para acentuar a sua beleza e para proteger a pele da aspereza do sol. Eu desconheço qualquer outra civilização que use a thana'kha.

Eclipse day gathering at a friend's farm. I would have put more people and chairs into the picture, except that while I was sketching, someone announced that the partial phase was about to begin. Everybody quickly picked up their chairs, hastily applied sunblock, and relocated to the sunny side of the house.
The guy in this picture happened to be holding his phone talking to a friend somewhere else when I captured him. One of the novel aspects of this eclipse was being able to text people who were watching it elsewhere. Got updates about what the Oregon branch of the family was experiencing before it reached us in South Carolina.
And BTW, he's wearing normal sunglasses at this point, not eclipse glasses.

This is a Fountain in the Heart of the Downtown Tampa Florida Concrete Jungle. I just goosed up the Saturation until the Color Noise took over !
This Fountain Fountain is locate in the Center of Downtown Tampa on a Patio Hidden by the Tall Buildings around it. Unfortunately, I didn't record the exact location, however a Google search turned up a Photo of the Fountain (unaltered) by Commercial Photographer, Andrew Rodgers who had a list of Prints Priced according to Picture size.
See:
fineartamerica.com/featured/tampa-florida-downtown-founta...
Next time I visit downtown Tampa, I will verify the exact location of the Fountain and update this narrative. I think this is William F. Poe Plaza.
Having way too much fun preparing for the Pipeline competition! P.S. The color on his face looks weird because its smothered in sunblock.
Last one from this sunrise location. Thought I would try something a bit different for me and hide the sun behind the base of the speed marker at Teignmouth.
Not entirely sure it has worked with the angle of the shadow,good excuse to go and try it again maybe :)
