Before and After: Week Two!

Okay, so it's been one week since I've used the Baiden Mitten for the first time!  Since then I have learned more about this mitten and what it does.  First off, I'm pretty sure it made the back part of my neck break out.  Don't let that discourage you though, honestly, with all the sweating you do you really have to make sure you rinse off completely, and I may not have done that.  Not only that but usually I rinse with cold water after a shower of such to close my pores to help prevent this and I didn't do that the first time.  That's the only bad news I have to offer and it's already gone as well.  Ready for the good news?  Since I've used my Baiden Mitten, I've noticed my skin absorbs so much more now!  I use Dove gentle exfoliating body wash with NutriumMosture.  Honestly, before the Baiden Mitten, it's the only thing that has remotely worked on hydrating my skin.  So, every time I jump into the shower now, my skin just takes everything in like a vacuum!  It stays hydrated longer as well because of this!  I'm so impressed with that!

Now to this weeks results!  First I want to note that I probably should have taken the rolled skin pictures again.  Not only did I produce dead skin but MORE of it than last time.  You read that right, MORE.  I couldn't believe it!  I figure that after a while the dead skin would decrease, but it didn't.  My skin again is ten times softer than before I used it, and I can't stop touching my face, arms, and my belly (even with the mommy marks!)  My legs are going to need the most help because of the KP, because that's where I have it the worst.  My arms are almost completely free of any signs of KP so that has to be a good sign as well.  After all I'm only two weeks into this and still have two more to go for the first month.  Remember the claim?  One month and I should have the skin I've always wanted!  Even if it doesn't get rid of my Kp after four uses, I'm not going to give up that it could work for it.  I'm going to start using it twice a week after the first month: Mondays and Thursdays.  I figure since I use exfoliation all the time on my skin anyways, I can start doing two times a week after a month.

So, honestly I'm not seeing too much of a difference in general about my face.  You would be able to feel the difference though because it is A LOT smoother than it was before.  Other than that, I feel I have more color to my face, which is a good thing.

Again, not too much of a difference.  I feel my face looks smoother than the before and you can see where the pimple scar I had below my lip has lightened up. Never a bad thing.

This is the biggest improvement this time, my lips! They have a better color, don't look nearly as chapped, if even at all, they also seem to have plumped up.  Added bonus there!

So, just like with my face the major difference is the way my skin feels.  A lot smoother again, and I'm really happy about that.  The KP seems to be almost gone on my arms, so I'm just worried about my legs now!

Now, the major thing I noticed about my tummy is the color of the stretch marks.  They seem to be more red than before.  If you're thinking this is a bad thing, it's not.  When your stretch marks are still red that is the best time to use creams to reduce or get rid of them because they're fresh.  When they turn white, they're like scar tissue and all those lotions and such won't help nearly as much.  So, this is a good thing!

I'm sorry that the blog seems to have made this picture so tiny!  The top part is the inside of my left leg and the bottom is the outside of my left leg.  You can still see I have KP on the outside but not as much on the inside.  I think with some patients I can get it under control!

And the angry red dot on my back side.. still looks just as angry!  I think I'll have my doc take a look at it. lol

Okay, so what do you ladies and gents think?  Two more weeks to go and I'll be going to two times a week.  I think I'll be rid of KP doing that.  When I go to two times a week I'll still only be doing a once a week blog of before and afters unless asked by popular demand!  I would also like to note that my hubby is noticing the difference in my skin from before the Baiden Mitten to the after, that is awesome to think it's not all in my head! :)
