I got a great response from the creator saying: "Home Storage Solutions 101 Hey everyone, don't worry and overcomplicate this. I obviously need to do a bit more explanation of this notebook, and hopefully will be able to in the very near future up on the site. But until then know that basically the idea is just to get ready for all the organization printables you'll be receiving as you participate in the challenges. These printables can help you get organized, and a binder, notebook, whatever, is a nice handy place to place them all. If you want a sneak peak at some of the printables you'll be receiving you can check them out here: http://www.home-storage-solutions-101.com/how-to-get..."
This led me to realize I can use my old control journal I had from the flylady. If you are not familiar with the flylady you can view her page Here I had moved and got divorced so some of the information was old anyway, so I just cleaned out the old stuff and now I'm ready.
The second adventure was a funny and painful one. I decided to do a pin on a face mask peel to remove black heads and acne. I must say that it did succeed in that, but not without a lot of pain! The pin I'm referring to is the serious face mask peel pin found Here
It seemed simple enough. Just 2 ingredients so it couldn't be that bad. In fact my daughter was bored so we decided to do the face peel together. This was a blessing and a curse. So we mixed the ingredients together, heated it up in the microwave, and then applied the mixture to our faces. When we were done we looked pretty weird.
We then began the waiting game. This was actually the fun part because as it hardened it became hard to talk so we were just texting each other back and forth. Our faces felt like they were made of plastic by the time it had all dried. So then began the task of peeling the mask. Now the post says it is "somewhat painful," but I would say the pain was excruciating!!
In fact after only peeling a little off I told my daughter to just wash it off instead of subjecting herself to the torture of it all. I, on the other hand, didn't have that luxury as I was determined to see this through if anything as a public service against this pin.
After many screams, funny faces, and tears, I got it off. So what did I think? This is not a pin I would recommend, but if you do decide to try it please listen to these tips. #1 do NOT put this on your neck. That is what I did and that was by far the most painful to peel the mask from. #2 avoid the eyebrow area. If you don't then expect to lose some eyebrow hairs. #3 make sure your hair is completely pulled back and won't fall in your face during the application process. This stuff hardens fast and is hard to get out of hair so expect to lose some hair if this happens.
Warning: this mask is bad on sensitive skin and your face will be red after removing the mask.
I did not see much come off on the mask when I peeled it off except for hair. My daughter said she got quite a bit to come off on her mask. She also had some tips to not make the pain so bad but still get great results. To remove the mask, start to peel it off dry. Once started wet your face with very warm water, but don't burn your face. Apply a face soap of your choice and let it soak in about 30 seconds. Then remove the soap and the mask by rubbing your face with a warm wet washcloth. Repeat these steps again only rub with a cold wash cloth the second time. Last, apply a face moisturizer. This helps remove the sting of removal.
I did her steps after I had removed most of my mask dry. It even helped calm down my face when I did these steps to complete the process. All in all I would not recommend this pin to anyone. It did leave our faces feeling really soft, but I personally think there are other less painful ways to achieve the same result. Don't do it!
