I had forgotten I had a tube of this stuff in my cabinet. I just read a bunch of glowing reviews on makeupalley.com and since my skin has been so oily and bumpy lately (clogged pores!) this seemed like a good solution. Maybe I’ll do this 3x a week and the aspirin mask 2x a week. All together it will end up costing me about ten cents per mask. Beat that, expensive skincare line!
It is freezing cold in SF right now. Brian told me it gets so cold here in the summer because of the hot air in the valley on the other side of the hills. Can someone explain how that works exactly?
My mint masque dries my skin out too much. You want it?
Sure! I have crazy oily skin (keeps me looking **young**).

My favorite! I only use it once a month though…hormones.
I find that those biore strips are great for blocked pores. Pulls the gunk right out.
From Wikipedia
Advection fog occurs when moist air passes over a cool surface by advection (wind) and is cooled. It is common as a warm front passes over an area with significant snowpack. It’s most common at sea when tropical air encounters cooler waters, or in areas of upwelling, such as along the California coast. The advection of fog along the California coastline is propelled onto land by one of several processes. A cold front can push the marine layer coastward, an occurrence most typical in the spring or late fall. During the summer months, a low pressure trough produced by intense heating inland creates a strong pressure gradient, drawing in the dense marine layer.

So basically inland heating causes the air inland to rise, which sucks cool air onto the coast. The air is cool because it passes over the cold waters offshore.
