Pamper yourself with papaya

As far as beauty routines go, mine tends to be minimalistic: Cetaphil and cold water. But last night when I was out grocery shopping, I had a hankering for a face mask. Because it was late, and I couldn't make a trip to the drug store, I had to go with what was availible at the grocery store. The pickings were slim, but I bought Alba's Papaya Enzyme mask for $11.

When I got home, I immediately washed my face and slathered on a thin coating of the cool, light, green, slimy gel all over my face and neck. Unlike other chemical peels I've tried, Alba's papaya enzymes felt gentle. Five minutes later, I washed the masked off (which admittedly took some doing), but my face looked immediately more youthful and refreshed. Usually, I shy away from the natural beauty products at the grocery store, but sometimes necessity is the mother of good fortune.
