My wife has some minor problems with skin blemishes. She thinks they're life threatening, life as she knows it I should add. I play it down. She goes to the dermatologist for advice. Well, this time the dermatologist prescribed some ointments, a Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing Bar and tetracycline antibiotic pills. She's been following his suggested regimen for about a week. I scrub her back and help her with other areas. She says she can see an improvement. Well, I can't. Oh, perhaps a grid could be laid over her back and face and a point count might show a slight difference, but my casual glance can't pick out a significant change.
All is fine. I'm pulling for her to look just as beautiful as she wants. After all, she's my wife. Meanwhile, her eagle eye has turned to my face. Ah, hah! She sees pimples and blackheads and dirty skin. So the daily skin care now includes the scrubbing and cleansing of my skin and she is now talking about having me get a facial. Hmmmmm. Well, that's just something I've not considered doing and I'm looking for a way around it. She suggests that I should do it for her. I tell her that men don't get facials, not real men anyway. At the moment, it seems to be a standoff. Well, to avoid the facial, I've now been doing the nightly routine with the ointments and Cetaphil Bar. You know, I'd say there is an improvement. It's small but my face seems cleaner and less oily. I'm mildly impressed. Here's hoping enough future improvement will come out of it to avoid that facial appointment.
