Seven Days...

No, I promise that I am not doing another one of those prompt things (today...). I am simply sharing some useful information that... scared the life out of me!

Sometimes I feel like I have oppositional defiance disorder. It's where you don't like doing the things that people tell you to. Like brushing your teeth (I ALWAYS do it, I sometimes just don't like to... TMI, I know). This also applies to washing my face at night, until...

One night, we were getting ready for bed, and my roommate was washing her face and I said something like "yeah... I probably ought to do that..."(Note: I generally wash my face in the mornings in the shower, and rarely wear any foundation/base/blush/etc makeup, so I feel like I don't have that much to wash off.)

Then she told me the scariest thing ever:

"EVERY TIME YOU DON'T WASH YOUR FACE AT NIGHT, YOU ADD SEVEN DAYS TO THE AGE OF THE SKIN ON YOUR FACE!"

Holy Hannah, are you terrified? I was! That means that if you skip a whole week you'd add almost 50 days to your face. That's a lot. Enough to scare me into washing my face.

Mostly because I don't want this to happen to me:

For some validity: My roommate heard this from our former roommate who is a public health major. It's for real!
