Let's put it this way: I have more facial pigmentation than I thought!
Since I can't see anything up close without my reading glasses, putting makeup on properly and assessing my skin's condition has become increasingly difficult. I bought a beautiful Conair wall-mounted 7x mirror with a 10x spot in the corner. I have used a small magnifier before, especially to tweeze my brows, but this allows me to view my whole face at one time.
It's not that it's too bad, it's just that I can see things I didn't see before, like the pigmentation. Now I can work on that before it's bad. I was using the Clinique Even better once daily but I think I'll move it up to twice! I don't want to stare into that all the time and obsess over things most people can't even see, I just want to be able to keep an honest gauge on my skin and it's progress (or lack of)
