Here are all the things I used this month. I tried a couple of new protein products to get more protein into my eating plan. I have been dealing with low and high blood sugar issues because of the Prednisone, so I have been finding creative ways to keep them up. Protein bars work because you have to eat a protein with the carb in order to not have a sugar crash. I have a couple of them I like and I will be purchasing more.
Skin care became a wonderful thing this month. I am glad that I established a good habit. Prednisone messes with the skin and causes it to break and make wounds, so the zinc I take and the sheet masks and moisturizer I use all has helped my skin feel so much better. I purchased more sheet masks for a dollar a piece from an on-line dollar store place that I found. I have not tried them yet, but I am looking forward to trying them out. I loved the experience of ordering from the dollar store type place and getting good products. I am no longer able to go to the Dollar Tree so this is a huge blessing for me.
Below are the products I used:
*Small Spark Bright and Tight Sheet Mask: I received this in a subscription box. It was harder to put on than most I have gotten from other places. It feels nice on my skin after you figure out how to put the sucker on.
*Zone Perfect Cinnamon Roll Protein Bar: I got some protein bars to help with my low blood sugar issues. I had regular candy bars, does not work well when you are trying to lose weight. My blood sugars are now getting low at 37 at the lowest in the middle of the night, so I thought protein bars with good ingredients would be best for this. I got two different flavors. This one taste amazing. This has 14 grams of protein with the sugar of 17 grams. Perfect for low blood sugars.
*Zone Perfect Fudge Graham protein bar: Great for low blood sugars in the middle of the night. I like the cinnamon better.
*Facetory Sun Bae Soothing Sheet Mask: I have used this one before. I like it. Feels nice on my face.
*Farmacy Hydrating Coconut Gel Sheet Mask: I got this a while ago. I liked the texture of it and it went on nicely. Felt like a second layer on my skin.
*Pukka Night Time Organic Tea: I am struggling with sleep because of the steroids, so I am trying this tea. It tastes good for herbal tea.
*Plant Therapy Heart Chakra Essential Oil Blend: I’m sad this is gone. I have enjoyed using this. I will be purchasing again or making my own.
*Facetory Dream Garden Camellia Sheet Mask: I enjoy this one. I have done this one before. I love how it fits and it makes my face feel afterwards. Smells nice too.
*Kevita Master Brew Pineapple Peach Kombucha: since I am taking antibiotics and prednisone and other meds to repress my immune system, I needed to get more pre and pro biotics into my system. I am trying Kombucha tea that I found. This is a tasty blend. It does remind me of the giant bottle beers from my childhood of the men who drank in my life drank from.
*Sandawha Camelia Oil: Love this stuff. Feels nice on my skin.
*Dove Body Lotion for Sensitive Skin: This stuff is awesome. Feels so nice on my skin too.

*Facetory Moon Velvet Moisturizing Cream Sheet Mask: This has lotion in it I think. I saw it in clumps, and there was enough to put on my arms and neck. I usually rub the access on my neck and chest. This ones feels amazing on my face. With prednisone face I am truly valuing sheet masks and facial oils right now.
