Do you have sensitive skin? If your skin gets red easily, or you have a hard time finding products that don't irritate your skin, you might have sensitive skin. The best type of cleanser for you to use would be a creamy cleanser. Foaming cleansers have lathering ingredients that are known to irritate sensitive skin. Also, any fragrances in your products can make the sensitivity worse. Using mineral make-ups and fragrance-free products will make a big difference. Jane Iredale is a mineral make-up that is amazing and will not cause breakouts or irritation.

Cute Pictures
Here are more adorable pictures for your viewing pleasure.
Jake's favorite resting spot:
I can't remember what he was upset about, but he looks so cute:
Ryan and Jenna in their new jammies. They are so cute!
Ryan is taking something from Jenna (like usual), look at her face!
HAHA! I got it back!
This isn't great picture quality, but you can see how big Jake is getting:
Jake always "sits" on my lap when I am on the floor, but since I was busy taking pictures, he decided that Jenna's lap was just as good. I don't think Jenna thought so:
Macey and Heidi have been at Disneyland and California Adventures all weekend, and they have been having a blast! Scott's parents bought them Disney Princess dresses to wear to Disneyland, so they have been walking around with those dresses and tattooed arms all week! Priceless! Macey even went on Space Mountain. Princess dress, half-sleeve, Space Mountain. My kids rock. Hopefully I will have a slide-show up soon of their weekend. I miss them so much, I cannot wait to see them tonight.

Skin Care Tip of the Week
It takes 90 days for a blemish to reach the surface of the skin, and another 90 days for it to heal if it has been "picked" at. When you pick or pop your blemishes, it causes infection to infiltrate the surrounding tissues, and your body treats it as it does any other wound. Picking your blemishes can also cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is a dark that is hard to get rid of. So don't pick your face! If you have blemishes that you just cannot keep your hands off of, see an esthetician (ME!!!) who can extract them the correct way without causing infection.
I am having so much fun doing treatments on my friends and family! If you are unsure that you want to come in for facial treatments, keep in mind that I can also do airbrush tanning, eyelash perming, eyelash and eyebrow tinting, back treatments, make-up application, and waxing. There are tons of fun options, and I know that a lot of you ladies deserve to be pampered. Email (sajacobs1@cox.net) or call me if you want more info.

Disneyland!!!
Macey and Heidi are on fall break this week, so Scott's dad and step-mom are taking them to Disneyland for four days. The last time we went Heidi was only 2, so she doesn't really remember it. Here is a video of them reacting to the news that they are going to Disneyland.
The weather has been absolutely gorgeous! We have been taking advantage of the beautiful weather and no school this week by playing outside as much as possible. The girls still love to ride their quads around, and Scott and I can't help but enjoy them too.
Our neighbor Dallas loves the twins and likes to give them rides in her Jeep.
I don't know about you, but I would do just about anything to have my kids play with my hair. It feels so good! Last night I wasn't feeling very good, so Macey gave me a "face massage", foot massage, and neck massage, and Heidi did my hair. He are some pictures of Heidi's finished masterpiece.

Skin Care Tip of the Week
I'm a little late on this, sorry. It's been a crazy week! Like I posted before, Ryan fell out of his crib and then Jenna's ear drum ruptured from an ear infection that she had absolutely zero symptoms from. Poor baby, she was suffering in silence without even a fever.
Do you know what the A, B, and C stand for in UVA, UVB, and UVC? A stands for aging, B stands for burning, and C stands for cancer. It is very important to wear a broad spectrum sunscreen that will protect you from the different UV rays. In a lot of tanning salons, they will tell you that their beds emit mostly UVB rays, so you won't burn as easy. But you will be subjected to a lot of UVA rays, so if you tan in tanning beds, wear a tanning lotion that has a sunscreen in it to protect your skin from those damaging and pesky UVA rays.
It is sometimes hard to find a sunscreen for your face that is not greasy. I have two sunscreens from the Image line that are awesome! One is oil-free, and the other is organic. If you are interested in either of these, let me know. They are really great products, and they don't feel oily under my make-up.
Thank you to everyone who has come in and gotten treatments from me! It is amazing how much your skin can heal from just one treatment. I can't wait to see what we can do for your beautiful faces.

Baby Jail
Our little monkey boy Ryan gave us quite a scare yesterday when he climbed out of his crib and landed on his head. He's doing better today, but now he knows that he can get out! We bought a crib tent to put on his crib, and it is so funny. He looks like a little inmate.
I know that I have been lacking in the picture department lately, so here are some cute random pics of the kiddos.

Up to no good in the pantry
Sweet Macey

Macey loves her babies!
Scott and Ryan
My little cupcake
Sweetest girl in the world. She does this new thing now when she really loves someone, she pats them on the back. We call it the "Heidi Back-Pat", and you are really special if you get one.
I know it's not nice to take pictures of babies when they are sad, but he has such a cute sad face. He was really upset because Scott, Macey, and Heidi went to the store and he didn't get to go. Look at his face; his soul hurt!
