I'm melting!!!
This summer heat = SWEAT!! I know there's a saying that 'ladies don't sweat', but dang...it's hot out there!
Lucky for me, when I was teaching in Japan, a Japanese girl friend of mine recommended 'blotting papers'. They're really thin, transparent sheets of rice paper. Some have a powdery surface on one side, but I prefer the ones that don't have that powde
ry substance on them. You just whip out a sheet, dab or blot the oily, greasy parts of your face (my problem area is my T-zone...esp. nose and forehead) and voila! No more shine! 
Several cosmetics companies now carry these blotting papers. I used 'Shisheido' in Japan and have tried The Body Shop's version a few years ago. I don't know if they still carry them though. I imagine they would.
They're great to carry with you in your purse or pocket.

About the Blog Author
City girl moves to the country, falls in love, and marries a farmer. She tries to incorporate her city ways with her new country lifestyle and blogs to keep in touch with friends, family & students who live far, far away :) Can this city girl go country? Watch as she learns all sorts of exciting things about life on the farm and in a small rural community. *UPDATE* We are now parents! Our baby girl was born on Nov. 11, 2008 (at 28 weeks gestation- 12 weeks premature, but she's quite the trooper)!!!
