This is mostly a bit of middle-of-the-night (slightly odd) rambling and suchlike.

First of all, I don't think my facial moisturiser is working anymore. This is a bit distressing as I tend to have dry/sensitive skin. I've been using Eucerin's "Extra Protective Moisture Lotion" (meant for sensitive facial skin) but my face has been very dry lately and I have a stubborn patch on one side that is particularly dry. I've been applying moisturiser far more often than I usually do (and feeling a bit like Lady Cassandra with all her cries of "Moisturise me!") and it doesn't seem to be helping. Any suggestions?

Secondly (and completely unrelated), I'm going to be doing a bit of icon "spring cleaning" (never mind that it's summer) as I've been saving all sorts of lovely icons to my hard drive but haven't been able to use any of them because I have no iconspace. My overly-texty first attempts at icons will probably be the first to go as well as ones I hardly use, but if there are one or two of the lot you'd like me to keep, please comment with the icon. ^_^

Thirdly, quiz time! Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] nentari:


Your Score: Orpheus


33% Extroversion, 66% Intuition, 100% Emotiveness, 90% Perceptiveness



You are an artist, an aesthete, a sensitive, and someone who has never really let go of that childlike innocence. To you, all of life has a sense of wonder in it, and the story of Orpheus was written about someone just like you.

When the Argo passed the island of the Sirens, Orpheus played a song more beautiful than the Sirens to prevent the crew from becoming enticed. When his wife died, he ventured into the underworld to charm Hades but, in his naivete, he looked back becoming trapped there.

You can capture your unique world view and relate it to others with the skill of a master storyteller. Your sensitivity and creativity make you a treasure to the human race, but your thin-skinned nature and innocence can cause you a lot of disenchantment and pain. What's doubly unfortunate is that, if you try to lose those traits, you never will, and everyone will be able to tell that you're putting up an artificial shell to prevent yourself from being hurt.

Hmm, interesting.

And that's all for tonight, methinks.
