This might sound a little silly, but I think I've finally figured out that proper sleep really does make a difference!

I know, I know... Obvious. Everyone knows that sleep matters. Yes! But I didn't realise just how much it really matters.

See, I've always had some really deep bags under my eyes. I'm talking BAGS! Black as sin and big. Partly, I blamed this on my poor skincare and on my poor skin, which has always been quite horrible, as well.

This week, though, I decided to run a little experiment on myself: sleep 9 hours every night. I didn't actually succeed at that, mind you, but I did come pretty close. I certainly slept much more than I usually do, and lo and behold, the bags are vanishing! My skin looks so much better it's crazy! Well, around my eyes, anyway... The rest of my skin continues to act up as usual. However, that particular aspect of my appearance has definitely been attenuated by my proper sleep.

It's amazing! A miracle!

Very good. I recommend proper sleep, based on these results.

I also just feel overall quite good.

I wore my corduroy pants, today.
