At least, in an ideal world I’d certainly be able to post cartoons every week and be forced to find other days for actual content. 😉

I’ve finally gotten a chance to draw a chibi cartoon of a client, so now there’s examples of someone other than me in all 3 styles. This is Camille Reigle, who’s still putting her Etsy shop together, but I’ll be sure to send you over there when she’s got it ready. She knits awesome stuff (and is kind enough to make special non-wool things for me!)

And then we have the sort of thing I draw when I’m idle, and then make into a Valentine.

If you’d like to prevent more of this sort of thing in the future, feel free to volunteer to Be a Cartoon yourself! The price is going up March 1, so get it while it’s still cheap.

I usually just do my VPAs on Havi’s Blog, but I already did one and when this one came to me in the shower, I wanted to share it with a different audience.

Wanted: Face Wash

I’m looking for a new way to wash my face. While I love the facial cleansing oil I use now, using it takes up too much time and energy at a time when I’m usually at a low ebb. My new favorite face wash needs to:

• Be great for combination skin
• Be something quick and easy to use in the shower
• Clean pores, and it would be a bonus if there was also pore shrinking
• Neither dry out my face nor add too much oil
• Be hypo-allergenic, non-comedogenic, and generally very gentle
• Bonus if it active helps with acne and/or exfoliation
• Not require I use it more than once a day
• Not require extra products to make it awesome
• Not contain any of the following
• Mango
• Pomegranate
• Passion Fruit
• Pineapple
• Papaya
• Guava
• Tomato
• Papain
• Lanolin
• Preferably be mostly natural, for all that
• Not be crazy expensive, though a bit pricey is okay if a little goes a long way
• Smell awesome, or not like much of anything at all, but especially not be perfumey

I’d also love to find a moisturizer that doesn’t give me zits, but as I have never seen such a mythical product before, I’m not gonna hold my breath.

Reading this list it sounds a bit like I’m always battling the zits for my life, but it’s really not true — I’d just like to go from few to very few, y’know? I’m 36, I shouldn’t be dealing with this crap still.

Anyway, if anyone has any recommendations, I’d love to hear them!
