It’s been quite a while since I last wrote here! Been really busy with school… I’m in the last week of school for the term and the projects and presentations are driving me crazy. So I’ve decided to take a breather by showing you guys my updated skincare regime as of the month of November! Below are just some of the products that I find myself grabbing most often.
I wash cleanse my face at least twice a day but with more emphasis on my night routine as I do wear a bit of make-up every day. I’ll talk about the products in terms of how I use them.
CLEANSING
In the morning, I use LUSH’s Let the Good Times Roll facial cleanser which is made of maize flour, polenta and corn oil. It’s 100% natural and preservative-free. This cleanser debuted last Christmas and I instantly fell in love with it. Angels on Bare Skin used to be my holy grail cleanser but THIS, beats AOBS hands down for me. The smell is just so yummy too – and it stays on the skin! Since I’m done with my Shu Uemura cleansing oil, I now use Bioderma’s Sensibio H20 to remove my make-up and cleanse my skin at night. It’s an all-in-one product that’s really gentle and soap-free. It doesn’t remove waterproof make-up like mascara that well though, so you might have to use another eye make-up remover. However, I seldom use mascara so this works well for me.
TONING & MOISTURIZING
I use LUSH’s Eau Roma Water mostly both day and night nowadays. Sometimes, I use the Breath of Fresh Air in the morning, depending on my mood. I’ve been using BOFA for almost 1.5 years and recently fell in love with Eau Roma Water. It’s made of just lavender water and rose water – so it’s really gentle, calming and soothing. For moisturizer, I’ve been using Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream both day and night. It’s a wonderful product that is not overrated (I must say).
SERUMS & EYE CREAM
I must admit that I do not use the two travel sized samples of Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery and Dark Spot Corrector every night. But when I do use the Midnight Recovery, I wake up with dewy skin. The Dark Spot Corrector worked for my stubborn blemishes which I wanted to clear. So, I definitely would recommend these two products. For eye cream, I’ve been using Kiehl’s Line-reducing Eye-brightening Concentrate which has vitamin C. I love this but I won’t use it every night as well. I want to try Kiehl’s Avocado eye cream soon.
SUNSCREEN
I cannot emphasize my LOVE for this sunscreen from Kiehl’s! It’s really ultra light like what the name says, Ultra Light Daily UV Defense. I use this product every single day after my morning skincare regime. It feels really good. I hate products that make my skin feel greasy in the day and this works really awesome! I have been recommending this to all my friends and family. Definitely repurchasing this after I’m done with my current one. It is a little pricey for a sunscreen but it’s totally worth your money.
Hope you liked this post. Still on the lookout to try more skincare products and see what works best for my skin! 🙂 Let me know if I should try any skincare products that you highly recommend! 🙂
