My Holy Grail Skincare Products
I am a skincare junkie. A devotee of the Korean’s 10 step skincare routine. Well I used to be, you know 10 step is quite a number (I’ll say) don’t get me wrong, it had been a great help in improving my skin.
10 step isn’t practical for everyday. So I narrowed down products and just put on what my skin needs each day. Lets say if I am breaking out, I’ll put on products with tea tree or with aloe vera to calm the skin. If I have redness/irritations I will use products with Azelaic acid or Niacinamide… If I am having a good skin day that’s when I pile up on skin care coz there’s no irritants along the way and keep the glow going.😉
Here are the products that had and still help improve my skin and that i will repurchase over and over…
First step is the most Crucial of them all. Double-Cleanse (triple if you could)…
For Cleansing
Ponds washable cold cream in red or blue, both are really good and does the job.
Cleansing Balms are equally good also, I like the Banila co. clean it zero
Cleansing Pads: Cosrx, Neogen
Cleansing Oils: perfect for removing mascaras and lippies (most cleansing oils deliver the same) but i like the..The body shop & bjfesta ones coz it doesn’t sting my eye even when I am still wearing my contacts on..ÜÜÜ
FACIAL WASH/FOAM
My OG facial wash. Etude wonder pore. They said don’t exfoliate everyday (coz this one have micro-bits)
Well my skin can take it but I still used other facial wash to alternate.(—not recommended for dry skin )
I love Cosrx with Salicylic acid also (I finished it all up and right now I’m trying out a new facial wash)
For Day Time
Very VITAL in the mornings Sunscreen for the face&body.
These two from BIORE are the best for oily skin coz its not greasy at all,and very light-weight👌
Tone-up
Fave toners: Etude: wonder pore, dear klairs: supple preparation facial toner
maintainance
Corx: Snail Mucin, Innisfree: Green tea serum, Nature Republic: Aloe Vera Gel
Exfoliate girls…
Use AHA, BHA and/or facial scrubs atleast once or twice a week..Ü
I love these… Cosrx AHApowerliquid , Pixi Glow tonic, Etude Baking Powder scrubs
Masking…ÜÜÜ
MIST:
Mist: Mario Badescu
My skin likes anything with Aloe but totally loves Rosewater….
For spot correct.
Cosrx pimple patch, The bodyshop Teat Tree Oil (MUST-HAVE), new discovery😉 PAIR (Japanese brand)
Bare-faced…. Its not perfect (I know) but its been better. 😊
Before I learned about skincare my skin was in its bad state, this was when I started to I enjoy putting makeup on. Where BB creams, CC creams, foundations even, that I pile on to cover, because I’m having zits after zits.. unknowingly caused by those junks that I put on my skin which clogs my pores. So Ladies (Gentlemen also.Ü) I’ll say it again double-cleanse, triple if you could. Just find products that your skin enjoys.
Just a disclaimer. Every skin is different, even when both are oily, products may still vary…..
I know its scary to test out new products after another but its the only way to find out what works well on your skin. To know which ingredients to stay away from and ingredients you want to sink your skin into.🥰
I am testing out these two new products. So far nothing bad had happened..😉 hopefully..I’ll get all the benefits.. (coz both products are pricey) hihiÜ
wish me luck…….
