I've always been interested into beauty. I've been practicing putting make up on since I was in middle school. Later, when I got into my twenties, I discovered youtube beauty gurus who I still adore to watch time to times. Trying out different products by the recommendations of my favorite gurus, I've found the skin care routine that is the best for my skin type,,for now.. I have dry combination skin type as well as sensitive. I like to separate my morning and evening skin care routine where I include spy products in my morning routine and more intense products for my evening routine.
My morning routine includes:
1) Dior creme de rose lip balm
After I wash my face I always put on my lip balm. That is because my lips are very very dry and sensitive. I've never seen any person who has drier and more sensitive lips than I have. This lip balm has been my savior. I've discovered this product from my favorite you tube guru
all that glitters 21 and since then this has been my holy grail. This one also promises to plump your lips but to be honest, I haven't seen the result of plumping but it feels heavenly (rose petals) and feels luxurious on your lips.
2) Kiehl's ultra facial toner
I put generous amount of this on the large cotton pad that is from target and sweep off all my grease that has built up on my face overnight. I find this toner refreshing and at the same time moisturizing.
3)Kiehl's ultra facial cream
I adore this cream.. I use this on my face in the winter as well as in the summer. This moisturizer has saved my super-duper sensitive skin when I used to break out like crazy back in 2001. Since then I've been using this product on regular basis. I find this product very moisturizing even in the winter and it is also a good product under the make up if I let it sink on my skin for at least 10 minute before applying the make up.
P.S. I don't use any cleanser on my face for the morning as my face is very sensitive and therefore I do not like to irritate it unnecessary.
My night kin care routine combines:
1) Shiseido FT Senganseka hypoallergenic perfect oil facial cleansing oil
This oil removes all of my make up from my face even my waterproof mascara and eyeliner. For the affordable price 13.89 US dollars, it is a very good deal comparable with mac one. All you need is two or three pumps of this oil, massage it gently all over your face and especially your eye area then put little bit of water and keep rubbing it on your face then follow by rinsing with water and your favorite cleanser.
2) Kiehl's gentle foaming facial cleanser
3) Dior creme de rose lip balm
As I mentioned above, I put the most attention on my super sensitive dry lips..
4) Kiehl's ultra facial toner
5) Kiehl's midnight recovery cream
I used to consume estee lauder one before I found out that it was actually irritating my eye area. I haven't really seen the results yet, considering that I have no wrinkle (I'm using it as preventative solution), but it is very hydrating.
6) Kiehl's midnight recovery concentrate
I have heard lots of good things about this serum so I recently decided to try it out. So far I really like it on my face.
7) Korres vitamin C wild rose Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial
The moment I saw wild rose as a main ingredient I decided to purchase it. Soon I found out that I actually really like this product not mentioning of the fabulous smell. This one hydrates my skin as well as it evens out my skin tone.
