someone requested it on formspring . :)
Well, I'm like any other girls who has regular breakouts whenever the big M comes or when
I do not have enough sleep... I mean I usually sleep very very late, often 2-3ish which is definitely
bad for the skin.
FYI, ahem ahem I'm only technically 18 because my birthday this year is still not over hahahahahha
so... I'm still undergoing a little of puberty, explains why sometimes I have very unsightly acne.
Currently, I have this very annoying pimple on my nose that has been there for SOOOOO DAMN LONG.
Ok here it goes :
1) Facial wash
I use any kind of facial wash actually hahahahhaaha. But, I have been using Neutrogena's deep
mild cleanser
It is available at alot of places but I frequently buy from Watsons whenever there is
a member promotion or like 20-30% off.. After discount, usually cost me about $6????
2)Make up remover
Just like my facial wash, I use almost any brands of the shelf .
Not someone who likes to splurge on skincare products like clarins, estee lauder and such
because my skin is still quite "young"??
Basically, I will tap a little on a small cotton pad and leave it on my eyes for about 5 seconds,
then swipe all the eye makeup away. Please only use it to remove eye and lip makeup because
I actually used to use this and swipe it all over my face, thinking it was okay...
Till I realized that I am doing it allll wronnggggg!!!
Also, the price is affordable :) Only cost about $9+ during promotions.
3) Milk cleanser.
Here's the next step after removing your eye makeup. Milk cleanser is used to remove your foundation, bb cream over your face. Girls who use BB Cream have to DEFINITELY use milk
cleanser to clean off. I actually got this advice from the beautician at my facial spa.
To be honest, BB cream is very bad for your face because it creates clogging and whiteheads.
Whiteheads are the worst thing you want to have because you can't remove it simply by squeezing
it out like blackheads, acne... You'll have to undergo laser treatment or some burning treatment that
facial spas have.. I'll blog about makeups that I use in another post :)
Although it states that it has alot benefits of bb cream.. Like spf, moisturizer.......
It is not advisible to use it.. Its just pure laziness because BB cream is all in one, it makes it easier
but I mean you shouldn't be lazy when it comes to taking care of your skin.
This can be bought at watsons similarly but it is a little expensive. $38 for a bottle???
BUT....HAHAHAHAHAHA I BUY WHEN THERE'S MEMBER PROMOTION AHHAHAHA
Have been using this milk cleanser ever since I started to apply makeup..
Its a must have because I usually need to put makeup for my assignments.
4) Moisturizer
My face tends to get a little oily sometimes so I often get moisturizers that are water based...
I prefer it when they tend to absorb in faster because I hate it when it becomes all sticky and oily.
This is the one I am using currently. It retails at watsons at $23. Very affordable.
It's a light moisturizer but there's no spf protection so you'll have to buy sunblock to apply
after applying this cream which lets me move on to the next product.
6) Sunblock
Another product that is water based.. This retails at about $38????
I started to apply sunblock just recently because alot alot alot of my working friends/beauticians
stress that sunblock is another MUST HAVE. Although I don't really go outdoors but indoor lighting
can also cause freckles under the eyes or on the face.. Thank god I am naturally born with no freckles.
However, even if it doesn't appear now, it will develop in the future if there is insufficient protection
from the lighting/sun. Haha this was a recommendation from Jaime!
7) Exfoliating cleanser
An exfoliating cleanser is the secret weapon of facial spas....After purchasing this product,
I did not have to visit the facial spas often . It removes all the dead skin cells around your face.
I exfoliate once a week, you're not suppose to exfoliate too often or else your skin will become
very sensitive... When it is sensitive, it gets a little difficult to buy facial products because
there is a wide range you can't use.
Retails at $50. Everywhere is the same price unless you have departmental store member cards.
I got mine from paris back then in june so it was about $35-$38 sgd.
Its cheaper there because it started out from paris.. so yea.
Oh by the way, loreal makeup/skincare is freaking cheap!!!
Loreal is from paris too.
8) Facial Masks
Frequently, I purchase hydrating or whitening masks.
I'll just usually stock up Neutrogena's hydrating mask or whitening mask whenever its on sale
at watsons. Only $1.75 per mask . Affordable again :)
I'm not someone who puts mask often... so I have been sticking to this routine ever since
I started to put makeup.
Alright, I hope I didn't miss anything else out... Anyway, I changed my blog's layout and
added hot black and white pictures of Miranda kerr. I love her to death . She is so gorgeous and down
to earth the same time, Orlando bloom is one lucky chap.
Added a chatbox at the corner, please leave NICE comments. I will not entertain any nonsense.
Oh oh!! nuffnang gave me an advert, so please whenever you visit....
