My Skincare Routine

Hi! Since I have nothing to do right now so I figure I should blog about my skincare routine. I actually do not have a fixed skincare routine, I change according to the condition of my face, if I am lazy or not, if I am rushing or not.. those really affect how my routine goes 😂 But of course there are certain products that I will definitely use like cleanser and lotion.

So I will start off by stating my skin type again (I mentioned in my previous post). I have oily, dehydrated, acne prone and sensitive skin. Do note that what am I using might work or not work for you as everybody has different skin type.

AM ROUTINE 
Cleanser - The Bare Skin Rose Foam Cleanser
Lotion - Hada Labo Premium Hydrating Lotion
Serum - ZarZou Brightening & Hydrating Facial Serum
Gel moisturizer - Guardian Aloe Vera Gel
Moisturizer - Happy Mask Happy Sleeping Mask (Vitamin & Berry Complex)
Sunscreen - Vanicream Broad Spectrum Sunscreen

I start off the morning by cleansing my face with TBS Rose Foam Cleanser, it was given by my bf. I love using this just because the fact that it is a foam cleanser and I can use it right away after pumping it out without having to lather it up. I just bought another soap cleanser that I am so excited about! I will blog abit it soon, stay tune! After cleansing, I wipe my face with tissue paper (more hygienic). While the face is still a little damp, I apply Hada Labo lotion to my face just by using my hands, don't want to waste it on cotton 🤷‍♀️ I apply 2-3 layers to make sure to get enough hydration. Then go on to ZarZou serum, I put 2-3 drops on my face and apply onto my face. For another layer of hydration, I apply Aloe Vera gel before sealing with the moisturizer. Lastly, I apply Vanicream sunscreen. As this sunscreen is a little too thick and it leaves a white cast on the face. So now I mix the sunscreen with a lighter moisturizer - Vanicream Lite Lotion.

PM ROUTINE
Oil cleanser - Biore Cleansing Oil
Cleanser - TBS Rose Foam Cleanser
Lotion - Laneige Cream Skin Refiner
Lotion 2 - Hada Labo Premium Hydrating Lotion
Serum - The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion
Gel moisturizer - Guardian Aloe Vera Gel
Moisturizer - Vanicream Lite Lotion / Physiogel Calming Relief Cream

I learned to double cleanse since last year and I think it made my pores cleaner. If you never heard of the term double cleanse, it actually means washing your face with an oil-based cleanser first then wash again with your usual cleanser. You may Google it to know more. Or I shall talk about it in my next post. So after double cleanser, I will pour some Laneige CSR onto the cotton and wipe my face to make sure my skin is clean++. After that, I will apply Hada Labo lotion for few more layers than the AM routine based on how I'm feeling that time. If I'm not lazy I will probably do 7 layers. Next is TO Serum, I only take 2 drops and apply evenly to my face. I don't apply TO Serum everyday because it is a strong serum so whenever I'm using it I will use Physiogel as moisturizer to prevent dryness. On days when I'm not using the serum, I use apply Vanicream lotion.

Phew, is troublesome being a girl eh? Need to take care of our skin and stuff. Lots of money spent on skincare. As you know I love buying skincare, I actually still have a lot of products that I did not mention. Maybe next post. This is just too long and I'm just blogging with my phone right now 😂

That's all for today, HAPPY SATURDAY! 💫❤
