My skincare routine

Hi peeps. Today's post will be showing on skincare products that I use recently. I wouldn't say that this is the best I had ever use but this is my most updated regimen, so yea.My skin type is combination to oily where I get oily on the T-zone and quite drying on the cheek area sometimes.Besides,I also had acne and my skin is a little sensitive.I am allergic to benzoyl peroxide so the most I can go is salicylic acid. Okay, wtf now I think my face have every problem.rofl


So anyway, I basically rotate my skincare every half a year or so, as I mentioned earlier I do not want my skin to be immune to that certain products and will not works for the others.


Morning routine
I keep it quite simple in the morning with these products before doing my makeup.





From L-R
1) Stem Gentle Cleansing Milk
2) Kose Sekkisei Lotion
3) Estee Lauder Pore Minimizing Skin Refinisher
4) H20 Eye Oasis
5) Estee Lauder Hydrationist
6) IQQU Advance Sunscreen
7) Diorsnow White Reveal UV Shield

I actually uses different suncreen depending on my skin condition. When my skin feels oily, I will use the IQQU one as it is a mousse type and it leaves skin feels matte and nice.The Dior one will leave my skin looks dewy hence I will use it when my face feels alittle drying.


Night Routine


My skin will be more pampered during the night as I believe when we sleep, the skin repairs and heals themselves.Hence, putting more rich products will eventually help more in the recovering system in the skin. Also, making sure that all your make up is taken out is equally important because the last thing that you want is a clogged face. So, these will be my night routine products.




From L-R
1) Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil
2) Purity One-Step Facial Cleanser
3) Optrex Eye Lotion
4)L'occitane Fresh Face Water
5) Kose Sekkisei Lotion
6) Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye
7) Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair
8) Paul and Joe Whitening Serum
9) Estee Lauder Hydrationist
10) Kiehl's Blue Herbal Moisturizer


I always make sure that I double cleanse my face: one to take the makeup off and the second one will takes out the dirt and oil and also the last traces of makeup.


Okay, item number 3 is kinda out of topic here but I guess it is part of my important routine as I like to make sure that my eyes are cleared from mascaras or any eyeshadows that would probably trapped in the eye. Caring for your eyes is very important especially if you are a contact wearer. Make sure that you clean your contacts properly and do not forget to change your casing every 3months to avoid bacteria. 


The Kose Sekkisei Lotion is really good but sadly to say that it contains alcohol in it so I wouldn't recommend this to people who is allergic to alcohol. However it leaves skin feels really smooth and hydrated. I also has the emulsion but I had to say that I hate it. It is actually quite sticky if you use it on its own and I've been told that you need to use a cotton pad which I think it is rather ridiculous as the cotton pad almost seeps everything in. So this will go somewhere else from the drawer. 


I only use the  Kiehl's moisturizer on the affected area of my skin. It contains salicylic acids and I'm really loving it very much.It heals acne but becareful as it is a little drying hence you only applied on the acne area.


I'm sorry this post is like quite messy and all.lol. IMO, everybody has different skin. What works for me might not works for you, vice versa. I'm just here to share mine :)


I hope you enjoy this post and I will talk to you soon.
Have a nice weekend and take care.
