Earlier this month, I received an email from Glossier that inspired me to write this post.
Earlier this month, I received an email from Glossier that inspired me to write this post.
At Glossier, we believe in "skin first, makeup second, smile always"
Feel free to check out their website for more information :)
I am not sponsored in anyway
I looked at it and thought, wow.... It feels just like me... lol
I am not saying that I hate makeup or makeup is fake...
I like the fact that makeup enhance beauty but I lack the skill in makeup...
I tried to learn makeup from YouTube but it is just so hard!
That is why, I focus on skincare...
If you have been reading my blog for a while now, you will know I am obsessed with skincare!
Let's get started on my daily essentials!
Double Cleansing
This is probably the most important step in any skincare routine!
I swear by double cleansing to make sure my skin is 100% clean...
Even when I am not using any makeup products on my face, I will still double cleanse...
Yes, it is that important to me!
I always start with makeup remover followed by a normal cleanser
My favorite makeup remover is Michelle Lazar Deep Pore Cleanser
I really love this but the price is steep
An alternative to this will be Alovivi PureVivi Cleansing Lotion
This is way cheaper and the size is very good for the price.
I think it lasted for about one year as I rarely used makeup
It does its job well and it did not irritate my skin
At the moment my favorite cleanser is Elizavecca Milky Piggy Elastic Pore Cleansing Foam
It does its job well and is one of the few cleansers that does not dry out my skin.
Toner
This is my favorite toner, Naturie Hatomugi Skin Conditioner
I think I have mentioned this a few times already.
It was featured in my 2014 Favorites and 2015 favorites!
It is cheap, hydrating and not sticky.
I love this toner the best and so far, nothing can replace this!
This is my holy grail toner of all time :)
Essence
My favorite essence had to be Secret Key Starting Treatment Essence
This is also one of my holy grail.
It provides great hydration and it makes my skin more elastic, brighter, softer and smoother
Words cannot describe how much I love this!
lol
Moisturizer
Most moisturizers I had tried feels greasy so I usually just use gels.
I love aloe vera gels but they are usually not hydrating enough for my skin.
The only moisturizer I love is Elizavecca Green Piggy Collagen Jella Pack
Other than the fact that the texture is fun, it provides great hydration for my dry skin!
This works as a moisturizer and sleeping mask for me.
I can finally say goodbye to flaky skin :)
I feel so proud... lol
Sunscreen
I have to admit that I am lazy when it comes to this final step!
This is also a very important step as the sun can damage our skin!
There are a few products that I alternate between for sun protection.
The first one is a sunscreen from Biore (full review here)
It is one of the best selling and it has been highly raved about.
I love it!
It does not leave a white cast and it is not oily or sticky
When my skin is not in the best condition or when there is a special occasion, I will use my favorite cushion foundation.
This cushion foundation provides good coverage and does not dry out my skin.
It also provides sun protection and makes my skin looks smoother :)
It is a Taiwanese Brand, 1028
I like to use this alone at the last step of my skincare routine in the morning for the sun protection
It does not provide any coverage but keeps the oil away (especially my T-zone area)
These are my daily essentials!
Hope you guys enjoy reading this :)
