my skin care

{my routine}

I spend 20 mins on my daily skincare routine morning and night, layering toners, serums, lotions, and creams on my face (not forgetting the neck!). Most products I use are natural and organic, some are derma brands that are non-toxic (validated in my Resources links).  

My routine varies depending on the day in the month e.g. fresher product and less layers for my oilier skin before moon cycle. I also use different products for different parts of my face e.g. my cream on forehead is different than the one for my cheek. I don't believe in over-moisturising or skin reliance as it's only a matter of what you use, when and how you use them.

My daily makeup includes concealer, mineral powder, and mascara. I’m not a fan of foundation I only brush on a thin layer of mineral powder all over my face for special occasion, oh well except on my own wedding ;)

{my skin}

I have medium light Asian skin, consider lack of radiance which is the result of typical imbalance of oil and moisture. Also dry and sensitive, with dryer forehead yet prone to white heads. No visible pores except on T zone and a bit next to nose. My dry skin becomes combination before moon cycle with oily t zone and serious breakouts due to hormonal change.
