For me, skin care is not just about making our skin look nice and pretty. It is more about showing ourselves that we care and getting a self-confidence boost. Also, skin is the biggest component of our body and it is what people can see so, we should take care of it and for sure, your future self will thank you for it.
Hello everyone! In this blog, I will be sharing to you about "When and how I started my skin care routine" and also the skin care products that I am recently using. Skin care has been a part of my daily routine and I will be very happy to share it with you.
So, yeah, without further ado, let's get started!
WHEN AND HOW I STARTED MY SKIN CARE ROUTINE
I couldn't remember exactly the exact time when I started doing my skin care but I guess it was when I was in college. I have been watching videos on Youtube back then and I keep seeing video of girls doing their skin care so, I also followed. And then, I have also known how important it is to take care of our skin.
Back when I was in college, I still wasn't really that serious about doing skin care. I would just do it whenever I feel like it but just recently, I have been really into it and doing it religiously. I have been jumping from one skin care brand to other skin care brands because trust me, it ain't easy to find the perfect skin care brand that would suit your skin.
MY SKIN TYPE
I am more into the sensitive skin type. I am a combination oily and dry. Sometimes, my skin gets really dry and sometimes, it gets really oily. I am have an acne-prone skin and I guess that has something to do with my hormones since I have irregular periods. And I guess, I have to deal with pimples for a long time.
SKIN CARE PRODUCTS
This skin care product that I will be showing you now is the one that I am currently using. Before I started using this, I really have so much pimples all over my face but now, my pimples has dried out and just pimple marks are left. It has been 3 weeks that I am using these products so I guess, I could say, it is working well.
So, now, I am using this Clear Bomb set from Ryx Skincerity.
The package includes:
60ML Toner
135 grams Exfoliating Soap
10 grams Night Cream
10 grams Day Cream
With the price of Php300 per set (where $1 = Php50), I could say that the price is really reasonable for the products that are included in the set. You could really say that it is very affordable.
I could also say that this skin care set is very convenient to use even if you say that you are lazy doing skin care since it will only be a 3-step process in the morning and at night. Let me tell you, I have tried a lot of skin care sets before and this one is really the most convenient and easy to apply.
MORNING SKIN CARE ROUTINE
In the morning, when I got out of bed, the first thing I'd do is to really wash my face with the Ryx Exfoliating Soap. Then, I wipe my face with a facial tissue or if I ran out of it, I just use a towel, or a shirt that is soft to the skin (a cotton cloth is preferable). Then, I get my cotton, put toner on it and then apply it on to my face. Let it get absorbed to the skin for few seconds and then apply the day cream.
And YES! As easy as that!
NIGHT TIME SKIN CARE ROUTINE
At night, before going to bed, I never forget to do my skin care no matter how tired I get. Because if I miss it, well, I'd really say "hello" to new pimples in the morning. 😂😂 And hey, I don't want that to happen.
So, at night, I wash my face with the soap, wipe it, put toner, and then put on the day cream.
So, it's basically doing the same steps as I do in the morning except for the Day Cream and Night Cream.
Yes, I know, it is very boring to read steps on doing skin care and it is nicer to actually see how it is done. 😂 (I can't blame you, I am like that, too. 😂😂)
Well, to show you how I do my skin care routine, join me in doing my night time skin care routine today.
This video is taken real-time - only for you guys.
TIPS:
Never rub the soap directly on to your face. In the video I was using this foaming bottle with brush. I melted the soap in it and just used the foam from the soap because the soap itself is too harsh and can damage your skin.
When you wipe your face, do not be too harsh. Just try to pat it on to your face.
When applying toner and creams, always do upward motion so your skin will be lifted up and will not turn saggy.
You can also massage your skin in a circular motion when applying your creams to help with blood circulation.
Do not apply toner on your eyelids since it has a very thin layer of skin there.
That's about it from me today. I hope you enjoyed my blog and I hope you were able to learn something from it.
Also, you can share the skin care products you're using in the comment section below. I would love to know about it. ❤️❤️
