No makeup can substitute to a healthy and glowing skin. Based on my personal experience, once my skin is very clear and highly moisturized it is easier to apply makeup and it looks nicer.
Having a healthy and glowing skin become harder and harder now. Technology
makes it hard for us to find proper time sleeping, too much pollution may cause
damage to our skin and procrastination always strikes especially when it’s time
to remove our makeup (count me in this!)
Now what can you do to reverse this major major skin care mistake?
1. Assess your facial cleansers
Not all product works the same,
it all depends on the "hiyang" factor. Use gentle cleansers like
Cetaphil Facial Moisturizer and the Celeteque Moisturizer. If you are into
scrubs and that feeling of small beads then try Bench Perfect Skin Whitening
Facial Wash, Asian Secrets Facial Scrub and St. Ives Apricot Facial Wash.
Washing your face is important as it is the first step of a clean and fresh
skin.
Here’s a
post on the cleansers I currently own.
Just like
how water is important to the body, a good moisturizer can make a big
difference for your face. I suggest using a heavy or highly moisturizing cream
in the evening so that it can work its magic overnight. In the morning try to
use a moisturizer is easy to blend and doesn't make your face feel dry. Try
Nature Republic Aloe Vera Gel and St. Ives Collagen and Elastin Moisturizer.
Here’s my review for the two products.
Most
damage on the face is due to bad sun exposure. Whether its summer or rainy
season, a product with a good amount of SPF will surely boost your confidence
under the sun. Sun screens can be higher in the price tag but trust me, it will
worth it. To save more you can use moisturizer with built in SPF like Bench
Perfect Skin Whitening Face Moisturizer with SPF 15 or Foundations and BB
Creams with SPFs. Currently, I am using Althea Petal Velvet Sunaway which I got
as a welcome box.
Cigarette,
alcohol and drugs can cause scary damage on the skin so as early as possible,
QUIT. Do it not just to have a healthy and glowing skin but do it for your life
as well. You are not gonna be young forever so better to take good care.

2. Don’t skip the toner
I never thought I will be into
toners to be honest. I used to see it as an optional step only but now I can’t
move to other steps of my routine without it. Toners help in making your skin
really glow. It provides additional layer of active ingredients in the skin
that could help cancel redness, brighten dark spots and correct the texture of
the skin. Try to use toners that you can just pat on your skin, mostly the
hydrating ones and alcohol free.
Locally, I recommend Human Heart Nature’s Hydrating Face Toner and Avon 360 Illuminating Toner. If you are into
Korean skincare regimen, Missha’s Skin Essence Treatment is one of the most
hyped hydrating toners currently.
3. Keep your face moisturized
4. Do not delay your sunscreen
5. Nourish the inside
Vitamins as well as antioxidants
can help promote cell degeneration and boost repairs for damage skins thus
you'll be healthier from the inside that will ultimately reflect on the
outside. Yours truly believes in Conzace as it is almost complete with all the
good stuff.
6. Quit your vices
Are you aiming for a beautiful and glowing skin too?
