to make up for my lack of quality content here and pretentious poetry, i’m just going to do a mini post about my daily facial routine because today i feel like writing about something (⌯⌅⌄⌅)
(from left to right)
- bioré cleansing gel
- eversoft blackhead removal scrub
- aloe vera toner from the body shop
- wonder pore from etude house
- the smim from the face shop
- aloe vera gel
- aloe vera soothing cream from the body shop
- water sleeping mask from laneige
- aqualabel special gel cream from shiseido
- bioré uv aquarich sunscreen
firstly, i cleanse my face with the bioré cleansing gel. cleansing is very important to get all the dirt off of your face first!! then i exfoliate with the blackhead removal scrub to remove any excess dirt, though i tend to stay away from it if my skin is sensitive from a breakout or cold sore. after gently dabbing my face with a towel to dry it, i apply either 3 or 4 to my face with a cotton pad. after waiting for it to dry, i apply either 5/6/7 to moisturize (usually, i use the aloe vera gel to soothe any acne i may have at the time). finally, depending on the time of the day, i spread 9 or 10 on my skin. before i sleep, i apply the special gel cream from shiseido as it leaves me waking up with smooth and supple skin. in the morning, i apply the sunscreen to protect my skin from any damage that could be done by the sun!!
