skin care prducts

these are just some of the products i use, i apologise if i didnt indicate all of them, its because most of the products that i use is in another closet in another city.

skin care

When I was younger, I always hear all the women in my family saying my Lola has the most beautiful skin ever. They say even when she was bed ridden, she never forgot her skin ritual. And that I was the lucky one, to inherit her great skin. I guess they were right, why?

Because most of the people I meet would always compliment me because of my skin. When I was younger, i used to get irritated with people pinching my cheeks or touching my face because they say I have great skin. They use to brush my face with their hands and ask my mom if i wash my face with anything.

Though the face harassment happened a lot, im so happy that my face/skin didnt get brutalised. LOL. Growing older, I never had a problem with zits, when puberty hit me. I never worried about oily face, scars, discoloration, pores, etc. My skin as they say is perfect. And I owe all of it to my genes.

Dont get me wrong, im not saying that great skin can only be achieved by having some great genes. Well, let me digress, great skin, yes came from genes and yes, it can also be made possible without the help of "products".

Now that I am older, i dont just rely on my genes, i use products that helps me maintain my skin. So what products do I sue, lets start from the face down.

Daily Regimen Face:

1. To wash my face, I alternate using a Dove Cream Bar Extra Sensitive (as i have the most sensitive skin evaar) and Ponds Facial Scrub. These products are sensitive enough to be used daily.

2. To remove gunk, dirt and makeup, I use ponds cold cream daily and l'oreal make up remover. I love the cold cream as it instantly does the job and the loreal takes care of those, smudge proof and waterproof make up thats hard to remove.

3. To exfoliate, I use the St Ives Apricot scrub. Hands down the best, so i dont use any other product. I exfoliate 4x a week, but it depends on each activity. This is even formulated to be used everyday, depending on the skin you have, I have sensitive skin and I dont scrubbing my face too often.

4. To moisturize during the day, i put on Myra vitamin E moisturizer sunscreen with spf 15. This protects my skin from the sun and it keeps it soft and supple. For night, I smear a think layer of Vaseline (petroleum jelly cream or just plain petroleum jelly) on my face and neck area, and when i wake up, i wash it with water and i feel fresh, plus you can instantly feel the changes on your face.

5. Last but definitely not the least, the best product i use are, water and vitamin E. Yes, I drink gallons and gallons of water to keep me hydrated and vitamin E to help me keep my skin and the rest of my body healthy.
