Everyday Beauty Essentials


I recently went to a derm clinic to have my basic facial done and the staff there complimented my skin for having small pores despite wearing makeup everyday. I was told that I don’t actually need to have my facial done since my face is flawless, but still I want to have it done since I get bothered when I see small zits on my face. They recommended monthly sessions of diamond peel instead of having a facial. So to actually share what I do to somewhat maintain a younger looking skin or for smaller pores.

Here are my everyday beauty tips / essentials that I find effective: 
1) Never forget to exfoliate your skin once in a while, as for me I use St. Ives apricot Facial scrub. The purpose of using facial scrubs is to actually massage your face while cleaning not just the superficial skin but also the pores underneath the skin. The next important thing is to always 

(2) Moisturize your face, there are a lot of moisturizers on the market that you can choose from but for me the best one is a Jergens aloe Vera moisturizer because not only that its price is reasonable but I also love  the fact that it’s not sticky like other moisturizers.

Then after this 2 basics, the next thing that you need to really consider is to (3) choose the makeup / beauty products that you will use. It’s essential to have a good blend of foundation / BB cream / CC cream that will maintain your fresh and flawless look throughout the day. As for me, I have a few selections of everyday CC cream / BB cream and foundation that I love to use alternately. Some of which are Mary Kay CC cream, Elf nude BB cream and ponds, natural foundation, I like this product since it’s not sticky, it's hypoallergenic and the fresh look last throughout the day, no need for re-application. 

Loose powder retouch is what I need to reapply to maintain the non-oily look on my face especially on the T-zone. For the loose powder, I prefer using Mary Kay or just plain baby powder just to set in the cc cream.

And to complete the fresh look I use a selection of balms and lipsticks to give more color to my face. Some of the lippies that I love is the tinted balm of L’Oreal for a matte finish. Recently, I tried Mary Kay creme lipstick and Zalora’s lipstick collection and I just love it! Since it’s long lasting and it also helps moisturized cracked / dry lips.


And lastly, to emphasize my eyes, I just put eyebrow liner and powder and also a bit of neutral eye shadow and you may also add a bit of mascara to emphasize your lashes.



And that’s my everyday essentials for those who are interested. Please do visit my page to read more of my blogs :)  Thank you
