Tired


Write u're reviews here about any skincare product that u tried and absolutely love. Please also mention the changes u observed.

One on my impulse purchases:

The Body Shop's Vitamin C Micro Refiner

Vitamin C Micro Refiner: Exfoliators & Scrubs: Skin Care - The Body Shop

- It's a very fine exfoliant, doesn't aggravate the skin and leaves u with a really soft skin.







Some days are a complete waste of make-up!

Hmmmm, worth a try.

Personally, I love the Nivea lip balm. It makes cracked and dry lips moist and supple within 2 days of use.

I also love Eucerin Body Lotion. It makes dry and rough body hydrated even after a single application. Especially great for feet and elbows. And little kids.

I used this a while back, something similar to yours Gina.. It gives you an immediate soft and smooth feel..liked it..though it has not helped any of my acne scarring but then I have never been regular so can't say.

I tried Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk when I was put on Accutane earlier this year. Needed something that soothes and doesn't irritate my facial skin that had become very, very dry and super-sensitive almost as soon as I started taking those pills. This cleanser did all that and left my skin feeling and looking fresh, clean, and dewy without that squeaky feel.

Then, i went off the drug and at that time around, summer was also coming up and I was skeptical about its effectiveness for my face, which used to be super-oily in pre-accutane days, during the summer. Anyhow, I continued using it throughout the summer and never felt it to be heavy or left with a gunky or oily slick. This is surely a keeper for me.

Also, around the same time, I was looking for a good moisturizer to keep dryness away for as long as possible. I read excellent reviews about the mixture of Jojoba oil, Grapeseed Oil, and Sweet Almond Oil and decided to give it a try and I think that was one of the best decisions I have made by far. Although, these are pure oils, they absorb into your skin super quickly and leave your skin very well moisturized and dewy. You can read the benefits of these oils on the web. The best thing is that you can use this mixture as facial AND moisturizer and I also use it around the eye area. The added benefit that I saw was longer eyelashes.

What I do is spritz rose water after cleansing and then take a few drops of the mixture of these oils and massage it right in. If you have dry skin as my mom does, you can use the oil mixture as cleansing oil too.

^ Forgot to add Neutrogena SPF 45 sunscreen. I tried many others but I keep coming back to this particular one. It doesn't leave me looking like a ghost, is wallet-friendly, and isn't oily.
