I went from an easy, hurried, low-maintenance facial cleaning ritual to trying out the Asian 10 step skincare routine. Being raised in New York City has damaged and polluted my skin; I'm now repairing and focusing on anti-aging.
I want to buy and use products from a broad number of brands, I didn't just want to stick with one brand, I shopped around and compared all. I will try to write reviews each month, one which will be a list my skincare routine products, sharing my experiences on each product.

August boxycharm 2018

The theme this month was life of the party. I got variation #1, weighing at 0.18kg.
I understand why they wanted to do this theme because this is the middle of summer and they wanted to add colors. But neon colors and cuticle oil didn't make any sense to me. I was highly disappointed for this month. The products in the box either didn't apply to me or they didn't really go together.

  1. Laura Lee Los Angeles Party Animal Palette - the 6 neon colors are too bright for me, especially when I work in the medical field and not a makeup artist. Boxycharm should get some colors that don't have all 6 neon colors screaming at you.
  2. House of Lashes -I know they are a great brand but I just don't want lashes. I don't use them because my eyes are sensitive.
  3. Adesse Cuticle Oil - no comment. What are you suppose to do with cuticle oil if you don't do your nails much or at all.
  4. Bang Beauty Chocolate Gel Eye Liner - I do like gel eyeliners but I prefer the pencil form and not pot form but I can probably use this for a brow liner too.
  5. Smashbox Be legendary Triple Tone Lipstick in shade Berry Ombre - I was going to buy these last month when I saw them in stores, but I decided to wait, glad I did.
  6. Wander Beauty Baggage Claim Gold Eye Mask - nice airplane goodies.
Overall, 3 out of 6 will be used and the other three will be given away.
