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.

Mac prolongwear paint pot vintage selection



I don't reach for eye primers much for my eye shadows but this was recommended by youtube Tati and I use it once in a while if I want my eye shadow to last longer. It's full coverage, very thick and has many colors, but I prefer to use the color that is similar to my eyelids.

Kate Somerville Liquid ExfoilKate Triple Acid Resurfacing Treatment



I brought this AHA and BHA this past summer and started using currently in the winter. I use this the same method as I would to a toner. Pump some onto a cotton pad and apply it on my face nightly. I didn't see much of a change during the drier winter months. But overall, my sensitive skin didn't break out so there must be something good about this product.

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Mini Breaker Palette

    
This is my first Jeffree Star product-a mini jaw breaker palette. I like the glitter shimmer colors over the mattes. I'm not a fan of bubble gum but I love the colors slice and drill. These press pigment colors are very pigmented and they stain your eyelids so don't be surprised when oil cleansers don't remove the colors when you try to wash it off.

PAT MCGRATH LABS BlitzTrance™ Lipstick Club Kiss

I brought my first Pat Mcgrath labs product in the shade Club Kiss which is a glitter magenta with pink pearl. This is the perfect holiday Christmas lipstick. I know for a fact that I will be sporting this during December. It is so creamy and the light hits the color so well.

Givenchy Rouge Le Rouge 315 Framboise Velours - deep raspberry pink

Givenchy Rouge Le Rouge 315 Framboise Velours - deep raspberry pink

This is a creamy, very pigment mauve rose color. It is so pigmented that when I eat a meal and drink and the color was still on the lips. This product lives up to its name. It felt semi-matte with a liquid lipstick feeling.

MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Foundation R260

MAKE UP FOR EVER Ultra HD Invisible Cover Foundation R260




I finally understand the hype on this holy grail foundation product. I love that I have finally found my shade however it breaks me out if I wear it for too long. I love the natural finish and the application and the coverage. Great in photos but you must give your skin a spa day or wear it every two days.
