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.

erborian cc dull correct
I've used almost all the products in the erborian brand so when I saw this product, I immediately purchased it. When I applied it to my face after moisturized, it feels like a primer texture. I used this for no makeup days.

Kate Somerville Kx Active Concentrates Ceramides + Omegas Serum
I brought this because I loved the "ceramide" as an ingredient when I used it in Dr. Jart+ ceramides cream. It soothes and changes my skin for the better. I don't lack hydration or look like it when this product is applied on my face. I originally got the deluxe sampled skin in the skin safety kit 2020 from sephora and I liked it so much that I brought the full sized. This product comes in handy because during this quarantine 2020 situation, we must wear masks when outside so this serum provides the humectant skin so the skin doesn't break out.

GlamGlow GravityMud peel off mask
GlamGlow GravityMud peel off mask
I'm not a fan of "peel-off" mask but I tried it and it's ok. I didn't see any firming properties but I did feel my face getting the tighten feeling after 10 minutes of using this mask each time. I have to wash my face after using because some some reason, it's hard to peel off all the side pieces. There's always bits left over on the outlines of your face.

Glam Glow FlashMud Treatment
Glam Glow FlashMud
I have been masking more during quarantine and noticed my skin is more brightened. But I'm not sure if it's this treatment mask or if the stay-at-home order is making us not go outside. It has a bit citrus scent and the beads in this exfoliating scrub reminds me of the harsh st.ives scrub. I will not be repurchasing this product.

Urban Decay Born To Run 66
Last time I brought an Urban Decay lipstick was three years ago; I got the Vintage "Roach". It was an odd color almost brownish. I though this purchase would be similar but a bit more red tone to it. I was right, it looks like a dirty dusty rose color, better for people who have a cooler undertone. The lipstick is a bit drying but I felt that way with the vintage shade also. I brought the Born to Run palette with this "66" shade and the palette had carmine because my eyes kept tearing so the palette wasn't for me. I'll admit that I brought this for the packaging and it is a comfortable MATTE lipstick, maybe I'm biased because I prefer creamy ones.

tarte Double Duty eye architect liner & shadow black/slate
For those that have used the Tony Moly Crystal lovely eyes, shade color brown beam, about 5 years ago know about this type of product. This product is definitely a dupe but the liner was entirely dried out for me. Luckily, the liner was dried out because it contains carmine which I'm very sensitive to,I tried to swatch the liner part and the first top portion just fell off and the rest of the liner is so rough to use on the eyelids. Overall, the liner is very pigmented and you need a waterproof makeup remover for it to come off. I just used the eye shadow part of the product. It is very creamy but rubs off easily; perfect for people "on-the-go".
