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.

GLAMGLOW Good in Bed™ Passionfruit Softening Night Cream


I'm not going to lie, I hated it when I first used it on my face--it peeled so bad. And it smelts like fruit candy. The second time I used it, I had to rub it into my skin to let it fully absorb and then my skin is fine. But overall, it's too much work for a night cream. Another thing, if you use other AHA or BHA-skip this night cream that night.

MAC Pony Park matte lipstick in Love is Blind

  

I like this berry color, it dries down matte.
Great for transition from late summer to early autumn.

ERBORIAN Yuza Sorbet Radiance Moisturizer

ERBORIAN
Yuza Sorbet Radiance Moisturizer




I like but not love this moisturizer. I've used the erborian frap bamboo gel moisturizer that I loved! This product is more of a cream instead of a gel and it has little beads that disappear as you apply it onto your face. Mine has a bit of an off-scent that I don't like when I apply it directly on my face but it disappears after a minute. Great for my sensitive skin but I will not repurchase.

This is a gentle clear shimmer coral pink gloss. Love the limited packaging.

MURAD AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser


MURAD AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser



I purchased this product after loving the murad age reform quenching essence plus it claims to have AHA and BHA properties. The texture is similar to a peeling gel. It has salicylic acid, lactic acid and glycolic acid which helps me with my whiteheads and blackheads. It is a nice exfoliating cleanser with some radiant finish. The problem that I have with this product is that from manufacture to expiration lasts for 2 years! It's ok but not worth the repurchased.

TOM FORD Traceless Perfecting Foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 15-3.5 Ivory Rose



There is a reason why some foundations are more expensive than some, only if you can find the right shade. The application is lightweight and smooth and love the satin finish. I'm someone who prefers BB creams over full coverage thick foundations, so take this review with a grain of salt. In my opinion, this is my perfect foundation-it doesn't sink into my pores and it has enough coverage for me.
