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.

Kiehl's Since 1851 Clearly Corrective™ Dark Spot Solution
I grabbed these products because I wanted to try out to see if the the brightening line works with dark spots that I have been producing because of age. I do see a few of dark age spots on my face now that I'm in my mid-30s. This lightweight serum absorbs through skin quickly but sadly I don't love it enough to use it continuous everyday to see changes. Since it is winter now and the temperatures are colder, I prefer a more hydrating serum.

BANILA CO Clean It Zero 3-in-1 Cleansing Balm in revitalizing
I cannot believe that I am so late to the game. This product is amazing as the first step in removing your makeup and deep cleansing your face. I didn't even need a second step foam cleanser. I love this product; I've always been a cleansing oil type of person but if your traveling, this is the product to take as a multicleanser. The texture is wax, sherbet-like and it melts right away and scrubs away all the gross makeup and sweat on your face. Even the harsh Jeffree Star pink pigments eyeshadows are able to be removed by this product and that's saying something. There is a tiny grape-like scent which fades away as it glides onto your skin. Love this product and will repurchase if necessary.
