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.

Sunday Riley Light Hearted Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Daily Face Sunscreen

 

I love this sunscreen; usually I'm not a fan of western sunscreen but I love how this feels on my skin. No white cast or stickiness. Only SPF 30 so I've been usually this during the winters. Plus, the blue light defense makes me think that I'm protecting my skin from all the screen time from my technologies haha. I have a very sensitive nose for smell and whatever little scent was in the bottle didn't bother me.

Herbivore Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative Smoothing Serum

 I loved the mini sample so much that I ordered the full size. Loved it so much that I ended up purchasing more products from the brand. My sensitive skin loves this retinol alternative and it's all that matters to me. If it helps with dark spots and age spots who knows because there isn't enough of the bakuchiol ingredient in this product. I'm in my mid-30s so this product was to try out this retinol alternative but there are many more other retinol products out there for our faces.

Herbivore Cloud Jelly plumping hydration serum

 Herbivore Cloud Jelly vegan collagen and tremella plumping hydration serum



I like to use this product in my daytime skincare routine which helps with morning bloating and dryness. The tremella is supposed to help with inflammation and I don't see much but it helps with hydration and that is all I care about during the wintertime. Love the pink liquid color and the texture isn't sticky, and my sensitive skin loves it. No scent.
