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.

AMOREPACIFIC Youth Revolution Vitamin C Radiance Concentrator

 Very pretty bottle and scent feel divine, but I don't see any change over using an entire product. I prefer to use this at night when I want to pamper my skin. They say shake before use and it's best to use vitamin C at night otherwise if you use in the daytime just apply SPF over it. But I have more time to do my nighttime routine, so I like to apply luxurious products and allowing time to sink into my skin. As I approach 35, I've notice that I need help with firming and radiance which this product claims to do.

Kiehl's Since 1851 Ferulic Brew Facial Treatment Essence with Lactic Acid

I've used their Iris Essence about 5 years ago and liked it but didn't love it. I have similar thoughts about this product. I do like this glass bottle over its counterpart iris version plastic bottle. Don't forget to shack the bottle before use. I use this more as a toner replacement over a cotton pad. I also love its slight medicinal scent and it does make my skin feel fresh when I use it in the morning routine. It doesn't dry out my sensitive skin and I do prefer to use this during the summer months.

Biossance Squalane and Peptide Eye Gel

 


This is one eye gel that I love because my eye area tends to develop milia if I use rich creams, but this product doesn't do that. It has enough moisture for my dry eye area during the winter months. It doesn't have a scent and it's sticky. I loved the mini size so much that I purchased the full size.
