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.

Murad Retinol Youth Renewal Serum

 

 


I've seen this product and placed it in my Sephora cart and left it there for a good 6 months and finally purchased it. Retinol is an ingredient that I've always wanted to use but never reach for it. I never saw any results and my skin is always dry afterwards. So I brought this product and only use this twice a week as alternate to my moisturizing serum. If I see results, not easy to see but it suppose to help with fine lines and wrinkles. The reason I keep using it as a night serum is that it is gentle for my sensitive skin.

MURAD Prebiotic 4-In-1 MultiCleanser



I use this as a morning cleanser or no-makeup days. It's a gel-like cleanser that I use dry, meaning without water first. Then I wash it off with water--the technique is just weird when I started using it. It's very different when compared to other gel cleansers. I will not repurchased.

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.

Murad Age Reform Hydro-Dynamic Quenching Essence

At first, I purchased this through Ulta 21 days of beauty because there was AHA and BHA ingredients in the product. I didn't have high expectations at all. Soon after using it two days in a roll, it became my holy grail. I have a bit of milia and uneven texture near my under eyes and temple areas and it all disappeared and my skin became smooth. I usually get white heads extractions once a month but I was able to go two months instead of monthly after using this product. This product was a great surprise and now a new addition to my skincare routine.
