Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Liquid Essence
Love this fresh and lightweight skincare product. Love the microbeads that burst when you apply onto the skin. It is pricey but it's ok to splurge once in a while. Best luxury essence for the winter temps.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.

Chanel Micro Eye Gel Yeux
Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Gel Yeux Intense Smoothing Hydration Eye Gel
This product got me into applying eye products into my skincare routine. My eyes easily produce milia so I'm very frightened to use creams, but this product made my eye area feel smooth and hydrated. I loved the cooling effect.

Celestial Divinity Luxe Quad × 1 Fleur Fantasia
This is my second palette from Pat Mcgrath and I'm quite indifferent about this one.
It goes on awesome with great color and pigmented however I don't see it on my eyelids after a work shift. I haven't touch it since and I'm going to declutter this after this spring. Very disappointed.

Primera Emulsion Organiece
I always wanted to try the primera emulsion and with organic black beans as one of their ingredients was a plus. Love the light moisturizer feel on my skin. Prefer to use this on the warmer months but it worked during the day as I was indoors with the heat on during the winters. I love it. I didn't feel I had moisturizer on, and it combat any dehydration I had.

primera Alpine Berry Water Cream
I know this product is discontinued but this was one of my favorite dries, brands and I'm a very picky user. I remember using this brand other gel moisturizer in the past when it first launched. I remembered loving the product back then but there were so many products out in the market that I never got to try this water cream. I purchased this through Sephora and am currently using this as a day cream during these winter northeastern US conditions. It is cold and the air is dry, so it sucks majority the moisture in the skin barrier. Surprisingly this cream kept my skin moisturized during my entire 9 hours of work in the hospital and the hospital is very dry. It is very lightweight and hydrated my sensitive skin. I'm very sad that this product is discontinued.
