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.

Drunk Elephant Shaba Complex Firming Eye Serum

 

I love this eye serum. Now if only it wasn't so pricey. I would repurchase this if it's on sale again. I prefer this packaging because it's more hygienic.

Herbivore Prism AHA + BHA Exfoliating Glow Serum

I had high expectations for this product and was waiting a while for it to go on sale to try it. Love the packaging but not a fan of the product. The scent is a been smelly for me at first, but it went away after half the bottle was done. A bit sensitive at first but overall, it keeps my skin hydrated.

ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation-Balos ST3

 ILIA Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 Foundation-Balos ST3


This is a nice skincare/moisturizer tint product. This texture is a bit thick for me to use during the August hot and humid weather, but I will be using this daily during the upcoming autumn season. It does give you a natural look but it's too shiny especially if you sweat outside. The key in using this product is just a few drops to smooth onto your face. If too much, then it can look heavy.
