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.

PEACH & LILY Super Oasis Concentrated Serum
Love this serum for the winter drier conditions. It kept my skin hydrated and moisturized.
Must repurchase! Holy grail product. Great for sensitive skin; absorbs quick.

fresh Black Tea Anti-Aging Moisturizer with Retinol-Alternative BT Matrix
I like it but don't love it. I think I prefer their Lotus Youth Preserve Radiance Renewal Night Cream over this one. It's a good introduction to antiaging for late twenties and early thirties. The only pro to me is the light tea scent.

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil
I decided to take this out and try it. I'm not a fan, I don't like the "oil" scent, and I use it in the shower after I get off work. Just using it to use it. Huge disappointment; don't bother getting it.

Estée Lauder Revitalizing Supreme+ Youth Power Creme Moisturizer
Great winter and dry conditions moisturizer. My face and necks thanks this cream, and I've been using some as a hand cream because my fingers get extremely dry.

Drunk Elephant Protin Powerpeptide Resurfacing Serum with Lactic Acid
Hated this product. This is the last product that I will use from Drunk Elephant. Over the years, I have spent alot of money on the Drunk Elephant brand but always been disappointed due to overhyped products and marketing. This serum is too expensive for the ingredients in it. The texture is so thin and sticky. There are so many other better serums out there. This is a nice introductory product to try but the percentage of the product with the price doesn't do it justice.
