Hello pretties!
This blog today is all
about my evening skincare routine. Skincare routine is a must-have for every
girl or woman. It would miraculously affect your skin if you chose the right
skincare items! In my opinion, it would not be a waste when you spend it on
skincare, at least to be compared with makeup. Because no matter how high
quality your makeup is, you cannot hide all the blemishes or imperfections of
your skin completely. And see what happened when you take them off at the end
of the day? Be your own beautiful skin is still so much better than hiding and
concealing it under your makeup. Let's just say a well spent on skincare goes a
long way. Your skin will definitely thank you for that!
Now, I’ll show you my
evening skincare routine step by step! I hope it would be useful for you to
find your own skincare items.
#1 – Makeup remover
I normally don’t wear
makeup very often. For everyday makeup, I don’t wear foundation, I only use
face primer, eyebrow pencil, sometimes maybe a little bit of eyeliner or
mascara, and lastly I put on my favorite lipstick or tinted lip balm. Just so
you know, I’m addicted to lipsticks. I know, ladies, we all have our own
addiction! Anyway, so if you wear any makeup, or even sunscreen, then you need
to take them off before any kind of skincare routine.
This is the most
important step in your skincare routine, especially before going to bed. So
here I’m using Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm to wash away all
of my makeup. Please note that I use this cleansing balm only when I wear
everyday makeup (as mentioned above), if you wear heavier makeup like
waterproof eyeliner, mascara, false lashes (especially), long-lasting
eyeshadow, etc, then I recommend you go for the eye makeup remover first. Just
make sure you don’t have any makeup leftovers on your face before moving the
next step of your skincare routine.

#2 – Cleanser
After removing all my
makeup, I wash my face all over again with Lancome Mousse Radiance
Clarifying Self-Foaming Cleanser for normal / combination skin. I,
actually, have oily skin, but this cleanser did not leave my skin oily or shiny
at all (so I think it would dry you out if you have normal skin). In contrast,
I really like the feeling of air-light foam gently wash off all the dust and
leftover makeup, leaving my skin very fresh and clarified. One more thing, I
recommend you wash your face with lukewarm water, it will help you to rinse off
all the makeup, oil, and dust easier and better.

#3 – Toner
The next step I will
brush my teeth, of course, but it is obviously not about skincare, so I
probably shouldn’t mention here.
The next thing I going
to do is using tissues to dry my face. I prefer using tissues to using towel, I
don’t know, I think it would be more hygienic. If you use your towel to wipe
your face, just make sure it was cleaned. When it is completely dry, I take one
or two pumps of Shiseido Pureness Balancing Softener and gently pat it
on my face. I don’t know why this toner is recommended for dry skin on Sephora,
because I have very oily skin but it did not break me out. But I would say this
toner is average, it is not as good as I expected, so I probably will find
another toner that would suit my skin type. Do you have any suggestion? I
really need some. Please write it on the comment section below telling what the
toner you are using right now.

#4 – Lip Balm
Here I’m using Neutrogena
Formule Norvégienne/ Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer and this is amazing! It’s just a drugstore product yet it’s very
effective, it can boost moisture, enhance volume and heal the chapped lips.
Definitely a must-have lip balm for every girls!

#5 – Serum &
Treatment
Just so you know, my
lips is very very dry, so I have to use lip balm all the time. More
importantly, hydrating your lips before going to sleep would give you a smooth
and plumping lips in the next morning.
This step is quite
flexible. You can skip it if your skin does not have many problems, you can
just use the night cream only. My skin is very oily, has large pores and
blemishes, and can be breakout easily, so I use Lancome Visionaire Advanced
Skin Corrector to improve my skin. This serum is quite expensive, but in my
opinion, it does a very good job at minimizing my pores. My skin becomes much
smoother, my pores are visible corrected, and those acne scars are diminished.
What a result! Except for the very costly price, I have to say that the quality
of this serum is worth the money. Before having tried the sample size of this
serum, I did read a lot of reviews on www.sephora.com, some find it effective and worth the money, some doesn’t feel the same
way. I, therefore,
recommend that you should ask for the sample size to test directly on your skin
for a few days before deciding whether to purchase it or not.
Afterward, if you have
acne problem, you can use your own acne treatment after applying serum (if
had). I used to have a very serious acne problem, but after a long time of treatment,
I don’t have acne very often, maybe once in a while. Anyway, my skin improved a
lot since then. If you would like to know how I got rid of those acnes, please
leave a comment below. I will write a blog about how to treat acnes whenever I
have time. Because, as we all know, summer is about to come to an end… which is
a very very sad news I wish I never realized!

#6 – Night Cream
There are like tons of
night cream on the market that specifically suit for any skin type. If you
already have one that you think it suits your skin type and solve your skin
problems, then you are a very lucky girl, go for it! I’m still struggling to
find a night cream for my own skin. I’ve been trying the sample size of Lancome
Visionaire Advanced Multi-Correcting Cream which I received from buying the
serum I mentioned above. The result was great but not very impressive, in my
opinion. So yes, I’m still trying to find the It-night-cream, if you have any
suggestion, please leave in the comment below. I’m opened to any suggestion.

#7 – Mineral/Pure Water
Okay, now you probably
would ask “Water? For what?”
Ladies, last but not
least, always remember to drink a glass of water before going to sleep! There
are no such makeup or skincare products that would be more beneficial than just
mineral water. Drinking water solves most of your problems in the world, medically,
physically and mentally. What more can we expected?
Sooo, that’s it for my
night time skincare routine. Don’t forget to leave a comment below telling me
what you use for skincare, I would love to read about skincare products you’re
using. I hope you find my reviews useful. And huge thanks for reading my blog!
Love yourself more and
always be beautiful.
Sweet dreams!
xoxo
