Tonight's 10 Step Skin Care Routine

I know everyone wants perfect, fresh skin but you have to put in some work for you to achieve that. Here's my steps for tonight.


I've forgotten to put the Foam Cleanser and Pore Mask in the photo.
1. My Little Beauty's (My Little Box's own brand) Eau Micellaire Démaquillante. This is like Bioderma and Garnier's Micellar Water. It delicately cleanses and removes makeup from your face and eyes. It also helps improve skin complexion with the help of aloe vera.



2. I then washed my face with Ariul Stress Relieving Purefull 
Cleansing Foam. Lime scented foam on your face, mmmmm. Very refreshing.


Reused the photo from the Thanksgiving box review

3. It's been ages since I used a pore mask and I just happen to get my hands on Pro You Pore Control Facial Mask. I tried it and I think I'll use it again because it's easy to use, rinses easily and left a clean feeling on my face. I kept the mask on for 20 minutes and rinsed it off with lukewarm water.



4. Gokmul Care Ultra Ampoule Toner,  best toner EVER - need I say more? I like patting this toner on my face instead of using cotton 
wool, I'm weird like that.


5. Cellbydate Galacto Zero Essence. This preps up the skin for the 
deluge of creams and serums I'm about to pack on. Same with the toner, I use my hands to pat this essence on.


6. AHC Hologram Moisture Serum. I use this when I use a wash off mask to boost the moisture on my face. This serum I normally spread then pat on for better circulation and absorbency.



7. Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream is one of my go to eye creams. It's light but packs enough goodness to keep those lines away from my 
face. I usually wait for 2 minutes before proceeding to the next 
step to allow my skin to absorb eveything I just put on. 



8. I then use Mizon Snail Recovery Gel Cream to calm those angry blemishes. I'm quite generous with this gel cream and slap tons on. 



9. I'm almost done, I swear I am. I love Tonymoly's Appletox to help keep the moisture in and boost the snail with apple and honey. I then wait for 5 minutes to give my face time to absorb everything.



10. Last step! I use Tonymoly's Panda's Dream White Sleeping Pack to seal all the products I just slapped on my face. 



I know it's a lot but trust me, it makes a huge difference and you will thank yourself in the future for investing all that time to the promotion of your skin. So what's your skin care routine!

Rinse off with lukewarm water.

     This item retails for $9 and is the perfect companion of the Mise En Scene Perfect Repair Hair Treatment Cream.

Memebox Anti-Aging Box

This is my 3rd last Memebox Review and it's heartbreaking to think that I will no longer receive pink boxes of goodies. Everyone, this is the Memebox Anti-Aging Box.

                                     

BORY Wrinkle Repair Serum 50ml

This item retails for $48 online. This anti-aging wrinkle serum works on remodel and rejuvinates the skin's surface for the look of firm and supple skin. I haven't had the time to properly try all the items in this box but based from all the excited ladies on facebook, I'm expecting a lot from this Serum.

                                 

ESTHETIC HOUSE Collagen Herb Complex Eye Cream 100ml

This item retails for $42 online and why shouldn't it be? It's 100ml!! This eye cream promises to give you the 'lifted' look, the firmer feeling, and glowing radiance around the eyes.  This cream has marine collagen, herbal complex, and adenosine to lift, define, and brighten the eye area. 

                                     



ENESTI Day to Day Pomagranate Acerola Foaming Cleanser 160g

This item retails for $14 online and it promises to remove makeup, oil, open and de-clog pores.  It also promises to improve skin elasticity and brighten up the complexion.  Gently massage cleanser onto damp face to create a warm lathe. Rinse with lukewarm water.

It promises to support natural cell regeneration to decrease the appearance of wrinkles and other flaws. 


                              

Memebox Luckybox 12

So I got my BF to buy me the Luckybox bundle last year and Luckybox 12 is my first Luckybox. Let's see if I get Lucky - no pun intended.



UNNI RECIPE Vitamin Recharger Essence 55ml

     This item retails for $18 online. According to the info card, this is a vitamin recharging, tone brightening essence that enriches dull, dehydrated skin with 6 different vitamins, lemon extracts, orange extracts, grapefruit extracts, lime extracts and niacinamide. That's a lot of extracts to put in one essence. Hopefully, it will live up to my expectation. I will try this out starting next week and I will keep you posted on how it is and if it can replace my Benton Snail Bee Essence.



LANGSRE Rose Berry 70 Sleeping Pack 50ml

     This item retails for $30 online and it comes in a glass jar and a wee spatula. The rose smell is not over powering like the Dipodeur Dress Perfume from the Christmas Collection. It smells like yummy Rose flavoured Turkish delight. It has little bits inside but gets absorbed in the skin. It's quite sticky at first but it dries quickly and doesn't leave you feeling sticky all night. 



PUREPLUS+ Lip Treatment 10g

     This item retails for $9 online and is available in 3 flavours, Strawberry, Honey Bee, and Milk bebe.  I got the Strawberry flavoured one.  It's suppose to fill in wrinkles and help plump up the lips. I didn't feel any plumping action with this lip treatment but it did moisturise my lips. Too moisturised if I'm honest. It was a tad bit sticky and my hair keeps getting stuck to my lips because of it.



RIRE Pigment 2.5g

     This item retails for $12 online and is available in 5 different shades. 01 Snow White, 02 Gold Clutch, 03 Peach Peach, 04 A-Pink and 05 Club Burgundy. I got 02 Gold Clutch.  It's not as good as MAC Pigments but it's a pigment pot, it's bound to be better than your average eye shadow. 



PISTEO Bright & Pure C Serum 7ml

     The full size, 7ml x 4 retails for $100 online and on Memebox shop.  I love this serum and it's a shame I can't afford to buy tons of it. It brightens up my complexion and keeps it healthy looking. I cannot recommend this serum enough. If you can afford it, buy it, it's the best serum out there.



TONYMOLY BCDation All Master SPF30 20g

     The full size, 50g retails for $24 online. If you're running late and don't have time to put your face on, then this cream is your new best friend. It's a makeup base, BB cream, CC cream, and foundation in one. I use it every morning to when I go to work.




I love 4 of the 6 items in this box and those are the big ticket items so I'm really pleased.
