"i look ridiculous". leon said as he stared at his face through the mirror.
he has a stretchy pink hairband on his head that is pushing his hair back and causing some strands to stand behind the hairband while youre standing behind him as he is the one who is sat on your round plush chair.
"i think you look cute". you beamed at him after putting on your bubble headband on your head to push back your bangs and hair too.
"i still dont know why i have to do this". the older man looked at you as you moved on the table to arrange your hundreds of skincare infront of him.
clearly, he's only exaggerating. your skin care isnt that much.
"leon, you have to take care of your skin too. you give so much attention to your hair but you cant give the same care to your skin". you smartly said as you stood behind again.
"are you telling me that, now that im getting old, im getting less handsome?". he raised a brow and he almost laugh at your expression.
you hugged him from behind, arms around his neck as he leaned his head on it with a small smile.
"no matter how old you are, youre still the most handsomest". you kissed his forehead multiple times causing him to chuckle. "you still need that skincare though".
he huffed when he heard your last statement before you unwrapped your arms around his neck and leaned forward to take your bottle of toner.
"i dont think thats a word, hun". he quipped.
"what? handsomest?". you asked as you opened the cap and he nodded. "it is to me".
he looks at you in amusement for that before you nudged him on the shoulders and motion for him to cup his hands infront of him.
"now, gently pat this on your face". you told him when you poured a right amount of toner on his cupped hands. you watched in satisfaction when he carefully maneuvered his hands towards his face.
you lightly laughed when you saw some liquid run on his hands to his arms as he finally puts it on his face. leon then unsurely pat his face while grimacing a little when he could feel the liquid running down to his forearms before he started to wipe his hands all over his face.
"hey! i said pat, not rub and wipe". you swat his shoulders before putting some toner in your hands and patting it on your face too.
leon didnt listen for a second before patting his face too when he saw you doing it on yours. you smiled at him through the mirror.
"smells good". leon nodded when he could smell the toner all over his face.
you smiled giddily when you put down the toner then taking another bottle with a dropper on its cap and opening it.
"whats that now?". leon peered his head up while you took some serum in the dropper.
"its a face serum, for pores and dark spots". you informed him before checking the dropper if it has enough serum inside. "move your head to the side a little".
leon moved his head a little then you proceeded to drop some serum all over his face, on the forehead, both cheeks and on the chin. you look at it in satisfaction before moving the dropper again to the bottle to get some for your face too.
"now, rub it in". you told him as you angled your head then putting some on your face too. "leon? gently okay".
the older man just hummed as he rubs the jelly like liquid on his face. its a bit cold, a clinical smell to it and it makes his face a bit slippery now. he doesnt know if he likes that to be honest, but he really likes the coldness feeling on it on his face.
even the rubbing feels nice, its quite relaxing.
"how long.... mhmm, how long do i have to rub?". leon asked and you cant help but look at him in amusement as he has his eyes closed and rubbing his face gently.
"until you lather everything, including your neck". you told him while you rub your face too and he immediately moved his hands down to his neck and massaged it lightly.
you watched him hum a little at his own massage. "i think thats okay, leon. you have to let it dry for a moment before we'll put the moisturizer".
"serum and moisturizer arent the same?". leon asked with raised brows but his face looks pretty relaxed and a bit wet because of the serum.
you shook your head while you carefully put the skincare products that you guys are finished using on their respective holders. you then put out the moisturizer and your facemasks.
"huh, looks pretty the same to me". leon thought while staring at the products that is being laid out infront of him.
he could see the pack of facemasks, he remembers you putting it on his face sometimes. it helps him relax most of the time to be honest. he always love it whenever you sit on his lap and put it on his face, feeling your hands running around his face and your weight on his lap.
you rolled your eyes in amusement at his thoughts, men really doesnt get it. most of them just put whatever things on their face and proceed to call it a skincare. some knows what theyre doing though so kudos to them but you find leon's clueless attitude cute though.
after a few more minutes in silence and your hand running on leon's hair, you finally took your tub of moisturizer and opened it. you took a good amount of it in your fingers before putting some on leon's face. you quietly laughed when he jolted a little bit.
"same feeling of the serum". leon said, his words are a bit slurry and hazy as sleep are starting to creep inside him.
this skincare thing with you is pretty relaxing.
"yeah they are". you said as leon starts to spread the moisturizer on his face while you put some on your face before closing the tub and putting it back on the table.
you rubbed and massaged your face while looking at the mirror and glancing at leon who is taking his time with the moisturizer. after spreading yours correctly on your face and neck, you moved more behind leon to put your fingers on his face.
"oh honey, thats good". leon groaned gently when your fingers starts to massage his forehead. he hummed as you move your fingers to press points on his face and massage some lines. "got good fingers".
"sure do". you nodded your head as you moved the head band more up on his head.
leon continued closing his eyes while you move around him as he hears the small tear of the pack of facemasks. you move quietly as you pinch every edge of the mask to carefully put it on leon's face. he hums again as you softly pressed on the face mask, spreading the jelly like liquid all over and putting the holes of the mask correctly on its respective places on his face.
"good?". you asked and he only hums in relaxation.
then carefully, you took your own face mask and put it on your face. you hum too while you spread the mask on your face, the cooling effect of it feels so good on your skin.
"we'll keep this on for a few minutes". you informed leon who nodded his head and slowly opened his eyes. he smiled when he found out that you two are now wearing matching green face masks.
"looks good on you". leon jokingly flirted with a wink causing you to laugh while you clean the table and took a tube of lip balm.
"lips, please". you said and leon immediately puckered his lips before you moved forward to put some lip balm on his lips.
you couldnt help it so you leaned forward and pressed your lips on his with a sweet grin. you then felt his arms go around your waist to pull you closer and set you down on his lap.
"i love you, hun". leon quietly said as he peered up at you with his light blue eyes.
your heart swelled in love as your eyes looked at him too. he looks ready to fall asleep in any minute now but his eyes are fully focused on you, so full of love and softness.
"i love you too, leon". you said, eyes full of love too.
