Iridescent, heaven, tea!
iridescent: what is your skincare routine?
Okay. So. I came back up to edit this because it got really long. I also edited it so it looked pretty and basically this turned into something much more in depth than anyone expected including myself.
Also A LOT of these products I got deluxe sized samples of for various reasons and did not pay for the full size.
Skin Type: My roommate works at Sephora and (affectionately) refers to my skin as “butterfly wing skin.” Which means I actually have sensitive skin. I’m also dry to combination, with isolated breakouts. Lately I’ve found that OleHenriksen works really well for me and you can find the three main products I listed here in a set which is basically 3 for the price of 1.
Make up removing: Ideally I would be able to use the Tatcha Camellia Cleansing Oil every night because it’s incredible, but alas, I am not made of money. I use the OleHenriksen orange wipes.
Cleansing: OH Gel Cleanser, First Aid Beauty Red Clay Cleanser, Angels on Bare Skin
Morning: OH Truth Serum followed by the Sheer Transformation Perfecting Moisturizer. I don’t use a toner because most are too astringent for me, and a lot of them have ingredients like rose in them which I am allergic to.
Eye Cream: Belif Eye Bomb
Other daytime moisturizing products I love: Drunk Elephant B-Hydra gel. Belif Aquabomb. Tarte Drink of H2O moisturizer.
Tinted moisturizer: Dr. Jart Ceramidin Day Tint It’s definitely too dark for me but fuck it.
Night: OH Invigorating Night Transformation Gel (this is an acid/chemical exfoliator and pretty much one of the only ones I can use), followed by the Sheer Transformation Moisturizer again.
Other night time products I love: Drunk Elephant LaLa Retro Whipped Cream
Oils: Fresh Seaberry Oil, Drunk Elephant Marula Oil, The Ordinary Marula Oil (much more affordable, quality difference is tbd)
Sheet Masks: Any and all Dr. Jart ones, Belif Aquabomb (if you’ve made it this far, are you really that shocked?)
Face Mask: Mask of Magnaminty
Zit-Zapper: Grease Lightning
Also because for some people (me) skin care can also be a problem with hair products because I tend to break out on my scalp at the slightest provocation:
Shampoo: Honey I Washed My Hair Shampoo Bar
heaven: favorite color combinations?
Anything with teal in it! (this simple one sentence answer is hilarious now)
tea: favorite films?
The Way, Way Back, any and all Jane Austen adaptations, You’ve Got Mail, Ocean’s Eleven, The Italian Job, and the majority of the Disney animated movies! Also most of the MCU and Wonder Woman.
