My 10 Step Skincare Routine

To make this blog live up to its “theme”, I am sharing with everyone my skincare products and routine. I don’t do these skincare steps every night though since some of these products contain aha and bha, which is not very good if you use it all the time. But if you use aha and bha frequently, please use spf everyday to avoid sensitivity towards UV rays.

Step 1: cosrx - Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Cleanser - rinse with lukewarm water to open the pores up - gentle on skin and clears acne

Step 2: The Face Shop - Green Tea Cleansing Tissue - moisturizes skin and takes off excess makeup

Step 3: Neogen - Biopeel + Gauze Peeling (Green Tea) - smooth skin after use and it’s dual sided as well

Step 4: son&park - Beauty Water (Toner) - use with cotton pads - it truly transformed my skin - MY HOLY GRAIL!

Step 5: cosrx - aha/bha clarifying treatment toner - another toner, but I only use this 2-3x a week - clears whiteheads and blackheads

OR Pixi - Glow Tonic Toner

- it’s a chemical treatment toner that peels off dead skin without you noticing it. you can use this if you want quick results.

Step 6: Nature Republic - The First Essence - calming on skin and it doesn’t break me out

Step 7: cosrx - Mela14 White Ampule - brightens complexion and removes dark pigmentation on skin

Step 8: Nature Republic - Vitamin B5 Emulsion - for more radiant skin - moisturizes

Step 9: cosrx - Aloe Vera Oil-Free Moisture Cream - cooling and recommended for acne prone skin

Step 10: Laneige - Water Sleeping Mask - MY HOLIEST GRAIL and I highly recommend it - gives you an A+++ skin in the morning

These skincare steps are good for sensitive skin and they’re all alcohol-free, so enjoy!

Edit: For face sheets, I use TonyMoly Lemon Mask Sheet (Brightening) in which I apply on my face 3x a week after Step 7.

Review of SON&PARK's True Black Eye Pen Liner

SON&PARK is a Korean brand created by two makeup artists. They create makeup as well as skincare products, these products are usually created with dewy and glowing skin in mind. Their True Black Eye Pen Liner is designed to provide long-lasting defining eye make up. Pen type eyeliner expresses continuous vivid lines with one application. True black formula that defines eyes with a one-touch application. This eyeliner retails for between $13-25 USD, you can get it here for $27 USD + free shipping.

Ingredients

Water, Acrylates Copolymer, Pigment Black 6, Butylene Glycol, Acrylates/Ethylhexyl Acrylate/HEMA Copolymer, Styrene/Acrylates Copolymer, Alcohol, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Ceteth-10, Ammonia, Benzyl Alcohol, Acrylates/Octylacrylamide Copolymer, Simethicone, Triethanolamine, Caprylic/ Capric Triglyceride, Aminomethyl Propanol, Laureth-21

I received this free from Bling Dear for my honest review, this post is not sponsored.

The liner has a pretty fine pen tip. It contains 1 gram (0.03 oz) and has a light, sharp scent.

The black pigment is very strong.

It does chip away kind of easily, however.

It only requires basic cleansing water or oil to take it off easily.

It doesn't leave any staining or residue.

It's pretty easy to get a basic wing. (In case anyone's interested, the inner corner highlight is Urban Decay's Winterfell Snow gel liner, Mascara is Laura Mercier's Caviar Volume Panoramic Mascara, the lipstick is Jeffree Star's Velour Liquid Lipstick in Unicorn Blood and lastly, the BB cushion is Etude House's Any Cushion Cream Filter SPF33 PA++ in Tan.)

There's a problem when you try to go back over the liner with another layer, it dries too quickly and it becomes crumbly and flaky. (Lipstick here is Jeffree Star's Velour Liquid Lipstick in Crocodile Tears.)

Recommended use is to create a line from beginning to end along the lash line. It's a sliding-soft eyeliner that defines the eyes with vivid color. After using, the first thing I noticed with this liner is that the tip is nice and sharp and easy to use, there is a light scent to it, but I don't think it's strong enough to be a problem or irritating. The liner does dry quickly, however, and it's hard to go back over it fast enough to avoid flaking or scratching parts of the liner off. It comes off very easily as well, whether by flaking or scrubbing with a bit of water, which can be good and bad. I don't think this is ideal for someone takes their time with liner or possibly for people who have very hooded lids. I'd recommend this to anyone interested in a precise liner with strong pigment.

What I like: this liner is pretty easy to apply, the pen tip is precise and you can get a good thin line and winged liner. It's very pigmented and it's also easy to remove and it wasn't irritating and it doesn't transfer. What I don't like: this dries too quickly and it makes it easier to cause flaking or scratch it off when you try to go back over it with another layer.

Pros:

Very black and pigmented

Fine tip

Easily makes thin lines and winged liner

Not irritating

Doesn't transfer

Cons:

Dries too quickly and flakes

Hard to add another layer

Would I buy this?

No

My Skincare Routine

Hey everyone!

Sharing with you some products that I’m currently using and loving.

After I cleanse and exfoliate my face, I move on to toner. The toner that I’m using is SON&PARK Beauty Water. I love it because it feels so refreshing. I use it with a cotton pad. I only use it when I feel the need to thoroughly clean my face after a whole day of wearing makeup. Next, I put an eye cream. The L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Laser Renew Eye Cream (what a mouthful) has a cooling tip applicator. Although, I prefer to use my ring finger when applying eye cream however, the tip applicator is good for when you wake up in the morning with puffy eyes. For moisturiser, I use Missha Time Revolution Night Repair Ampoule (another mouthful) at night and Snody Propolis Honey Ampoule Light in the morning. Both ampoules are very good for moisturising my face. It doesn’t feel oily at all. During my troubled skin days, around the time I’m about to get my period, I use Benton Aloe Propolis Soothing Gel and it helps and soothes my skin. I finish it off with moisturising my lips and I’m using Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Lip Balm. 

Tell me what your favourite skincare products are and I may also give them a try :)

Son & Park Liquid Eyeliner

So I decided to be adventurous with eyeliners after watching an unearthly lot of youtube videos and finally settling on Son & Park’s -- and I am now able to give my own two cents!  But before that, let me just say that I haven’t quite explored many other options. I am truly a creature of habit, and from the time I started wearing eyeliner regularly some 8 years ago (and also, eyeliner is really the only make-up item I wear regularly), I have started on The Body Shop’s liquid eyeliner. I never really tried anything else, not because The Body Shop’s eyeliner was perfect for my needs, but simply because I am a creature of habit. In fact, it wasn’t perfect for my needs and my decision to get adventurous stemmed a little from frustration of it smudging all over, leaving me looking ready for Halloween after every boxing class. It was not sweat-proof and smudged into black tears and left my eyes stinging every gym session and every time I was caught in the rain with fall definitely here. That said, if I had a good and regular day, this liquid eyeliner lasts well through the day and more than anything I was much too used to the applicator brush tip to embrace change. So without The Body Shop in Boston (...I think?), every time I was back in Singapore, I would buy a few to stock up and last a year on this liquid eyeliner. 

Now though, I’m finally ready to embrace change because I have been increasingly going for after-work gym sessions that I’d like the eyeliner to survive through. 

First impression: The brush tip was stiffer than The Body Shop’s but also flexible enough and very easy to control. The application was very much like a felt-tip marker. 

Now... how does it last through the day?

Please pardon my derp face but here is the Son & Park eyeliner not just after 12 hours but also after a really really sweaty boxing session -- Color me thoroughly impressed, Son & Park. There is very little fading in spite of having been through a lot of perspiration, and the lines are still well-defined. Most importantly, nothing smudged during the gym session to cause my eyes to sting. Perfect.

Here is a picture of it removed -- I have a small gripe about how flaky it is, so it leaves some little bits on my lids and some sneak into the inner tear ducts when I was trying to remove it. It’s a small gripe nonetheless and it’s still rather easy to remove. 

Verdict: Highly recommend and will re-purchase -- it may well be my next mainstay.

son&park beauty water 

Duration: 9/3/2016 - now 

Application: I have used this every single day since I opened it-- in both my AM and PM routine. Sometimes I would even use it middle of the day to freshen up before reapplying something to hydrate myself. I would also wipe down my face with this after masking because I don’t like the slimy/icky feeling afterwards (and I am too lazy to pat in excess essence at this point). I just wipe my entire face ++ make sure to clean my neck too. 

Comment: The first week was the most magical-- it smoothened and cleared my face a lot?? But I also don’t know if I was just clearing up cause I was finishing up my period cycle, LOL. Well that aside, I still love it a lot because it does 👌 fine job at what it claims to do. It cleanses well without being stripping (at all! okay maybe a little bit because it does contain alcohol but definitely negligible!!). It keeps excess sebum away and softens my skin. ;))) yaaas. I haven’t used that many toners, but I don’t think I am venturing out anymore. This has secured the holy grail toner position in my faves. 

Rating: 10/10

s/n: I am extremely generous with every use (I drench the cotton pad), which is probably why I am almost done with the 340ml bottle (welps).
