So I was never really that into skincare up until recently.
I was wondering what you guys do for your skincare routine. Products used (brands, etc.) and how you guys like it (would you recommend it? rate out of 5? etc.)
I don't have a skin care routine since I just use whatever I want to use at the moment but I'm hoping to just develop something as I start to care more about skincare. Usually I just wash my face with whatever facewash I want with hot water (since it opens up pores) then after I finish washing it I splash my face with cold water (to close the pores) and then apply moisturizer when needed (I know, I should really just do it all the time).
Recently I've been using products with charcoal in it. The activated charcoal is supposed to soak up the toxins or something and deep clean your pores for blackheads and whatnot.
Products:
Mandom's Charcoal Facial Scrub: I'm currently using this and I really like it. It foams up as you apply and also has little scrubby things to help scrub your face as you apply. It gives a cooling sensation as well as moisturization. I honestly can't think of any cons for this. I'd give it a 5/5.
Daiso's Charcoal Natural Pack: This is a face mask I actually only purchased today. Got it for 1.50 at the store. I read a bunch of reviews on it and people really like it so I thought I'd give it a try. I tried it earlier and it's kind of annoying to apply because it is pretty messy and pretty painful to peel off. It is a peel off mask so you have to make sure you don't get it on any hairs or you're gonna experience some serious pain and maybe some facial hair loss. I've only used it once so I don't think it's fair for me to rate this product yet.
Clinique's Moisturizing Gel: I've been using this for a while and I think it does it's job good enough. Though sometimes, I wish my skin would soak up more of this though because it doesn't get as moisturized as I wish. 3/5
Shiseido Hadasui Lotion: I've only used this a few times but I can tell you I like it more than the Clinique one. Where I purchased it, they had a bottle of 400ml and a bottle of 250ml with a spray container which was even more expensive than the 400ml one. So I bought the 400ml one and realized how great it would have been to have a spray bottle. So I just put it in a spray bottle.. no need to pay more for less! It says it's a lotion but it's more of a jelly liquid which does moisturize my face well and can also be used as a toner. 5/5
I'll post more later! Tell me your skincare routine and what products you use and recommend!
