Aging

It's weird in your late 20's when you notice lines on your face. Lucky for me Asians age really well however unlucky for me I have a habit of drinking and smoking which is quite possibly the worst thing for your skin. So I try in vain to offset years of bad habits with a very strict skin regimen.

My nightly routine consist of:

Makeup remover: Pond's Cold Cream

The old classic. Asian girls wear a ton of eye makeup to try to appear to have eyes, preferably anime eyes. I have tried a million different eye makeup removers (astringent types are the worst, so drying. makeup removing clothes usually require me to use 4 a night to take off all my eyeliner, mascara, heavy shadows). There is a reason why Pond's has been around forever, it comes off quickly, it moisturizes while removing makeup, my eyes feel so silky after.


Face Wash: St Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish and Blackhead Control. I am a creature of habit and I have been using this on and off since I was 15.


Night Cream: Dior Hydralife Cream


Eye Cream: DHC Q10 Eye Cream (Japanese brand I picked up in Korea that I am hooked on)


Wrinkle Serum for my smile lines: Neutrogena Ageless Intensives. This product sucks, Peter bought it when I pointed out his forehead lines. Never trust a man to do a woman's job. Someone recommend me a good wrinkle cream.


Twice a week mask: Bliss Triple Oxygenating Mask

Wakes up your skin when it looks tired and sallow, also smells yummy. I am a sucker for orange scented products.



and finally I take 1 fish oil pill a day. If you isn't on fish oil pills, you're gonna look terrible in a few years. Just sayin.


Although when I start having money again, I want to get the whole line of SK II products and see what all the hoopla is about.

Feel free to share your can't live without products.
