Skin Care: Year end hoarding

My skin is horrible these days. ( T-T)~ Several months of stress, not sticking to my skin care routine, and not to mention the most crucial part - not drinking enough water.

Working alongside younger people that take better care of themselves made me rethink how I present myself to people. I will start being vain again. haha!

So here's my December stash. I can't wait to try them. *happy*

edit: So I already tried these and sadly the only one working is the Emu oil. I think my skin need some other type of lotion. (It's super cold!) I'll use the bare it all cream come summertime. Love the mint!

My go to skincare line ... please don't get discontinued ( T-T)~

This made me a bit sad :( I don't see much effect maybe because I don't have the whole set? Still considering how much I paid for it I expected something to happen. :/

A renewed love

...for skin care products. ♪( ^-^)/

And general skin management. Ah regrets tsk tsk. I wasted all those time and now I have bad skin! *cry* Anyway since I'm losing weight and trying to eat as healthy as possible, I searched for more natural ways to deal with my skin as well. Here are some helpful links:

• The Skin Commandments 
• Your Skin problems solved.

and I love reading others sharing stories of their various "experimentation" with skin care

• Eula of Eulasleeps is a doctor by profession. I found her blog through her craft posts and found out that she's also fond of skin care products! I love reading her reviews, she's so happy and eager to find good products to use. (〃＾-＾)

Anyway on to the products above:

• Facial Wash [Ponds No Blackheads] - I only use a tinsy tiny amount of this because it tends to dry my skin (especially now with the cold weather). I might switch to a different cleanser this summer. I'm back to experimenting on facial cleansers again because Loreal Pure Zone (my trusty skin care series) was discontinued.
• Night Moisturizer for face & neck [Nivea Creme] - very greasy but it works wonders in getting rid of dry skin. I use a separate tube on my hands and feet too! However, I read it doesn't have anti-aging properties. Still I recommend keeping this in your kikay kit.
• Day Moisturizer [Celeteque Sun care matte SPF30] - This little tube goes a long way. It gives off a white mask so I only use a small amount.
• Facial Scrub / Exfoliate [St. Ives Apricot Scrub] - I use this 3-4 times a week. Usually when my blackheads are more prominent. I need to get a facial soon! urgh
• Daily Sunblock [Dermplus SPF35 Sunblock]
• Beach & Sports Sunblock [Banana Boat SPF80]

Not in picture:

• Facial Mask [Snoe White Vitamin C-rich Calamansi Whitening Detox Clay Mask] Reviewed by Eula and thought it was something I could try temporarily because as usual I can't find my trusty brand of mud mask again. *sigh*
• Hand Cream [Ahava Deadsea Water] Trying this out for a website. Will post a semi-review next time! :)

Till next month?! haha
