Skin Care

                               Update!

Wow! My last post was in March... I completely forgot about my blog when exams began. But now that's over, I can finally relax and continue writing on my blog. I will definitely try to post more stuff. Maybe more fashion posts. 

So everybody knows that when you're stress, your skin tends to breakout. Well, that's what happened to me and I can't handle seeing it. I did some research and two EXTREMELY easy DIYs. 

                     Egg White Mask

This egg mask is cheap and really great! It tightens your skin and minimizes the appearance of your pores. It also makes your skin smooth and brightens up your complexion. I just began using this mask yesterday so I can't say much about how it is for me but I can definitely say my face is a lot smoother.

                        Sugar Scrub

Extremely simple. Mix 1/2 cup of sugar with 1/4 cup of olive oil and voila! I like adding some lemon juice because it makes it smell great, evens out my skin tone and gives me a brighter complexion. The sugar in this scrub helps remove the dead skin cells which is important for having smooth and beautiful skin and it also cleans out the pores. This scrub can be used on your arms, legs, back, stomach and even your face! All you do is rub it over the area you want to exfoliate and massage it for a minute and then leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes. After that, wash it off and you have nice smooth legs!

I read that I shouldn't use these DIYs more than 2 times a weeks so of course I have to do something else to maintain nice skin. And well, that's washing it twice a day and moisturizing. I use the Vichy Normaderm Purifying Cleansing Gel, Pore-tightening lotion and Anti-Acne Hydrating lotion.

 This actually works really well for me. After using it for a week, I noticed that I had smoother skin and that I had less pimples. Sadly it's bit pricey.

Now I don't know if this worked that much. My skin doesn't feel any different from when I began using it. Maybe it's just me. And this is also quite pricey. Well maybe only because I find everything over 10$ expensive.

Now this lotion is amazing! It treated my acne and my skin was kept hydrated. You don't need to apply much, only a pea size for the whole entire face. Also like the other products, it's on the pricey side.

I use the purifying gel and hydrating lotion every day, twice a day. And for the pore-tightening lotion, once every two days. 

It's so hard to keep my skin acne free. And with my extremely oily skin... *sigh* I'm so jealous of those who had flawless skin. Anyways, that's all for today. Bye now! >.O
