i cracked my computer screen again, so i'm updating from the study pod in my dorm.
Describe your facial routine, i.e. daily, weekly, monthly.
brands have been somewhat subject to change and i'd like to point out that probably only until about a year ago did i start washing my face with actual soap. yeah. water only.
Daily
cleansing: GINVERA green tea exfoliating/emollient gel, CLARINS gentle exfoliating refiner (not daily..)
toning: KIEHL'S cucumber toner
moisturising: CLARINS hydra-matte day lotion, KIEHL'S ultra facial moisturizer with SPF 15, BENEFIT you rebel tinted moisturizer with SPF 15 (switching it up a little)
Twice weekly
eyebrows. maybe a bit more often than twice weekly.
Weekly
nothing i don't do daily.
Monthly
see weekly.
15 Health/Beauty routines you swear by
01. long showers. solve every problem. also have to wash your hair / get your face wet for it to work.
02. every so often i wash my hair without shampoo or just let it get wet.
03. nowadays i actually don't really wash my hair very often, i used to every single day but not anymore. but anyway. all john frieda products from brilliant brunette (which i use now) to the beach blonde stuff (which doesn't really matter if you're blonde but they made this really nice beachy surf spray stuff, and their shampoo smells like mint)
04. exfoliating- st. ive's apricot scrub in invigorating.
05. origins ginger cloud lotion, jergens naturally smooth moisturiser. johnson & johnson's baby oil (doubles up as an AMAZING makeup remover).
06. rosebud salve, fresh sugar lip treatment with SPF 15 for the lips.
07. once in a while exfoliate completely, shave your legs really well, moisturize everything really well (get a friend to do your back), clip nails short, paint them, use hand lotion, do your eyebrows really well, wear perfume (guys or girls perfume), don't put in your contacts, don't go outside, stay at home and read magazines. naked.
08. take care of the skin on your back.
09. also, do not leave the house without SPF 15.
10. carry some kind of chapstick wherever you go.
11. you don't need tons of water or sleep or exercise, you need a good tinted moisturizer and nars blush in orgasm. hahaa. it's the best blush in the entire world.
12. toenails - always short and clean.
13. pick one or more extraordinarily beautiful people that you really admire / respect / lust after to... admire or respect or lust after. but
14. periodically get someone you know that thinks you're extraordinarily beautiful and that really admires / respects / lusts after you to boost your ego. or at least tell that they love you or whatever.
yeah i think that's about it.
