Beauty// Tag: Skincare


I was tagged by the sweetest Chloe from Clo's Beauty Spot to do a skincare post. I love reading her blog. Chloe always has good tips and beautiful photos!

I am a little princess about skin care. I buy so many products and made quite many mistakes. After years and tears, here are some of my tips and a few of my favourite products I would like to share with you. Hope it is helpful. If you have any good tips or questions. Leave me a comment or tweet me @wentalkstoshoes

So here we go!

Describe your skincare routine in 5 words:
Exfoliate, Cleanse, Moisture, SPF, (Drink) Water


What’s your skin type?
I am extreme-combination. If that is a type! I have fairly oily cheeks and chin, but the rest of my face is extremely dry.
 
Top Blemish Zapper
I am lucky. Rarely get spots. But when I do. They are huge and leave a dark pigmentation for months. My top tip is to thoroughly cleanse, exfoliate, and put some spot treatment. I use Neutrogena spot stress control. I find it very strong and effective, so I 
just use it on the blemish area.


Face Wipes, yay or nay?
Nay, I don't normally use face wipes. Unless I am travelling or on the go. Otherwise I stick to cleansing lotion and cream.

Toner, yay or nay?
Yay, I like toner. I find it gives an extra cleanse and at the same time moisturize the skin.


High-end skincare or high-end makeup?
I have both. But if I really have to choose one, I would go for High-end makeup. I am just loving all those beautiful packaging, as if I were collecting gems.


What’s the most unusual skincare product you've tried?
Yogurt facial! Perhaps it is not that unusual. I would like to think I am very brave in terms of trying new skin products but I don't think I have tried anything that unusual or horrible yet.
Has anyone tried the yogurt facial, too?

Tell us your top skincare tip
My tip is: less is definitely more. Don't pile on tons of skin care products. That would only make your skin worse and difficult to put make up on. Really understand your skin's problems and find the best suited product for yourself.


Here are some of my all-time favourite skincare products and new discovery. I  recently fall in love with products that can do double-duty! I know some of them are quite pricey. But think, if you only need to get one product that does all the job.. it is money well-spent!




 1. Caudalie Beauty Elixir

This is great as a toner and setting the make-up. I put it in my make-up bag and carry it with me. It is a spray, so it is great to use when your skin needs some extra moisture and you don't want to ruin your make up. By the way, it smells wonderful!

2. Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair

This is my favourite night product at the moment. I use it all over my face, even around my eye area. I would apply a little lotion around my dry area as well. But most times I just use this serum alone. I really love this serum, it really makes my skin look better. No wonder it is Estee Lauder's best seller for decades.

3. Murad Essential-C Day Moisture SPF30

If you have read my blog about The Sale Must Go On! You will know how much I love this product. It is moisture and SPF all together. I bought this as the birthday present for Mr. P's Mother, she loved it too!

4. Garnier Caffeine 2-in-1 Tinted Eye Roller

Yup, from the name, you know I will buy this product. Skincare, concealing, anti-puffyness, all in one go! It doesn't give a great coverage though. So I will suggest you to put it in your handbag and re-apply every once a while. What I love about this is the metal applicator. It really can massage the skin underneath your eyes without too much rubbing and tearing.

Last but not least! Two little treats that can make your skin look pretty...


Almond and dark chocolate. But be careful girls, it has to be whole nut and not crushed almonds. As for dark chocolate, it has to be over 70% and you only need 1-2 squares a day. Don't eat too much, otherwise it will make you fat!
