My Skin Care Routine Using The Ordinary Products

Image
By
The Ordinary brand is such a simple yet effective solution to skin care problems and I've been experimenting with different products from the brand. 

I've tried:

Lactic acid 

Marine hyaluronics 

Granactive retinoid 

Niacinamide 

Vitamin C 23% suspension

Hemi squalene oil 

Borage seed oil 

Glycolic toning solution 

The spf 15 

Looking at the list, it's amazing what a year can do! I've had most of the serums for more than 6 months and it's certainly worth every penny.

I don't use the lactic acid anymore but the others feature in my routine all the time, except Borage seed oil which is for my hair. 

Marine hyaluronics 

I use this after my toner to hydrate the skin..

I follow with either Niacinamide or vitamin C serum. 

I use the glycolic toning solution about 2x a week after cleansing. Check here  for the reviews of these serums. 

The Granactive retinoid is a night serum which has anti aging benefits

The last exfoliating product I want to try is the BHA peeling solution after which I'll move on to more of oils. 

In addition, I'll be trying the Azelaic acid, Ascorbic acid with alpha arbutin, the retinol 1% and a couple of the antioxidants too.

Stay tuned for more skin care updates.

How I make forever Clair Skin care products work for me

By
I've heard ladies complain about the forever Claire Skin care products  not working for them. Well, I nearly became one until I tweaked how I use it and since then, it's been a jolly good ride. I started using the Forever Claire products in July 2013 or so. What I've been doing is to using a cleanser first before applying any of the products. Well, I discovered the reason why the product didn't seem to be working well on its own. When using the cleanser, I'll dab a bit of cotton in it to clean my face. Apparently, it wasn't the cleanser that was doing the work, it was the cotton. The cotton was getting rid of dead cells by acting as an "exfoliating" material. It was cleaning the skin surface. One evening, I skipped the cleansing and decided to follow Hubby's method of cleaning his face. I used my sponge to gently rub the FC product on the face. This face scrubbing technique left my skin feeling soft and smooth just like when I use the cotton and cl...

The 60 Seconds Skin Care Rule

By
The 60 seconds rule regarding washing your face is a great technique that has been used by a lot of skin care addicts.  When washing your face, the one trick that can make a lot of difference in your skin is washing for 60 seconds! Once you apply your facial wash/cleanser/soap, you massage or sweep it around your face for 60 seconds. This allows the cleanser to penetrate the pores and clear the dirt off your skin. All the make up  can also be easily absorbed by your cleansing oil too. I began doing this technique a few weeks ago and it's definitely helped improve the feel of my skin after cleansing.  (check shop.ghanaianemprezz.com for all skin care products)
