Day & Night Time Skincare Routine

Hi all!

Here's my current day & night time skincare routine. I've been using the same products for some time because they have kept my skin in a good condition so far. Most of the products I am currently using are from Innisfree. I find that their products are affordable & work really well for me.

1. Innisfree Bija - Anti-Trouble Facial Foam
This is my second tube. I bought my first in Korea and I loved it so much that I bought another when Innisfree opened in Singapore. One tube really has a lot of product and my first tube actually lasted 6 months! I use it twice daily. I was tempted to try another facial foam from another Innisfree line, but hey, if it ain't broke, don't fix it right? I highly recommend this even if you have normal skin!

2. Etude House - Wonder Pore Freshner
For those who are unfamiliar, this is a toner. This is also my second 500ml bottle! It is an inexpensive product that does what it claims. This is the only Etude House skincare product that I've ever tried. My only complain is the big difference between the retail price in Korea and Singapore. In Korea, it is only 15,000 won (even cheaper during sales) but it retails for >$30 in Singapore!

3. Biore - UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence (SPF50+ PA+++)
I currently have 3 sunscreen products but this is the one I reach for the most often. It is so lightweight & easy to apply. I also do not feel like I have anything on my face. It is also SPF50 & PA+++! It retails for $18.90 in Singapore but I got this in Malaysia at a discounted price of $10!

4. Innisfree - Green Tea Pure Cream
My favourite moisturiser ever! I've gone through 3 tubs and just started on my 4th tub. Now I only use it in the morning. It absorbs really quickly into my skin, which I really like because I'm usually in a hurry in the morning. It is lightweight and spreads on really easily and makes it even easier to apply my sunscreen on moisturised skin.

1. Innisfree - Green Tea Pure Cleansing Water
This is a recent purchase and I have been enjoying it. I needed a less heavy-duty cleanser to wash of light makeup or sunscreen during the mid-day/evenings when I get home from a day out. Using my usual oil makeup cleanser is a bit too much sometimes. I used to use the Biore Milk Cleanser but I ran out of those. This really cleanse my skin well and I've seen significant results. I will review this soon.

2. Innisfree - Green Tea Mineral Mist
If I do wash my face mid-day or in the evenings when I get home, I'll spray on this mist to keep my skin moisturised. Yes, I'm a bit crazy about moisturising these days because like I've said before, after reading many interviews and articles, I'm convinced that good skin = moisturised skin. Not just for acne or dry skin, but it can also help prevent wrinkles in future.

1. Innisfree - Bija Anti-trouble Facial Foam

2. Etude House - Wonder Pore Freshner

3. Innisfree - Green Tea Seed Serum
I love the Innisfree Green Tea line and this is also one of their star products. It smells good (like the rest of the Green Tea line) and it gets absorbed into my skin really easily, especially on those days I use my silicone face pad to exfoliate my skin. My skin became a lot softer & smoother after I started using this. I already have a second bottle as backup!

4. Innisfree - The Green Tea Seed Cream
This is the 100ml special xmas version. I finished a 50ml before this and I decided to repurchase. This is a slightly heavier than the usual 50ml plastic tub. The consistency is thicker than the Green Tea Pure Cream. I feel that it is more moisturising and more rich than the pure cream, but I still like the pure cream for being more lightweight and watery, if that makes sense.

5. Burt's Bees - Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream
My fave cuticle care product. When my cuticles look dry, I use this and it usually looks a lot better the next day. It seems small but a little goes a long way and I can't seem to ever finish mine. It also smells good. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a nail care product! This costs S$9 at Sephora but it is worth it!

6. Innisfree - Eco Science Eye Cream
My first ever eye cream! I bought this when it was on sale. To be honest I have yet to see any significant results on my eyes but I guess eye creams are more meant to be for prevention than cure. This is lightweight and the pump works well to dispense a small amount each time.

7. Crazy Rumours - Pink Grapefruit Juice 100% Natural Lip Balm
One of my favourite lip balms I've ever tried! I hardly use lip balms in Singapore but when I go to cold countries, they are my must-haves! My lips get dry really easily and I have to apply it religiously when I go overseas. I bought this because it is pink grapefruit!!! I mean, I bought this because my lips are a bit dry lately. I like this because it doesn't feel so sticky on my lips and they have worked well in keeping my lips from cracking. I will try more flavours from Crazy Rumours in future!

8.  Innisfree - Jeju Gardenia Hand Cream
This is actually just one of the hand creams I am using right now. I've sniffed all the "flavours" available at the Innisfree store and I like this the most! It smells nice & keeps my hands moisturised. Highly recommended!

1. Daiso Silicone Face pad
This is my 2nd silicone face pad. I bought them from Daiso for only $2. Cheap, but they work well in exfoliating. I could feel that my skin is smoother when I rinse my face. I also find that my skin absorbs my serum faster after I exfoliate my skin. I use this 2/3 times a week. Cheap but it does what it is supposed to do!

2. Innisfree Capsule Masks
My first non-sheet masks! Each capsule is good for 2-3 uses but sometimes I find that I can get 4 uses. It really depends on how much you apply each time. I buy those that are meant to be used overnight because it is just more convenient to be able to go to sleep & just wash it off the next day!

3. Innisfree It's Real Sheet Masks
One of my favourite sheet masks brand. They always smell good and the scent doesn't smell very artificial. I've ever opened a random brand of mask I got free & it had a strong chemical smell that put me off and I just didn't feel like putting it on my face. Sheet masks are good to keep your skin moisturised! I use them 2-3 times weekly too (although I've been forgetting to use it these days)

4. My Beauty Diary Sheet Masks
This brand used to be a lot more popular when the sheet masks trend took off! This is a Taiwan brand. And while many other people have moved on to other brands, I still use this because it is affordable and it is easy to apply. Some masks have way too many cuts but this is just right. They have changed the sheet mask recently & it has a lot more cuts & is also paraben-free now.
