Hello there my Dear Hivers, Greetings from the Philippines. Today I will share with you my "Me time" and the products that I am currently using, me time is non negotiable, just like what the famous quote said "You cannot pour from an empty cup", and so in order for us to take care of our loved ones, we have to take good care of ourselves first, It's not selfishness, It's Self-love.
I start my day a little late on my rest day, I always wake up late, but I wake up extra late at around 11:00am during my off time 馃榿, firstly, I brush my teeth, I am actually relieved when I heard that Hailey Bieber is not washing her face in the morning, because I do it too, especially now that I am working from home, I avoid over washing my face because I have a really sensitive skin, I only spray mist and apply sunscreen and done, just like Hailey, I solely rely on my night skin routine, I am doing this routine for 3 years now,and so far, so good 馃槉 then, I will drink water, I also speak all of my goals and manifestations in the very first glass of water, I have learnt this from one ony my friend who exercise yoga, then I will have my coffee, eat light breakfast and exercise, I exercise thrice a week, I don't really go to the gym, I download videos of pilates, barre and so on, then that I will just copy it for my exercising session.

My Overused Yoga Mat 馃槄 planning to buy a new one, a much sturdy one.
Then , after an hour of rest, I can finally eat lunch, It's good that we are far from the city, in this way, we avoid eating out.
after lunch I will either take a nap or play with my dog or cats or go out.
Evening time is my favorite, I take extra care of my skin, I only use products that my skin are already familiar with or used to, I also make sure to check the ingredients and make sure it is non comedogenic so it won't clog my pores, recently, Pond's released a new product lines and they are the "Bright Miracle" skincare, it has day cream, facial wash and serum and so on, they also have this "Hydra Miracle" that contains biome and ceramide which promotes resiliency for the skin for the harsh chemicals we use such as retinol, niacinamide and more,I only bought the packets size for trials, thank goodness for trial packs, you don't have to buy the whole tube only to get disappointed when the product isn't really good, I also bought their Bright Miracle THYMO-BHA Anti Acne Facial wash, I no longer have break outs but I feel like prevention is better than cure, right? I bought all of these last week, so I already started using them and so far, I am not experiencing any reactions, thankfully, so here are my step by step night routine.
First, I take a bath, I don't towel dry my face, I let it air dry for added moisture, and then I soak my face with the Nivea Bright Pore Minimizer Toner, for about 15 minutes,(yeah that long, to make the most out of that toner 馃槀) then I let my skin rest for another 5 minutes, I make sure the toner is already well absorbed before I put on the retinol serum, the brand I use is The Ordinary in 0.5% Squalene, I use retinol thrice a week, and on days I don't use it, I replace it with COSRX Galactomyces Tone Balancing Essense, a lot of people are swearing that this formulation is similar to SK-II, that sounds so promising, but I believe SK-II is different as they use "Pitera" which is considered the probiotics for the skin, thus the price, you have to becareful in using COSRX Galactomyces because it contains galactomyces ferment filtrate (a kind of fungus) that can moisturize and brighten up the skin, so it can actually worsen fungal acne. I only use it once or twice a week and so far my skin is not reacting to it, but remember to patch test, and NEVER use your skin, especially your face as a guinea pig, please no, I let it completely dry for about 15- 20 minutes, I also read books or watch something in between, and then lastly I put the Pond's Bright Miracle Serum to seal in everything. That's it, I make sure my night routine stays simple that way, I don't really follow the trending 9- 12 Korean skin care routine, that's actually not applicable for the people in my country, as the climate is Humid.
for the body, I scrub thrice a week and I use this product from Thailand that is very famous in my country, it leaves the skin very smooth and soft, after taking bath I make it a habit to put the moisturizer/ lotion immediately while my skin is damp, because it locks in moisture.
That's it, those are my simple routines to ensure my I am always at my best, admit it, if you look and feel good about yourself, it doesn't just boost your confidence, it promotes over-all well being, as well as your relationships, so no matter how busy you are, take time to take care of yourself, your routine doesn't have to be grand, it could be as simple as putting face mask while reading books and having homemade foot spa.
Thank you dear Friends for visiting and reading my post. I hope everyone will have a productive and good week ahead.
