If you are new to this whole skincare process, the first thing you have to do is cleanse. Even though there are now plenty of new facial cleansers available in the market, I feel like nothing beats our trusty old Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser – a non-soap cleanser that can be used with or without water. This product is also suitable for all skin types, even sensitive and baby skin, so you won’t have to worry about irritations.

There are also tons of silicone facial cleansers online but I have personally tried this one! It is a gentle exfoliator and massager as it turns your facial wash into a foam. Besides being cute, the octopus shape makes it easier to hold than the others. 😉

One of the top-rated toners in beauty stores and an affordable option is Skin Genie’s Apple Cider Vinegar Toner with Vodka and Witch Hazel. As the name suggests, it is formulated with apple cider vinegar, Russian vodka, and witch hazel, as well as apple oil, lemon, papaya, tea tree, and peppermint extracts. With these ingredients’ anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal properties, this toner keeps your skin hydrated while removing dead cells and excess oil (thus, preventing pimples).

One of the biggest skincare misconceptions is that you don’t have to moisturize when you have oily skin because girl, you sooo do. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP! Although if you have oily skin, you might want to opt for Nature Republic’s Aloe Vera Soothing Gel – a fast-absorbing gel that won’t leave a greasy feel.  Aside from the face, this moisturizer which can also be used as a mask works for the hair and body, too.

Sure, sheet masks are great… but have you tried a cold sheet mask? The cooling sensation from skincare products perks up your skin for a healthy glow. Plus, keeping them refrigerated may help extend their shelf life. 😉

I super love face mists because it instantly refreshes your skin, especially being in a country with a humid climate. With or without makeup, it is such a quick and hassle-free fix! The Fresh Jeju Aloe Ice Face and Body Mist gently moisturizes, soothes, and refreshes damaged skin from UV rays and heat.

Here’s a PSA: stop rubbing your face when removing your makeup!!! Use a 100% natural remover like the Human Nature Gentle Cleansing oil that MELTS makeup plus nourishes your skin. Gently massage 2 to 3 pumps on your face and then use your facial wash afterward or just rinse it off with warm water. This product also does not contain pore-clogging mineral oil and drying alcohol. Trust me, your older self will thank you for it. 😉
