How I take care of my face



I confess that I have this fetish in taking care of my face.  Maybe because I grew up watching my mama as she did her daily beauty regimen and had maintained wrinkle-free and glowing face until the age of 60.   And the amazing thing is, she did not use any beauty product in the market.   Everything was natural.

Obviously, I copied her beauty ritual which are cleansing daily with mild soap, exfoliating twice a week with young papaya leaf and moisturize with banana paste mixed with milk and honey(leave on face for 20-30 min. then rinse).  However, because I’m a lazy bum I made some modification on the stuff she used;  and also I have some supplementary things that I realized my face loves.

So here’s my own beauty regimen:
A.    Daily
  •          Cleanse with facial foam
  •          Tone ( I don’t rub my face, I kind of massage the cotton ball in circular motion)
  •          Moisturize ( I still use the banana paste sometimes, but often do this with olive oil or moisturizing cream)

      B. Twice a week
  •          Exfoliate with oatmeal
  •          Avocado paste ( still a moisturizer but I leave this on my face 30 min- 1 hr.)





And  " Don't sleep with your make up on" and "Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day"  probably trite but totally helpful.
