5-Step Skincare

What I said about the room tour...well lets just skip that for now (:

Q:How do you get beautiful skin like Japanese & Korean (Asian) Women?
A:THE 5 Step Skincare routine !

Sounds like a long process right? actually not really I do it every night & morning & in the end i feel super refreshed! It's the best feeling before going to bed. haha Ever since i started the routine my face has stayed clear, smooth, and had drastically gotten lighter !! (: so just follow these steps...(& yes this looks like a lot to read but trust me its worth it !)

First tie your hair up or just make sure your hair is out of your face.

STEP 1. Double Cleanse
(Double is used to say to make sure you cleanse your face twice a day, Morning & Night.)
I usually use Shiseido's Ultimate Cleansing Oil
If you want to buy this i suggest you buying the Shiseido Fun In The Sun Kit, from sephora instead. It not only comes with the cleanser & shiseido's super greatttt sunblock (i highly recommend) it comes with a sun protection eye cream which I LOVE to use as an eye primer.



but currently I use The Ginza Creamy Cleansing Foam because i got a free sample pack after buying Shiseido's Elixir white emulsion back in Japan.
another great product I used is Cetaphil's Gentle Face cleanser

Massage the cleanser in a circular motion while applying & washing it off.

STEP 2. MASSAGE&MASK (Used 2-3 times a week a massage cream or facial scrubs then a mask)

Currently I use Bodia Jasmine Rice & Rose Facial Scrub (to be completely honest I have no idea where you can pick this up unless you live in Cambodia :/ but its an amazing product & if I can find a way to sell it myself I will DEFINITELY tell you guys ! & since its pretty strong i use it both as a mask and massage.)

Other Products: St. Ives Apricot Invigorating Scrub (one of the cheapest & best scrub i have used) & for masks I like to create my own(i sense another post coming up haha (: ) or use elilanto skin care mask which i got in cambodia also when i find a link to buy it ill post it!

STEP 3. TONE
This one is simple just after cleansing or your mask use a toner
for a more organic feel & whitening effect i use fresh rice water or japanese sake.(any question about these please comment or just wait ill post up all the information youll need to know about it.)
after this i like to add I use Shiseido's Elixir White Whitening Clear Emulsion, an emulsion just a light moisturizer although not necessary I recommend it.

STEP 4. ESSENCE/SERUM
this is a concentrated treatmeant to correct whatever the product you bought is for you can get these at almost any higher end brand (shisedo has plenty) & dont forget to wait 5-10 to put on a moisturizer after applying the essence/serum

STEP 5. MOISTURIZER

Last but not least MOISTURIZER ! never skip out on this !
I use The Ginza Energizing Lotion but one of the best lotion I have tried is Olay it's in a baby pink bottle with a black cap haha (: EDIT ITS CALLED OLAY ACTIVE HYDRATING BEAUTY FLUID (ORIGINAL) LOOKS LIKE THIS





BAM! & your done (: I hope you found this useful & comeee back to support me & my sister. Also, please comment on what you think about this post. =)
