Basic Skin Care Regimen a la Agoo Bengzon

Originally posted on Agoo-RU here on the Cosmopolitan Philippines website. I'm not sure I can commit to all ten steps she listed but you know what, if I want to keep looking the way I do now, I guess I'd better put in the effort, eh?

Sharing here to remind myself.

1. Use an oil type cleanser to remove waterproof make-up.
2. Follow up with a foaming cleanser to remove other traces of impurities.
3. Exfoliate.
4. Apply a moisturising mask.
5. Apply toner or face lotion.
6. Apply anti-ageing serum.
7. Apply moisturiser. She noted that she uses two different types: oil-free for her T-zone and a heavier cream for other areas of her face. I may actually take a leaf from her book on that as I have combination-oily skin.
8. Apply eye cream.
9. Put on SPF.
10. Apply lip balm.

My personal regimen is pretty darn close to hers now that I think of it. I use a make-up removing cream to take care of my make-up, wash it all off with a foaming cream (after wiping off the make-up remover), apply toner, moisturise (with SPF during the day, regular or night-specific moisturiser at night), and lip balm.

Hmm. Maybe I'm not doing so badly by myself after all.
