After years of following the 10 Step Korean Skincare Routine, I have reduced my routine into something more simple and effective. I chose Cruelty-Free brands and some are Vegan Friendly too.

Cleansing Oil - Klairs Gentle Black Deep Cleansing Oil (Vegan Friendly)  mildly cleanses the skin while controlling sebum production and soothe skin. Its gentle on my skin but most importantly doesn't irritate my eyes!

Facial Wash - Neogen Green Tea Real Fresh Foam Cleanser is a unique foam cleanser is a must try for oily, combination, or acne-prone skin.

Exfoliate - Klairs Gentle Black Sugar Facial Polish (Vegan Friendly) is a premium face scrub with natural moisturizers to smooth the skin by removing dead skin cells and blackheads. I usually exfoliate 1-2x a week.

Mask - Chica Y Chico Cool Night Peel-off Mask has dense texture that adheres to the skin tightly to get rid of every sebum, dead skin cells and waste. It has a cool, minty feel to it, which I really like. I apply this 1-2x week too when I'm not exfoliating.

Toner - Chica Y Chico Skin Texture Toner claims to be a brightening and anti-aging toner. Its very light and moisturizing on the skin but I haven't really noticed any brightening effect.

Eye Cream - Bio Marine Delicate Eye Cream is a gentle, quick-absorbing moisturizer made specifically for the fine and sensitive skin around the eyes. It also keeps the skin's natural and balanced moisture level, boosts collagen production and improves the skin's natural fight against free radicals. I have been using this eye cream for 7 months already and I love it! It is definitely true to its claim. Not only do I apply this around the eye area, but also the forehead and the smile lines.

Serum - Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Serum is a moisturizing serum that fully hydrates deep within the skin, keeps it radiant and glowing throughout the day. I honestly prefer this over the Klairs Freshly Juice Vitamin Drop since our weather here is hotter than ever.

Moisturizer and Lip Balm - Human Nature Sunflower Oil or what I like to call the "miracle oil" brightens and moisturizes all skin types. Aside from being my face, lip and body moisturizer, it also lightens dark spots and pimple marks, thickens my brows and more!
