Skin Products I use

This post is continuing on from my skin care routine, which is here . Here is mostly all of the products I had mentioned with a short description & opinion on each one. I hope it is helpful to someone :) Bio Oil Now I'm sure mostly everyone has heard of this. It retails for about AU$15 for 60ml. Since this post is long enough i won't go into detail about it but they say its good for scars; stretch marks; uneven skin tone; Aging skin; & dehydrated skin, and it doesn't take long to absorb. Feels great on my skin!! I've been using it for about 10 months, 2x daily & I've noticed a small difference with my acne scarring. Bellaboo EZ Blitz serum   50ml for AU$16 This is a serum which i use 2x daily. I really like this, it feels nice on my skin and really is calming towards my pimples. Plus I find it is moisturizing. Bellaboo products are aimed towards teenagers and everything is chemical free. This is the only product I've tried from them so far ...

Face Routine {Skin Care}

So I don't have the best of skin but I do try to take care of it. Before I got into taking care of my skin I never identified my skin type, so I was always using just whatever. Now my skin is dry but I don't know if that's from washing it twice a day (which I have stopped because I realized I didn't need to). I probably should have gone to see a derm. Anyway my skin is dry & acne prone. & just in case you're interested here is what i use! Morning In the morning I just splash with cold water. I apply Bio-Oil all over- this is great for dehydrated skin!! I use it for my red spots as well. Then I apply a Belloboo E Z Blitz Serum to the active pimples. Sometimes I use Clearasil pimple clearing cream to keep my skin "at its toes"[so my skin doesn't create a tolerance to one product] (lol). For day cream I'm trying to use up a moisturizer i got as a gift. It is Formula 10.0.06 Seriously Shine Free {description below} Since I have dry skin it is n...

Makeup and Me

Hi! my name is Mariya and yes like so many other girls I am too Obsessed about makeup. But for me makeup is not just looking beautiful but also expressing myself, its a medium of catharsis or showing off my emotions. It makes me feel good about my self and I want everyone to feel that way about themselves. I got hold of my mom's makeup palettes and stuff when I was only 7 years old and I used to copy looks I saw in magazines or on TV and from there I got completely and irrecoverably in love with make-up. Ok now enough about me and some thing about WHY I am here and starting a Blog. Well I believe that beauty shouldn't cost so much, like honestly how many people can afford professional quality makeup???? so here I will try to give some tips and tricks on how to get stunning looks using not so expensive makeup and give reviews on cheap products and tell u how to work them. Hopefully I would be able to help out those people who are just starting out, want to experiment with makeup...
