A beauty routine for every occasion

Or post workout, where perspiration brings about an excessive amount of sebum, or a long day out at the beach with a lot of sun, and jetlag! Well not to worry,…

Sunscreen for the eyes?

Photo courtesy of beautyshoponline.net You probably know that the skin around our eyes are very thin and delicate. And you also probably know about the importance of sunscreen. But did you know that the skin around our eyes require a different level of protection? Yes! I didn’t know this as well and have been merrily slathing on facial sunscreen everywhere on my face and around my eyes. Oh no! I wonder if the lack of suitable protection all these years…

God help me! :( Such immense heat. My makeup melts soooo quickly and my face is sooo oily by the end of everyday. Because of the humidity my oily skin is now even oilier than usual nowadays.
