Skin care

I think I may start to write more on skin care related blog post. It is something I do and lecture on my friends on a lot so why not?
I have combination skin that can get oily fast but dry spots on my cheeks.
Acne prone, and large pores.
Gah, I am openly jealous and am a complete hater to girls AND guys who have perfect skin. Friends who have perfect skin you know who you are. glare glare* hehehehe
I am not completely obsessed on obtaining perfect skin, but man if I can get my skin as close as it can to perfect I would be so happy.
I think Ill start just posting pictures of skin care items I am using or have used up, and things I have repurchased multiple times because I am crazy in love with them.

Items I am currently using, not everyday but Ill switch out things every once in a while.

Biore uncloging face scrub
I like using this when I shower at night. I use it with my clarisonic mia and it is a gentle exfoliation for my skin

Micheal Todd True Organic Jojoba Charcoal Scrub
This is so nice! I use this probably twice a week and it makes my skin super soft after I wash it off

Skin Food Peach Sake Toner
I loved this for so long, I used multiple bottles. Probably 7 bottles but I think I am going to stop using it because I finally noticed that it has alcohol in it. T_T If it didn't have alcohol in it I think I would continue using it because I loved how it made my skin feel. I could really feel the toner helping my pores close and it felt really good. After I finish the bottle I have currently Ill start buying and using the toner from Micheal Todd.

SK-II essence
Super big bottle of this because it is more worth it. My most expensive skin care item. I don't know why it works for me but it does. I realize that when I stop using it, my skin just goes to crap and acne just starts popping out of no where. no fun. Also helps lighten spots. I love this stuff

Serum
Lacome genefic
I enjoy this serum, but I only have a bunch of sample size packets of this at the moment. It is very expensive so I bought the sample packets instead of the bottle like the cheapo asian I am. haha but it really works. It is very light weight, a little runny, milky translucent color. I am mainly using this to help lighten my scars and discoloration

Laneige white renewal moisturizer
I just finished a bottle of this because it is that awesome. It is light weight, not sticky, and has a pump. I really do not like moisturizers in a tub. It feels really dirty cause it gets under your nails and stuff. This moisturizer feels watery and refreshing so I finished it fast.

H2O moisturizer
I bought this on a whim. I don't really like this mostly because it feel like it's not making a difference to my skin. It moisturizes but not as much as I would like it to. Plus it is in a tub which I dislike. Also something about it being a blue gel looking formula is strange to me. I don't really know why but I am sort of put off by it. I am really just using this to use it up. I think it works better on my body than on my face.

Shiseido spf 55 sunscreen
I always use sunscreen before I leave the house.This is a must use item for me. There is the thicker version and a thinner consistency version for this sunscreen. I generally like the sunscreen with the thinner consistency, because it is easier to spread.

Crying is such a pain in the butt

Crying sucks. We cry when we are happy, when we are sad, when we are angry, when we stress so much we just got to let it all out, we cry when our hearts get broken. What ever the reason is, when we start crying we can't stop the tears, especially when we are  sad and hearts are involved. Once those tears exit the eyes and start flowing down our cheeks telling ourselves to stop is impossible. We just have to let them stop on their own. They might have pausing intervals or breaks, but when our mind wanders to the reason why we started crying in the first place they start to overflow again. Crying is a pain

People say those who are sensitive cry more often; I find that to be true. I am one of those sensitive beings, I do cry more than normal people. I try to not cry, but I can't always successfully do so. We are more sensitive, we are more emotional, we take things more serious than others because we put more effort into those things or feelings than most people, so when a thing or our feelings are tossed aside we get emotional and we start to cry. 

How to deal with someone who is crying. Don't say stop crying ESPECIALLY if you are the reason we are crying in the first place. You know you are the reason so don't deny it and don't act as if you don't care. That action alone is pouring fuel to the fire. Consoling us is nice and the correct step in helping us feel better and stop crying faster. ( you want us to stop crying faster) If it is not your fault wait for us to calm down, if you know the reason don't ask, wait for us to start talking, if you don't know the reason you may ask and then after you hear the answer, you should ask how you should help just out of courtesy.

Well now that you guise know all about crying try to make the place happier~
