The Body Shop shower gels are really affordable at $8 for 250ml. There are loads of scents you can choose  from so it's a good way to make your showers more interesting and enjoyable.

Do you buy limited edition products from each season?

I typically try my best not to buy something from any new product lines that come out each season. Once you get into the habit of buying one or two things each season it really adds up! I think I've done pretty well actually. The only LE seasonal thing I own is an eyeshadow palette from a Nars' holiday line a few years ago.  But...I might have maybe faltered or something and maybe sort of bought this.... (*slaps wrist*)

Review: Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Moss Lipstick 14

When it comes to Kates, I have to say that I am much more a fan of Kate Lanphear than Kate Moss. Can we just get a shout out to Lanphear's awesome rocker-chic style! However, one cannot deny that Kate Moss' gaunt and waifish appearance made her extremely popular and she is still an iconic symbol of 90's beauty. When Rimmel came out with their Kate Moss collaboration I wasn't exactly running to the store to check it out, but did recently pick up a rather nice color in #14.

I swear, this bottle has a billion things written on it. I was looking for a dry shampoo since I end up washing my hair at irregular intervals if I'm going to the gym. Let's see how this one works.

Day and Night Skincare Routine

(Unfortunately photos in this post were lost due to The Great Deletion of 2014. Some efforts to re-do photos will be made but not all posts will be redone.)

As suggested by a friend, I'm doing a post on my day and night skincare routines. This is going to be a long one folks. Usually a skincare routine consists of a cleanser, followed by toner, then a moisturizer. If you have a serum or some other treatment you're using, those typically come after the toner. If you're into Asian skincare, you also have to figure out the right ordering for serums, essences, and emulsions. Typically it is suggested that products be used in increasing order of thickness/density. 

It can get a bit confusing I have to say, and sometimes I wonder if having all these products can create some redundancy so I try and keep it straightforward. I wouldn't say I'm completely happy with my routine but am not about to dump all my bottles to find the perfect products. It's a bit of a process to find the right combo. As an aside, meet my fruit dish which also doubles as a collection bin for all the products I need to photograph for posts.
