Washing your face at the end of the night is the most important regiment of the day. Step 1 of the process is the makeup remover. I’ve tried all kinds of expensive makeup remover, but to this day, I must say that the best one out there is the Neutrogena Eye Makeup Remover. Often times, I find that products are not able to remove water-proof eye makeup properly, but one swipe with Neutrogena and it’s all gone! No need to spend tons of money getting luxury brand makeup remover. Neutrogena works better than all and it’s more affordable! Plus, you can always rely on Neutrogena to be safe and gentle for your skin. I’ve noticed that some makeup remover stings to use around my eye area, but I’ve never had a problem with Neutrogena.
Then, comes the washing of the face. Experts say that there is no need to spend a lot of money on facial cleansers. Drugstore brands work just as well as luxury brands and if not better. Expensive brands often times are more expensive not because of the ingredients, but because of the packaging or marketing hype. The important factors to look for in facial cleansers include:
- Doesn’t irritate the skin or eyes
- Should make your skin feel clean
- Should remove makeup without a need to scrub
- Should not dry out skin
My personal favorite facial cleanser from drugstores:
My favorite from Sephora:
Bliss is my favorite out of all though because it makes me feel so fresh and smells amazing! The first time I discovered it was at the W Hotel and since that day, I’ve only used this face wash. I definitely suggest you to try this product out! Plus, it’s one of the most affordable facial cleanser that Sephora offers.


Clinical studies suggest that green tea extract may boost metabolism and help burn fat. One study confirmed that the combination of green tea and caffeine improved weight loss and maintenance in overweight and moderately obese individuals. Also, drinking green tea has been found effective in small clinical study for dental caries, or tooth decay. The antioxidants are also known to be amazing for the skin, especially with helping blemishes. Hence, what I normally do is drink a cup of green tea every day and then take the tea leaves from the tea or the tea bag and press it onto my face for about 5 minutes. Go to the grocery store now and get yourself some green tea! Make sure that the green tea you purchase is all natural.
