Personally I would say my skin is not perfect! I have scars and acne but my skin is even better when I use these products. I have a dream to make my own beauty range which consists of only 100% natural ingredients but in Malaysia there’s no tech to do such thing except if it’s home made. Inshallah i will pursue my master study because i do not want to be a seller who acts like she knows everything bout cosmetic. The worst thing that could ever happen to me is my life without knowledge.
1. Organic Olive Oil
What’s the use of olive oil? I used it as my makeup cleanser. It is super effective for me because it melts my makeup really well. I don’t trust those commercial makeup remover because why I have to use them because there’s other safer alternative? Oil is good for your skin eventhough you have oily skin because diriwayatkan oleh Ibnu Umar r.a., Rasulullah SAW pernah bersabda: “Minumlah minyak zaitun dan berminyak dengannya kerana sesungguhnya ia adalah dari pohon yang diberkati.” (HR Al-Baihaqi & Ibnu Majah). Di dalam riwayat lain menjelaskan bahawa Rasulullah SAW pernah bersabda: “Barangsiapa menggosok (badannya) dengan minyak zaitun, syaitan tidak akan mendekatinya.”
2. Rice Milk Soap Cleanser
I am very particular and choosy when it comes to skincare. I even become more choosy as I am a chemistry student I have an oily skin especially during at noon! This cleanser is specifically for oily skin people so for those who have dry skin is not recommended. This soap contains rice seed, sunflower seed oil, rice milk and soap base. You don’t have to worry bout the soap base because if you study saponification, basic ingredients of soap are salts of strong bases and weak acids, they should be weakly alkaline in aqueous solution. Without them, soap takkan terhasil. However, a soap with free alkali can cause damage to skin, silk, or wool. Anyway no worries bout the soap base. Hihi
3. Toner
I made my own toner by using rose petals. I will also make sure that the roses that i picked or buy contains no chemicals or harmful pesticides. How to do that? Make sure the flowers are certified organic. You guys just google ways to make rose water okay? It’s so simple and pretty easy. I applied this everytime after i cleanse my face. Toner is very important to neautralise your skin PH after cleansing. Be sure that your toner does not contain ALCOHOL, PARABEN, BUTYL/METHYL/PROPYL PROPYLENE and PARFUM.
4. Argan Oil
I bought argan oil from XAARA which is much more affordable and cold pressed. RM79.90 for 30ml. You guys might say “Seriously, that’s what you call affordable?” Actually it is so long lasting because I just use 2-3 drops twice a day. Love it! Fast absorption and very good for acne and scars! In a week, my scars and acne slowly diminish. I also used it for my hair because i have hair fall problem. It makes my hair more strong and shiny Some of you might say “You already have oily skin. Are you nuts by adding more oil to your skin?” Girls, oil doesn’t make my skin becomes more oily because the function of argan oil itself is to normalize the oil production so you don’t need to be so anxious bout it.
5. Organic Coffee Scrub / Lips Scrub
I don’t buy kilo coffee scrub. I studied where’s the coffee comes from first before buying the product. So, I decided to buy this coffee scrub from my senior. I trust her because I know her. She’s a super nice woman. She sold me her Irissential coffee scrub which is super good for my skin. It’s home made too. Hihi.. It contains olive oil, almond oil, organic sugar and coffee which makes my skin not just moisturize but brighter after one apply. Hihi. Super amazing right? I apply scrub 2-3 times per week. It’s important to remove dead skin cells and also to ensure that all the nutrients are fully absorbed into my skin. I use brown sugar to scrub my lips because i also wear lip cream, lipstick and lip balm. Especially the one that is long-lasting and matte makes my lips dry. I hate it! I need a smooth lips! So what do I do? I scrub my lips every night to peal off any dry skin and lipstick residue. It’s very important guys.
That’s all for my daily skincare routine. Really simple right? You don’t need to wear 6-10 things because too much skincare appliance can cause damage to your skin too. Let’s keep it simple and easy. During night, after i cleanse my face, i just use argan oil as my moisturizer and night cream Keep it simple!
As for makeup, i don’t wear that much makeup because I don’t like too much chemicals penetrating into my skin. So i will also keep it simple like sunscreen, foundation, loose powder, lip cream and eyeshadow only. It’s so simple for a girl who wears makeup right? No mascara and no eyebrow touch because my eyebrow is already thick and cute. Specially designed and created by Allah swt i’m so proud of myself! Haha
Eventhough skin care routine and makeup are important but inner beauty is what matters most. Be generous with smile and positive vibes. Unleash your confidence! That’s the true beauty
Love, potato
