Skin progress

Here are my latest facial skin photos taken last night after washing my face with the Lush soap. Notice again my dried lips recovering from the colds I had few days ago. They are drying now and it looks icky.

My facial regimen

This is what my facial regimen consists of:

Lush products which includes Steamer tab, facial soap, vanishing cream, facial mask, and lip tint.

A new additional member which I have just started using two days ago is the Infrared Lamp. The lamp is mainly for the purpose of relieving my on-and-off severe colds, runny nose, and constant-4-to-8-sneezes in a row. But I have read on the Internet that it is also a proven aid for pain relief, skin care and anti-aging. That is why, I will be using the lamp everyday and see if there will be improvements not only in my health and resistance against the cold virus, but also on my skin. 

The facial mask and steamer tab, I only apply it on my face twice a week. All other products mentioned here, I use them everyday.

On my previous post, I have uploaded a photo of my facial skin before using these products. I will be posting a photo so we could check if there are more improvements or if these are really effective.

We will see...

p.s. I never had such regimen before. I am not the vain type. We have just found Lush products during our shopping tour in Braunschweig and ended up buying this for a try.

Improvements

I think there are improvements on my skin after 6 days of using the LUSH products. I started using it on Sunday last week, the 29th of January.

Before photo is without makeups. My lips, the skin on my upper lips and around my nose were irritated and swollen because of my constant rubbing of my nose due to severe colds.

The After photo is also without makeups except for the lipstick which is also from Lush.

As you can see, my skin became clearer and whiter, I think. I am not after of the whiteness because I don't want to be any level whiter. But I think it is how it works to level up the shade of my facial scars from the severe monthly acne to my normal skin color.

Hopefully, LUSH can do more miracles on my skin!

I will continue using their products.

Lush Products - Mostly organic!

Last Saturday after my B1 exam, my husband and I drove to Braunschweig to pick up some baskets, which we bought in Ebaykleinanzeige. We paid 20 Euros for the set. It contains three different sizes of baskets to put in dirty clothes.  We are in the process of moving to a new apartment 5 minutes from the center of the City. So we have been busy looking for furnitures in Ebaykleinanzeige. When we are done, I will be making photos of the furnitures we got for free in Ebaykleinanzeige and bought at a steal price.

After that, we went to the city of Braunschweig and made some shopping tours. We arrived at around 3pm there, ate in at an Italian restaurant, walked, made some pictures. And then finally as we were going back to the Parking house, we passed by this Handmade cosmetics shops, which I thought was a Confectionary store. The soaps at the window of this shop looked like sweets. And they smell so great, so fruity. I was tempted to lick it or taste it. Actually I did (at home)! But the taste was completely different to its scent. =)

So after looking around, we decided to buy some of the skin products for my Sweetie's very sensitive and dry skin. I think all the talking and questions lasted for more than an hour. We ended up buying the Fresh Farmacy - a soap for my face, Rose Jam - a pink ballsoap for bathtub, You've been mangoed - a soap oil for bathtub too (the scent of this soap was the one who tempted me to taste it.), a trial small cap of Vanishing Cream - a cream for my part oily- part dry skin on my face, A Million Kisses - a LipTint, which I find very nice too, Dream Wash - a skincare cream for dry and sensitive skin of my Sweetie, Ro's Argan Body conditioner- a body container which makes our skin feels like a baby's skin, a trial small cap of Dream Cream - a body lotion for my Sweetie's dry skin, Tea Tree - a steamer tab for my acne-prone skin, a sample cap of Love Lettuce - facial mask for me, and finally a trial small cap of Creme Anglais- a very expensive cream for ver dry or very sensitive skin. We have started using these yesterday to relax. And it was so much fun and we were very satisfied with how our skin feels afterwards. We are still in the testing phase and hopefully, the products can really do miracles!

I made a photo of the skin on my face before using the products, so I can compare it later on after a week or two. This is the BEFORE photo. As you can see, I have oily skin on the T area and dry skin on my cheeks. And on my chin and sides of my nose are scars from previous acnes/pimples which are in on and off status every month. My dry lips are due to the severe colds, runny nose I have had two days ago. The skin on my nose and my lips were burned or over-scratched from rubbing.

Here, I have the Love Lettuce mask on my face. My first try of this product.
