Everyday Morning Routine βοΈ
This will be your everyday morning routine.
If you have very oily skin in the morning, you can wash your face using your preferred facial wash. But for me, I only wash with clean water as washing with facial cleanser, dries out my skin.
Β
Never ever forget to put an antioxidant in the morning as it protects your skin from UV, pollution, and environmental stress.
JUMISO Antioxidant Glow Facial Essence
Β
Love how my skin feels after applying this! Make up is less cakey and skin feels moisturized all day!
Current fave for my body sun screen. I do not use this for my face though as I find it oily for me but if this works for you, go you! :)

I use the Lavender variant as it gives a natural glow. Other variants can cover redness (Mint), covers dullness (Latte Beige), gives out natural bright skin (Happiness Aura), and reduce appearance of blood color (Blue).
