Daily Morning Routine

I wake up at different timings everyday. Trust me. If I were to sleep late the night before, I'll definitely wake up late and yes, that goes for sleeping early the night before and waking up early in the morning. Let's just put this in a direct manner. I'm totally not a morning person. My name says it. Laila which means night. Just joking. So let me share you my morning routine.

First of all, I brush my teeth. So here's my current favourite toothpaste.

This is the Sensodyne Gentle Whitening toothpaste. It works like a miracle for me. I have a thing for white teeth although I know that white teeth are not healthy teeth but I love to use whitening toothpaste since ages ago. That's just me! After brushing my teeth, I may go a step further and brush my lips to exfoliate them. It's a dry and humid weather in Singapore so the moisture in your lips evaporates therefore it dries up and you have to brush, brush, brush all the dead and dry skin away!

Next, I cleanse my face. I'm currently using Eversoft Pore Minimising cleanser which i got in a bundle of three last three weeks at Watsons. A great deal though.

Yes, the pore minimising cleanser is the one at the bottom in the middle. This cleanser is all made up of organic plant actives like tomato and cucumber as mentioned in the product itself. It helps to minimise the pores on your face and also remove excess oil sebum that results in breakouts. This cleanser makes your feel super fresh and oh, not to mention, the smell that lingers around your face while cleansing. Definitely a thumbs up!

Next, I exfoliate my face. I don't use any product at the moment because I realised that facial scrubs on the shelves does not work for me. It does not exfoliate as much as I expect. Thus, I DIY my own facial scrub which I've shared in the previous post. You can click on the link to view it. A simple DIY that everyone has to try out! Click here: DIY SCRUB

After exfoliating, I tone my face and my current favourite toner is by Nivea. It's Nivea Whitening and Pore Minimising toner.

A toner that I've been using since last year. This toner wipes all the excess dirts and makeup you have and bam, your face is clear and it prevents breakouts on your face. This product also comes with its cleanser and moisturizer. You can get this at Watsons or Guardian.

Lastly, moisturizer or sunscreen. Alright, for the days I don't go out, I like to use Bare Minerals Illuminating White Treatment.

This moisturizer is hard to find in Singapore already. I'm trying my best to save as much as I could. One thing that is great about this moisturizer is that it can be used for morning and night. It is not watery and yes, it locks in the moisture in my skin plus combating dark spots and pigmentation in the skin too. Thumbs up.

And, for the days I have to face the Sun most of the time. I use Olay White Radiance cream.

This cream has an SPF of 19 which I think will be a great sunscreen/moisturizer base before putting on my makeup. This cream also helps to reveal the fairness in the skin making your face radiant all day! Not to mention, it has Vitamin B3! I always find it easier to find moisturizer with SPF so that you don't have to apply so many layers on your face.

So, that's all for my morning routine. I'll be doing a DIY post next week on how to make your own lipstick using crayons! Do stay tune!

Love, Delilah.
