Note: I used to do a lot of DIY's but have recently switched to purchasable products to see what's out there that I can recommend. I will be experimenting more with DIY products in the future because they're fun and cost a lot less!
Note #2: Some people are curious as to why I am using a Clinique product, so I will explain here. Prior to making the switch, I used the Kimberly Sayer SPF 30 Moisturizer, but I did not want to pay for shipping again for that product. I tried sunscreens that I bought all over the city which only made me break out intensely. My friend got me the Clinique sunscreen at a discount and it has proven to be very well formulated and has given me the results I am looking for (and being an honest person, I decided to be open about it). I will continue to use it until I find a better product that is within reach. Recommendations are welcome!
Note #3: I am very passionate about skincare. I work hard and invest in things I want to try. The cumulative cost of all of my products is quite expensive, but one acquires all of these things over a long period of time, much like a make up or video game collection. I will do more DIY skincare in the future, but I also like to experiment with pre-made products as well. That is all.
