The New Year's Resolution Haul

So this post came at least a year late but here it is anyway. After all, one can only give substantial feedback about consumable products after a significant amount usage, right? Well at least that's my excuse for this post.

So here we go...

I spent my entire 20s neglecting my skin. I barely had any skin trouble throughout the entire decade and I unconsciously just relied on my body's natural ability to heal and regenerate skin cells. I also had the rare ability to resist sunburn, so I barely used any of the sticky sunblock lotions unless I had to be swimming at midday.

By the time I was in my early 30s, I realized I was way past my teens and started seeing the signs of skin damage and premature aging. It was a turning point- I had to change my habits and only then did I start looking at what's out in the market and it turns out I have been missing out on a lot. So much has changed over the years and there is such a wide variety of choices of every skin care product. It's easy to get overwhelmed and frustrated by the trial and error of finding the right products that would work for you.

So here's my initial haul. I call it my "New Year's Resolution Haul" because I made the decision to take care of my skin at the start of the year, though it took me about two months to shop around, since it just wasn't part of my regular shopping list and kept forgetting to shop for them.

I may be sharing them a bit too late- some of them may have been repackaged or phased out but since I'm into sharing my experience with these products, here's what I have to say.
