I received a couple requests in comments and through the chat box for me to do up an entry about my skincare regime.

Maybelline ‘The Falsies’ waterproof Mascara Marjolica Eyeliner in black Benefit Eyebrow Kit ZA concealer Chanel Lipstick in Vendome [25] Start off with a clean face with only moisturizer on.
