✨My holiday skincare prep before putting my make up on🎄

December is my absolute favorite month. Not only because of the holidays but also my birth month! I can't believe I'm 39 and currently 32weeks pregnant and eversince, I've been particular with the skincare and make up products that I use. Cold Winter in SK can be harsh on the skin. A day outside with - 15 up temperature can really dry up your skin easily. That's why before I put any make up on it's important to prep my face first. A good make up is nothing without a good skincare. Here is a list of products I used to achieve my dewy holiday festive look. ✨🎄

Highly recommended for a quick hydration bomb. The mask is thick. You will feel that when you leave it on, it makes the skin very hydrated. There's extra mask that I put on my hands and neck. I used the extra one to prep my face before putting my make up on.

It's all about the eyes. I need to prep my eyes before make up to give it a more fresher look. Reduce puffiness and dark circles.

The texture of this eye cream is soooo smooth and creamy and very easy to apply on the eyes. I have astigmatism and wear eyeglasses so my eyes tend to have dark circles. I use this product every night and it helps brighten my dark circles and puffiness. I layer it with moisturizer to lock the product in. This one is very hydrating compared to other eye creams I have tried.

Tonique Confort, Comforting Rehydrating Toner, for Normal to Dry Skin

It's winter time and we can all use another extra layer of hydration in the form of this Toner. It just preps the skin before adding make up products on it.

This product has been sitting on my desk for quite a few months. I got this from sephora favorites set of minis. I like how it looks with my other pretty in pink products. You know sometimes I just tend to buy things with cute packagings and I'm really drawn to color pink. This past month I have been testing and reviewing different toners and decided to give this one a try. I am very pleased with it. It almost looks like a serum. It has a thin milk watery consistency that glides and spreads smoothly on the skin. It has a scent but very mild and refreshing. Nothing a nauseating pregnant couldn't take. My skin drinks and absorbed it up very quickly. It brightens it up and gives it a glow. It is a very hydrating toner.

I love this product. The serum is very lightweight. I use this every day and night. It will effortlessly give you a donut glazed look.

First time I discovered and tried this serum was from a sample I got from Topbox. I loved it instantly. I love the smell and the texture of it. It's a double serum from 21 plant extracts. A non greasy oil and a melting gel. Two formulas contained in two separate vials and housed in one bottle. The science behind this product produced this all in one amazing anti aging facial moisturizer. It was a love at first try for me and I got myself to splurge for a full size.

Pretty Filter Glassy Skin Balm

This moisturizer/primer just locks in all the hydration and helps add glow to my skin. Even with make up products on, it won't look cakey. It will give a pretty filter on your skin. Makes it appear more smoother.

I call this the pretty little thing. Its packaging speaks for itself. It's so pink, shiny and pretty. The balm has a lightweight butter like consistency and It glides smoothly on my skin. My skin absorbed it quickly and feels very hydrating. This glassy skin balm also helped me achieve a smooth and dewy appearance on my skin. I love the pretty filter effect on my face, makes it look like I've really got a flawless skin. I use it as a moisturizer and a make up primer to make my skin texture refined and add glow to it. ✨

Moisture Surge Lip Hydro-Plump Treatment

I just put this on my lips before any lipstick or shaded lip balm. My lips during the winter are extra dry. It needs constant TLC.

This moisture surge lip hydro plump treatment can be used day and night for an instant boost of hydration but I find it kind of sticky and not smooth. It's not something I would always prefer to use due to it's texture. But since the look is very cute and handy I still use it sometimes especially when I'm in a hurry to pack. Rather than carrying a jar of Vaseline, I would reach for this one. I also use this during my make up prep. While I'm prepping my skin for make up and before I put on any product on my lips.
