Fresh Cucumber Mask

         My love of masks hasn't changed at all. Since my eye prob though, I want to let my face relax and use more natural beauty products. So, I decided to go back to my pre- sheet and wash off mask days, which is using a fresh cucumber. Cucumber is an ingredient found in many different beauty products because of the benefits that it has. 

        I took the cucumber out the day after I bought it and carefully sliced them. Cutting cucumber is not such an easy task because the cucumber can't be too thick or else the skin won't be able to absorb the moisture. I sometimes tend to cut too thin, so the cucumber slices ends up being too small. I would use the smaller pieces for areas of my face that are hard to cover (sides of my nose). After slicing my cucumber, I just put it all over my face (not too pretty, but hey it works). I leave the cucumber mask on my face for about 15mins and take them off. Then, I take a few smoother pieces and rub it against my face. Lastly, I pat my face dry and put on lotion to seal the moisture. My face always feel so moisturized and bright after this mask :) I usually use the mask after my shower or at night after cleansing my face. 

Lancôme Bi-facil Eye Makeup Remover

           Remember my post on Lancôme's bi-facil eye makeup remover? Well, I bought the 6.8 oz bottle two weeks ago. The reason that I bought the full size is because I really like it. The remover smells good, wipes off fast and doesn't irritate my eyes :)  Actually, there's one more reason....there was a deal in Dillard's ( six piece gift with $35 purchase). I know I was going to buy the full size eventually so the deal made me get it earlier. The gifts that I got was a reusable tote, travel size cleanser, mini mascara and an eye cream. There was a fifth and sixth gift (lipstick and blush), but apparently I didn't buy enough to get it....sad. I mean there wasn't any signs that mentioned that I need to spend more in order to get the lipstick/blush. Oh well, I probably won't use the lipstick or blush anyways. 

           I think it's really awesome to be able to find things that I like because it brightens up my mood and makes me feel happy :) Isn't life about searching for or doing things that make you happy? I want to do things that make me feel great and of course I think you do too. One of the things that is making me happy recently besides finding fav beauty products is finding my hobby again. My little hobby that I stopped for two years is drawing. Drawing helps me express my feelings and mark down things that are happening that day or moment. I sometimes may get bored if I try to draw too much so I limit myself to 2-3 pages a day ( it's just that I will lose my creativity). I think I might share some of my drawings here in the future or maybe opening another blog....Idk. We'll see about that.
