Longterm Relationship (beauty products)

Whenever I run out of some cream, makeup, shampoo, or whatnot I’m usually going to try something new either because I’m unsatisfied with the last one or I’m curious to see if I can find something better. But there are a couple things that I have never stopped using or have continued to restock on ever since I started using them. They’ve been loyal to me and do everything I want and more.  

First is my Product Hair Shine Serum. I use hair oil a lot, but I don’t like having to wash the oil off my hands all the time after applying it. But this oil is in a spray bottle, so I don’t have to touch it and it gives a nice medium oil shine, not too heavy where it looks wet but enough to look sleek. My hair also doesn’t get weighed down by this oil or feel greasy to the touch.

Second is my Lucas’ PawPaw Ointment. I first got this ointment as a gift from Australia about three years ago and everyone was using it as lip cream which it is great as; it’s not too sticky or waxy and gives a nice natural sheen and it’s healthy for your lips. But the best part is not that, the best part is that it doubles as a bug bite/cut remedy. I put this on my mosquito bites and they stop itching within a minute.

Third item is my Kiehls Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Mask (sorry the image is in French, I got it in Canada). I’ve been using this about three or four times a month for the past seven years. This product has been with me the longest by far. It cleans out the pores, especially around my nose, so well, it also gets rid of any redness in the area. I’ve never found anything else that cleans out my pores so instantly without causing any damage. Nights before a closeup shoot, I always use this.

My last long-term beauty product relationship is with my Refa. It’s a face massager that uses microcurrents to get rid of any swelling and it works. When I first got it, I was always doing one side at a time so I could have fun seeing the difference. I use this right before shoots but also on my neck whenever I have tightness or headaches and it always helps.
