The Lipstick League - Week of 2.2.15

The Lipstick League Question of the Week: 

How much time do you spend on your skincare regimen each day? 

G's answer: When it comes to both skincare and haircare, I'm a very low-maintenance type of gal and I don't spend nearly as much time as I should on those things! On average, I'd say I probably spend no more than 20 minutes total on skincare per day. I wash my face in the morning, exfoliate (2-3 times a week), apply toner and then a moisturizer or BB/CC cream with SPF and then it's off to apply the rest of my makeup. At night, I wash my face and lately I've been using a micellar water to remove the last traces of makeup that my cleanser might not catch. Then, I usually apply my nighttime moisturizer (or a serum followed by moisturizer) and that's it. Every two weeks or so, I also like a use a mask.

The Lipstick League Links of the Week:

Beautygeeks - If you habitually skip body lotion after your shower because you’re too rushed, this new Jergens Moisturizer for Wet Skin is a game-changer, even more-so than Olay Moisturerinse (discontinued anyway) and Nivea In-Shower Body Milk and Lotions (sorry, Nivea).

Beauty Junkies Unite - In 1983, I used to sneak my brother's Grandma's bottle of Vidal Sassoon shampoo in my bathtub and use it when I wasn't supposed to. Now, that original cherry almond scent is coming back in updated Vidal Sassoon Shampoo & Conditioner formulas, and 7 year-old me couldn't be more thrilled.

Clumps of Mascara - shows off more Shea Moisture Cosmetics awesomeness.

EauMG - Valentine’s Day is a week away! Treat yourself with these little lovely-scented luxuries.

Guest Post of the Week, as chosen by Beautygeeks - I’m all about a specific sheet mask for therapeutic moisturizing right now, but my pal Tracy at BeautyReflections recently posted this great moisture-mask smackdown that reminds me that moisture masks in a tube are great options too.

  1. 20 minutes seems like a lot. I probably spend 5 minutes at the most!
