We’ve been known to coat our skin inch-thick with moisturiser. But a blob the size of a pea is enough to cover the entire face (add a second for the neck). The only exception is sunscreen. For that, you’ll need a teaspoon.
This is a mistake I always make. It’s always the other way round; I use way too much moisturiser, and too little sunscreen. I always have to tell myself that I don’t need that much moisturiser, especially around the nose where it tends to create more sebum. Sigh. What about you?









Thirty-something. Gemini. Happily married. Loves shopping. Has an unhealthy adoration for bags and chocolate. Uses sunscreen religiously. Hates baked beans with a vengeance. Thinks that the weekdays should be a weekend long, vice versa. Optimistic. Narcissistic. Not the average Jane.

hahaha me too commit the same mistake. i always squeeze too much of moisturizer out, but it feels good to slap alot of them on the cheeks right?
I use too little sunscreen!! One loreal tube can last me more than a year if i use it daily… so imagine how little i use each time!!
I don’t use a lot of moisturiser because my skin will get oilier faster, so I guess that’s my own way of telling myself to skimp on the moisturiser
Plus, I have to use it wisely, running out of moisturiser too fast = wallet getting thinner T_T
I use my sunscreen to moisturize but I don’t apply enough. I should appy about 1/4 teaspoon for my face but I’ll look like a greasy pancake!
hoho~ i did it right this time. i use minimal moisturizer since i don’t have dry skin, but i use quite a bit of sunscreen!
i can’t afford to go darker… it’ll be hard to be fair back again~
stupid sun of msia >_<
Also guilty!! I tend to use more around my eyebrows, and nose area, especially this time of year!
