Skin care routine

GRAMMARAMA!

I WAS never a believer in skin care until lately. Probably after I turned 40, just when I started to notice the crow's feet piercing a little harder on the side of my eyes, among other changes in my body, which I'd like to keep to myself, thank you. The three-step process of cleansing, toning and moisturizing was just too alien to me. By the way, we use the singular form of the noun that is attached to a number using a hyphen, case in point, 'step' in 'three-step process.' Yes, even if it's more than one. That's because it technically becomes one word, an adjective, when combined. Anyway, a few years later, I have never been more religious about anything other than going to church every Sunday as doing my nightly skin care routine, and I don't think I'll ever slow down. I have quite sensitive skin, and products that have worked for me are the Neutrogena acne-clear cleanser, the Vitamin C toner from Japan that we usually buy at Don Quijote and the Oxecure anti-acne moisturizer. How about you? What's your skin care routine? Shoot me a note on IG, and let's compare notes!
