My name is Casey Ly (Sydney-Saigon base). I'm 22 years old turning 23 at the end of this year. I have combination skin with neutral skin's undertone. My skin's tone is light to medium and I have freckles ;) 

 

Unlike teenagers in Sydney, I had no idea about makeup and skin care during my high school. To be honest, I wore a little bit of tinted lipstick at school and try to make my small eyes look bigger by adding eyeliner when I was hanging out. No eyebrow, no falsies, no foundation and also no blushes (except for someone's wedding, my friend did my makeup all the time). At that time, my eyeliner skill was terrible, it is getting better now but still get me into trouble sometimes. For somebody, makeup is how you hide your weaknesses. For me, makeup is what I love and passionate. I can wear heavy or natural makeup or even no makeup depend on my mood. I don't have a pretty face, my eyes are small with no lashes (I'm a typical Chinese girl kind of look), my chin is in a square shape and my lips has very very very light colour as no blood goes through it :(. However, when I love to wear makeup I wear it, when I feel no mood, I just go out with my bare face. That's totally fine ;) but don't forget your sunscreen, it is super duper important.  

 

At that time, I did nothing to my skin except using Korean cleanser twice a day. Around two and a half years ago, I was aware of how important to have healthy skin as my skin became dull, uneven toned and dehydrated. I started to drink more water and created my own skincare routine for day and night. Some products work best on my skin but some are terrible. I started to understand my skin in terms of its type and how it worked. My skin gets better now, but I can't stop hunting for new skincare products to test out.
