SKINCARE ROUTINE
Time you spend on your skin on a daily basis : about 30 min
Weaknesses ? I have extremely sensitive skin, so I get wierd issues sometimes, plus I was a picker during my teens, and sometimes I still do, mostly with blackheads, but still
Strenghts ? I have a good skin-care routine I think, and I've discovered the right products for me - always simple, and either organic, or hyperallergenic
Any personal beauty secrets ? ACV for the hair, and salt scrubbed very gently once a week on the face - but these aren't really secrets, check out the Household Beauty Recipes thread!
EATING ETC HABITS
Water ? at least 1½ litres per day, but often more than that + herbal teas
Alcohol ? on weekend-nights out and on special occasions, not much though
Cigarettes? not a smoker, but can't get past the second hand smoke when out in town
Vitamin Supplements? at the moment only A-Z vitamins
Carnivor / Vegetarian / Vegan ? everything, but vegetarian when poor
Weaknesses ? chocolate! ice cream! + french pastry (feeling guilty today!) + I don't always get all the fruits and vegetables I should.
Strenghts ? fast metabolism
and health conscious - I hardly ever eat junk food (unless you count a good pizza a junk food? let's say not)
EXERCISE
Yes/No ? yeees... but very sporadically at the moment
If yes what and how often? walking to places, yoga, and I used to dance ballet regularly...

Do you get enough sleep ? On average 7-8 hours
GENETICS

Finally...
DID IT PAY OFF
Does your routines make you feel young and healthy ? well, I feel fine
Do people guess you to be younger or older than your actual age ? It goes both ways, really depends on the situation:
When I am with my sister (who is 15) people sometimes ask if we're twins. But at my present work, the other interns who are a couple years older than me thought I was their age. I am 22.
