Women are strict when it comes to our beauty routines, although we can't deny that the process can be a bit tedious sometimes. Who hasn't had the evil thought of sleeping in their makeup after a long day at work or a night of partying? It happens to me all the time. But taking care of our skin is so important if we want to have a luminous complexion like, say, Thalia's gorgeous skin or other celebs whose skin is impeccable. Their products tend to be pricey, but the great news is that there are some affordable, effective options right in your local drugstore.
