Missing lip balm this morning... Recording my winter complexion whitening routine.

Ugh, this is so annoying. Where the hell did the lip balm I put by my bed to apply before bed go? My lips are already parched and my face is flaky from the heater, and it's past 1 a.m. and I can't find it anywhere in the house, driving me crazy. My lips hurt and I can't sleep... I'm just going to give up and lie down and write down my recent skincare routine. My face looks so dull every time I look in the mirror these days, so I've been developing a new whitening routine. If I neglect my whitening in the winter, I'm sure I'll suffer from blemishes next spring, right? So I've been layering it with a less irritating vitamin derivative ampoule and a moisturizing pack, and it definitely works well for my sensitive skin. I thoroughly apply this whitening routine every night after washing my face, and my complexion feels a little clearer. Of course, it's a hassle every day after work, so much so that I don't want to lift a finger. But when I see my makeup come off less in the morning, I can't stop this tiresome whitening routine... My skin is sensitive, so I've used products that others have recommended and ended up going crazy more than once, but I'm glad I've finally settled on one. But where did my lip balm go? If there are any gentle cosmetics that you recommend to those with sensitive skin like me, please share them. My lips are so stinging in the middle of the night that I feel like I have to complain before I can sleep.
