How many steps in your evening routine?

As Korean skincare is famous for its many steps and diverse product types, I'm so curious to know how many steps/products people in this community *actually* have in their evening routine!

Also, on top of answering the poll, which steps do you typically follow in your morning routine and which products do you use?

I also made a poll about your morning routine, if you want to answer that one too :)

I'll also make a post like this for your evening routines and post a link to it in a comment down below :)

Lots of conifers to tend to!

We just moved into a new place and pretty much inherited about a dozen conifers, all of which have been living on this rooftop terrace in the south of Germany for about 20 years. To my untrained eyes, they mostly look healthy, but like they haven't received much - if any - pruning these past two decades. I'm entirely new to Niwaki, but feel like some of these conifers would really benefit from Niwaki-style shaping.

​

The species I believe to have identified so far are:

- one Himalaya Cedar (Cedrus deodara), this one looks perfect to me as is

- one Hinoki Cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa)

- some type of juniper (maybe Juniperus squamata?)

- one Japanese White Pine (Pinus parviflora)

- three Dwarf Mountain Pines (Pinus mugo)

- one Koyamaki (Sciadopitys verticillata), don't think this one works for Niwaki

- one White Spruce (Picea glauca), probably also wouldn't work

... and two unidentified species, see pictures 6/7 and 8/9.

​

Do any of you have any advice and suggestions for where and how I should start?
