It has been a minute since I’ve updated my skincare routine here on the blog. The last time I updated it was in 2021, and you can read that here. I’ve been using this routine for about two years at this point. Here’s my current morning skincare routine.
I keep it simple with the Farmacy Gentle Cleanser. This is gentle, smells amazing and doesn’t dry out my skin. I also use it at night. I use the Clean Skin Club face wipes. These are so good, if you’re looking for a face wipe that does double duty. You can use it to dry your face (I love these for travel!!) or you can wet it and use it to remove makeup at the end of the day. They are very soft yet effective.
Next, I apply toner. This rose toner from Caudalie has been in my rotation for years and years, at this point. It’s gentle and hydrating. I follow that up with my eye cream, which is either the Maelove Eye Cream or the Kiehl’s Vitamin C Eye Cream. Both are amazing. The Maelove eye cream contains peptides and caffeine to wake up my undereyes. The Kiehl’s eye cream reduces lines and undereye circles.
The serums are next, and I use my tried-and-true combo. These are both from Maelove. I first apply the Vitamin C Glowmaker Serum and then top that with the Hydrator Serum. I can really tell a difference in my skin from using these. The vitamin C serum contains the best form of vitamin C, which is L-ascorbic acid. It also contains ferulic acid and vitamin E. The Hydrator Serum is so good, and it contains vitamin B, hyaluronic acid, and resveratrol. All good things for your skin!
Last, I apply my day time moisturizer on my face and my neck. I’ve been using the Kiehl’s Super Multi-Corrective Cream for 3 years at this point, and that won’t be changing anytime soon. They make a version that contains SPF, but I get the one without. My CC Cream contains SPF, so I don’t like to double up. My neck cream is the Dr. Perricone Cold Press Plasma, and it is amazing. I will not be without this, and I have a subscription set up to mail it to me every 3 months.
For my lips, I actually use an overnight mask because I love the way it makes my lips feel. This Burt’s Bees mask is perfect, especially in the winter! Their lip scrub is also really effective.
That pretty much wraps up my morning skincare routine. I decided to keep my routines separate in the updated posts, because my night time routine varies from day to day. I’ll have one updated next week. If you have any questions, let me know.
