Talking Beauty: My Current Skin Routine
Skincare is one of those things that is like a book of secrets. How do French girls look so effortless all the time? What should I be putting on my face? You do whhhhhhat with coconut oil?
Everyone wants to know what everyone else is doing and why. We all want to look and feel our best, and with the most minimal effort possible. Below are a few of my favorite products I swear by for my daily routine:
Cleansers:
Nude Skincare Perfect Cleanse Clarifying Cleansing Oil
Youth To The People Cleanser
Nude Skincare Purify Cleansing Wash
Tula Probiotic Purifying Skin Cleanser
*I tend to double cleanse when it comes to washing my skin in the AM/PM. I like to use both a sudsy cleanser along with something milky, to reduce an off-balance pH.
Sunscreens:
Dr.Jart Every Sun day UV Illuminating Sunscreen SPF 36
CONTEXT DAILY INTENSIVE MOISTURIZER SPF 15
Dr.Jart BB BEAUTY BALM SPF45
Dr.Jart CERAMIDIN DAY TINT SPF 15
*If you skip sunscreen, nothing else you do will matter. DO NOT SKIP SUNSCREEN. My current favorite is Dr.Jart's Illuminating Suncreen & BB Beauty Balm. I've been alternating between those two the past few weeks.
Primers & Concealers:
Cle Cosmetics CCC Cream
MARC JACOBS UNDER COVER PERFECTING COCONUT FACE PRIMER
BAREMINERALS BARESKIN COMPLETE COVERAGE SERUM CONCEALER
*Primers are the foundation to smooth, silky skin. After sunscreen, this is your money maker.
Moisturizers:
Glossier Balm Dotcom
Belif True Cream Moisturizing Balm
Dr.Jart Ceramidin Gel Cream
*Did you know if you have oily skin you should actually moisturize? It's your skin's way of telling you it needs more moisture.
Face:
Alima Pure Pressed Mineral Powder
Cle Cosmetics Essence Air Cushion Face Foundation
*I've tried many powders in my day, and my favorite (by far) is by Alima Pure.
Highlighters:
Glossier Haloscope
Alima Pure Mineral Highlighter
*Highlighters are your best friend. They compliment your features, and give you this glow that people can't quite understand how you look so damn good at 8am.
Brows:
SONIA KASHUK Longwear Eyebrow Pencil
Glossier Boy Brow
*THE HOLY GRAIL. A good brow is like a well-put together outfit for your face. Don't forget about them.
Face Mists:
Glossier Soothing Rose Face Mist
Herbivore Botanical Rose Water Mist
*The ultimate refresher, toner, and makeup setting magic.
Lips:
Herbivore Botanicals Coco Rose Lip Tint
*I'm constantly trying new lip colors and this one has my attention.
Masks:
Tula Probiotic Skin Exfoliating Treatment Mask
Dr.Jart Dermaclear Trans-foam Clay Trio Masks
Glossier Mega Greens Galaxy Pack Mask
Glossier Moisturizing Moon Mask
Nude Skincare Purify Deep Cleansing Mask
Rodial Dragon's Blood Eye Masks
*I tend to do a mask at least once a day depending on the condition of my skin, and I swear it makes everything better, every time.
Oils:
Nude Skincare ProGenius Firming Youth Oil
Nude Skincare ProGenius Omega Treatment Rescue Oil
Youth To The People Age Prevention Firm and Brightening Serum
*Say hello to your youthful secret weapon. I don't have rules when it comes to oils & serums. I typically like to rotate through and have a bunch of different kinds to combat what's needed.
Scents:
Le Labo 'Santal 33' Eau De Parfum
Maison Louis Marie Antidris Cassis Perfume
*Do these remind you of me? I hope so.
