Skincare

Who doesn't want to have nice, clear skin? I definitely do. Since I don't wear a ton of makeup, I try my hardest to keep a good skincare routine and keeping a routine is key. Most skin types rely on consistency and will break out otherwise. 

Today, I'm going to share my morning/ night time routine and my go to products! I'm one of those people that sticks on brands- if it works, I keep using it. I'm low key scared to try new things especially since I have somewhat sensitive skin, tbh. 
​

​
My go to skincare brand, which I've found to be the most effective yet not aggressive, the one and only.... MARIO BADESCU. I talk about this brand all the time. It's my holy grail! For reference, I have sensitive, combo/ dry skin.

I started using his products about yeeears ago and I've been hooked ever since. I've drifted to try other brands, just to come back to good ol Mario for my core products. ​

About every other day (or everyday if my face is acting out), I wash my face with the acne facial cleanser and then use the special cucumber toner. I simply apply the toner to my face with a cotton ball. To finish, I use the collagen face moisturizer (with SPF 15). 

​*Side note* If you don't use any SPF, start immediately!! This is not a drill! You MUST have at least SPF 15 in your moisturizer, cc cream, foundation, or just stand alone facial sunscreen. Your skin will thank you.
​
​Below are a few of my favorite products with SPF in it. ​

Something I discovered a couple of years ago and now cannot live without is facial spray. For this, I love the Juice ​Beauty's Hydrating Mist. I set my makeup with it in the morning and occasionally throughout the day.

My night time routine is my favorite, to be honest.  I use to hate washing my face when I was younger and now I look forward to it! 

Every night I remove my makeup with DHC Cleansing Oil. I only used wipes until a girlfriend informed me how wrong I was living. I was so nervous about washing my makeup off with an oil but this has been a game changer. Bye forever wipes, I'm an oil user now! After I fully wash off my makeup, I use this 100% organic rose hip oil. A little goes a long way so I use about 3-4 drops for my entire face. And that's it, oiled up and ready for bed! 

Like I said, skincare is important to me and these are my go to products! I'm trying this year to open my eyes to all of the amazing brands and product out there. I just started using oils and serums this past year and that's made a huge difference. 

Have any products that you can't live without now? Let ya girl know!
