Best Skincare Routine

I didn’t start wearing heavy makeup until probably about 6 years ago. Since, I started using full coverage foundation it has done some real damage to my skin. Even after taking my makeup off, i never really had a skincare routine; i would just wash my face and that’s it. I began to pay more attention to my skin when I started working from home in 2018. I’ve always had problems on my cheeks where I have dark spots and blemishes from picking at my face. I know, I am the worst at trying to kick bad habits. My routine is similar to the 10 Step Korean Skin Care routine but simplified. It has been working for my skin so far.

Step 1. Toner

After researching a skincare routine that was low maintenance and low in budget, I was able to found something that works for me. I have always heard of Witch Hazel but never with Rose Petal, which I was able to find a brand called Thayer’s Witch Hazel from my local Target. I found that rose petals create the rosewater and are full of natural oils and sugars that help restore dehydrated skin and bring out a natural, dewy, glowing complexion. Rosewater is also full of Vitamin C, which is crucial for collagen production, strengthening skin cells, and fading blemishes and scars.

Step 2. Essence

I have come to obsess over a good serum. I was able to find a Vitamin C serum at TJMaxx. Listen, TJMaxx is a hidden gem of skincare products! You can find all types of great products there that don’t break the bank. Vitamin C is a fast acting serum that produces collagen & brightens for healthy looking skin. I have noticed after applying the serum to my face, my skin is brighter and more refreshed looking.

Step 3. Moisturize

The last step, I moisturize with First Aid Beauty’s Ultra Repair Cream. I absolutely LOVE this moisturizer, it is lightweight and creamy that doesn’t leave your face greasy. I use about a dime size of cream on my face, which makes the size of the tub long-lasting. Less is more! Another reason why I love this moisturizer is it’s not only for your face but you can use it anywhere that suffers from eczema or other skin irritation like sun burns or rashes.

What is your Skincare Routine?

I would love for you guys to tell me what you are using for your skin. I am always looking to try new products and even venture into more clean beauty products like organic foundaions for light coverage that don’t have alot of harsh chemicals. Drop a comment below and let me know.
