When it comes to skincare, it can be confusing. It feels like there are so many products and options out there, it can be overwhelming. While it can be overwhelming, I believe that skin care is the most important step in a makeup routine. Here is a list of my go-to skin care products.
1. Mario Badescu Lavander Facial Spray
I love this spray! It can be used for so many different things, like a setting spray, primer, or just a spray to use when you need a bit of moisturization throughout the day. It smells like lavender, so that is a plus! You can get it here.
2. Clinique Moisture Surge
I love this moisturizer. A little goes a long way and it completely absorbs into the skin, so there is no residue. It is a bit pricey, so I would recommend going to Sephora and getting a sample before you spend the money on it. You can buy it here.
3. L'oreal Paris Hydra Boost moisturizer
This is another moisturizer that I like. I specifically like to use it at night due to the fact it leaves a bit of a residue once it is rubbed in. I have very dry skin and this stuff is a overnight miracle for it. You can buy it here.
4. Sephora Micellar Water in coconut
I love this because it is inexpensive, a little goes a long way and it gets all of the makeup residue off that the typical makeup remover does not. The one in coconut is nice because it is moisturizing and you do not have to rinse after it (but I would recommend rinsing). You can buy it here.
5. Fresh Black Tea Firming Overnight Mask
I love this sleep mask! You apply it all over the face and leave it on overnight and it tones the face and moisturizes it. It is extremely pricey so I recommend getting samples of it from Sephora. You can buy it here.
6. Freeman's Charcoal and Black Sugar Gel Mask + Scrub
I love this mask so much! It is a great mask if you want to life impurities, but do not want anything too harsh. I have found that it is great for treating acne. The black sugar is also great for exfoliating the skin, making it super smooth. This mask is very inexpensive, so I highly recommend this one! You can buy it here.
7. The Body Shop Almond Milk & Honey Gently Exfoliating Cream Scrub
I LOVE THIS BODY SCRUB!! It is amazing for people with dry skin or eczema! It has very fine exfoliation beads in it, but not too many to be painful. It is super moisturizing due to the almond milk and honey and it smells amazing. It is made specifically for people with dry, sensitive skin, and it uses hypoallergenic fragrance. You can buy it here.
