My Everyday Skincare Routine – January 2023

Hello friends!

It has been a while since I shared my skincare routine so I thought it would be fun to do that today. I also have a reel on my Instagram walking through all of it – crazy!

Let’s go!

Clean

My nighttime step one is removing makeup and sunscreen! I use this Clinique Cleansing Balm if I am wearing makeup – which honestly is only a few days a week. It’s key to removing makeup before trying to clean my skin.

Then I go in with this Obagi Gentle Cleanser. It cleans *without stripping* moisture from my skin. None of that stripped or dry feeling after using this cleaner – yay.

Treat

At night I will wear my Currentbody LED mask for a 10 minute cycle. I am working on a full review but I am already seeing improved skin tone from using this mask everyday for 3 weeks. I can notice more glowiness and my skin looks softer – I’m obsessed! (Check back in a few months for a full review)

Then I will spray this Avene Thermal Spring Water to rehydrate my skin after the LED mask.

Every other night – so 3 or 4 days a week – I use these Elemis Toning Pads on my face and neck. Guys, if you buy one item from this post, get these toning pads. They improved the tone and texture of my skin almost immediately. I can tell when I forget to use them for a few days because my skin looks duller. I love them so so much and they go on sale frequently! Win!

Moisturize

My skin is dry so I rely on great moisturizers to lock in all the moisture I have added so far. I have used this Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream for years and it works so well for me. It’s hydrating but not sticky or tacky.

Lastly I add Kiehl’s Avocado Eye Cream to my upper checkbones for some extra hydration. Most eye creams aren’t necessary *but* I can see that my undereye area is hydrated the more I use this Kiehl’s Cream. So I continue to use it!

Sunscreen

Every morning I put on my EltaMD sunscreen. Aging and skin cancer is no joke so this is such an important last step!

I used to dread doing my skincare at night and would skip it in the morning, but consistency is the key to results so I definitely prioritize my skincare routines. Plus it is a great way to start the day and unwind at night. A few moments for myself in my otherwise busy days 🙂
