Let’s talk face/skin care!!✨✨ Being in my mid-20s, I have all types of concerns. Anti-aging, sun protection, combination type skin, you name it! Because of this, I hate sticking to one or two products, and totally recommend these as staples in your beauty regimen!! Check them out on my @liketoknow.it 💋
In order, left to right, front to back!
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% – I love using this product to help when my skin is a bit oily than normal. I can get enlarged pores on my cheeks and nose, and this stuff really helps do the trick! It helps reduce oily skin without drying it out and is vegan/cruelty free!
Peace Out Retinol Eye Stick – This is a new product and when I saw it, I knew I had to have it! Retinol is obviously the holy grail in today’s beauty to use for anti-aging, but I always hate putting it near my eyes since it can get in them and burn! This solves that issue with a creamy stick application. I swear it doesn’t move from the area you swipe it on! Recommend this 500%.
The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% Squalane – This is the retinol product I use for the rest of my face. Not only is it affordable, but I love that it’s pure retinol (no unnecessary ingredients added!). I typically mix this with the Pacifica coconut probiotic moisturizer or Glossier priming moisturizer and apply at night, typically once a week or more. I then cover my eye area with the Peace Out retinol eye stick!
Alba Botanica Acne Dote Moisturizer – I’ve struggled with acne my entire life, literally I’ve had it since I was in kindergarten. Luckily, it’s eased up quite a bit since I entered my 20s but I still get a spot here and there. I’ve had so much success with Alba’s entire line of Acne Dote products and love that it’s all natural. Every time I see a spot appear, I apply this moisturizer and it usually disappears within a day or two!
Pacifica Coconut Probiotic Moisturizer – I was first introduced to this moisturizer a couple months ago since it was on sale at Target and I now absolutely love it! It’s a lightweight moisturizer that really soothes my skin. It’s so nice to apply when I’ve had a stressful day or just feel like relaxing. For sure one of my new go-to’s!
Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Hydrating Moisturizer SPF 45 – This is now my holy grail of SPF moisturizer that I apply on days I know I’ll be outside quite a bit. I feel that a face SPF product is a must to protect your skin and ever since I was introduced to this product to try complimentary, I feel it’s the best out there! It’s so lightweight for a sunscreen product to where you can’t even tell that it’s there (while it also hydrates your skin). What more could you want from an SPF moisturizer?
Glossier Priming Moisturizer – Last, but definitely not least, is my priming moisturizer! My friend let me try a sample of this moisturizer and I love the way my skin felt after using it. It’s meant to prime your skin which is amazing to use before wearing make up. It gives your skin a matte kind of look without losing any moisture on your face!
