My Current Favorite Skincare Products & Routine

Over the last few weeks I have been experimenting with many different skincare products. Now I have come down to decide which are my current favorite products at the moment. Lets get started!

Mask:

Michael Todd True Organics Pumpkin Mask- I switch on and off between a few other masks. However, this is my favorite one out of all of them. It helps brighten my face as well as making sure it stays pimple-free. I only do masks at night.

Cleansers:

Michael Todd True Organics Cleanse and Tone- This cleanser really makes my skin feel very refreshing and pimples free. Takes off the excess makeup that I couldn't take off completely with my makeup wipes as well. I use this for both morning and night as my daily cleanser.
CLEANSE AND TONE

Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Exfoliating Scrub- I scrub my face every other day after I cleanse. This is the step that I do to keep my face oil-free and pimple-free as well. I only exfoliate my face at night.

Toner:

SK-II Facial Treatment Essence- I use this with a cotton pad after I cleanse my face, but before I moisturize as a toner. I do this morning & night.


Moisturizers:

Etude House Collagen Moistfull Cream- I use this as a moisturizer and night cream only for the night. It really moisturize my skin without being oily.


Eve Lom Moisturizer SPF 15- I only use this during the day, because it has SPF. I have never love any moisturizer like this before. I will definitely repurchase it until I can find a better product to replace it!


Eve Lom Day Cream- Just like the other Eve Lom product, it is expensive but a total investment. I apply this with a very generous coat on top of the Eve Lom Moisturizer SPF 15. I only use this during the day as well.


Ahava Extreme Firming Eye Cream- This eye cream rejuvenate my eye area very well. I absolutely love it! I can feel that it is firming my eye area to prevent wrinkles and fine lines. I use this during the day and night after I have applied my moisturizer.


Serums:

Knu Anti Aging Face Lift Serum- This is the last step I do every night, if and only if I don't have a pimple which I will talk more about with the next product. I just dot a few drops on my face and just rub it in with light hands after I moisturize my face, because I don't want to rub off my moisturizers. I do this to lift and firm my face to prevent aging at an early age.

Abbey St. Claire Spot Remover Serum & Poultice for Blemishes- If I have a pimple or if I know a pimple is about to approach, I would use a Q-tip with this serum and dot it on that pimple. This serum is a magical product, because the pimple would disappear in the morning. I only do this at night as my last step.


This is everything that I do day and night for my skincare routine.
