My Skincare Faves
This is a really good micellar water if you have sensitive skin, and/or contact dermatitis! It's a really good option that also gives you a lot of bang for your buck.
Sensibio H2O Micellar water - Bioderma
This is a really good lotion for the body if you struggle with Keratosis pilaris! I find regular body lotions just aren't strong enough, but this one makes such a noticeable difference!
SA Cream for Rough & Bumpy Skin - CeraVe
Another really good product if you struggle with Keratosis pilaris! The AHA gives additional, much needed exfoliation.
First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub with 10% AHA
This is a really mild but effective cleanser for sensitive, dry skin! I use this when I'm having an eczema or dermatitis flare up, and it's significantly more affordable than other products by this brand!
Lipikar Surgras Bar Soap - Cleansing Bar - La Roche-Posay
Another afforadble, mild and gentle cleanser for sensitive, dry skin!
Aveeno ® Calm + RESTORE NOURISHING Oat CLEANSER
I use this once or twice a week specifically on my nose! It really helps with the oil and dirt build up, and those pesky sebaceous filliments.
SKINCARE - Pore Clearing Clay Mask with Volcanic Clusters
I never see anyone talk about this brand, but it's a super affordable, accessible Korean skincare brand! I use this serum as a spot treatment as well as in my t-zone.
my iN.gredients Salicylic Acid Solution
This is a really, really nice hydrating serum. What sets it apart from others is that it uses glycerin as opposed to hyaluronic acid, like most serums for hydration. The glycerin keeps your skin hydrated longer, and gives you a glass-like skin effect...
Hydrating Serum - Byoma
I think this is by far my favourite toner. It instantly hydrates and plumps my skin, and because of it's thicker consistency, you don't need nearly as much as other toners, so this bottle should last you a little longer than usual too! I've used unde...
Hydrating Milky Toner - Byoma
This is a really good, gradual self tanner for the face! I found it to be even more hydrating than a lot of hydrating serums I've tried before as well.
Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Facial Drops, Fragrance-Free
This is kind of a universal balm for the skin. I've used on my face, on my hands, on eczema patches, on hives, and it never fails to soothe any irritation. One of the cheaper La Roche Posay products too, which is always a plus! It's a very thick mois...
Cicaplast Balm B5 for Dry Skin Irritations - La Roche-Posay
This is a hybrid treatment cream/makeup remover for sensitive skin, prone to contact dermatitis! I use this around my eyes whenever I notice irritation, and have had overnight results.
Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Eye Cream is a holy grail you can use ...
If you have dry skin and/or struggle with KP, you'll notice an immediate difference after using this body lotion! I've been using this consistently with a glycolic acid toner and I've noticed patches of my KP disappearing.
Intensive Moisturizing Lotion - CeraVe
Skincare Basics (Effective & Affordable)
Whether you yourself are new to skincare, or you have a young one looking to start their skincare journey, I've got you covered! This section will be dedicated to products that are simple, straightforward, and affordable, to help you curate your own ...
This is a really gentle cleanser that I recommend for young teens/pre-teens who don't necessarily have any blaring skin concerns, but would like a daily facial cleanser! This is going to effectively cleanse the skin without the use of any harsh fragr...
Kind to Skin Moisturizing Facial Wash - Simple® Skincare
For anyone struggling with mild oiliness, this would be a really good moisturizer for you! One way to combat excess oil production is to address the root cause, which is often dehydration/dryness. Our skin will naturally over produce oil to compensat...
The INKEY List Omega Water Cream Oil Free Moisturizer - 50ml
Everyone, no matter the age, no matter the season, should be wearing an SPF of at least 50 every single day. However, figuring out what SPF is right for your skin can be a challenge. Mineral sunscreens (also called physical sunscreens) are a good opt...
Invisible Daily Defense Hydrating Face Serum SPF 60+ - Neutrogena
This is a good 2-in-1 daily moisturizer and SPF for those looking for a light-weight, fast absorbing formula! This won't leave a white cast, nor will it leave the skin looking and feeling greasy. It'll hydrate and moisturize the skin while also prote...
Hydro Boost Water Gel Lotion SPF 50 - Neutrogena
This serum is good for anyone struggling with acne (note: hormonal acne may require something stronger), blackheads, and oiliness. Salycilic acid is a BHA, which is a chemical exfoliant that works deep below the skin's surface to clean out the dirt a...
my iN.gredients Salicylic Acid Solution
If you're struggling with redness, enlarged pores, and/or oiliness, I would definitely recommend this niacinamide serum! A simple, straightforward ingredient list, perfect for sensitive skin! It's also perfectly safe to use in combination with active...
my iN.gredients Niacinamide Serum | Shoppers Drug Mart
Very simple, hydrating serum for anyone looking to add some hydration to their skin! Perfect for adult, teens, and pre-teens who aren't looking to address any particular skin concerns, but are looking to start their skincare journey. It uses glycerin...
BYOMA Hydrating Serum | Shoppers Drug Mart
