1. CLEANSER

Start with a good cleanse. 💦 I added another option so you can choose based on your preference, or whichever one is easier to get.

Definitely my go-to for a fresh, gentle cleanse after a long day on site or in the office. I always use it to clean away sweat, dirt, and excess oil without leaving my skin feeling dry 💚

Green Plum Refreshing Cleanser for Gentle Daily Wash - Beauty of Joseon

2ND OPTION! For a gentle everyday cleanser that gives a good cleanse without that tight, stripped feeling. Especially nice after a long day on site or when my skin feels a little more dry and sensitive. 💙 I've been using this product for almost 2 ye...

Water Bank Gentle Gel Cleanser Cleanse & Hydrate - Laneige

2. EXFOLIATOR

For those days when my skin needs a little reset — helping smooth out texture and get rid of that dull, buildup-y feeling without going overboard. ✨

My gentle exfoliating pick for when my skin feels a little dull or textured. ✨ I use it at night, 2x a week (1x a week for beginners). Perfect for giving my skin a smoother, brighter-looking finish without overdoing it. 💕

The Ordinary - Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% High-Strength Exfoliating Serum ...

3. TONER

My favorite step for adding that extra layer of hydration before serum and moisturizer. 💕 I especially love milky/watery toners that leave skin soft instead of sticky. Take note that I let my exfoliating serum dry first (about 3 to 5 mins) before ...

If you have oily/combination and sensitive skin, don't let the milky texture scare you! This toner gives my skin that extra boost of hydration without making it feel overly greasy or heavy. I love that it leaves my skin feeling soft, plump, smooth,...

Cream Skin Milky Toner: 2-in-1 Hydration Hero

4. SERUM

This is where I like to target whatever my skin needs most — hydration, soothing, glow, or just an extra little boost. ✨ I actually use 2 serum from SKIN1004. One for daytime and one during the night.

My go-to when my skin needs extra soothing and hydration. I love using this during the day, especially when my skin feels sensitive or a little stressed after a long day on site. 💚

SKIN1004 - Madagascar Centella Ampoule

My go-to when my pores look more noticeable. 🩷 I’ve been using this at night and have noticed my pores looking a little less visible and my skin feeling smoother. Definitely one I keep reaching for!

SKIN1004 - Madagascar Centella Poremizing Fresh Ampoule

5. MOISTURIZER

For moisturizers, I look for one that give me enough hydration for my dry areas without making my oily areas feel weighed down. 💙 Out of all the moisturizers I used, these 2 are the ones I always repurchase for day time and night time.

My daytime moisturizer when I want my skin to feel soft and hydrated without feeling too heavy. 💙 It works well under sunscreen and keeps my skin comfortable whether I'm out on site or in the office. ✨

Water Bank Blue Hyaluronic Cream Moisturizer

My nighttime moisturizer from SKIN1004 when I want something lightweight but still hydrating. 🩷 I like using this when I'm focusing on my pores and keeping my skin feeling smooth and balanced overnight.

Madagascar Centella Poremizing Light Gel Cream

6. SUNSCREEN

The non-negotiable final step. ☀️ These are the ones I'd reach for when I want good protection without feeling like I'm wearing a thick layer of sunscreen.

My pick when I want my sunscreen to do a little more. ☀️ I love the glowy finish it gives my skin, and it works beautifully under makeup without feeling like a heavy layer of SPF.

Supergoop! Glowscreen SPF 40 - Tinted Sunscreen & Primer

One of my favorites for everyday SPF! ☀️ It's lightweight, comfortable, and leaves my skin feeling hydrated without that heavy or greasy sunscreen feeling. Perfect for both site days and office days.

Beauty of Joseon - Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics

7. LIP CARE

Skincare doesn't stop at the face so here's my lip favorite for keeping my lips soft, smooth, and hydrated.

⭐ 8.5/10! Definitely more expensive than a typical lip balm, BUT if you're looking for soft, hydrated lips with a little glossy finish, this is such an easy everyday lip product to reach for. What I love most is that it keeps my lips feeling smooth...

Lip Glowy Balm Moisturize & Nourish - Laneige

Another 8.5/10! This one is for the days when I want my lip care to feel a little more like a treat than just a basic balm. It gives my lips a smooth, juicy-looking finish while keeping them comfortable and moisturized throughout the day. ✨ Warning:...
