My favorite skincare products that loosely follows a multi-step Korean Skincare Routine.

Calming HOCl facial spray that purifies, soothes, and strengthens the skin barrier with magnesium-rich electrolyzed water. Fragrance-free, pH-stabilized, and lab-tested — a refreshing mist for sensitive, reactive, or post-workout skin.

I have this next to the bed to slather on lips, cuticles, any dry skin. Have bought this too many times to count. It's a must.

Great first step in cleaning your face. Easily removes makeup (including waterproof mascara), sunblock and pollutants. Follow with a mild water-based cleanser.

Watch your makeup melt away! It’s solid cleansing balm that melts into a luxurious oil and turns into a nourishing milk texture that rinses off clean.

Said to be a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury's Magic Cream for a fraction of the price. Excellent as a makeup primer to make your makeup look smooth.
Revolution Pro Miracle Cream

Although this cream seems very rich, it won't clog your skin. This healed my skin barrier after over zealous chemical and physical exfoliation. It's a miracle worker!

An Allure magazine Hall of Fame winner. Made with hyaluronic acid and ceramides and oil-free, fragrance free, non-comedogenic. Great for dry winter skin. This is a forever buy for me.

The best facial sunscreen around. I have been using it for decades. Zinc oxide for mineral sun protection. High-purity niacinamide (Vitamin B3) helps reduce appearance of blemishes and discoloration. Vitamin E helps reduce the visible signs of aging....

I've used these for years. They give you an instant peel to help smooth and brighten your skin. Available in 2 strengths: Ultra Gentle, Universal and Extra Strength. I use the Extra Strength without any any irritation.

According to Amazon, I've bought this 12 times already, so I guess you can say I love it. Smells like a tropical vacation. Firms (with Q10) and moisturizes.
