A list of skincare products that I actually use every single week. Most of these products are repetitively used in my routine over the past few years. I am still perfecting my skincare routine in my 30s so this list is subject to change and/or expand...

Cleansers
The best and most affordable face wash. I use it every single day.
PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash 10% Benzoyl Peroxide

I added this one to my routine this year and will continue. It is reliable and works great as a second wash in your routine.
Face Wash & Face Cleansers for All Skin Types | La Roche-Posay
Another affordable face wash that gets it all out of your skin
Soap & Glory Face Soap & Clarity Facial Wash 11.8 oz - Walmart.com
Toners
My absolute favorite and most effective witch hazel toner.
We all know and love this toner from going viral a few months ago. If you are wanting to clear up major hyperpigmentation and feel your skin needs this daily, get it!
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner
Been using this toner for about a month after finding it in Marshall's randomly and I love it. I believe it has contributed to less texture and overall visibly less pores.
Beauty of Joseon Green Plum AHA BHA Toner
Moisturizers/Oils
This call in one cream is truly that. If you love the snail mucin essence, this will take your skin to a new level of moisture. I like it better to use at night so my skin can really soak it all in uninterrupted by the environment.
COSRX Snail Mucin 92% Moisturizer, 3.52 Oz
2
An oldie but a goodie. For the colder months, I reach for this each morning before work as a topper over my spf moisturizer.
Ponds Dry Skin Cream
In LOVE with this whipped day cream!! I found this in Marshall's and it contained a lot of ingredients I was looking for in my next SPF cream. It has not disappointed me yet.
Cetaphil Face Day Cream, Healthy Radiance
Arguably one of thee best moisturizers I have ever tried. It is perfect for the season because it is THICK and full of all the great things your skin needs. You can also use this on the body which makes it that much more valuable.
Lipikar AP+M Triple Repair Body Moisturizer For Dry Skin
This moisturizer has been a subtle surprise on the days where I need a little extra moisture boost. I put this on AFTER my SPF because it adds moisture back to the skin beautifully.
Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Oil-Free Refillable Moisturizer
Exfoliators
For the price, this at home chemical peel is worth it! You must be consistent and follow the directions to a T; no shortcuts. The results will be amazing.
The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution
I thought the girlies on social media were over-hyping this one..I was wrong. This product is AMAZING. It gets all the dead skin off. Will be purchasing a larger size soon.
Paula's Choice
Masks+Treatments
Just added this to my routine and so far so good. No adverse effects.
Topicals Faded Brightening Serum
When I feel my face needs a reset due to the environment or hormonal changes, I reach for this mask and it does the trick every time.
Teami Detox Face Mask - Hydrating & Purifying
A treasure for those stubborn breakouts.
AcneFree Acne Clearing Mask, 3.5% Sulfur
One of my absolute favorite masks for detoxing the skin. Use this twice weekly and I promise you will see results. Also, the jar may seem small but a litle goes a long way with this mask. It lasted about 6-8 months with me.
Youth To The People Superclay Power Mask
Really good if you struggle with textured areas on your skin.
Glow Recipe Strawberry BHA Pore Drops
I cannot live without this product. I tried it for the first time after it went completely viral on TikTok last year and OMG. It will change the overall texture and elasticity of the skin.
COSRX Snail Mucin 96% Face Serum 100ml
Eye Care
Easily my favorite eye treatment of the year and it took me all year to find it. Korean skincare is doing great things for our community.
Beauty of Joseon Revive Eye Serum Retinal
This is a good quality everyday eye cream. I used this a few months prior to me purchasing the one by Beauty of Joseon.
Neutrogena Eyes Cream
I love this eye cream for nighttime. I discovered this at Ulta and have been hooked all year. It does what it says. Just repurchased last month.
