Bare Minimum Skincare (I'm Lazy)

Lotion Bottle emoji 14 items
I’ve always had pretty decent skin—super oily, but not much acne besides the occasional pimple or stress/hormonal breakout. I’m pretty low-maintenance (read: lazy) when it comes to skincare, so this isn’t a 12-step routine. Everything here is simple,...

Cleansers

I’ve tried a lot of face washes, but these are the ones I keep coming back to—they work best for me and my skin.

My new favorite everyday cleanser. Cleanses and moisturizes but doesn’t leave my face feeling stripped. Also it doesn’t break me out which is huge because my skin is so sensitive.

Not an everyday thing, but when my skin’s breaking out and needs extra help, this always does the trick.

I love this one for mornings or when my skin’s clear. Great for oily skin and leaves it feeling super clean.
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Cleanser

Oil Cleanser

Oil cleansers went viral, so I gave them a try—and they really do make a difference. My skin’s way less irritated the day after wearing makeup when I remove it with one of these.

I definitely fell for the hype on this (and oil cleansers in general), but it really did make a difference—especially for taking off makeup.

Grabbed this at T.J.Maxx on a whim when I decided to try an oil cleanser. It’s pretty watery, but it works really well.
PrettySkin - Rice Cleansing Oil

Toner Pads

I use these after washing my face—morning and night—or before makeup. With super oily skin, I’ll take all the cleansing help I can get to avoid breakouts, and these have become a go-to.

Saw these all over TikTok and they’re worth the hype. I’ve especially noticed a difference around my nose, where oil usually builds up.

I used these before the Medicube ones and love them just as much. I keep these on my makeup vanity and the Medicube ones in my bathroom.
Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Pads

Milky Toner

Even with oily skin, I still need extra hydration and something to help calm redness. This is the only milky toner I’ve tried, but I’m a big fan.

The only milky toner I’ve tried, and it’s great—hydrates without making my skin oily and feels amazing going on.
Hydrating Milky Toner

Moisturizers

Finding a moisturizer that’s lightweight enough not to clog my pores but still hydrates is tricky—but these have worked great for me.

My all-time favorite moisturizer. It’s the only one I’ve tried that actually does its job without clogging my pores or making me more oily. Lightweight, effective, and feels amazing going on.

Contradictory, I know, but I only use this at night or when my skin feels extra dry. A little goes a long way, and it rehydrates my skin pretty much overnight.
Vanicream™ Moisturizing Cream for Dry, Sensitive Skin

Spot Treatment

I don't have a ton of recommendations in this area , but at least I know it works!

This stuff works overnight—clears up random breakouts fast without drying out my skin.

Hear me out! If you have a stubborn pimple or a patch of acne you need to dry out try the calamine lotion. My dad taught me this forever ago and it's still a go to for me.

Exfoliating

If you have sensitive skin, I’d use one of these with your regular face wash instead of an exfoliating wash. That's what I did because exfoliants with those little beads strip my skin way too bad.
