the basics
a good cleanser + moisturizer + SPF are non-negotiable. keep it simple, keep it consistent
My go-to when I want my skin to feel actually clean without feeling stripped afterwards. The green tea + superfood antioxidants are a nice little bonus too 💚
Youth to the People Kale & Green Tea Face Cleanser
THE perfect moisturizer if you hate heavy creams. It gives my oily skin all the hydration it needs without leaving me feeling greasy or weighed down
Hydro Boost Neutrogena Moisturizer For Oily Skin
Keeps your skin protected from the sun while feeling lightweight and comfortable.
SPF 50 Clinique Mineral Sunscreen
the good stuff
okay, now for the fun stuff. the treatments, exfoliators & extras I reach for when the basics aren't enough
Definitely worth the hype! I originally got this for my acne, but it quickly became my go-to for rough skin in other areas too. My feet especially LOVE it
Multi-use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid
This is one of those products where I actually noticed a difference. My skin feels smoother, my pores look less congested and it’s become a staple whenever my skin starts acting up.
AHA & BHA Paula's Choice Exfoliator
My little emergency weapon for surprise breakouts. I pop one on overnight and let it do its thing — it helps protect the spot from me picking at it while the salicylic acid gets to work.
The INKEY List Hydrocolloid Pimple Patches
My go-to when my skin is looking red, irritated or just generally not having it. Lightweight, easy to layer and leaves my skin looking calmer and more even. Definitely one I keep coming back to.
Anua's Azelaic Acid Redness Soothing Serum
My secret weapon. It’s definitely an active, so I had to ease my way into it, but this is the one product I keep coming back to when I want to keep breakouts under control.
Differin 0.1% Adapalene
little extras
not exactly essentials, but definitely worth having
My little overnight lip reset. I put this on before bed when my lips are feeling dry and wake up with them feeling ridiculously soft. A tiny bit goes a long way, too!
Lip Sleeping Mask by Laneige
The perfect little self-care moment. I love using this when my skin needs an extra boost of hydration — it leaves my skin feeling super soft, plump and refreshed afterwards.
Bio-Collagen Real Deep Hydrating Mask
