Cleanser
You need to cleanse in the morning to get a good base!
A great, very gentle, non-stripping cleanser is ideal for pre-makeup! And this one is perfect for a morning cleanse!
13.5 oz Milky-Soft Face and Body Wash - cocokind | Ulta Beauty
Hydrating Toner
You don’t want something super exfoliating, but a milky toner keeps your skin smooth and plumps it a bit too!
This is such a good primer! It’s so hydrating and gives your face a nice bounce!
drench it soothing priming milk with rice water - point of view.
Hydrating Serums
I always like to prime my skin with some hydrating serums before makeup!
This is my current favorite hyaluronic acid serum because it adds electrolytes and glycerin in as well!
Hydrating Electrolyte Rescue Serum - cocokind | Ulta Beauty
I only use this on my driest days but it makes any dehydration disappear!
Super Saturated Hydrating Barrier Serum with 30% Glycerin + Polyglutamic Acid - Experiment
Moisturizer
You want a cream that’s relatively light and very moisturizing but that leaves your skin a little tacky.
The whipped texture is so light and fluffy and I love that it supports the skin barrier and never pills!
whip it hydrating whipped cream with ectoin - point of view.
Sunscreen
Light and serum-y sunscreens are a winner in my book!
Serum-like texture and blends right in! Smells like watermelon!!!
Dew Shield SPF 30 Hydrating Fluid Sunscreen - Glow Recipe
Bronzing Drops
To bring a bit of a glow! Now remember to let your skincare sit for at least 15 minutes!
These are the classic bronzing drops for a reason!
