items Start your day with skin that’s plump and glowy. This daytime routine is all about flooding your skin with lightweight, hydrating layers—think essence, serum, and gel moisturizer—to deeply replenish moisture without heaviness. The result? A smooth, b...
I like to really work this product into my skin. Lather, and cleanse the skin until it almost looks absorbed, then add water to emulsify. Make sure to then completely wash off.
OLEHENRIKSEN Truth Juice™ Gentle Glow Daily Cleanser
So moisturizing without clogging or causing breakouts. I even add this to my body wash for extra hydration all over.
Glycerin Cleanser For The Face & Body - Gleanser - Prequel
I use these about 3 times a week. If I know I’m going to do a full face up makeup, these exfoliate and bring a glow to my skin, making my makeup lay beautifully on top.
First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads with Glycolic + Lactic Acids
Moist (not wet) skin absorbs products better and helps lock in moisture. I spray my face with thermal water or beauty elixir before starting my skin care, or between some layers if my skin needs extra hydration.
Avène Thermal Spring Water
Another great option to spray before applying essence, in between layers, or at the end to lock in moisture.
Caudalie Beauty Elixir Prep, Set, Glow Face Mist
The key to layering your skincare is to flood the skin with light weight products. This has the consistency of water, but is deeply soothing. My skin felt softer after the first use. I apply 2-3 layers of this.
Hanyul Artemisia Soothing Toner with Centella Asiatica and Panthenol
After my essence, I go in with a lightweight serum.
Multi-Quench Polyglutamic Acid Serum For Skin Moisturization - Prequel
This milky toner is a little thicker, so I like to apply it after my hyaluronic acid or lightweight serum.
LANEIGE Cream Skin Refillable Toner & Moisturizer with Ceramides and ...
Next I like to use a PDRN serum. This one from medicube never clogs my pores and makes my skin glow.
medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum, Pink glow ...
This is THE serum you need for beautiful, glowy skin. It helps with acne, dark spots, and fine lines. I notice a difference in my skin when I run out of this product and always like to keep it on hand. I’ve gone through at least 6 bottles.
Caudalie Vinoperfect Brightening Dark Spot Serum Vitamin C Alternative
Plumping and glowy! Perfect layered under makeup
Tatcha The Dewy Serum Resurfacing and Plumping Treatment
Great for day time use as it doesn’t pull under makeup
iNNBEAUTY PROJECT Extreme Cream Eye Firming & Contouring Refillable ...
My holy grail moisturizer. I have acne/clog prone skin and this very breaks me out. It’s beautiful and glowy under makeup, and moisturizing enough to use at night as well.
Strength Trainer Peptide Boost Moisturizer - OLEHENRIKSEN
Perfect beauty oil to use day and night. I personally only use this during the day if I’m not planning on wearing makeup. Gives a gorgeous glow.
OLEHENRIKSEN Hydrabarrier Nourishing Peptide Face Oil
Make sure to use sunscreen to protect against sun damage! I prefer mineral sunscreens as most chemical sunscreens break me out. This one has a very thin, water-like consistency that I like because it never feels too heavy on the skin.
Caudalie Vinosun Protect Brightening Daily Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 50
I will never stop recommending this product. I use it multiple times a day and it always makes my lips look plump and moisturized.
OLEHENRIKSEN Pout Preserve Hydrating Peptide Lip Treatment
Great for “no makeup” days. Covers enough to minimize dark circles if you don’t want to wear concealer.
OLEHENRIKSEN Banana Bright+ Vitamin CC Eye Sticks for Dark Circles
