CeraVe Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser
Step 2 (cleansing #2 for clearer skin): Lush has amazing face cleansers like Telling the Bees and Sleepy Bear. They are silky smooth and a great first step to your morning routines and in the shower or tub. Can be used daily as a second wash and they...

Instead of Laneige, this is a gentle treatment that helps improve the appearance of uneven skin tone while adding hydration. It's a great fit for recovery nights because it pairs well with barrier-supporting products.
Multi-Active Day Face Cream - All Skin Types - Clarins
This is a 3rd option I like that's much more affordable than Laneige or Clarins. Gives gentle exfoliation and helps smooth out skin and brighten your skin. Great on my sensitive skin.
Sephora Gentle Peeling Serum
Skin Recovery: My go-to whenever my skin feels irritated, over-exfoliated, or extra dry. It's one of my favorite products for supporting my skin barrier after treatments.
Cicaplast Balm B5+
👁️Eye Treatment for Delicate Eyes
These products help keep my under-eye area hydrated and comfortable while layering well with the rest of my routine. They are specifically chosen for my thin skin and NOT for dark pigmentation.
Targets under eye circles due to thinning skin. Light and easy to use. Great for use on eyes with thin skin and NOT skin pigment.
Target Dark Circles Multi-Peptide Eye Serum
My Wednesdays & Sunday reset eye cream when I want a little extra care for the delicate eye area. It provides rich hydration while helping the skin feel firmer and smoother, making it a great option when I want to wake up looking more refreshed.
VT Reedle Shot Lifting Eye Cream
💆Face Masks
These are luxurious face masks I use for extra plumping and smoothing.
My favorite midweek mask when my skin needs extra hydration. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed, soft, and ready for my Thursday morning routine.
BIODANCE Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
This is another collagen mask option that isn't meant for overnight, but only an hour. I also find this one very hydrating and luxurious as well.
