Daily basics
My everyday skincare routine step by step, with the products I actually use daily.
First step: it melts away any makeup or dirt and leaves my skin feeling clean.
Garnier - Micellar Water
It’s affordable, gentle, and somehow lasts me nearly a year even though I use it twice a day.
CeraVe - Hydrating Cleanser (473ml)
Refreshing, and the caffeine gives a nice energizing boost. It’s also lasting me forever!
Venus - Tonico Detox (400ml)
It really helps me manage my dark circles and the darker skin I have around my eyes.
The Ordinary - Caffeine Solution 5%
Dropology is one of my fave brands, I love the clean, minimal packaging, and it’s affordable.
Dropology - Zinc + Niacinamide 11%
This is my morning must, it literally makes me leave the house glowing!
Dropology - Vitamin C Solution 15%
It changed how I use my gua sha because it glides smoothly, leaving my skin not oily at all.
Aliver - Rosehip Oil
This one is perfect even if it’s cheap. I try to use it at least 5 days per week!
Jade Gua Sha + Jade Roller
This one’s perfect because it already has SPF, so I can skip an extra sunscreen step.
CeraVe - Facial Moisturizing AM
…and this is my nightly go-to.
CeraVe - Moisturizing Lotion PM
My lashes and brows feel stronger, and I swear they look better even without makeup!
The Ordinary - Lash and Brow Serum
Basically my daily lip plumper, hyaluronic acid makes my lips flawless and extra hydrated.
Nivea - Hyaluronic Acid Lip Balm
Weekly boosts
…and these are the products I grab when my skin needs a reset or some extra care.
My nighttime lip ritual: twice a week, and by morning my lips are soft and smooth.
Handmade Heroes - Lip Scrub
2 or 3 nights a week, one of my favorite products (I try a different scent every time).
Laneige - Lip Sleeping Mask
I keep this in the fridge and use it when my eyes feel tired or puffy.
Newgo - Cooling Eye Mask
I recently found out it works wonders if applied thickly and left on all night on the driest areas.
La Roche-Posay - Cicaplast B5
You only need the tiniest amount to massage and it instantly soothes that tight feeling.
Hulka - Vea Lipogel
I always grab a few whenever I find it on sale!
Garnier - Hydra Bomb Tissue Mask
These are my favorites!
ObiPosay - Gold Collagen Masks
I actually gifted it to my boyfriend, but he left it at my place… so I guess it kind of became ours.
Prep - Derma Protective Cream
