items If you’ve seen my skin on TikTok or YouTube, then you know I deal with hyperpigmentation and dark marks. I’m a dark-skin girlie, so they’re very noticeable — and I’ve been sharing my real healing journey. On my YouTube channel @delayalowery, I have a...

Clensers | Wash Day Essentials✨
If you’re looking for affordable foaming cleansers that actually work and don’t dry your skin out, these are for you. They clean without stripping, help reset your skin, and keep your face fresh morning or night. Perfect for dark-skin girlies who nee...
This cleanser is super gentle on my face and never leaves my skin feeling dry. It washes away all the buildup — thick skin, oil, or leftover makeup from the night before or that very morning. This is one of my day ones, (helps that it’s affordable!) ...
Foaming Facial Cleanser for Normal to Oily Skin
This cleanser is a little bit on the higher-priced side, but if you get it in the bundle with the cleanser, moisturizer, and serum, it becomes way more affordable — the bottles are smaller, but still worth every drop.
I’ve only been using this clean...

Makeup wipes are a must in my skincare routine because I have a terrible habit of falling asleep in my makeup. When I’m super tired and need something quick, these wipes take all my makeup off in one wipe. They’re hydrating, alcohol-free, fragrance-f...
Hydrating Makeup Remover Plant-Based Wipes
These were my day one makeup wipes — literally the first ones I ever used when I realized I kept falling asleep with a full face on (which you can see all over my TikTok and YouTube @delayalowery lol). I used these a little too much, but for a good r...

Serums | Brighten, Heal, Glow✨

Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid are the duo for brightening and hydrating, and this serum has both. The pH level is 5.0, which helps it absorb beautifully into the skin. Since adding it to my routine, it has helped moisturize, brighten, and fade my dar...
Aca Vitamin C+ Hyaluronic Acid Serum, 1 oz
I didn’t know I needed this serum in my life until I tried it… and now I buy it religiously. Lactic acid helps brighten the skin, reduce pigmentation and scarring, and gently exfoliate to leave your face smooth and glowing.
It is a little bit on the...
Lactic Acid 10% + HA: High-Strength Exfoliator for Dry Skin
This serum is so good. I love using it with the rest of my The Ordinary routine — the Lactic Acid Serum, the Moisturizing Moisturizer, and the Foaming Cleanser. Everything works together so well.
This one is on the higher-priced side, but it is abso...

Toners | Balance & Refresh✨
Toners don’t get enough love, but they make such a difference. These are the toners I’ve tried and loved — the ones that balance your skin, prep it for serums, reduce excess oil, and leave your face feeling clean and refreshed without irritation. Per...
Thayers has so many amazing toners — Rose Petal, Lavender, Witch Hazel — and I recommend all of them, but the Blemish Clearing one is my personal favorite. Since adding this into my routine, my blemishes have definitely reduced. As of right now, I ha...

I am obsessed with this moisturizer. It actually moisturizes my skin without ever feeling heavy. It’s thin, lightweight, and perfect for everyday use. I especially love mixing it with my sunscreen — the glow is unreal.
This moisturizer is amazing be...
Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA
This was my very first moisturizer ever, and it has always worked for me. It’s a light-to-medium weight moisturizer, which I don’t mind at all — it keeps my face hydrated without feeling heavy or cakey.
It’s also makeup-girlie approved. If you like ...

Sunscreen | Protect your glow✨
Everybody — and I mean everybody — needs sunscreen. Light skin, brown skin, dark skin… sunscreen is non-negotiable. I personally only reach for SPF 75+, and these are lightweight, water resistant, easy to apply, and perfect under makeup.
If you’re a...
As I’ve said before, I only use sunscreens that are SPF 75 and higher because they actually work. Sunscreen is essential for protecting your skin barrier from the sun and helping prevent dark spots and uneven skin tone — especially if you’re actively...

These are the little extras that keep my skin on track — the things I reach for when I need quick results or a boost. From acne patches that flatten bumps overnight to turmeric bars that help brighten dark marks, this section is all about those probl...
I am all for acne patches, and I truly think every single person needs them. If you leave these on for about 4–6 hours, the pimple or cyst is gone — all the pus is pulled out and the bump visibly flattens. I am literally obsessed.
These patches help...
