I love makeup and skincare and have since I was young. I have dehydrated skin, acne off and on, redness and uneven skin tone. These are products I've tried and loved over the years. Some I continue to buy and some I will buy again in the future. My acne is from hormones mostly, I have always been diligent with washing my face and caring for my skin. Another thing that really helped my skin start to recover is upping my water intake and stop smoking. Let me know if you have any questions!

Products I use in my current skin care routine or have used and loved. I would consider my skin type to be combination to oily skin. Where my T-zone is usually the most oily area. I used to have lots of acne and I consider I have large pores, so a skin care routine has definitely helped improve my skin barrier and appearance. Now, I usually only notice acne during hormonal periods such as menstruation. I also love and recommend a good skin care routine before applying makeup. These are recommendations for two times a day skin care routine- SPF and vitamin C in the morning and retinols before bed. Yet to find a retinol/retinal I love on my skin.
I seriously have repurchased these items time and time again for YEARS!! Some of these products are used daily or monthly, depending on the purchase, and I would recommend them to anyone!! I try to choose cruelty-free products and use all/most of these while pregnant as well- so you know they’re safe 🫶🏼 I hope you enjoy adding these to your self-care routine!
