items to accutane or not to accutane? that is no longer the question thanks to these products
i have sensitive, combination, acne-prone skin that seems to hate everything except these products. i spent years (and all my money) building a solid skincare ro...

i use alternate between this and my salicylic acid cleanser. it’s so gentle and hydrating. loveeee hyaluronic acid.
when i first started struggling with acne, i was always trying to dry my skin out… come to find out it was dehydrated and overcompen...
Laneige Water Bank Gentle Gel Cleanser with Hyaluronic Acid
love when i find a product that’s affordable and does its job. i alternate between this cleaner and a gentler one. a little goes a long way, it foams up so nicely and makes my skin feel so clean
The INKEY List Salicylic Acid Cleanser
toners and serums💧
apply this while your face is still damp and follow with moisturizer to enjoy the plumpest, glowiest skin you’ve ever had. trust me on this one!! i haven’t gone a single morning without using this product since the first time i tried it
THE LAB by blanc doux Oligo Hyaluronic Acid Deep Toner
another hyped-up product that actually meets expectations! my dry, dull winter skin lovessssss this. sometimes i layer it with my hyaluronic acid toner (also on this list) for a little extra glow and hydration
rhode Glazing Milk Ceramide Facial Essence
don’t buy unless you want glass skin!!! this product ERASED my pores and totally changed my skin texture.
TMI pro-tip: i also use these on my bikini line for a few days after shaving to prevent bumps and ingrowns. i swear these pads fix everything
medicube Zero Pore Pad 2.0
this one’s a little pricey but if your skin is STRUGGLING and your barrier is destroyed, this product will fix you right up. i ruined my barrier layering harsh product over harsh product trying to dry out my acne, and this brought my skin back to lif...
Dr. Jart Ceramidin Skin Barrier Serum Toner
i’m so glad i fell victim to the hype on this one cuz it actually works!!! i used to have dark spots for MONTHS after every pimple but not anymore. this combined with the dr althea moisturizer (also on this list) - a DREAM. i use her every other nigh...
Topicals Faded Brightening and Clearing Serum (UNSCENTED)
spot treatments💉
sulfur is the real deal when it comes to spot treatments, and The Ordinary is the real deal when it comes to cheap + effective. it comes out as a powder and turns into a cream. you don’t need a lot so it lasts forever! this stuff calms down cystic, u...
The Ordinary Sulfur 10% Powder-to-Cream Concentrate Acne Spot Treatment
me and salicylic acid go way back, and Origins is an OG in the skincare game. their stuff is a little pricier but this product is affordable and does the job so i keep repurchasing!
Origins Super Spot Remover with Salicylic Acid
you know the drill: the uglier the packaging, the more i trust it. this is the type of product your grandmother pulls out and says “trust me” LOL but it’s a budget-friendly product and it does its thing!
Grisi Sulfur Acne Treatment Ointment
moisturizers🧴
dark spots? sorry don’t know her!!! this face cream is sooo moisturizing but doesn’t cause closed comedones which (for me) is hard to find. i use this most when my skin is a irritated, or when i’m at the tail-end of a breakout and trying to prevent P...
Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream
she’s cheap, she’s fragrance free, and she works!!!!
when i was really struggling with my skin, i got stuck in a loop of buying the most expensive product, irritating my skin, being sad that it didn’t work for me, buying another expensive product t...
Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion for Normal to Dry Skin
SPF🌞
dr. jart can do no wrong and the stick is soooo convenient for reapplication. i literally never reapplied sunscreen (i know, so bad) until i discovered this SPF stick!!
pro tip: i carry alcohol wipes to wipe off the first layer of product before re...
Dr. Jart Every Sun Day Invisible Korean Sunscreen Stick
this SPF changed the game. if i’m being honest i never wore sunscreen until i found this product cuz i couldn’t handle the breakouts. never had that issue with this product and for that reason, i will request to be buried with a bottle of it
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Hyalu-Cica Water-Fit Sun Serum

iron deficient girlies rise UP! i definitely stay on top of my supplements now but i still get super dark circles under eyes whenever my iron drops (typically around my period, but it’s also genetic) - this eye cream truly makes a difference and i al...
The Inkey List Caffeine De-puffing + Dark Circle Eye Cream
this one’s more of a “treat yourself” product because it’s $22CAD for one mask, but i’m telling you, it makes my face feel like i was born yesterday and the glow is unbeatable. i always find myself picking one up before an event or date night.
Dr. Jart Cryo Rubber Face Mask with Hyaluronic Acid
