Cleansers
For October, my focus is on balancing my skin and preparing with lots of hydration for the winter months. I’m reaching more for gentle cleansers, and using oil cleansing to remove blackheads and makeup/sunscreen residue
Light, non-stripping everyday foam cleansing at its best. I reach for this one most after doing an oil cleanse, it leaves my skin feeling deeply clean without the dryness.
ILLIYOON Gentle Foaming Deep Facial Cleanser 250ml | OLIVE YOUNG Global
This is my favorite oil cleanser right now, it disintegrates even my toughest makeup but doesn’t break me out like some heavier oils.

This eye makeup remover works better than the luxury ones that are 5x the price. Gentle, doesn’t sting my eyes but gets off stubborn mascara and eye shadows.

Moisturizers
Moisturizers are my critical step for October, I need all the hydration this fall to prepare my skin for when we turn on the indoor heating. You won’t catch me this winter without my dewy glow!
This is one of my staple products, I reach for it all the time. Hydrating enough for my dry skin, but with ingredients that help heal blemishes and plumps fine lines. Easily one of the best no-frills, all results creams you can find.

New addition to my October routine and I am LOVING this for barrier support. This is a heavier cream, which makes it perfect for fall/winter skincare.

Masks
I’ve been leaning more towards gel type sheet masks, I really thought they were a fad at first, but I think they are here to stay & that’s great for dry skin like mine! I do have a few other style masks that I use, however clay masks tend to be m...
These are so gentle, but hydrate my skin so quickly!
Torriden Dive-In Low Molecule Hyaluronic Acid Mask Sheet 10ea | OLIVE YOUNG Global
This mask is so good for aging skin! It’s incredibly popular in Korea but somehow hasn’t gone viral in the United States yet. Someone explain it to me, because this one is holy grail status
BIOHEAL BOH Probioderm Collagen Remodeling Serum Gel Mask Sheet 5+1ea Special Set | OLIVE YOUNG Global
At the first sign my skin is starting to break out, this is the mask I reach for. It takes the swelling out of acne spots QUICK. Perfect for those surprise stress breakouts!

Serums
If you see me hoarding serums this October cackling about how these are my magic potions, no you didn’t.
This is a next generation serum that uses both NAD & antioxidants to give skin a more youthful look. Fine lines don’t stand a chance against this formula
numbuzin No. 9 NAD Bio Lifting-sil Essence 50ml | OLIVE YOUNG Global
I’m not reaching for this one everyday, but this is the one I pick when I’m getting a breakout. It’s lightweight, but keeps me glowy while helping my blemishes calm down.
ISOI Brightening Serum 40ml Set (+20ml+Eye&Wrinkle Patch 1 Set) | OLIVE YOUNG Global
I love a spray serum, it’s so convenient to use when I’m in a rush & this one is like a glow cheat code in a bottle. I reach for this all year long, but I go through a bottle a month (at least) during the cold months. Works beautifully over makeu...
