Makes my skin feel amazing
medicube Collagen Jelly Cream
I start my morning with this — it cleans without stripping my skin, so everything I put on after goes on better.
Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser
I twist one capsule open after cleansing — it wakes my skin up and gives me a brighter, firmer-looking start to the day.
Borghese Power-C Firming and Brightening Face Serum Capsules
This is my everyday moisturizer — I smooth it on after my serum, and it leaves my skin soft with SPF already in it, so I never skip that step.

I dot this on after moisturizer for a soft glow — it makes me look awake even on a no-makeup morning.

I finish with one last spritz — it is the scent I reach for when I want to feel put together all day.

Brightens everything up without settling into lines

goop Colorblur Glow Balm in Velveteen
I smooth this on right after cleansing — it feels light and milky and leaves my skin soft and ready for the rest of my routine.

This is the rich, cozy moisturizer I reach for on dry mornings — it sinks in nicely and keeps my skin comfortable all day.
Honey Halo Hydrating Ceramide Face Moisturizer
A tiny dab under my eyes in the morning makes me look rested, even on early days. It blends in so easily.

This gives me light coverage and sun protection in one step — my quick morning base when I want to look polished without a full face of makeup.

A little goes a long way — I use it where I need it in the morning and it stays put through the day.
Tarte Shape Tape Concealer
On lazy mornings I use this on a cotton pad to refresh my skin before the rest of my routine — gentle and quick.
