Skincare for dry, sensitive skin
17
items I have extremely dry, sensitive skin. I put what I use (in order) for both my morning and night routine. This has been what's working for me after years of trying different products! If you have similar skin to me and still have a hard time, try some...

Morning Routine
I listed the order I do for my morning skin-care routine + the items that make it easier. I like to keep it simple!
1. Use this before you wash you face (morning and/or night). I replaced my gua sha jade rollers and oils for this. It feels great, you can apply more pressure, and it helps with lymphatic drainage.
Lymphatic Contour Face Brush
2. Put these on my wrists before washing my face! These were a gamechanger. I don't have water dripping down my arms and spilling on my clothes or counter anymore! Been using this for years now.
Wrist Bands for Washing Face
3. The only cleanser that doesn't irritate or dry out my skin. I use it to wash my face morning and night.
Cetaphil: Gentle Skin Cleanser - Face & Body Cleaner
4. I spritz my face with my 6.0 Beauty Water after I pat dry my face after washing. (For those who think that's weird… my face is dripping wet, we pat dry, and spritz to control the amount of water on there). Thanks, judgers.
Kitsch Continuous Spray Bottle for Hair 150ml
5. I put a few drops of this immediately after I spritz my face, to lock in the moisture for all this dryness.
The Ordinary - Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5
6. Seal my face off with this. My skin reacts better to thicker lotions than thinner ones. And it lasts my a long time.
CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for Dry Skin
Night Routine
I listed the order I do for my night skin-care routine. (6 is what I do most nights. 7 and 8 are alternate ones I try to do once/week after step 5. **I DON'T DO 6-8 ALL IN ONE NIGHT! It's either: 6 or 7 or 8.**). These are what I believe really helps improve my skin!
1. My skin is too sensitive for makeup removing wipes. You can wipe your face hard with these, and it's gentle on the skin. Love that it's washable, so it saves me money too!
ULTA Beauty Collection - Makeup Removing Towels
2. I usually only do it once a day, so if I didn't do it in the morning, I try to do it at night. But do it before you wash or wet your face.
Lymphatic Contour Face Brush
3. Use this prior to washing your face to prevent the water dripping down those arms and all over your counter!
Wrist Bands for Washing Face
4. Wash your face with this. The foam one doesn't work for my skin, but this one has worked well for me for years.
Cetaphil - Gentle Skin Cleanser
5. I spritz my face with my 6.0 Beauty Water after I pat dry my face after washing. (For those who think that's weird… my face is dripping wet, we pat dry, and spritz to control the amount of water on there). Thanks, judgers.
Kitsch Continuous Spray Bottle - Fine Mist Mister
6a. I use these to scoop out the tallow/honey balm to place on my face to not contaminate the jar. Lasts a while too.
Mini Skin Care Spatula (2.5", 100 Pack)
6b. This has been great. I used to use a tallow, and it helped me skin a lot. I'm happy I found a trusted one to use again! Really keeps it hyrdrated, smooth, and almost a glass-skin look.
Tallow & Honey Balm
7a. ONCE A WEEK, instead of putting on the tallow and honey balm, I'll do this instead. Basically a continuation of what I do in the morning with an extra product at the end.
Put a few drops of this immediately after spritzing the 6.0 water (or toner of your choice) and rub into face. This helps lock more moisture to your face.

Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides)
7b. Add about the same amount or a little less of this than you would in the morning.
CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for Dry Skin
7c. I'll add 1-2 small squeezes of this to seal in all the moisture and let it soak in overnight. A little goes a long way with this one. It also gives you that glass skin look. I've been using this for the past 2 years and love it.
IUNIK Propolis Vitamin Glow Sleeping Mask
8. I like to use this 1-2x week. (Honestly, sometimes I only use it every 2 weeks or once a month if I'm running low.) THIS MASK IS THE BEST. THE HYPE IS REAL. I love touching my face after I take the mask off. It's giving SMOOTH; it's giving HYDRATE...
