Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser Wash
Excellent for melting away makeup and SPF while heavily nurturing the skin barrier, very hydrating

The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution
this whole lineup is really good but i love the spot treatment. its drys really quickly and actaullu reduces the spot in like 24hrs
NIVEA Derma Skin Clear Leave-On Night Exfoliator
i use this every other night along with my retinal for maximum results, its a little sticky and have to build tolerance

This milky toner gives me that glass skin for a fraction of the price ( of the viral glazing milk). Very hydrating throughout the day and gives a nice glow under makeup aswell. No irritations either. Would definitely recommend if you love that glowy ...
BYOMA Hydrating Milky Toner
it semlls devine and its a really good everyday toner that hydrates and brightens the skin, i saw a big differance around my mouth area

Beauty Of Joseon Glow Deep Serum Rice + Alpha-Arbutin
Have used these products as part of skin care routine for some time now. They really do help keep skin healthy. Have found it does cause piling when applying makeup over top and that’s even with moisturiser so I adjust usage to prevent this happening
The Ordinary The Skin Support Set
shes cheap but powerful! super gental for everyday use and didnt burn my skin as someone with sensitive skin!
Superdrug Skin Vitamin C Serum 50ml
another solid staple in my routine, this is on the stronger side but you can start with the low 0.3% and work your way up. the best budget retinol on the market
The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane Serum
SUNSCREEN
one of the best spf on the market that actually works! great for face and body
