items my current AM/PM skincare routine!! i have combo, sensitive, acne-prone skin (triple homicide) and these are the products i've been loving recently :)
I use this as the first step in my PM routine to remove SPF and makeup via double cleansing. i then follow with a gentle foaming cleanser. since switching to this method, i've noticed my blackheads have been disapearing.
The INKEY List | Oat Cleansing Balm
doesn't strip the skin (even when double cleansing). would recommend if you have sensitive, acne-prone skin and/or rosacea/redness.
KORRES | Greek Yoghurt Foaming Cream Cleanser
i use this every other night when i have active breakouts (like i do right now), alternating between this and TA's glycolic acid toner so as not to strip the skin. pro tip: use under a pimple patch to get allllll that gunk out.
The INKEY List | Beta Hydroxy Acid Serum
been using these for years! much better (and cheaper) at getting the gunk out than mighty patches. these stay stocked in my household.
COSRX Acne Pimple Master Patches (24pcs)
helps with dark spots and uneven skin. what i like best about this product is that it has SO MANY other uses. deodorant? check. oily scalp? KP or strawberry skin? The Ordinary's got you covered!
The Ordinary | Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating and Brightening Daily Toner
i previously used The Ordinary's hyaluronic acid serum, but i found that The Inkey List's formulation sinks into the skin better and doesnt leave that sticky skincare film you sometimes get.
The INKEY List | Hyaluronic Acid Serum
if you struggle with an oily t-zone and hyperpigmentation like me, this is for you! sits nicely under SPF and makeup.
The INKEY List | Niacinamide Oil Control Serum
water-based gel moisturizers (like this one) are great for combo/oily skin! this is a great option for someone on a budget. keeps my skin moisturized without the greasiness.
The INKEY List | Omega Water Cream
i find that this sunscreen sits so nicely under makeup—no piling here, unlike my supergoop products—particularly if you love a dewy finish. this sweat and waterproof formula doubles as a face and body sunscreen. for my fellow oily/combo skin girlies ...
La Roche-Posay | Anthelios Ultra-Light Invisible Fluid SPF50+
get compliments on these all the time! love em for daytime use. even “invisible” pimple patches are visible, so you might as well invest in some cute ones :3
