Cleansers
I love everything about this cleanser- it feels so luxurious, it smells great, it's so gentle, and leaves me feeling so fresh and clean.
Sulwhasoo: Gentle Cleansing Foam
I once got this is a sample and had to buy the full size asap. It actually cleanses everything and doesn't leave my skin feeling irritated or stripped in any way.
Kiehl's: Ultra Facial Barrier-Hydrating Cleanser
The Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser has been in my life for nearly 8 years and I will repurchase it again and again. It's so soothing and moisturizing, and leaves my skin feeling so soft and clean.
Glossier: Milky Jelly Cleanser
One of my favorite affordable cleansers of all time. It's a great everyday product, is consistent, and doesn't dry out my skin.
CeraVe: Hydrating Face Wash with Hyaluronic Acid and Glycerin for Normal to Dry Skin
Prep + Serums
I firmly believe that all the hype about Rhode is absolutely warranted. Their skincare has never failed me and I will recommend this set over and over again. It includes:
- Pineapple Refresh Cleanser
- Glazing Milk
- Peptide Glazing Fluid
- Barrier Restore Cream
- Pineapple Refresh Cleanser
- Glazing Milk
- Peptide Glazing Fluid
- Barrier Restore Cream
Rhode: The Rhode Kit- 4 Daily Skin Essentials
If you're going to only buy one Rhode skincare product, I'd recommend the Glazing Milk. I use this faithfully after cleansing and it's so milky and soothing, and is good prep for makeup. I've also mixed this with my foundation sometimes, and girl, yo...
RHODE Beauty: Glazing Milk
I use this for bouts of redness that I may get or if I break out, and it's always done well by me. It's soothed my skin and lessened any irritation.
Tower 28: SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with Hypochlorous Acid
This toner really does everything when it comes to clearing my skin- it's helped with texture, acne, blackheads, and any redness that I may have. It's lightweight, absorbs pretty quickly, and is an essential purchase.
Paula's Choice: 2% BHA Exfoliating Toner for Clear Skin
This mist is everything! I use as a toner and sometimes throughout the day if I need a quick refresh. It's especially amazing if your skin is irritated- I've used it after a facial or dermaplaning and it's nourishing and leaves my skin dewy.
Aestura: ATOBARRIER365 Moisturizing Cream Mist
I just love how The Ordinary is so affordable, for such great quality. Their hyaluronic acid serum is no exception and helps my skin stay hydrated.
The Ordinary: Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Hydrating Serum
I started using this recently to help with dark spots that I get throughout the summer and it's really helped with brightening my skin and to even it out, all without making my skin dry. Definitely recommend!
Paula's Choice: C15 Vitamin C Super Booster
I use this as the first step of my skincare after cleansing, and I swear it helps all other products absorb so much better and gives this nice, hydrating glow.
The Ordinary: Multi-Active Delivery Essence for Hydration
Moisturizers
Like the name suggests, this moisturizer literally feels like a cloud. It's lightweight, super hydrating, and feels really great on the skin.
Summer Fridays: Cloud Dew Gel Cream Moisturizer
I feel like this is a solid alternative to the Summer Friday's Cloud Moisturizer, so I always have this on hand. It has hyaluronic acid, absorbs quickly, and is so hydrating.
Neutrogena: Hydro Boost Water Cream
I hate that I love this moisturizer so much. The price tag is not my favorite, but if you're splurging, I highly recommend the dewy cream moisturizer and especially in the winter. It leaves my skin so soft, makes me literally glow, and luckily, a lit...
Tatcha: Dewy Skin Cream Moisturizer
Sunscreen
Love this K-Beauty brand and especially their sunscreen. It feels almost like skincare as opposed to sunscreen with how weightless it is.
Then I Met You: Essence Light Sunscreen Broad Spectrum Moisturizer SPF 50 PA +++
Supergoop has always been my go-to for sunscreen. There's no white-cast, it's blurring, and works great as a primer too!
Supergoop: Unseen Sunscreen Invisible Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA +++
Face Masks
As the name suggests, this literally feels like my face is drenched in water, it's so hydrating. I use this a couple times a week, and it is a game changer.
Peter Roth: Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Mask
I'm not kidding when I say this mask makes me feel like a new person and like I have glass skin. I don't know what magic powers this has, but it's amazing.
Dr. Jart: Ceramidin™ Skin Barrier Moisturizing Mask
This trio includes a previous recommendation of the water drench mask (which you should definitely get), but if you want to try a few different kinds of Peter Roth products, you should also try this mask sampler! It comes with the water drench mask t...
Peter Roth: Mask Blast-Off 3-Piece Mask Kit
