My favorite skincare addition. Holds in moisture at the end of skincare for the night as last step, and helps to heal and even skin tone. Full of antioxidants, the vital C line is my favorite Image line.
VITAL C hydrating facial oil
Gentle eye cream for brightening the under eye. Perfect for morning routines to wake up the skin.
Caffeine Eye Cream for Under Eye Bags & Dark Circles $12 | The INKEY List USA
Best overall facial serum ever!!! Has niacinamides that help even skin tone and strengthen skin barrier. If you want a simple routine this is the perfect serum to improve skin overall. Pricier but soooo worth it.
Fresh Tea Elixir Skin Resilience Serum
Sunscreen
You NEED sunscreen. 🧴 EVERYONE!! I tell every client if I could have one skincare product only for the rest of my life… i’d chose a sunscreen. These are the best sunscreens for all skin types and skintones.
Best sunscreen I have ever used. No white cast. Thin formula. And ultimate sun protection. Reapply every hour for full sun protection. Works amazing under makeup.
Beauty of Joseon Sunscreens
Great everyday SPF. Lightweight & minimal white cast. Have to work in a little bit. Great moisturizer too. If really dry you can totally wear another cream underneath. But if more oily or normal skintype, this can be great without another cream o...
AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30
Hyperpigmentation
Favorite product for hyperpigmentation. Also will help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. I use as a facial toner a few times a week, as well as on underarms for darkness. Works wonders and is affordable.

Perfect for face exfoliation. Also helps brighten and even skin tone! Use every other day or 2/3 times a week for real results

I LOVE THIS SM. I don’t always like Clinique. However… this is the best moisturizer for combo to oily skin. Lightweight, and holds in so much hydration. And works great under makeup. Pricy… but 100% worth it. I’d just splurge for the big one. Because...
Moisture Surge™ 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator
Basic Skincare Routine
Best products to get you introduced into skincare. If I were to only recommend a handful of items to start with… these would be my ABSOLUTE necessities. 💅🏼✨
Perfect addition to a skincare routine to add hydration. Everyone needs hydration. But if you struggle with dry, flakey skin: I guarantee you’ll see results after one use.
Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides)
Best lip treatment ever. I use daily as a lip balm. But perfect staple for after a facial, put on before bed, or daily use. Has a pleasant smell and will leave your lips soft and hydrated. I alwaysss have clients ask for this. If I have one product I...
