AM
The safest cleanser I've ever used, completely fragrance-free and won't strip your skin. A must if ur face tends to sting with other cleansers.
Vanicream™ Gentle Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin
Great for a light double cleanse or a quick refresh when your skin is acting up. No rinsing needed, gentle enough for skin that flares easily
Toleriane Micellar Water
My go-to brightening active for sensitive skin. Unlike vitamin C, which can trigger redness, azelaic acid is calmer but still effective at fading dark spots
Paula's Choice BOOST 10% Azelaic Acid Gel
Simple but reliable. One of the most dermatologist-recommended options for sensitive skin. Lightweight, non-greasy, locks in hydration
Daily Moisturizing Lotion
Non-negotiable product. Brightening serums are pointless without sunscreen. Mineral-based and formulated with niacinamide, so it's a double win for sensitive skin
UV Clear SPF 46 Sunscreen for Acne-Prone Skin
PM
Beginner-friendly concentration, won't trigger the harsh purging some other actives cause.
Skincare Products
This niacinamide and ceramide combo brightens while reinforcing your skin barrier, important for sensitive skin types.
Face Moisturizers
A lifesaver when skin feels extra dry or is going through a flare-up. Rich but still non-comedogenic.
Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration
The eye area is often overlooked, but it's where dullness/darkness shows first. Gentle enough for both AM and PM use
Eye Repair Cream - CeraVe
Use this product for repeating step. If your skin feels dry at night, apply a thicker layer here before bed
