Everyday Essentials
My everyday essentials that make my skin look and feel its best.
My face doesn’t feel clean without this. Day and night, oily skin approved, never stripped.
La Roche-Posay | Toleriane Purifying Foaming Facial Wash
The only face wash that keeps my pores completely unclogged. I went a few weeks without it, and my skin got so congested —never going back!
Neutrogena | Oil-Free Salicylic Acid Acne Fighting Face Wash
When all else fails, this bar always saves my skin. I usually use it at night if I’m not targeting dark marks.
Even Tone Cleansing Bar 3-in-1 Treatment - Urban Skin Rx | Ulta Beauty
When my acne is acting a fool, this is the cure. I typically use it at night and sometimes wear it as a mask for 20 minutes.
PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash Benzoyl Peroxide 10%
Brightens, balances, and keeps your skin in check. Personally my favorite of the entire line.
Niacinamide Brightening Toner - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
My holy grail for discoloration, but patience is key. Daily use is where the magic happens.
Discoloration Correcting Serum - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
New to my routine, but already watching post-inflammatory marks fade over time.
Even Tone Super Glow Serum with 10% L-Ascorbic Acid + Kojic Acid - Urban Skin Rx | Ulta Beauty
A wake-up call your eyes will actually enjoy.
Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
Not the OG I miss, but a solid lightweight win for oily skin.
Lightweight Daily Moisturizer - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
Facial Mask
Your skin, upgraded. Must-have masks for brightness, firmness, and a healthy glow.
Instantly brightens, hydrates, and firms with a cooling, rubber-like mask and a potent serum ampoule. Designed to refresh skin and reduce dark spots, leaving you camera-ready in just 20 minutes.
Cryo Rubber™ Brightening Mask With Niacinamide | Dr.Jart+ Skincare
Key word Refreshing!
BIODANCE Refreshing Sea Kelp Overnight Mask
This made “glass skin” my middle name.
Amazon | ISTON 4 Pack Collagen Face Mask
Everyday exfoliation without irritation.
Beauty of Joseon | Ground Rice and Honey Glow Mask
Patch Me Up!
patches that ACTUALLY make a difference
Hands down the best patches! I was able to heal stubborn cystic acne with these—so effective
PanOxyl | PM Overnight Spot Patches,
Surface pimples have nothing on these. Currently my favorite go-to patches. Invisible!
Pimple Patches - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
As someone with oily skin and constant cysts, these are lifesavers. They help bring spots up or down and are super easy to find.
Trying something new and so far, these haven’t disappointed. A great, affordable option for deep blemishes.
Peach Slices | Deep Blemish Microdarts
I get the hype! These actually work and you get a ton for your money.
Peach Slices Acne Spot Hydrocolloid Patches
More bang for you buck if your looking for Microdart patches
Rulvcian Microdart Acne Patches (18 Count)
Foreign Me
Foreign isn’t boring. All the products I recommend from overseas have different formulas and trust me it shows. They’re often a lot cheaper too. Remember when you travel, bring an empty suitcase!
P.S. For deeper exfoliation, the Black Rice Peeling Ampoule is also available! Both are low-irritation tested and safe for everyday use ✨
mixsoon | White Rice Peeling Ampoule
If you’re ever overseas (PARIS) just buy it there. The formula is different and it’s cheaper.
