Moisturizers and Balms
I use this on nights I don’t use tretinoin to help soothe my skin barrier. Love the gentle ingredients.
Prequel Barrier Therapy Rich Skin Protectant Cream - 10 fl oz
Super thick and moisturizing. I only use this on no makeup days because it’s so heavy but my dry skin loves it.
1.7 oz Ultra Facial Cream Sunscreen SPF 30 - Kiehl's Since 1851 | Ulta Beauty
I am obsessed with this balm! I usually use this more like skin care in my evening routine, but do on occasion use as a primer under makeup.
Yummy Skin Moisture Repair Balm Serum with Hyaluronic Acid and Squalane - Danessa Myricks Beauty | S
SPF is a must, even in the colder months. I love how lightweight this formula is and how it layers so well under makeup.
Ultra-Lightweight Face Fluid SPF 50 - BYOMA | Ulta Beauty
My fall and winter evening moisturizer. Thick, hydrating, and makes my skin feel amazing.
4.0 oz Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration Moisturizer - First Aid Beauty | Ulta Beauty
An essential step in my evening routine, especially since I started using tretinoin.
1.3 oz Cicaplast Balm B5 Soothing Therapeutic Multi Purpose Cream - La Roche-Posay | Ulta Beauty
Toners and Serums
Of all the niacinamide serums and toners I have tried (and I have tried a LOT) this is the one I keep coming back to.
1.0 oz Niacinamide Brightening Toner - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
I added this into my morning routine recently and love the extra glow I see already! Skin 1004 has amazing, affordable products.
Azelaic Acid 10 Ampoule
Helps calm my redness and I notice the difference when I’m not using it consistently. One of my favorite skin care brands at the moment!
Centella Ampoule
On the pricer side of milky toners but worth it! Hydrating and super lightweight, one of my favorite milky toners for dry weather because it layers so well with other moisturizing products.
Cream Skin Milky Toner with Ceramides & Peptides for Nourishing Hydration - LANEIGE
My favorite affordable Hyaluronic acid serum! I have repurchased many times and use when my skin needs an extra boost of moisture.
1.0 oz Hyaluronic Acid Serum - Good Molecules | Ulta Beauty
Hydrating and lightweight, this is my go-to serum for my morning and evening skincare routine during the drier months. My skin loves this formula!
Hydrating Electrolyte Rescue Serum - cocokind | Ulta Beauty
Mists and Masks
So soothing and calming, a nice extra step that makes my skin happy.
4.0 oz Calming Magnesium Facial Mist - cocokind | Ulta Beauty
Such a great sheet mask! Peach & Lily never misses. I don’t wear this overnight like a lot of people do. I find that 30-40 mins before bed is more than enough time for my skin to get the benefits.
7 ct Glass Skin Ginseng Collagen Mask - PEACH & LILY | Ulta Beauty
So refreshing! Perfect for a moisture boost mid-day when I need it.
3.38 oz PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Capsule Mist - ANUA | Ulta Beauty
My under eye area loves how soothing and hydrating these masks are. The hydration boost feels amazing on tired eyes.
The Peptide Collagen Hydrogel Eye Patch - COSRX | Ulta Beauty
My parched skin loves this mist, especially during the drier fall and winter months.
The Ceramide Skin Barrier Moisturizing Mist - COSRX | Ulta Beauty
This has been super helpful in my tretinoin journey. On tret nights I will use this mask first and it has helped ease the sting and irritation. The glow from this mask is insane. One of my dry skin faves.
Bio-Collagen Radiance Facial Mask - BYOMA | Ulta Beauty
