Glassy Skin Routine

Purple Star emoji 15 items
It happened. I’ve been influenced. I started following the Shelby Ann routine on tiktok with some ✨dupes✨ and I’m very happy with my skin now. My skin in my 30s is behaving much differently than my 20s, the added hydration has been a game changer. En...

THE exfoliation step. Gentle enough to use daily! I super appreciate that there are little tweezers attached to the lid so you can lift a pad without inadvertently touching multiple of them when you just need the one.

Thirst burst can be used as a serum, makeup primer, or mixed with foundation for a dewier look. I personally use this as a hydrating serum after toner, but before SPF and makeup. THIS is the product that gives the glassy appearance while staying a st...

Okay listen I’ve always been a pH, acne treatment toner user. I really truly thought I would hate the “milky” product but it’s really been a game changer in how my skin absorbs subsequent products. I expect this will be a daily component of my skinca...

I was an OG Curology girl and used to subscribe for their prescriptions. I am SO happy to see their products accessible in stores now. This is my all time favorite cleanser. It is so gentle and a great first step for skin prep.

Vitamin C. We love it. One of the only skin care ingredients that is truly evidence based with a lot of good science to back up its benefits. I’ve enjoyed this product for a long time. I know it’s typically used in the AM, but for me PM use has been ...

Even though my skin has been a little drier entering my 30s, it’s still a little acne prone. Heavier moisturizers always break me out, but this gel one goes on so smoothly and doesn’t pill under makeup. It’s been my go-to for several years, but I’ve ...

I used to use a different product that was just a caffeine serum, but I really love the vitamin C & caffeine combo under the eyes in the mornings. This is a little thicker so I’ve been doing Elf thirst burst first before, and it layers on nicely....

Obligatory add for if your skin is on the drier side. I said on my gel moisture rec that heavier moisturizers tend to break me out, but when I am very dry I’ll use this sparingly.

It took me TOO LONG to hop aboard the daily SPF train (I know I knowww). I love that the one I like is actually one of the most common, easy to find ones. Who knew that tried and true CeraVe would be the holy grail? Does fine with this routine, no pi...

My Curology cleanser is my every day, but I do keep the Pacifica glow baby cleanser in the shower for when my face is duller or I need to brighten after multiple days of heavier makeup wear. I really can’t say enough good things about the product lin...

Totally a preference thing, I don’t mind applying toner with my hands but can certainly be applied with a cotton round if preferred. I like these for micellar water too!

Remember to remove any prior makeup before starting your routine 🖤 For the glassy routine, I recommend either the brightening or hydrating micellar water options. The acne ones are great too but a different goal than this list :)

Make sure you tend to any acne prone areas quickly! If you’re going for dewy but have acne prone skin, having these on hand while your skin adjusts to having increased moisture is a huge help.

Should you find yourself in need of something to target acne while increasing moisturizing products, this formulation of azelaic acid long trusted by me. This layers very well with other products and I’ve never struggled with it pilling. I primarily ...
