Face Cleansing

This is one of the few face cleansers I have tried that doesn’t break me out. It also doesn’t leave my skin feeling terribly tight and dry like other cleansers I have tried.
Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Facial Cleanser

I use this after a cleansing balm to make sure all of my makeup is off before washing my face! It is gentle for sensitive skin but does a really good job of taking the day off of your face.
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water Skin Care Products

I love using this to take my makeup off! I noticed using makeup removal wipes alone doesn’t get all of the makeup off, but using this in conjunction with wipes helps ensure every speck of makeup is off of your face!
Take The Day Off™ Cleansing Balm - Makeup Removers

This is also a great cleanser for sensitive skin! It leaves the skin feeling clean and refreshed. It doesn’t leave my skin feeling overly tight and dehydrated like some other cleansers, it doesn’t break me out and is a great dupe for the other face w...

Moisturizers

I can instantly feel the difference in my skin when I use this. I have very sensitive skin, and this doesn’t break me out at all! It doesn’t leave a ‘mask-like’ effect like some other moisturizers and doesn’t leave any oiliness or residue.

It’s not too thick but it moisturizes well and doesn’t cause me to break out!

Sunscreen

I love this sunscreen! I have very pale, sensitive skin. This does not leave residue or have my face feeling oily like other sunscreens. It also does not clog my pores or make me break out!

Acne Treatments

I love this to speed up the healing process of a current breakout and prevent new ones!
Effaclar Duo | Acne Spot Treatment
 
Summer Stephenson profile picture
This is a really good spot treatment for blemishes! It dries out the pimple and helps it heal much faster. It is a life saver when you have an important event coming up and a pesky zit pops up in the middle of your face!
Drying Lotion - On-The-Spot Solution for Blemishes
 
Summer Stephenson profile picture
This is the new reformulation of the other acne treatment product in my list. It works just as well, I don’t notice many differences but the ingredient list has changed!
Effaclar Duo+M Multi-Target Acne Treatment With 0.5% Salicylic Acid

Brightening/Tone Evening

I use this very sparingly, maybe once every few weeks. You may be able to work your way up to using it more frequently, but my skin is too sensitive to use it more than once or twice a month! I definitely feel and see a difference in the following da...
AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution

This is a great product for evening out your skin tone by reducing congestion in the face. I noticed a lot less sebum build up while using this product. This is great value for a cost effective product, and it is lightweight on the skin.
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

Lip Moisturizing

This keeps my lips moisturized all night! It’s not too thick, some products make it feel like you can’t talk right because they’re so thick! This one is perfect for hydration, I like using it during the day as well!
