Moisturizer

These are my favorite moisturizers that stop oil production for combo, oily, acne prone skin. Gel/jelly is the way to go, but one of my recommendations will surprise you! I use these in the daytime too, so i can confirm they are excellent for makeup.

Toner

These toners will brighten dull skin and acne dark spots. They also provide chemical exfoliation which smooths and fights breakouts. Chemical exfoliation is much more effective than physicial.

I apply exfoliating toners with super thin cotton squares. This allows you to get up into those pores. Everything else I apply directly with my clean hands.

Cleanser

On days that you wear sunscreen and/or makeup, I highly recommend double-cleansing. This is my favorite double-cleanser and face wash duo.

 
Amanda Vitale profile picture
This is a daily face wash that gently foams and does the job to wash away impurities. The formula fights acne without burning or drying out the skin.

Oil

These are lightweight oils that bring deep hydration to combo skin, and fight acne. They will not clog pores or create more oil production.

This is a lightweight oil that kicks acne's butt! I apply it all over, but it also works as a spot treatment. Try a dab on an acne spot that is sore and see what happens. I love that it asborbs fast so I don't feel greasy.

Eyes & Lip

I end my night time skincare routine with my lips and lashes. I exfoliate if needed, then oil up. I also do maintenance with my eyelash serum.

Throw all of your lip balms and masks away! This is the only lip treatment that you need, period. I slap this on before bed and it makes my lips feel baby soft. I have never tried anything like it. I rarely exfoliate now.

On those rare occasions that you do need to exfoliate, because you use the wet n wild lip oil now ;) go for this. It is gentle yet effective. The formula is soft and sort of melts away as you exfoliate. The flavors are delicious!

I've been using this lash serum for years. My lashes are longer and I can see the difference in old photos. Every mascara looks so good on me now! It's worth every penny. It doesn't leave a dark band on my eyelid.

Everything Else!

I do want to talk about what I do for my hands… it's still skincare just not for the face. I'm also sharing my facial steamer.

 
Amanda Vitale profile picture
This is the facial steamer that I use twice per week. Steaming opens your pores to make your skin more receptive to asborbing products. This makes products work so much better! I love using it along with acne-fighting products.
