My skin is by far the best it has ever been in my life! I honestly can’t believe it took me until quarantine to start focusing on my skincare routine. I’ve been doing a 3 minute skincare regimen in the morning and again at night and my skin is, dare I say, almost flawless.
I shared a quick video of my morning skincare routine on IGTV on my Instagram page, but he’s a roundup of everything I use and why I love each product.
The very first thing I do in the morning is wipe my face with Bliss What A Melon Replenishing Watermelon Toner and a round cotton pad. I found the Bliss products many years ago at a W Hotel (Bliss is the spa at the W Hotels) and fell in love with their line. I’ve been buying them ever since. This is a pretty big bottle that lasts a really long time and it’s only $10.
Next up is my new eye serum that I am loving, Kiehl’s Powerful-Strength Dark Circle Reducing Vitamin C Eye Serum. My friend Kelly Saks recommended it recently, so I decided to give it a try and she was so right. It has reduced my dark circles and it feels amazing on your face, so silky going on. I use the tiniest bit, so it should last me a really long time.
Then onto my moisturizer that I have been using day and night for years, Bobbi Brown Hydrating Face Cream. I love the Bobbi Brown line. It has been my go to makeup line since high school. I can’t say enough good things about their line. I’ve never had a breakout using any of their products and many other makeup brands make me breakout.
After that is my sunscreen. I put on sunscreen every single day whether I am going out or not. Ask any dermatologist the most important thing to put on your face and they’ll tell you sunscreen. I’ve been using the Supergoop! Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40 for a couple months and I love it. Hands down my favorite face sunscreen I’ve used, and I’ve tried a lot of them. I just use a pea size amount to cover my face. It feels like silk on your face…. I promise!
Taking care of your lips is also so important. I’ve been using the Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1 morning and night and my lips are super soft and never chapped anymore.
I had always been skeptical of lash serums, but I finally decided to try one about a month ago. I tried Lavish Lash Eyelash Growth Enhancer & Brow Serum and I’ve seen a significant change. It’s just a quick brush stroke on the lash line morning and night and my lashes have definitely grown quite a bit. I just started putting it on my eyebrows at night to see if they fill in since they’re kind of thin to begin with. I’ll keep you updated.
One of the more recent products I’ve been using and have completely fallen in love with is the Tula Skincare Rose Glow & Get It Cooling & Brightening Eye Balm. It’s a stick that you can put on under or over your makeup, as many times a day as you like, and it cools your eyes reducing bags and gives the most beautiful glowy rose color that covers your dark circles. Ever since I started using this I have no put on concealer unless I’m going somewhere and putting on real makeup. The old me wouldn’t have left the house without concealer because I always have dark circles. I can’t say enough good stuff about this product!
This isn’t skincare anymore, but it’s part of my morning routine somedays. If I’m in the mood for a glowy look then I just add a tiny pump of the Bobbi Brown Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm in Golden Glow and rub it into my skin. It gives the prettiest subtle glow without having to put on makeup. You already know I love the Bobbi Brown line…. this is just another one of their amazing products.
My last step and the only real makeup I put on most days is a little bit of mascara on the tips of my lashes. My lashes have gotten really long, but they’re blonde so you can’t tell without some mascara. I’ve been using the Lancome Hypnose Drama Instant Full Volume Mascara in Black for many years and I love it. It gives really dramatic full lashes if you put on a proper thick coat, but during the day I just do the tiniest bit on the tips of my lashes so you can see that they exist.
Finally, I don’t use this in the morning, but I wanted to share it with you guys because I love it so much…. the Bliss Fab Foaming Oil-Free Gel Cleanser. This is the actual product that I fell in love with at a W Hotel many years ago and it began my love for this line. It’s the only cleanser I ever use and your skin feels amazing and so fresh after. Target has the small bottle for $10, so I had to share it with you.
Please let me know if you try any of them. Would love to hear how it goes for you. I truly hope you love them as much as I do!
