Hi Gorgeous!!! Thanks so much for stopping by to see my nightly beauty routine. I commonly get asked about my makeup and skincare so I figured I would give you guys a fully updated blog post on what I am using every single night – and even my masks I am doing every week!
I take these probiotics every single night. I have been taking them for about 6 months now, consistently for about 3. I started taking them and after a few weeks immediately noticed a difference in not only my skin but also the way I felt and my gut health. I knew I was feeling better but I honestly didn’t realize how much better I was feeling until I stopped taking them. With just one month off I noticed a few little breakouts and I just didn’t feel as good – in general. These probiotics help with digestion and skin health due to better digestion. They also help your skin retain moisture and contain antioxidants!
I love this face wash! I used to only use it in the morning to help me wake up but I have recently started using it at night too! Just FYI – I wash my face twice at night. Once to get off my makeup and then a second time to really cleanse my skin. I also sometimes use the Clarisonic (mine is white, but this is the one I use) but I have to be honest – I get lazy and do not use it every single night. I like this one because it gives me a good clean feeling without feeling dried out or like my skin is stiff afterwards.
I SWEAR by this thing! Okay, so I got this one because it came with both attachments. One for the whole face and one for around your mouth (smaller areas). I also use it around my nose! The also have this one that is a little more affordable, and yes – you probably could make it work for your entire face and use it around your mouth too – it is only intended for larger surfaces. They all have the LED light and the vibrating sensation to help enhance results. It says to use this 2-3 times a week but I have to be honest – I probably use mine 5 times a week. I just LOVE the way it makes my skin feel. I can feel my skin firming up and can tell a big difference when I apply my products afterwards. It literally makes it so I can feel the products going into my skin!
I had read so many great reviews about using a vitamin c serum daily, but until about 4 months ago – I just had never tried it. Vitamin C improves texture and radiance but I liked this one because it feels so creamy without being oily. I can put it on at night and I actually put it on in the morning too under my makeup on days I wear makeup. This one has 12.5% Vitamin C in it – which is a lot of Vitamin C!! Some are double or triple the price and only have up to 20%!!
I started using this eye cream mostly because of the applicator, you will see when you get it. It feels so good under your eyes. After a few weeks of using it I have noticed my bags under my eyes seem less noticeable (they weren’t terrible before but I can see a difference). As well as the little tiny fine lines under and around my eyes are also less noticeable!! I put this on every night!!
Dry Skin Moisturizer (winter):
I LOVE this moisturizer but it can sometimes be too heavy for summer months when my skin tends to be a little oilier than normal anyways. It is made to be used on oily skin as well – I just prefer something lighter sometimes. I tend to pull this one out in winter months or if I am having a dry spell. If you have dry skin, you will love this! It contains anti-aging peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C and licorice root. And, in case you care – it is also paraben and sulfate free!
Oily Skin Moisturizer (summer):
This product is brand new, but I instantly fell in love with it. It actually is just being launched to the public TODAY!!! I started using it about 2 weeks ago and have used it every single day since! It is like giving your face a glass of water!
This stuff is like a luxurious body butter made for your face and neck. For years I can remember my grandmother telling me to treat my chest like I do my face. I have to admit that I do not always do that – I don’t protect it from the sun as much as I should and I don’t think to exfoliate it when I do my face but I will say – I am really good at moisturizing it and I am going to make it a goal to try to protect it from the sun better this summer. That being said- this face cream feels sooooo good on your chest and neck! You will feel your skin drinking it!
Every week, I put in my best effort to do 2 face masks a week. One for moisturizing and one for detoxing.
I tend to do this mask more towards the end of the week. I am not really sure why but I always just like my skin to feel moisturized and relaxed and ready for the weekend. Pretty sure it’s all mental. But, your skin instantly feels more hydrated and healthier once you apply this. Kind of think of it as a probiotic filled milk for your skin. It moisturizes and helps keep moisture in your skin. I promise, you will be addicted after the first time you use it! (Tip: I typically leave it on way longer than it says)
I have used this mask for two years now. I have several other detox masks that I really like but I always find myself going back to this one. I think because even tho this one hardens as it sits, it doesn’t make you feel like a cement statue. It has charcoal and silver in it which both act as different defenses against bacteria, clogged pores and breakouts.
