Hello again,
Thanks for joining me. Today I will share my morning skincare routine. I have come to enjoy my morning routine as it eases me into my day. Nothing feels better than starting off the day with a fresh, clean face.
So pin your hair back and let's go!
This is the face wash I am currently using. I really enjoy it. It is a gel formula with tiny beads that burst as you wash. It has a very fresh scent which really does invigorate my senses in the morning. This is the Target version of Clean & Clear Morning Burst. Washing your face is so important...Especially in the morning. Your skin cleanses itself while you sleep. Which means it secretes oil, dirt, makeup, bacteria, and other impurities. Gross, right? One if not all of those are the reasons why you should wash your face in the a.m. On a brighter note, clean skin creates a fresh surface for your makeup.
Quick Tip: When drying your face use gentle blotting/dabbing motions. You don't want to pull or tug on your skin.
Now for another important step, Moisturizer. This one is great to wear under makeup. I'm almost out of it and I definitely plan on repurchasing it. It's very light weight and doesn't make my combination skin oily throughout the day. I can't say enough about moisturizing. If you have oily, combination, or dry skin. Moisturize! It's one of the easiest ways to prevent premature signs of aging. Dry skin looses it's elasticity. Which in turn, causes wrinkles. Think of moisturizing as giving your skin a drink of water. Drink up, baby!
Quick Tip: Don't neglect the neck. Always apply moisturizer to your neck. Unless you want to look like Mr. Turkey.
For the eye area I try to stay away from products that are too heavy during the day. These are two products that work well with under eye concealer. I was blessed with dark under eye circles so concealer is a must for me. They are both very lightweight and soothing to the skin around the eyes. My eyes tend to be a bit puffy in the morning and these also help with that. The roll on has a metal ball which is perfect for puffy eyes.
Quick Tip: Apply your eye product out to your temples to help fight crows feet.
Occasionally my skin feels very dry and tight after I wash it. I'll spritz my face with Mario Badescu Facial Spray and it almost instantly feels better. Then I will apply my moisturizer and continue with the rest of my routine.
Quick Tip: Use this spray to set your makeup. I love when products can be used multiple ways.
I allow these products a few minutes to work into my skin before I apply my makeup. That completes my morning skincare routine. I hope you found this helpful. Please feel free to ask me any questions about any of the products or steps mentioned.
Until next time...
Xoxo,
Adela
