Cleansers
These are the only cleansers I use and have stuck with for years
I use this every single day (at night) before i apply Tretinoin and La Roche Posay's Matte moisterizer
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Face Wash
I use this every day (morning)
Soy Ph-Balanced Hydrating Face Wash
My derm told me to get this for days i'm breaking out more than usual.
Effaclar Medicated Acne Face Wash
Moisturizers
I rotate through all these depending on how my skin is that day
I use this in the AM after I wash my face and I specifically use the matte finish moisturizer to help with my excess oiliness
Face Moisturizer (daytime)
I use this at night (you can use this during the day also) right before bead and after i apply tretinoin
Face Moisturizer (nightly)
I use this if my skin needs a little extra hydration and only at night because it can make me super oily during the day otherwise
Rose & Hyaluronic Acid Deep Hydration Moisturizer
I got a sample of this form my dermatologist and oh my god… my life is changed. This gives such deep hydration! I peel a lot from the tretinoin cream I use so this has been so helpful.
Toleriane Dermallergo Moisturizing Cream
This is a lighter feeling version of the face cresm they have! I got it when it first came out and its perfect in the summer.
Rose & Hyaluronic Acid Deep Hydration Emulsion
Serums
I LOVE a mandelic acid serum, its good for resurfacing, scarring and texture! Start off only using it a few times a week to avoid irritation then eventually every night also WEAR SUNSCREEN :)
Mandelic Serum 5%
While this is not a “Serum” it is a topical resurfacing treatment so I will add it here :) I use this every NIGHT (you will want to use this at night) and apply on a dry face. My dermatologist recommended 2-3 times a week until your skin is used to i...
Tretinoin 0.025 % Topical Cream - Uses, Side Effects, and ...
Now this is my GIRL. I used this every morning after I wash my face and it really helps with preventing small breakouts! Its super gentle however to avoid sensitivity start off only using this a few times a week
postbiotic acne serum
Essence Treatment
This is my holy grail instant hydration essence. Personally I put 2-3 drops in my hand then add a serum to it! I will forever re-purchase.
Kombucha Antioxidant Facial Treatment Essence
SUPER pricey but if you have extra spending money it's so good.
Girllll you already know about her, I have a bottle in every room, purse and car I have.
Aquaphor® Official Site - Skin Protection and Healing
I lovvvvveeeee this and use it honestly as a lip gloss mostly when i go out so my lips never dry out! Little bit of lip liner and this then i'm ready for the night
Lip Sleeping Mask Nourish & Hydrate
It's always good to have an SPF 30 lip balm!
PLAY Lip Balm SPF 30
Body Care
All my friends used this soap and I tried it in my friends shower, never looked back after that! I have multiple scents and the lavender is my favorite by far (don't get the tea tree one it smells like mold) but this on a loofah is *chefs kiss*
Lavender - Pure-Castile Liquid Soap
Let me hear it for the acne prone girlies once again! I CANNOT use scented, fun lotions on my body without having a rash/breakout but THIS lotion will have to be ripped from my cold dead hands. It has salicylic acid in it and will clear up any body b...
AmLactin®| Uncover Your True Skin
I love this company and this tattoo balm is the bomb. It really makes my tattoos POP when I use it! I recommend dry brushing you skin first then adding this to you tattoos, thank me later.
Mad Rabbit
I love this lotion for my tattoos! It's super lightweight and really makes my tattoos pop! I think its also available at walmart now as well
Daily Tattoo Lotion | Moisturizer for Your Ink
These are my favorite cotton squares, they don't leave a cotton on your face like the circle pads do to me every time.
Diane Cotton Squares – 100% Real Cotton, 160 Ct
Micellar Water
I have recently changed which micellar water I use and I will never go back after using this one. It really leaves my skin hydrated after using it, my old one dried my skin out but this one is really nice. It is also WAY better at removing makeup.
Micellar Water Ultra
I like to use this one when removing makeup mostly!
Kind to Skin Micellar Cleansing Water - Simple® Skincare
Sunscreen
This sunscreen works great under makeup and is actually the only one I use under makeup. When worn by itself it give you a cute glow also.
Superlight Sunscreen SPF 30
I love this tinted sunscreen for my no-makeup days! However, i would not recommend this under makeup its way too thick and oily for that.
Luxury Sun Ritual - Pore Smoothing SPF 30 ...
My favorite new sunscreen I use! Most sunscreens are super oily on me and break me out but this has a dry touch finish so it's perfect under my makeup.
1.7 oz Anthelios Clear Skin Dry Touch Face Sunscreen SPF 60 - La Roche-Posay | Ulta Beauty
Masks
This one is super nice! Really light and didn't irritate my skin.
Rose Face Mask, 100Ml | Skincare
I use this in the areas I breakout most only
Umbrian Clay Pore-Purifying Face Mask - Fresh
Exfoliants
This is super nice to use 1-2 times a week! I used it when i was having breakouts.
AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser - Murad Skincare
I really really love this physical exfoliant! It really does give you the glass skin effect.
Glass Skin Face Polisher
Toner/Hydrosol
This is a local Lavender farm near my hometown and I LOVEEEE this hydrosol! I cover my whole body in it, seriously.
Lavender Hydrosol
I won't say it's pore reducing because a toner WILL NOT do that for you but it is a nice toner if you are acne prone! Use it only once or twice a week!
