simple skin care
Sensitive Acne Prone Skin Care Routine for a Mid-30’s Female:
I’ve always been big into skin care, and as I venture into my mid thirties, I want to have a simple, affordable skin regime that’s going to be incredibly effective in nourishing my skin now and preventing aging down the road.
My routine consists of three items at night and two in the day, including cleansing, and sunscreen. Make up consists of three products as to keep it simple and natural looking.
I steer clear of Botox and other injectables, and while I’m a huge fan of a facial, I don’t want to rely on them. :)
Night:
Derma-E Vitamin C Cleanser - wash at night
Bakuchiol Serum - used every night as a retinol alternative
Vitamin C 10% Serum - used every night
Morning:
No face washing in the morning.
Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30
Jojoba Oil as a make up base
Make Up:
Hydrating concealer, mineral mascara, and basic brow pencil
Seasonally:
Microdermabrasion a few times per year when my skin feels like it needs a deep clean or if it feels ‘built up’ or clogged. I find Vitamin C really helps with the texture and preventing breakouts as well, so there’s less need to exfoliate. The Backuchiol works as a natural plant derived version of retinol, but is gentle enough for my sensitive skin.
