My skincare routine


This is what I now use on a regular basis and my skin instantly looked better then ever by doing this routine for just a week! My skin is glowy, pores aren't clogged and my acne is almost completely gone. The few spots I have less are barely visible.

My skin started off with a fair amount of acne caused by silica and other types of silicone. My skin would get congested after just 3-4 days. I'm sharing my morning routine and in another post I will share my night time routine.

In 2 other posts I have mentioned the BHA 9 by Paula's choice that I use when needed (about twice a week) and I use the foam once a week at night however I will be putting that off for testing on a 10% aha by Paula's choice and that post will be up in a week or two.

ROUTINE (Morning)

Sometimes I wash my face in the morning using the purity cleanser however I tend to be lazy and just use Cliniques acne solutions toner on some Kleenex to wipe down my face. It does contain a lot of alcohol so I won't be using it once its done but for now it works.

I then follow with Paula's choice skin balancing pore-reducing toner. I pour some in a container and then apply it with my fingers. This helps hydrate my skin.

If I have any acne I use the Paula's choice clear 2.5% benzoyl peroxide treatment.

I then let that sit so I skip over to my eye cream. I don't have a favourite but today I used Bobbi brown hydrating eye cream.

Next I apply tartes maracuja oil. I have the rollerball version. I roll it onto my finger then dab it onto sections of my face.

Lastly I apply my nivia lip butter in vanilla and macadamia.

That sums up my morning skin care routine. It's basic and it works great. For that routine it cost about $100 Canadian keep in mind I used one sample and some smaller versions. For all full sizes it would be closer to $150+
