Now that there’s a wedding planning underway there are a few things I am taking more seriously. One of those is my skin care regiment which has previously been lacking. This month I switched up my routine to include better products that leave my skin feeling fresh and clean and have made noticeable differences in my complexion. Read on for some BTS on my day-today skin care routine.
First, I start by removing my eye makeup with miscellar water on a cotton square. I am currently using the brand pictured, but I used the before and I liked it much better. I don’t like to waste things so I am using this one until it’s gone and then I will grab another bottle of the Garnier kind.
Next I wet the bristles on my Clarisonic spin brush with warm water then I add a couple drops of and glide it over my face in circular motions on the slow setting to gently cleanse my skin. I make sure to run it all over my face and even under my chin to make sure I don’t miss any makeup. I rinse my face with warm water and run the spin brush over my face once more to make sure I’ve removed any oil, dirt, or foundation that is still stuck on my skin.
After I dab my face dry with a towel I wet a cotton square with some , which acts as a toner, and run that over my face before applying my face cream. During the drier months certain areas of my skin get dry and in those cases I rub some over the area to give it some moisture (since switching to the spin brush I haven’t experienced this type of dryness though)! I’ve noticed a huge change in my skin by pairing the deep pore cleansing regiment with my Clarisonic spin brush and this tone correcting cream. I’ve been using both for about a month now and I have found that I am less prone to break outs and the redness in my skin has gone down drastically.
What I’ve learned from changing up my skin care regiment is that your skin is an investment. I used to sleep in my makeup in high school which is so bad for your skin and your eyes. When I look back I can’t help but wonder what I was thinking! Now I take my skin care more seriously by investing in better products and committing to cleansing my skin every night before bed. I am so glad that I swapped out my drug store brand face wash and facecloth for the deep pore cleanser and my spin brush. There is a noticeable difference after washing where my skin feels cleaner than ever. I also noticed that I am not finding makeup residue on towels or pillow cases anymore because I am actually getting it all off before bed with this new routine.
