Throughout highschool, I tried to stick to a skincare routine but always got too lazy or forgot about it before going to bed. As I have gotten older, I have put more effort into protecting my skin and picking out good products for my skin type and age. As a college student, I wanted products that would help me with the typical problems us students face: stress breakouts, tired under eyes, and dry skin. But I also wanted products that were good for my skin and that started to prevent aging. It might seem early to start this early with anti-aging products, but I think it is proactive to include a step in your routine every so often that will help to combat aging in the future. I hope you all find my skincare routine useful!
step 1: cleanser
Ever since about 6th grade, I have been pretty adamant about washing my face. I wouldn't necessarily wash it with soap, but just about every night or morning I would rinse it with water. I like to use a cleanser that is gentle on my skin and not drying, but also one that washes away makeup and makes my skin feel super clean. I have found that in the
Origins Checks and Balances Frothy face wash. I have purchased many of these because I love this face wash so much. It builds up a frothy mix on your face and strips away the makeup and impurities. However, my skin doesn't feel super dry like other face washes have done before. I highly recommend this wash. Tip: wash your face twice a day. If you don't have a lot of time in the morning, just splash your face with water and then wash your face with cleanser in the evening.
step 3: treatments/masks
Every so often (especially around that certain time of the month) a couple pimples break out- and I mean big pimples. So, to try to combat the mess I will spot treat with either the
Glam Glow supermud mask or use the
Boscia Clear Complexion Willow Bark spot treatment. If you don't spot-treat, start doing that right now. I have seen such a drastic difference in my overall skin health when I spot-treat a pimple. I also will use the Glamglow mask whenever I feel my skin needs a good cleaning. I love this mask because when 20 minutes have passed, you have little dots all over your face from the mask drawing the oil and impurities out of your skin. Weird, I know, but it's such a great mask and makes my skin feel squeaky clean. And one more mask (haha I love face masks!) is the
Arbonne Rescue and Renew Detox mask. This one contains French clay, which starts out as a muddy orange and turns white as it detoxes the skin. And it smells like rosemary which is a definite plus.
step 5: eyes
The skin around the eyes is generally the most thin layer of skin on the face. It deserves a little bit more attention because of the delicateness of this area. I love using an eye cream because I feel like it gives my under-eyes a boost of moisture and also keeps them looking bright. I love using the
Arbonne Corrective Eyecream. I pump the tiniest amount onto my ring finger and gently rub into the skin under my eyes, around my "crow's feet" area, and up in the area between my eyebrows. This cream contains caffeine which helps to diminish the appearance of puffy and tired undereyes- definitely something a college student needs!
step 6: moisturizer
Final step: moisturizer! I use two different moisturizers, one for the morning and one for the evening. In the morning I use the
Elta MD sunscreen. I don't use an actual "moisturizer" because I prefer just to put a light layer of something on anyways. This sunscreen is light enough for wear all day but provides just the right amount of moisture in the morning. I put on sunscreen every single day, especially during the summer. If I am wearing a lower-cut top, I will put sunscreen on my upper chest area as well. I am very adamant about sun protection, especially since the best way to keep your skin young is to wear sunscreen. In the evening I use the
Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream. It's light-weight but thick enough to provide a nice moisture for my skin to soak in. I love the scent too- it's very natural!
I love the skincare products that you choose! I still regularly forget to clean my skin, but I will soon create a routine that I can remember. That glamglow supermud face mask is amazing! I love it to get rid of my blackheads or any pimples that are trying to erupt on my face.
