My quarantine skincare goal has been to get super dewy skin! I mean, what better time than now to really take care of our skin, am I right?
Here you’ll a few products that I have tried and consistently used over the past few months that I’ve been LOVING.
Before I dive in, I wanted to share that my main skin goals are to get oober glowy skin (of course) and to reverse my acne scars. And just so you have some context to the products I use, my skin type is: normal with occasional dryness. I previously had seasons of pretty bad acne but as of about 3 years ago, I’ve been acne free!
FACE WASH
1. FRESH, Soy Makeup Removing Face Wash $38
I really LOVE Fresh products and this gentle face wash has helped my skin look smoother and healthier!
2. ACURE, Brightening Cleansing Gel $8.74
I recently decided I wanted to experiment with purchasing a cheap face wash so that I could splurge on other skincare products — so I decided to give the Acure line a whirl! This brand creates natural products at a low price and I’ve been pleasantly surprised as my skin has been quite happy with this cleansing gel. For me: I’ve had no breakouts and my skin has stayed quite moisturized.
MASK/FACIAL SCRUB
1. FRESH Lotus Youth Preserve Rescue Mask $62
I REALLY love this mask and use it as a facial scrub 2-3x a week! My skin always looks so incredibly bright and smooth after using it!
2. ACURE, Brightening Facial Scrub $9.99
Similar to my face wash options, I wanted to try out a scrub that was a fraction of the cost of the Fresh Mask. This product isn’t nearly as effective in really invigorating the skin as the Fresh scrub BUT, it gently buffs my skin, getting rid of dead skin cells. I am currently rotating between this facial scrub and the Fresh Mask!
TONER
THAYERS, Witch Hazel Toner, Original $10.99
This is a very light, soothing toner with aloe vera and witch hazel extract. It’s super economical and this has been my forever go-to toner.
SERUM
CELLrenew — Collagen Infusion Serum (Anti-Acne -Anti Aging Stem Cell Serum $59
This is it! This is the MAIN product I currently cannot live without. So the main reason I’ve been testing out more economical face gels and scrubs is so that I can consistently splurge on this serum!
Specifically, this serum has REVERSED my acne scars! YES…you heard that right..reversed! I’ve noticed that the scars that were on the surface of my skin are mostly gone and now I’m giving more attention to the deeper scars on the side of my face. This magical serum also has been helping me get that extra glowy look I’ve been wanting and as the best added bonus, this serum also has anti-acne and anti-aging properties!
If there is nothing else you try from this list, try this! This is the holy grail skincare product for me! And save $10 while you’re at it (Code: eunice10) — you’re very welcome!
MOISTURIZER
1. Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Moisturizer $48
I love this moisturizer..so much! It is super super hydrating and my absolute favorite for daily morning and nighttime use! My skin always looks incredibly radiant! However, between me and Eddie using it daily, this $53 bottle disappears pretty quickly.
Ok…so do you want to know a secret? When I run out of the Lotus Youth Preserve…I buy a $29 cream from…Olay. I know….OLAY Y’ALL!
2. Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream $28.99
This is a super hydrating cream and has AMAZING reviews (As in 2300+ reviews and 4.6 stars on Ulta…crazy!) A few months back, I ran out of the Fresh Lotus Moisturizer and in a pinch I decided to try this Olay Cream and holy moly…I’m shocked! I’m using it right now and my skin is doing great! Super hydrated and no break-outs. Check out this cream if you want a cheaper alternative or back up to your main one!
