I am by no means a skincare expert, but I have been trying to up my game and stay consistent. When I got Lasik in early April, I couldn’t wear any makeup for 2 weeks, so I really made a huge effort to keep my skin looking nice and have stuck with it since. I predominately use a handful of brands, but these have worked for my sensitive, combination skin so I thought I’d share. Check out my picks on Amazon!

AM
I use the Clinique Liquid Facial Soap for Mild for Dry Combination Skin to gently cleanse and prep my skin.
I’m obsessed with the VASANTI Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator Exfoliating Face Wash. It is super fine and exfoliates gently, yet effectively.
The Pixi Glow Tonic Serum gently exfoliates, hydrates and nourishes skin to start my day.
The Cetaphil Daily Hydrating Lotion with Hyaluronic Acid works wonders for my skin. It’s lightweight and isn’t greasy. I put some on while I’m doing my hair and by the time I’m ready to do makeup, it’s soaked in and good to go.
I’ll often apply the Pixi Glow Mist right before I head out the door. It is a multitasker since it refreshes makeup, as well as hydrates and adds glow to your skin.
PM
First things first, I have to remove the makeup from the day. I’ve been a fan of the Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover for quite some time now. I’ll also use some wipes of varying brands, as well.
At the end of the day, I like to use the Pixi Beauty Retinol Toner. It’s great for my sensitive skin and I see a big improvement in overall texture and pores from using this.
The Glow Peel Pads are a quick, easy way to minimize pores, breakouts, and fine lines while promoting an even skin tone. This is the most recent addition to my routine, but I’ve been loving it so far.
The Pixi Overnight Glow Serum (actually, all the Glow products) is amazing. It helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines all while you sleep.
The Firmarine Eye Serum calms and de-puffs the delicate area around your eyes while leaving the skin feeling firm and supple.
This moisturizer means business! the GLAMGLOW DREAMDUO™ Overnight Transforming Treatment makes my skin feel SO soft and look amazing. It smells phenomenal, as well.
WEEKLY
Some stuff is a little too intense for daily use, so I try to do it weekly instead.
The Erno Laszlo White Marble Dual Phase Vitamin C Peel might be my holy grail skincare item. It makes my skin look AMAZING. It is a clarifying two-step peel that gently polishes skin. It makes my pores and the dry areas of my face look so much better.
This cleanser/oil combo is amazing but is very strong so I only use it 1-2x per week so my skin doesn’t feel too dry. First, you use the Detoxifying Cleansing Oil then you use the Sea Mud Deep Cleansing Bar for a whole new level of clean.
AS NEEDED
Who doesn’t love a good nose strip from time to time? I love the BIORÉ® DEEP CLEANSING PORE STRIPS to really get those pores clean.
I don’t get TOO many blemishes nowadays, but when I do, I love the Patchology Breakout Box. It has Salicylic Acid dots and hitehead-absorbing hydrocolloid dots absorb gunk from the skin and stop pimples in their tracks.
