Skin care has always been important to me! My mom always told me to wear sunscreen and stay out of the sun. Although I didn’t listen to her much as a teenager (LOL) I definitely started being more cautious of my skin in my twenties and it has definitely served me well now that I am in my 40’s. While I have tried many products over the years, I have found a few favorites that I have stuck with that have worked well for me. Best part- most of these are at your local drug store!

Aveeno Absolutely Ageless Nourishing Face Cleanser– I use this morning and night. My skin truly feels clean after using this.

Clean & Clear Essentials Deep Cleaning Astringent– I use this only at night. It can dry out the skin a bit so using it in the morning is the best for me. You want your skin to be moisturized enough when applying makeup so your skin doesn’t soak up the makeup making it not last as long.

L’Oreal Collagen Cream– I use this at night only. Make sure to apply it all the way down to your neck and chest.

Olay Regenerist Fragrance-Free Retinol 24 Night Serum– I use this on my forehead area only as I feel that is where I have the most lines. I’ll work it down from there to the rest of my face. I have noticed a huge difference since using this!

Aveeno Positively Radiant Skin Brightening Daily Scrub– I try and use a scrub a few times a week and have recently added this one into the rotation. It’s very light and makes your skin feel great!

Clean + Clear Dual Moisturizer– Perfect for more acne prone/ oily skin. I love using this under my make up to avoid

St. Ives Acne Control Oil-Free Salicylic Acid Apricot Scrub– I have literally used this since Jr High and it is still working for me today! I know some aestheticians have their opinions on this, but I love it.

Neutrogena Bright Boost Resurfacing Micro Polish– just started using this and so far I am LOVING it! The smell is amazing!

Younique Daily Moisturizer– The great thing about this is that you can customize it to your needs. Tinted, oil control, pore diminishing, you name it! I prefer the oil control, tinted and environmental protection. If my skin is feeling a little dry it’s a great compliment to my Clean and Clear dual moisturizer. This one also smells really good! Reminds me of a spa! Love it!
