My Favorite Skincare Products

To be completely honest, I only recently started taking care of my skin, specifically on my face. I literally used to sleep in my makeup every night and when I would take it off, it was with some Bath and Body Works lotion or whatever body wash I was currently using. It makes me cringe just thinking about it! But maybe five New Years Resolutions ago, I made it a point to take it seriously and very rarely miss a night where the skincare routine doesn’t happen.

I use “routine” loosely because I am positive there are others that have an 8 step process, but like I just mentioned, I didn’t have time or the patience for something like that. I don’t even use a toner- whatever that is!! But below I have compiled a list of all the things I currently use or have used and loved. All price points, but I will say– I am an ELEMIS girlie forever. I have yet to find a product I love more. I hope you can find something you love to add into your skincare routine!

1. Bio-Oil: This is great for uneven skin tones or if you have any scarring! I actually used this on my belly when I was pregnant with Delta to prevent stretch marks as well.
2. I know everyone has opinions on using wipes to take your makeup off, but these used to do the trick for me. I like these specifically because they are SO hydrating. I still keep them in the cabinet for occasional use.
3. THESE WORK. I have no idea how, but they bring everything to the surface and embarrassingly enough, I have worn these out, covered up by makeup ha!
4. A little bit of a splurge but this balm is everything!! It completely melts your makeup right off, and smells kind of like you just got a facial. Leaves your skin so silky smooth.
5. Whatever the balm didn’t get off (spoiler: it’s getting the most off) this will. I love the way these smell and they’re also a little exfoliant.
6. Best wrinkle cream. It says day time but I put this on morning and night cause I’m not messing around.
7. Okay now this is my favorite thing to put on right after I wake up. It is hydrating, and feels so good in the morning’s.
8. I originally used lancome products before ELEMIS and this was my absolute favorite moisturizer. I wish I could accurately describe how “high end” this feels. It’s so thick but also feels like butter on your face but not greasy.
9. I recently bought this product and feel like it wont take the place of the ELEMIS cleansing balm but it’s gooood!
10. If you are wanting to try ELEMIS products but can’t commit to the price tag, this is a great option. It’s only at Ulta, but the balm is full size and a little goes a long way with these products, so I feel like it’s worth it to try.
11. My sister left this last time she house sat for us. I used it when I ran out of ELEMIS cleansing balm and it made my face feel super clean and was not heavy or oily. Super refreshing.
12. This is technically a pre and postnatal oil that I used during my pregnancy and after. It’s the most hydrating thing I have found and I love to put it on my lips at night for the softest morning lips.

****Disclaimer: I have updated this post to fill you in on two products I have recently been using and have fallen in love with. THIS SERUM and THIS MOISTURIZER. Both are affordable and have changed the Elemis game for me. I use morning and night and have noticed the biggest difference in my skin already after 3 weeks.
