Beauty Series: Daily Routine. Part 5.

Today comes the last part of this beauty series, my nighttime beauty routine.  It begins pretty much the same as my morning routine, with a clean face. It doesn’t matter if I wear makeup or not that day, I always clean my face at night, at least with a face wipe (Pond’s Morning Refresh). Another morning product that I use also at night, it’s the Sephora Instant Depuffing Roll-on Gel for the eyes. Although, lately I’ve been using a sample of Dr. Brandt Dark Circles Away I got with my reward points at Sephora. I like it, but at a hefty $55 for half an ounce, I probably won’t be buying it any time soon.

Beauty Series: Daily Routine. Part 2.

Now comes the second part of this beauty series, so let’s pick up right where we left off.

The next step in my morning beauty routine, after cleaning my face and applying eye gel,  is moisturizing my skin.  For a few years, I’ve been applying a vitamin C serum by Avalon Organics. Besides the vitamin C in it, which it’s great to fight sun damage, it’s full of antioxidants that help fight all signs of aging, from freckles to wrinkles. It’s oil-free and very light, I highly recommend it.

Following the serum, I use an oil-free moisturizer. I have tried several over the years, but since recently deciding to avoid chemicals as much as possible, I discovered a new product that it’s not from a mainstream brand and that I’m really pleased with: Neaclear Liquid Oxygen Anti-Acne Facial Moisturizer. The name is pretty self explanatory, it contains oxygen and acne fighting ingredients, including salicylic acid. It is a truly non-greasy cream, which it’s one of my favorite things about it, it doesn’t leave my face shiny at all. Plus it contains a bunch of vitamins (A,C,D and E), and no sulfates, parabens nor any other harsh chemicals. It is also very reasonably price at $6.99 for a 4 oz. bottle. This one is a keeper!

 That’s it for today. Don’t miss tomorrow the final step in my morning beauty routine before moving on to my night time routine.

 

Avalon Organics Vitamin C Facial Serum: $18.77 at Walmart.
Neaclear Liquid Oxygen Anti-Acne Facial Moisturizer: $6.99 at Ulta.

 

Beauty Series: Daily Routine. Part 1.

Since I did my last post on beauty, some of you have been asking me about my daily beauty routine for my face at morning and night, and about the products I use. So I figure I would share that information with all of you here. However, it would make for one long (and possibly boring) post, so I decided to make it into a series, and I will be posting all the information in parts all throughout this week.
