The skin we’re in deserves to be nourished and pampered. Along with the changing seasons, the weather, stress, and daily exposure to pollution wreak havoc on the body’s largest organ. Luckily for us, I’m a skincare + makeup junkie and I’m so excited to share my favorite healthy gorgeous facial skincare picks that I swear by that gives me flawless winter skin.

I recently developed an obsession with all things skincare resulting in testing countless products that exfoliate, cleanse, hydrate, plump, moisturize, and fill. The first draft of this list had 25 items for the face and body, but it made so much more sense to write about body-pampering products separately. Today, we’re gonna focus on my top Amazon facial skincare products that I use from morning to night.

Morning Cleansing

Farmacy Whipped Greens Face Wash Oil Free Foaming Facial Cleanser

The daily morning cleansing ritual isn’t one that I take for granted, and I start it off with this gorgeous, foamy cleanser. My day hasn’t properly begun unless I get my suds on first, and unlike the rest of my skincare regimen, I use only one product to wash my face in the morning, because it’s THAT good. Farmacy Whipped Greens Face Wash Oil Free Foaming Facial Cleanser was a cleansing game-changer for me because it’s non-drying while it washes away impurities. You’ve gotta try this to believe it.

Serum the Difference

The next unskippable step in my daily skincare regimen involves the layering of various serums. I cycle my skincare, which means that I switch between various benefits depending on the day. For example, for four days of the week, I start with Vitamin C serum. On the other days, I toggle between glass skin or Vitamin B. My favorite serum combination is as follows:

Vitamin C + Niacinamide (propolis) + Facial Mist + Hyaularonic Acid

I know this may seem like a lot of products, and I’ll admit that it’s quite indulgent to treat my skin to this combination often, but the improvement I’ve noticed in my complexion has been incredible. There’s not a wrinkle in sight while I’m glowy and hydrated even before applying any facial creams. Some days, I start with this:

Peach & Lily Glass Serum

I follow a Korean skincare regimen affectionately known as K-skincare, which is known for producing glass skin. Peach & Lily glass serum is the holy grail of glass skin serums. My face is glowy, gleamy, and oh, so dreamy in texture and appearance. Essence is the next layer:

Peach & Lily Wild Dew Treatment Essence – This is the dew-like liquid that my skin loves to soak up!

Acure Seriously Hydrating Cucumber & Hyaluronic Acid Superfine Mist – I always use a mist of some sort right before using hyaluronic acid serum.

On other days, I start with Goodal Green Tangerine Vitamin C Serum on clean, dry skin.

Followed by: Beauty of Joseon Serum Line Glow Serum Propolis and Niacinamide

Now, don’t forget to use water, essence, or mist before applying hyaluronic acid like my favorite Vichy LiftActiv Supreme 1.5% Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum & Wrinkle Corrector 

Supreme Creams

My skin freaks out when I don’t use moisturizer. I’ve been using facial moisturizer since I was 12, thanks to my gorgeous grandmother whose skin always looked flawless. I watched her apply moisturizer before her makeup every day and every evening before bed, she applied her moisturizing facial balm. She has always had wonderfully soft, supple, and elastic skin.

I searched high and low for decades for the best facial cream, and I found the most incredible skin-nourishing cream a couple of years ago. This. This stuff is a straight-up miracle in a jar:

Peach & Lily Matcha Pudding Antioxidant Cream

My favorite go-to cream to use under makeup: Sweet Chef Superfood + Vitamins Moisture Boost Moisturizing Whipped Vitamin Facial Cream.

Wash the Day Away

No matter how tired I am before bed, I always, ALWAYS wash off all my makeup by using the double cleansing method. I take cleansing balm and melt a fat, pea-sized amount between my hands before gently massaging it all over my face, paying special attention to the area around my eyes so that I can more easily remove my mascara and eyeliner using a warmly damp washcloth.

Cleansing Balm (dry skin) + warm water (washcloth) + creamy face wash

Farmacy Green Clean Makeup Meltaway Cleansing Balm

Velvet Makeup Removing Face Washcloths

Pacifica Beauty Vegan Cream Collagen Creamy Face Wash and Overnight Recovery Face Cream

Face the Love

At the end of a long day, it’s important to remember that every part of us deserves attention and care, and if we don’t give ourselves that attention and care, no one else can give it to us. You are worthy of loving the skin you’re in!
