Step by Step Skin Care Routine

Since my
prior ‘beauty regime‘ post earlier this year, I
have additional skin care products and some new favorites; I also mentioned my
skin care routine onInstagramand on my Snapchat (Jadore-Fashion).

The products
I have not changed are Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser, Hydraluron, Dr. Dennis Gross
Ferulic Retinol Serum, and Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisturizer with SPF 15. I
have however added Kiehls Midnight Recovery Concentrate, Kiehls Daily
Reviving Concentrate, Kiehls powerful reducing eye cream,
Aesop Exfoliate paste andAesop facial toner.

Over the years, I have come to understand
my skin and the products that work best for me with regards to maintaining good
and healthy skin. In the past, I limited my options to SPF
moisturizers, facial cleansers and Vaseline products. On this post, I am
sharing my current skin care routine.

I use different facial cleansers and face
oils in the morning and at night. In morning, I use Kiehls Reviving
Concentrate and Cetaphil for a gentle and soft touch because at that time of
the day, my skin has not been in contact with external particles i.e makeup
e.t.c . At night, I use Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash which I call ‘little
fighter’ as it clears off potential or current acne and I also use the Kiehls
Midnight Concentrate.

Step by
Step Process:

• Step 1:I wipe my face using baby wipes

• Step 2:After removing my makeup, I
  use Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash (at night) orCetaphil(in
  the morning) to gently wash my face

• Step 3: with a
  cotton pad, I useAesop Parsley Seed
  Anti-oxidant facial tonerand
  pat onto my skin.  It helps refine pores and balances the skin.

• Step 4: I apply
  a pea size amount ofHydraluronover my face. I love the way it keeps
  my skin plumped and hydrated.

• Step 5: Next, I
  use the Dr.
  Dennis Gross Ferulic Retinol Serum by applying drops under my
  eyes and over my eye lids day and night; it gives smoother and firmer eyelids.

• Step 6: After
  the serum, I apply thePowerful Wrinkle
  Reducing Eye Cream. I started using this product after trying out a
  small pack…love it! I can see a difference in the morning around my eyes
  after using it at night. I love the texture and it’s not greasy.

• Step 7: I was a
  bit hesitant about oil concentrate because I have normal to oily skin, but
  after sampling thisKiehls Midnight
  Recovery Concentrate, it has become constant in my
  routine.  It is very lightweight and it is amazing how it restores my
  skin appearance overnight leaving it smoother.  After using it for
  months, I decided to try theDaily Reviving
  Concentrate. I use theKiehls
  Midnight Recovery Concentrateat
  night and the Daily Reviving Concentratein
  the morning. 

• Step 8: Not
  listed in the pictures, I useNeutrogena Oil-Free
  Moisturizer with SPF 15 in the morning only. It feels
  light and keeps my face moisturized throughout the day. The SPF 15 is a
  plus for sun protection. I have been using this for years. The oldest product
  in my routine.

• Step 9: Lastly,
  I use thisBiossance ‘The Nourisher’ Rose oilmainly at night after applying the
  Midnight Recovery Concentrate. It contains Vitamin C which is designed to keep
  you skin radiant and smooth and it definitely does. It is an amazing product in
  a small bottle! It is non greasy and it keeps my face moisturized. The
  smell is amazing too!

Extra:Purifying Facial Exfoliate PasteI use this once or twice a week with
myCLARISONIC. It leaves my skin
really cleansed and soft. I follow up with my Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-oxidant facial tonerand the rest of my routine.
