Skin care routine //

Lately I've been getting tons of request for my skin care routine. Im honestly not going to ask why, because that's beyond me.
I've always struggled with acne from middle school all the way up to high school even now in college. 
I didn't have it easy. I was for a while on a acne medication that worked marvelously. But one morning after a couple months on medication I woke up with two swollen eyelids. Turns out I'm allergic to benzoyl peroxide. Being allergic to that really made it hard to find  a really good acne treatment with out benzoyl peroxide. Fortunately after much pain, redness, and scars my acne is disappearing and my skin is glowing. Because of this I have "the acne cure"to thank.  I do everything in that book besides benzoyl peroxide. My favorite thing that's also really helps and makes a difference has to be essential oils. Ever since I started using them I've seen such improvement. Alright  enough talk lets get into my skin care routine:

I use this to wash my face morning and night. It's super gentle on my skin yet leaves it feeling clean and tight. 


Im not sure what this stuff is, to be honest. My Mom gave it to me after she read the acne cure book. And wow this stuff leaves my skin soooft. Like silky smooth. Apparently it hydrates the skin? Im not going to question it because it leaves my skin soft and gets rid of my acne. I can so tell a difference in my skin when I don't use it. I apply this on in the morning before moisturizer. 
This is my morning moisturizer. Moisturizer is a girl's best friend. My skin is a medium between dry and oily. This moisturizer helps combat both. The reason I only use it in the morning is because I added grapefruit oil in the bottle. Citrus oil can make you very wide awake. So I don't recommend adding grapefruit oil to your night moisturizer. 

This is my night time moisturizer. I must add before I apply this to my face I do use this toner (not pictured because I ran out) anyways that toner is amazing I only apply it once a day. So after I toned my face I apply this moisturizer. Yes, it expensive but it leaves my skin super smooth it's so incredibly important to leave skin healthy. If this is too $$ this is my 2nd favorite moisturizer for the night time. 

After my night moisturizer I apply two drops of frankincense. DISCLAIMER I have no clue why I put this on my face my Mom and Sister told me too and YOU GUYS IT'S MAGIC. It get's rid of my acne and reduces redness. It's weird but I'm not complaining. 

This is what I put on my skin in the morning after my moisturizer. It makes my skin feel alive. And I do believe it's helping to reduce my scars.

So there you have it, that's my skin care routine. Nothing terribly exciting I'm afraid. Let me know if you have any questions. Also tell me some of you favorite skin care products.

  1. I think that if you want to make your girlfriend or wife a good gift, you have to think well about what you are going to get her. Sure,perfume gift sets for women are always a good idea, but only if you are certain that this is what she needs. If you are not too sure, it never hurts asking, although you have to be careful not to get on her wrong side!
