My Current Morning Skincare Routine

I have always been very protective of my skin and although I enjoy experimenting with new and exciting products, it's all about balance. I try not to change too many products in my routine all at once because I know that it will upset my skin. Not to mention, you aren't reaping the benefits of your amazing skincare products if you keep switching them constantly. Therefore, I like to remain loyal to the products that consistently keep my skin healthy and glowing! 

My morning skincare routine is definitely on point right now! These six products have done a wonderful job at keeping my dry skin nourished and hydrated throughout the cold winter months.

After hopping out of bed and brushing my teeth, I like to give my skin a thorough cleanse. The gentle, oil-based formulation of MŪN'snew Akwi Purifying Cleanser is the perfect way to start the day. Just massage this lightweight cream onto dry skin and gradually add water to emulsify. The lush, soothing texture of this cleanser sweeps away impurities and unclogs pores beautifully. After rinsing with warm water, I like to remove any remaining residue with a warm washcloth.

This luxurious cleanser leaves my skin so refreshed and supple! It's also packed with incredible ingredients and has a pH range of 4.7-5.2 to support the acid mantle without stripping it of any moisture.

Next, I like to tone with Thayers' Lemon Witch Hazel Astringent. Made with extracts from the Witch Hazel shrub, this fresh-smelling astringent removes any further residue and helps balance my skin. Witch Hazel is a natural anti-inflammatory that helps tighten pores and reduce swelling, while the addition of Aloe Vera nourishes and soothes.

After a quick spritz of Odacité's Mint + Green Tea Hydra-Purifying Treatment Mist help prevent breakouts, clear existing pimples, and purify my pores.

On to moisturizer! Pai's Avocado & Jojoba Hydrating Day Cream is my go-to! Formulated to deliver long-lasting nourishment for dry and dehydrated skin, this cream is so effective that it's a no-brainer! It absorbs quickly, leaves my skin feeling velvety soft, and has a citrusy, floral scent. 

For an extra boost, I like to add a drop of Odacité's Acai Rose Serum Concentrate to my moisturizer before massaging it into my skin. This anti-aging potion provides my skin with a radiant, youthful glow. In addition to revitalizing my dull, lifeless AM complexion, this serum is also quite balancing and plumping. I cannot recommend Odacité enough!! 

Finally, I apply 100% Pure Coffee Bean Caffeine Eye Cream to minimize dark circles and calm the inevitable morning puffiness underneath my eyes! The addition of green tea and coffee provides some seriously potent anti-inflammatory power. This eye cream also contains natural anti-aging ingredients that are meant to nourish and brighten.
