Three Morning Skin Care Essentials

8/07/2018


There's nothing like starting a morning with positivism. One of the things I love to do is to start my morning with a cup of coffee and to meditate a little (unless I have classes and work, otherwise I get way too early for that). But I'll always do my skin care routine and I'll share today the three stars of said routine.

Keeping it simple

Although I like to indulge into a really pampering night time routine, in the mornings I like to keep things more simple. Not only in steps but also in ingredients. I like to go straight into simple hydration and no acids or anything that might be too harsh or make me sensitive to the sun (specially in the summer time). Which is why - as I've mentioned more than once - that I go for my The Body Shop Vitamin E toner in the mornings. It is super simple and doesn't break me out or anything like that. It tones my skin after cleanser and also gives a small boost of moisture before the moisturiser. 
Another option I used before this one was the Caudalie Moisturizing Toner, which contains hyaluronic acid and has a more liquid consistency when compared to the liquid and yet goopy consistency that this toner in particular has (and is why it gives the extra boost of moisture in my humble opinion. 


Follow it with the best 


Following toner, I love to go in for a good moisturiser. I have oily to dehydrated skin. That means that the regular "mattifying" moisturisers don't really cut it for me because my skin needs are not the standard. Because of that I tend to always look for a simple moisturiser that has Hyaluronic Acid (and no mineral oil). My current obsession is the Bioderma Hydrabio Gel-CrĆ©me which has my favourite consistency : gel-cream. This bad boy also gives my face the "ready to makeup" look. Another option that some times I love to use is my night cream, the Neutrogena Hydro Boost gel-creme  which also sets my skin for the next step
Following that I like to use the Neutrogena hydro boost eye cream, which was a life saver when my eyes got this really weird due to a cold allergy. This was able to keep my eyes moisturised and help me repair them the damage done.  So far I really love it and I don't see myself switching it, but who knows what might happen in the future right?

  3. I really want to buy the toner! I saw it in june and just left it for later but now I can't wait. I wash my face with their tea tree wash and it does wonders on my skin.

  4. In the mornings I don't do much to my skin, just moisturize it.
    That body shop toner looks great!

    1. Same! Although I always do the other steps like cleansing and toning, otherwise the moisturiser won't be looking good.
      Wishing you all the best!

  5. I'm such a fan of the Bioderma moisturiser! It's so lightweight for summer but still hydrating :)
