My Evening Skin Care Routine: Winter Edition

by - 11:28:00 AM


Hello my lovely readers,

After posting my morning skin care routine, it is obviously the time to talk about my evening one. I decided to split my regimen into two posts in order not to make a long boring one for you guys… With this said, and with no further ado, let’s jump into it.

To give you a brief background on my skin; I have a dry, dehydrated and nowadays dull skin type. I have few dark spots which the colour intensity can increase easily because of stress, lack of water, diet.. etc.

After wearing makeup or sometimes even without, I first start with removing all the bulk, dirt and oils that accumulated throughout the day and for that I’ve been lately using the extra virgin coconut oil and I’m extremely obsessed with. I simply massage it into my skin for 2-3 minutes and I remove it by splashing warm water. Not only it’s natural, but it is the most efficient makeup remover I’ve ever used in my entire life. It literally melts down all kind of makeup in no time, leaving the skin very soft and hydrated. The only down side, as I’ve explained in an earlier post here, is the greasy residue however as many of you would know by now that I’m a cleansing freak and would go for double, if not triple, cleansing. Check out the truth about it here. And for that I use the same thing of my morning routine; the Clinique liquid facial soap extra mild and the Beauty Formulas Vitamin E foaming facial wash.

I follow up with Rose water as a toner to refresh the skin and lock in moisture. Then it’s time for my best part, that is the DIY Oil Serum, and I’m sure I’ve been saying this for a million time but I just can’t help it!!!

I let the oil set up for 10 minutes and will grab the Dr. Andrew WEIL for Origins Mega-Bright skin tone correcting serum which works on the dark spots and leaves the skin bright and even instantly and overtime.

My last serum is the Origins Plantscription anti-aging serum. What? A lot already???? Well I’m thirty something, what do you expect???? … I’m impressed about this stuff, as I’ve really noticed a change since I started using this product in my under eye fine lines and forehead ones.

Lastly, I moisturize. Using my ring finger I apply the Origins A Perfect World For Eyes. I can’t say that it made any difference in regards of the dark coloration however it certainly helps the lines seem less noticeable. For the rest of my face and neck, I enjoy applying the Origins High-Potency Night-A-Mins thanks to its citrus smell. There is a noticeable improvement in firmness and hydration of my skin after using this product. It’s a tick night moisturizer without being greasy and my skin simply drinks it up! For my lips at the very last of this regimen, I couldn’t find anything better than the incredible Nuxe Reve de Miel Lip Balm with its extreme luxurious texture that I’m obsessed with and I reviewed here.

So that’s it for my evening skin care routine. I would love to hear from you if you have any questions or product to recommend.
