My Evening Skin Care Routine: Winter Edition
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.
