Daily Routine

Im not usually one to post tons of beauty advice or tips, but I wanted to get some advice on my skincare routine, and you ladies seem to be just the ones to help!

I don't like to go overboard with product... my face isn't oily, but I do tend to break out frequently and don't like to add to the mix of nasty.

In the morning, I generally brush my teeth and use one of those pre-moistened face wipes (My Dr. used to tell me that if you wash your face really well at night, there should be no reason to have to redo it in the morning.  However, I like to feel "clean" and make sure I am starting with a fresh palette).  Then I started using this: 



and follow it with a daytime moisturizer containing an SPF.

After that, it's usually just foundation to even out my eye area... I am plagued by dark circles!  Then a neutral eyeshadow and brown/black mascara.  That's it, nothing fancy unless I am going out on a date or out for drinks, etc.  Then its eyeliner, blush, the whole nine yards :)

Night Time:
Generally I use either Noxema or a cream cleanser I found at Target, again with the Tea Tree oil, and then my night moisturizer.  I don't use an eye cream, basically bc I haven't found one that doesn't irritate my eyes and make me constantly cry.

Once a week I like to use a mask, followed by a Beauty Control Mist.

Most of the time, I have found that these products don't irritate my skin, or break my bank account, but I am always looking for new suggestions or tips.

What is your skin routine???

  1. I just started selling BeautiControl because I love their entire skincare regime. Their eye cream works wonders for me because I too have a really dark circle and it doesn't bother my eyes either. I'm pretty sensitive to that. I don't wash my face in the morning either - too drying. But, yeah. I've been pretty happy with BeautiControl...they make a nice eye shadow primer as well, that I took a nap in and my friend thought I just freshly applied my makeup! LOL.

    But, my routine is in the AM, rinse face with water and BeautiControl AM Moisture Creme, BC Eye Roller, Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer, Benefit Sugarbomb blush, BC Eyeshadow Primer, Various Eyeshadow, Benefit Bad Gal Black Eyeliner, and L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara.

    At night, BC Face Wash Lotion, BC PHA Toner, BC Defend & Restore Night Creme, and BC Eye Cream.

  2. First off, thanks for the sweet comment on my post about being inspired and sharring it with someone, I totally agree with you. & second, your face routine sounds awesome and fast! Mine takes about twelve minutes because I have (or had) sensitive skin, but I heard BBee's is the best!
