Learn this publish if you wish to be taught extra about how one can apply skincare in the proper order.

As my esthetician jogs my memory, consistency is essential for making enhancements together with your pores and skin… consistency is the key to virtually every little thing, isn’t it!?

Right here’s my present post-shower lineup (you possibly can take a look at my night/PM skincare routine right here):

My Morning Skincare Routine

(a.ok.a. each time I take my first bathe)

CLEANSE

Countermatch Foaming Cleanser

The Countermatch Foaming Cleanser is a fundamental staple I like to recommend for mixture pores and skin, and one I take advantage of myself. I feel it smells like an almond cookie. For no matter motive, I’ve been having fun with this extra recently than the cleaning oil, I feel as a result of it’s a bit extra shower-friendly! And it really works nice with the new exfoliating polish! 

PREP

Two toners!? Sure, two. However actually just one is critical! I don’t use them each every single day, however I at all times use the Essence. Not solely is it step one on a clear face, however I feel it’s a very powerful for these with dry pores and skin (like me!). 

Countertime Mineral Enhance Hydrating Essence

That is my favourite product of the complete Countertime assortment! I’ve at all times had a love for toners and that is critically the very best toner I’ve ever tried. Though it’s not technically a toner – it’s an essence that “lends very important vitamins to the pores and skin’s moisture barrier immediately boosting hydration and radiance.” It’s simply thick sufficient that if you sprinkle it into your fingers, it doesn’t fall by way of your fingers, making patting it in your face after cleaning straightforward.

All Vivid Triple Acid AHA Toner

I take advantage of this toner a pair instances per week after the essence. It’s made with a mix of AHAs, beta hydroxy acid, kombucha, and niacinamide to softly exfoliate pores and skin and assist stimulate cell turnover. It’s additionally pore refining, serving to to enhance and reduce the looks of pores. My objective with including that is to clean the evenness of my pores and skin over time. 

TREAT

Countertime Tripeptide Radiance Serum

That is the place the magic occurs. The serum’s objective is to extend pores and skin firmness and elasticity (sure!) whereas lowering tremendous traces (sure!) through a robust mix of peptides, amino acids and the Retinatural heroes. It goes on so easily – virtually like a gel – and smells scrumptious, frivolously of flowers. I take advantage of this each different day and rotate within the All Vivid C Serum on reverse days. 

All Vivid C Serum

That is the daytime good friend of the fan favourite In a single day Resurfacing Peel, and it’s designed to brighten and even out pores and skin tone. Not solely does it work to fade brown spots and hyperpigmentation, but it surely really inhibits melanin synthesis to stop darkish spots from showing. Vitamin C can degrade shortly in magnificence merchandise, and Beautycounter has been working for years to develop this mix of two types of vitamin C in a brilliant secure formulation that really delivers outcomes.

PROTECT

Countermatch Adaptive Moisture Lotion

An all-star Beautycounter product, this light-weight moisturizer is one I’ve been reaching for in place on the Countertime Antioxidant Comfortable Cream (it’s cheaper as a bonus, too!). I really like that it’s skinny and absorbs simply (as a result of I add a pair different protecting merchandise, too), however offers lasting hydration. Thomas and I each use it, so we undergo it fairly shortly. 

Countersun Day by day Sheer Protection SPF 25

I at all times apply a layer of this face sunscreen earlier than my tinted moisturizer within the hotter months since I spend a ton of time outdoors. You may by no means apply to a lot solar safety, in my view. It layers seamlessly and doesn’t go away a white solid. And it’s not greasy in any respect below make-up. 

Dew Pores and skin Tinted Moisturizer with SPF

That is the beginning of my make-up routine because it has some tinted colour, however I additionally contemplate it the top of skincare due to the additional layer of moisturizer and SPF! I put on shade No. 3 for reference. It provides the right gentle protection that soaks in effectively and, not like foundations, doesn’t really feel like you’ve gotten any make-up in your face. 

QUICK MAKEUP

If I’m working out the door to the health club (sure I put one thing on earlier than the health club!) or counting on Zoom calls whereas I work at home, I may additionally add on prime of my Dew Pores and skin: a swipe of concealer below my eyes, some cream blush for colour (the shade Cider provides the right “flush” with out trying too pink, and add a little bit of lip gloss to really feel full!
