skincare for beginners
I’ve said it before, 2023 is the year of healthier habits and self care. So, you’re ready to start your skincare and take better care of yourself, but you’re frustrated because everything you’ve tried hasn’t yielded results? Are you ready to take the plunge into better skincare? If so, this blog post is for you. I’ll be going over a few different routines and products (in order of use) that are great starters for everyone!
Cleansers is where we're going to start first. My absolute favorite is Face Reality’s Ultra Gentle Cleanser. This cleanser is amazing for any and all skin types. It's great for anybody who is on a budget and wants a basic cleanser that will also remove makeup. It helps with acne, brightens the skin, is a great antioxidant cleanser and is great for anti-aging. Another favorite one of mine is going to be the Cleansing Gel by Skinbetter. This cleanser is seriously the most gentle cleanser I’ve ever used. It makes your face feel as soft as a baby's skin! Skinbetter is my medical grade skincare, so if you want to start off strong, there’s no better place to start than with this one!
Next up we have serums. I would recommend a hydrator to start with. Hydrabalance by Face Reality is a gel hydrator and an antioxidant as well. It’s very easy on the wallet at $28 and it plumps the skin which is great for getting rid of fine lines and wrinkles as well. My absolute favorite however is the Alto Advanced Defense Serum by Skinbetter. Again, this is my medical grade skincare line and is packed with vitamin C, hydration, antioxidants and peptides blended together. It helps with almost every skincare concern, not to mention pigmentation and redness.
Moisturizer is going to be the next stop here. I love the Cran-Peptide Cream by Face Reality for $28, this is going to be a great anti-aging and hydrating moisturizer for all skin types! If you feel you’re a bit more on the oily side, you could use Clearderma from Face Reality. Second favorite moisturizer option of mine is the Trio Rebalancing from Skinbetter. Nothing can outbeat this moisturizer because it’s truly a one stop shop. It takes the guesswork out of skin care because It has everything that your skin needs for moisturization. Trust me your skin will thank you a million times for using this moisturizer! MY ALL TIME FAV!!! Silky and smooth leaving the best glow on your skin! Helps every skin type to the deepest form with all the right nutrients!
Last is sunscreen. And yes, no matter the season, you always need to be putting sunscreen on and using it in your daily routine. This is your number one anti-ager skincare tool. The UV rays eat at your collagen and elastin! You can't get that back! Sunscreen protects you from pigmentation as well! My favorite is Tone Smart Sunscreen by Skinbetter. This is a tinted sunscreen that blends to your skin tone, what’s better than that!? It blurs redness, and has the perfect amount of glow without making you look greasy. Another option would be, Tizo 3 by Tizo. This is another tinted one that is completely matte and velvety on the skin! Everybody loves it!
So there ya have it, the products I would start with for a basic skincare routine. Start here and then just wait until next month for my blog on leveling up your skincare! There are endless combinations and options, but we’ll be chatting about all things masking, eye cream, hydrating spray, and exfoliators.
