Well, It is finally here. I am OVER 30. It is time I start a nightly Skincare Routine. I have searched HIGH and LOW for great quality products and a low maintenance routine and I am happy to share it!

The basics of starting a regimen: 

A skincare routine can include a number of steps, such as cleansing, toning, exfoliating, masking, treating, moisturizing, and protecting with SPF. I have learned the order in which you apply products is important, and you should generally apply them from lightest to heaviest- Meaning you will likely use water based first then oil- But read the label and instructions! 

I researched PLENTY and have very sensitive skin so I am confident in these brands, for sure. 

First, If you are looking to tighten and firm your face instantly (temporarily) you can watch me RAVE about Peter Thomas Roth | Instant FIRMx Temporary Eye Tightener for the link to Amazon, Just click here. 

Here is a Before and After photo of my Husband-- HE ABSOLUTELY loves when I use him as a guinea pig. If you would like to visit this product on Amazon, Just click here. 

This is literally like Botox in a bottle!

How I use it: I just mix it with my moisturizer to avoid the residue. However, You can just blot with a wet napkin and remove the residue as well! 

 Now, For my research on a night time skincare routine to slow down that aging, or an awesome anti aging routine- I LOVE THE ORDINARY PRODCUTS. 

You can find me raving about the Nightly Set when you click here on tik tok.  (This is a tik tok video and when you click this link the tik tok shop will come up just wait a couple of seconds for my video to appear and then click on it!) 

This set includes a full size Hyaluronic Acid, a full size Retinal, and a full size Rose Hip Seed Oil!

Keep in mind, all of this is applied after washing your face and before moisturizer. (I will get to that!)  

If you click the highlighted links- It will take you to Amazon (But they are sold separately on there) 

Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides) - 30ml is a hydration serum, offering instant hydration and plumping. The lightweight formulation contains five forms of hyaluronic acid, pro-vitamin b5 and ceramides, and helps replenish skin’s hydration levels, while also helping the skin retain moisture to replump dry, dehydrated skin. Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 gives softer, smoother, healthy-looking skin, while also promoting skin suppleness and elasticity and minimizes the appearance of fine, dry lines.

 Retinal 0.2% Emulsion - 15ml offers advanced age support, optimal for nighttime use. The high-strength retinoid formulation rapidly firms and smooths skin, while noticeably reducing the appearance of dark spots. It helps refine skin texture, while targeting uneven tone and boosting luminosity for brighter, more even-looking skin.

100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil - 30ml is a 100% plant-derived oil that promotes more supple, radiant skin, while also balancing the look of uneven skin tone. With a rich oil texture, it is ideal for evening use. 

 The Retinal is for only 1-2 times a week! Not Everyday! 

The next thing I added to my regimen is the Squalene Cleanser! If you click here it will take you to my tik tok (This is a tik tok video and when you click this link the tik tok shop will come up just wait a couple of seconds for my video to appear and then click on it!) 

This is an OIL BASED cleanser. This means you will rub the cleanser in between your DRY CLEAN HANDS until it looks like an oil, The Ordinary's Squalane Cleanser For Dry Skin is a gentle cleansing product formulated to target makeup removal whilst leaving the skin feeling smooth and moisturized. You should follow up with another cleanser that is not oil based or just rinse with warm water.

If you click here, It will take you to the Amazon Listing!

In order, It is Squalane Cleanser routine, Hyaluronic Acid, Rose hip seed oil and then Retinal (1-2 times a week)-- FOLLOWING up with the Moisturizer!

Here is my tik tok on The Ordinary Moisturizer!

Now, I am no skin professional. However, I am a HEAVY researcher. I am like this because I am sensitive to everything. Even Clinique breaks me out.
