Morning Routine

In the morning, my skincare routine begins with the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser, a gentle yet effective cleanser that helps remove impurities without stripping my skin. After cleansing, I apply SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF, a potent antioxidant serum that protects against environmental damage and improves overall skin tone. Following this, I use SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense, which targets stubborn dark spots and hyperpigmentation, helping to even out my complexion over time. To hydrate and protect my skin, I apply the Avene Cicalfate+ Protective Cream, which soothes and nourishes while forming a barrier against external aggressors. Lastly, I use the Elta MD UV Clear Broad-Spectrum SPF 46 sunscreen to shield my skin from harmful UV rays and maintain a healthy skin barrier throughout the day.

Nightly Routine

In the evening, I start my skincare routine by cleansing my face again with the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, and excess oil accumulated during the day. After cleansing, I apply SkinCeuticals HA Intensifier, a serum enriched with hyaluronic acid that hydrates and plumps my skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Next, I moisturize with Avene Cicalfate+ Protective Cream once more to provide overnight nourishment and repair. As a part of my nighttime routine, I use Tretinoin 0.05% cream, a prescription-strength retinoid that helps to stimulate cell turnover, smooth skin texture, and minimize acne and signs of aging. This potent treatment is essential for my skin’s renewal process while I sleep, ensuring that I wake up to a revitalized and rejuvenated complexion.
