Friday Favorites: Skincare Minis
10/20/2017
Happy Friday friends! I apologize for my absence this week. I had a pretty awful weekend last weekend and just couldn't bring myself to post this week. I actually wrote a post about it while it was still fresh but I'm just not quite ready to hit publish on that yet but a lot of you have already reached out and know what's going on and I appreciate the support and love! Because I didn't want to be completely dark this week I decided to start my weekend off by sharing some of my favorite skincare products. With the seasons changing and the weather getting drier, I definitely have to switch up my skincare routine and I've found some amazing products that help combat the changing seasons.
1 // I stumbled upon Sunday Riley and have since become obsessed. Good Genes is the perfect exfoliator, especially if your skin gets a little flaky in the drier months like mine, and Ceramic Slip does a great job minimizing my pores. Combine them both together and you get an awesome mask as well!
2 // I know this primer is a bit expensive but it's definitely my ride or die. I've tried almost every primer under the sun (thanks Sephora for giving out free samples) and I always come back to this one. It keeps my foundation looking flawless the entire day and gives me a nice healthy glow. I don't use it every day so it lasts me a REALLY long time but every time I do use it, I always get a compliment on how great I look that day.
3 // This has been (and will continue to be) my tried and true but when I found out it wasn't really recommended for people in their 30's (whomp whomp) I got some samples of some other oils and this one has quickly become my favorite. I use it mainly at night before I go to bed and it's amazing how refreshed my skin looks in the morning.
4 // Oh Kiehl's, you always make me so happy. I got this mask as a sample when they opened at Disney Springs and when I noticed my skin getting a little dry the other day I gave it a go again and I am so happy I did. My skin immediately felt hydrated and soft which is great but one of the things I love is how clean my face feels after using it. It really sucks out all the built up oil, dirt and toxins in your skin which also helps if you're prone to breakouts!
5 // I had a bad habit of picking and biting my lips my entire life. Needless to say, when the weather gets drier, they tend to dry out a bit too which then promotes my bad habit. I am a chapstick junkie so during the day it isn't ever a problem but overnight when I first wake up was becoming a bit of a problem. I picked up this mask mainly because of the price and reviews and I can promise you, I will continue to buy it even if the price goes up. My lips have never been smoother or softer and now I want to check out other Laneige products.
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend and hopefully I'll be feeling up to going back to my normal blogging schedule next week.

I am sending you a hug and lots of positive vibes. Stay strong!!
ReplyDeleteI just added that lip sleeping mask to my favorites and my basket at Sephora! I have the same issues with my lips and always hate how dry they get during the winter!
