Hello, friends, and welcome back to Stylishly Good Vibes! I’m back on the blog this week to share five of the skincare products I cannot live without. If you didn’t know, skincare is my jam. I love it even more than I love makeup. You have to create a good foundation for your makeup, and that begins with your skincare routine!
I’m basically a test dummy when it comes to trying different skincare products. I think that’s the best way to find the coolest ones to share with you.
So, let’s get started!
Ursa Major Golden Hour Recovery Cream
This face cream is the best, especially if you have combination skin that tends to get dry and flaky when the temperature drops. With sea buckthorn and calendula, this cream protects, hydrates, and prevents premature aging. Plus, Ursa Major is a clean skincare brand, so you know when you use their products, you’re not putting any unsafe chemicals into your body.
How I Use It: Each night, I will take a dime-sized amount and pat it onto my face. I make sure to focus on my eye area and the area around my mouth, which tend to get dry the quickest.
Biossance Squalane + Tea Tree Balancing Oil
This balancing oil blends squalane, which is crucial for hydration and moisture, and tea tree, which is awesome if you suffer from mild to moderate acne. Despite the fact that “oil” is in the name of this product, it’s really not an oil at all. It’s lightweight and doesn’t make the skin feel greasy. Biossance is another clean skincare brand to check out if you are into that kind of thing!
How I Use It: This oil is part of my morning routine, however you could use it at night, too. I take about 3-4 drops and pat onto my face.
Flora & Bast Age Adapting Facial Serum
I’ve been super into CBD skincare as of recently because I’m convinced it’s the secret to anti-aging. Whether it is or isn’t, I’m obsessed with this facial serum. It contains 350 mg of CBD, which as you may know, helps with inflammation — inflammation caused by acne or other skin conditions. Essentially, this facial serum helps your skin recover and restore itself in a natural way. I’ve noticed a big difference in skin clarity and texture since I started using this.
How I Use It: Each morning and night, I pat on 5-10 drops of this facial serum. I will usually follow up with a facial massage if I’m feeling extra boujee.
Sand & Sky Australian Pink Clay Mask
This is one of those face masks that I think everyone should have stashed away in their medicine cabinet — it’s that good. I found out about this product on Instagram and decided to give it a try. It did not disappoint! This mask is great if your skin is having a moment or it just feels dull. I use this multiple times during the week. It leaves the skin feeling soft and supple, plus I think it helps clear up blemishes quicker.
How I Use It: I apply a thin layer to my face every other day. I let it sit for 15-20 minutes. Sometimes I will even use it as a spot treatment overnight.
Timeless Skin Care 20% Vitamin C Serum
This product is one that I found out about on The Strategist, which you need to follow if you don’t already. This is a great dupe for the Vitamin C serum from Drunk Elephant. Vitamin C serum is one of those products that I think everyone in their 20s should start using. It can clear up dark spots and imperfections, plus it helps to build up lost collagen. WIN!
How I Use It: Each morning, I take 3 drops of this serum and pat onto my face. I follow up with sunscreen. Note: If you use a Vitamin C serum, YOU NEED TO USE SUNSCREEN. Although, you should be wearing sunscreen everyday!!!
Well, that’s all I have for you this week!
Until next time!
