AM Skincare
I wrote an entire post about my skincare journey a few months ago and stick 100% true to this routine! Drunk Elephant has completely changed my skin in every way possible and I am so grateful for it. I know that it is expensive, so this is a great time to hop on and invest in your skin! If you’re looking to just start out and dabble in some of their products, I recommend starting with the littles or their new ‘Get Even’ set. You can see how I implemented each product into my routine on my original blog post.
The most asked question I have gotten since this post is a form of ‘is this really worth it?’- y’all…look at the results! This ain’t no joke! I originally took before photos for myself, so I could see if it was working. Once I saw such transformational results, I felt obligated to share with you all! Remember that blogging is not my full time job, this is just a fun thing I like to do to share my tips and tricks with you guys. Since the Drunk Elephant post, I have actually had several other companies reach out to me to test their product and I politely decline. I wrote about DE, DE is what is changing my skin, so I’m sticking to it (for now at least!)
My AM process (in order)
Vitamin C Serum, Hydration Serum, Moisturizer, Eye Cream (more detailed post on that here)
Daytime Make Up:
Bare Minerals Conceler (color: Light)
Bare Minerals Tinted Mosturizer: This has a ton of coverage for a tinted moisturizer, as well as SPF 30. Bare Minerals is a brand that Drunk Elephant recommends because it is free of the suspicious six ingredients and shouldn’t make you break out. I have two colors- Buttermilk & Suede- I use Buttermilk when I don’t have any tan, Suede when I have a spray tan/some color and when I am in-between, I mix the two together to make my perfect blend.
More Coverage Foundation: Tom Ford Foundation Stick- I use this when I am wanting a full face of make up for an event at No.14 or a wedding etc (color: FAWN)
MASCARA
I 100% use three mascaras every single day- I layer them in this order:
Chanel Le Volume (not sold at sephora)
Bronzer/Highlighter/finishers
Bobbi Brown Bronzer in Golden Light
Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick online only (Color -Bronze)- I just use this in the crease of my cheek as a small contour
Charlotte Tilbury Photo Finish: This is an amazing product. I use it daily as a highlighter on the top of my cheek bone. I also mix it into my tinted moisturizer when I’m working from home and just do a tint and some mascara- It gives you an extra glow that is SO pretty.
Brow Gel- Use this everyday as my last step! I do it last to make sure no make up goes on top of it and looks cakey
PM Skincare
Also fully covered my entire PM skincare routine on my original skincare post here where there are much more in depth descriptions of why I use what I use and my favorite things about each product. Sticking to the same routine!
Remove makeup with Bye Bye Make Up, Cleanse, Serum, Moisturizer
CHEMICAL PEELS & MASKS:
Baby Facial- My favorite skin clearing mask - they have a new mini version which I love for those who are just trying it out!
Summer Fridays: My favorite moisturizing mask- Love this in the mornings with an ice roller (or an ice cube in a paper towel)
Alpha Beta Peel: If you have been following for a while, you know I used to be obsessed with Dr. Dennis Gross and while I kinda broke up with Dr. Gross for my new boyfriend Drunk Elephant, I still think these peels are some of the best out there (a GREAT time to snag with them being on sale)
Black Tea Facial: I have used this for almost 5 years! One of my fav masks ever that I almost always ask for for Christmas. This mask makes you feel ALIVE. It wakes you up and gives your skin the most amazing feeling. I forgot to ask for it for Christmas this year and ran out about a month ago and waited for the sale to buy- so you better believe this is in my cart rn to snag on sale! Cannot wait to get it back into my routine.
Drunk Elephant Retinol : use 2-3x per week mixed with one pump of hydra serum and 2-3 drops of Marula Oil NOTE: I never add retinol to my skin after using the Alpha Beta Peel or after using Baby Facial- Only on freshly cleaned skin and no masks- using the retinol is my form of chemical peel on nights when I use it!
