How My Morning Skincare Routine Saved My Skin

My morning skin care routine has slowly fine tuned overtime as I have learned more about aging prevention, how to have healthy skin, and with a busy schedule. I often do not have time for a long drawn out process in the morning so I like products that have multiple uses and work quickly to get my skin ready for the day.  I have combination skin that is oily one minute and dry the next, so these are the products that I have found work best for me.

• CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser: I always start with a facial cleanser to remove any dirt or bacteria that might be left on from the night before. I love this specific cleanser because it is gentle on the skin yet powerful and can be used everyday. I have pretty sensitive skin so I like a cleanser that can do it all without causing breakouts or irritating my skin.
• Ole Henriksen Banana Bright Eye Creme: I recently got turned onto this product after seeing many beauty influencers talk about it. The banana bright eye creme helps to reduce signs of aging and reduce dark circles and puffiness under the eyes. After several shifts in a row I know this is definitely something I struggle with! It also acts like a primer creating a flawless base for concealer. This product helps to keep my eyes looking bright and refreshed every morning.
• The Ordinary Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%:  This is a vitamin C serum I to use to brighten and reduce signs of aging.  It is less potent than direct vitamin C, so its easier on the skin and does not cause any irritation.  I apply 2-3 drops into my palms and put all around my face.  I feel like it has helped make my skin more glowy and blemish free.
• Tatcha The Water Cream:  I can not say enough good things about this product.  It works like a moisturizer to hydrate the skin without leaving it greasy or sticky.  It also uses anti aging superfoods to help refine the skin.  I use a small amount on the fingers (and a lot goes a long way) and massage onto my face and neck.  I always make sure to bring my skin care products down to my neck, since the neck is an area that looses elasticity with age.

These products always make my mornings a little better by providing my skin the much-needed brightening, hydration, and radiance that it needs!  If anyone has used these products or has products that they think I should try let me know in the comments below!
