You don’t have to break the bank to achieve beautiful, blemish-free skin. You do, however, have to know which products work best and where to get them at the best price. But where do you even start? This (fairly) short list consists of cleansers, masks, moisturizers, acne treatments and wrinkle-reducers, so you can get a glimpse of everything you need for a glowing complexion. Start here and your skincare searching will become a breeze!
- Nature’s Way Coconut Oil – What can’t coconut oil do? I keep a jar of this coconut oil by my sink to remove the day’s foundation and eye makeup.
- Pacifica Purify Coconut Water Cleansing Facial Wipes – If I’m traveling or just relaxing on the couch at night and want to get the bulk of my makeup off, these wipes are a dream come true. Note: you’ll still need to wash your face with water and a cleanser, but this is a great start.
- Sibu Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser – This has always been and always will be my favorite face wash! It offers a deep clean without stripping skin of moisture. When I run out and don’t have backup on hand, I absolutely notice the difference! My skin practically begs for this stuff.
- Kiss My Face Pore Shrink™ Deep Cleansing Mask – It’s a clay-based mask with lemongrass, tea tree oil and cloves. This formula is perfect for oily, acne-prone skin.
- Andalou Naturals 1000 Roses Rosewater Mask – Because it’s so good at calming skin, I use this when my face is acting up and looks a little red. Plus, the scent…so amazing!
- derma E Hydrating Mist with Hyaluronic Acid – After washing my face, I douse my skin with this refreshing mist. Anytime I can use one product as a setting spray and facial toner, I’m all for it!
- derma E Evenly Radiant™ Day Crème SPF 15 – It’s lightweight and feels silky on skin, so you don’t have that heavy layer underneath your foundation all day. I also love that it has broad-spectrum SPF, because many moisturizers do not.
- Andalou Naturals Deep Wrinkle Dermal Filler – I’ve tried a gazillion wrinkle creams, but this is the first to not irritate my skin AND actually work to fill in fine lines.
- derma E Tea Tree and E Antiseptic Crème – For anyone suffering with skin blemishes, this crème will be your saving grace. I use it as a spot treatment and leave it on overnight.
- Reviva Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamin C Ester and DMAE Cream – The gel consistency is great for oily skin, but the formula is also an effective anti-aging solution. You can apply this anytime, but I prefer to use this as a night cream so I can wear SPF during the day.
- Avalon Organics Exfoliating Enzyme Scrub in Lavender Luminosity – The lavender smell is a sweet, smooth awakening in the morning, which is why I keep this in the shower.
