Skincare Routine

Hydration, barrier health, & photoprotection

I've always had dry, sensitive, eczema prone skin that is also prone to pigmentation AND congestion (not so much acne these days, but a lot of whiteheads and blackheads). Now with added aging! Emphasis on multitasking actives/multi-active formulations where possible. Basics like cleanser, SPF, and moisturizer, I keep as basic as possible in case I have a flare-up bad enough I have to drop all the actives for a week or so. For anti-aging, I just focus on preventing further damage by cramming as many antioxidants as I could into an AM serum. There are a small number of better-studied peptides in the regular routine, but I also have one day a week (at most) where I have an indulgent k-beauty ferment/peptide serum/essence extravaganza under a reusable mask. Acne control gel/differin/AA acid + bakuchiol on different days. Aveeno moisturizing cream all over face in the PM, Dry and Rough Skin solution on cheeks, nose and chin when I'm not exfoliating or using retinol, Baume B5 on irritated spots (as needed).
