VIDEO: Skincare Routine for Combination Skin – Winter 2018

Combination skin can be one of the most difficult to tackle, because typically you may be oily in your T-zone but dry or normal in other areas of your face. Luckily in the winter, my skin is not as oily but can feel pretty dry at times. I also struggle with hormonal acne occasionally, and clogged pores.

I’m sharing the skincare products that I use for both my morning and night time routines. I’m always on the hunt for the best products that fade acne scars, dark spots, but that don’t dry out the skin. I opt for more natural skincare products, and try to use products that are not harsh on my skin. I’m also focused on anti-aging, and struggle with dark circles and redness.

Morning Routine Products Used:

• Michael Todd Charcoal Detox Cleanser
• PIXI Glow Tonic
• Paula’s Choice Resist Daily Hydrating Fluid (review here)
• Paula’s Choice Resist C-15 Super Booster
• ColorScience Total Eye

Night Time Routine Products Used:

• Simple Micellar Make-Up Remover Wipes
• Michael Todd Soniclear Elite Cleansing Brush (review here)
• Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
• PIXI Glow Tonic
• Paula’s Choice Resist Daily Hydrating Fluid 
• Paula’s Choice Resist C-15 Super Booster
• Aveda Tulasara Wedding Masque Eye

• Neutrogena Daily Leave On Mask
• Volition Beauty Silt Gelee Detoxifying Mask (review here)

I also wanted to share a mini review of the new Colorescience Total Eye, which is available for pre-sale starting today, and officially launching February 1st. 

It’s a 3-in-1 undereye treatment that protect skin with SPF 35, corrects immediately with a neutral peach tone, and addresses long term under eye concerns such as lines, wrinkles, and dark circles. It has a cooling metal applicator that helps sooth puffy undereye bags, and blend the product into the skin. It also helps prime skin for smooth makeup application.

I’ve been loving my results from using the Total Eye, and instantly see the color correction in my dark circles. It also does not settle into fine lines, or crease throughout the day. I apply it under my foundation, and then apply the rest of my makeup. The results shown above are after makeup of course! Typically, even with makeup my dark circles can peak through, but with using the total eye they are completely corrected!
