Ingredients to Build your Routine Around
I am 35 years old with two kids. I have dry / normal skin. My top concerns are fine lines & wrinkles, preventing aging, dullness, and dark circles. When I started my skincare routine, all I knew was that I started to notice fine lines & wrinkles and wanted to buy new products for βanti-agingβ.
After a lot of research, here are my Top 5 Ingredients with proven benefits for 30s Skin:
1. Retinol
Retinol is a powerhouse for wrinkles. It is a synthetic derivative of Vitamin A. It alters the behaviour of aged skin cells. It smooths skin texture, enhances radiance and treats aging. Retinol can be irritating to skin, so build up your tolerance gradually starting with a lower percentage and only 1-2 days per week.
DRUNK ELEPHANT - A-Passioni Retinol Cream
Murad - Ready, Radiant, Retinol
SKINCEUTICALS - Retinol 0.3
SUNDAY RILEY - Luna Sleeping Night Oil
If you need an alternative to retinol because you have sensitive skin or you are pregnant or breastfeeding, bakuchiol is a good plant-based all natural alternative to retinol or rosehip oil is high in Vitamin A.
HERBIVORE - Bakuchiol Anti-Aging Serum
BIOSSANCE - Squalane + Phyto-Retinol Serum
The Ordinary - 100% Organic Cold Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil
2. Vitamin C
A potent antioxidant that helps reduce skin inflammation, irregular pigmentation, and promotes healthier collagen production. It neutralizes free radical damage and great for AM routine.
DRUNK ELEPHANT - Time to Wake Up Duo
SUNDAY RILEY - CEO 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum
SKINCEUTICALS - C E Ferulic With 15% L-Ascorbic Acid Vitamin C Serum
VERSED - STROKE OF BRILLIANCE Brightening Serum
3. Exfoliate / AHAs
Exfoliation is about boosting cell turnover. You should do it twice a week. Use different acids like lactic acid and glycolic acid. Build up a tolerance. You can use toners, serums, or creams.
Kate Somerville - Liquid ExfoliKate Triple Acid Resurfacing Treatment
SUNDAY RILEY - Good Genes All in One Lactic Acid Treatment
The Ordinary - Lactic Acid 10% + HA
FARMACY - Honeymoon Glow Serum
4. Peptides
Peptides preserve and boost collagen production. Peptides are short chain amino acids that act as building blocks for proteins such as collagen. It improves the appearance of firmness and wrinkles. Extensive research supports that peptides improve skin function and appearance.
The Ordinary - ''Buffet''
OLAY - Wrinkle Correction Serum with Vitamin B3+ Collagen Peptides PAULA'S CHOICE - Peptide Booster
5. Hydration
In your 30s your skin tends to get dehydrated. Hydration will plump up skin. Add a hydrating toner, facial spray, hyaluronic acid serum.
The Ordinary - Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5
**BONUS** SPF
Never forget you sunscreen βοΈ

Quick visit to the Farmacyπ―
Iβve been stoked to try this brand because I love alllll things honey, so this little set seemed like the perfect intro! Sadly, Iβm not overly impressed by any of the 3 items.
FARMACY - Honeymoon Glow Serum weβll start here because Iβm so stinking bummed about this. Upon first use, I noticed that the dropper is broken, and I have the most difficult time getting the serum out of the jar. Iβm definitely not going to be able to use the whole bottle, simply because I canβt get it out. The little bit of serum I am able to use, I donβt love. It stings my face for quite a while after applying, and I canβt really tell if there have been any results. I think Iβll stick with SUNDAY RILEY - Good Genes All in One Lactic Acid Treatment for a similar chemical exfoliation.
FARMACY - Green Clean Makeup Meltaway Cleansing Balm this was my first foray into a cleansing balm and Iβm so sad that they only gave me enough for one cleanse! I donβt feel entirely qualified to give a review of it, but I did enjoy my one use!!
FARMACY - Honey Potion Renewing Antioxidant Hydration Mask Iβve tried this out a couple of times and it has a pretty wild sensation! Whenever you apply it, it feels more like a honey, but upon adding to the face, it turns into a cream and gets warm. Honestly so fun! I have felt like my face was hydrated and refreshed after each use, so I would purchase this one again!

Glowing skin, no makeup β¨
As much as I love playing with makeup some days I just enjoy giving myself a break and taking some extra time on my skincare routine, a good skincare routine is the best foundation π
This is my current routine for extra dewy, glassy skin:
βοΈ LANEIGE - Cream Skin Refiner Iβve reviewed this before, and if youβre a regular around here youβve already heard me gush about it, itβs great and I love it. Itβs super hydrating and helps strengthen skinβs natural moisture barrier. Perfect to get that dew.
βοΈ cocokind - Glow Essence Essences are lightweight boosters that target specific skin concerns, this one prevents dehydration in the skin which means moisturized skin = healthy, glowy skin!
βοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Rose Water Face Dew My favorite mist to get hydrated, dewy skin. Itβs filled with ingredients my skin loves like rose-hip seed oil, castor oil, rose water and radish root ferment. Itβs amazing.
βοΈ cocokind - Revitalizing Eye Cream Cocokind gifted me their new eye cream and Iβve been trying it for a little less than a month and itβs lovely! Itβs a lightweight texture cream, it has a metal tip applicator to soothe the under eye area which is great to depuff too. Some key ingredients include Persian silk tree to help fade dark circles and puffiness, hibiscus flower acids rich in vitamins C and E, and oat extract helps lock in hydration and reduce redness.
βοΈ cocokind - Daily SPF Can you guys tell I love Cocokind? Their SPFβs been the key to my glow lately! Itβs incredible, it is lightweight, mineral-based and protects against UVA and UVB rays, blue light and pollution damage. It leaves a beautiful dewy finish. I have combination skin, you might it find it a little too dewy if you have oily skin.
βοΈ EGYPTIAN MAGIC - Healing cream Can I get a drumroll for this multipurpose baby please? I love using this as lip balm, on my cuticles, on dry skin and as a highlight on the high points of my fave π
And thatβs it friends! Six easy steps to radiant, glowing skin no makeup needed β¨

Rosen Skincare Faded Max Routine
β¨Rosen Skincare Faded Max Routineβ¨
Iβve been seeing Rosen Skincare products everywhere on my feed recently, so I was excitedto try their faded max routine which was curated to help those dealing with breakouts and hyperpigmentation.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Super Smoothie Cleanser - slightly gritty and pasty gel cleanser with strawberry powder, lemon powder, and raspberry powder to gently exfoliate and brighten the skin. I love this cleanser. It has such a delicious sweet fruit scent and it leaves my skin hydrated and not stripped post cleanse.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Tropics Toner - watery toner that contains kojic acid, pineapple, and sodium hyaluronate to hydrate and brighten dull skin. One of my favorites from the set as it instantly absorbs and hydrates my skin. After using it twice daily for a couple weeks, I noticed my skinβs complexion looking brighter and more vibrant.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Bright Citrus Serum - brightening treatment serum containing 20% vitamin c to revitalize dull skin and fade dark spots. I really liked this serum as it absorbs almost immediately. It tingles upon application and leaves a bit of a sticky finish but that disappears once you layer something over it.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Tropics Moisturizer - thick paste like moisturizer formulated with kojic acid, jojoba oil, mango butter, pineapple, and sodium hyaluronate to help fade dark spots and hydrate the skin. I didnβt like this moisturizer as the texture was a bit gritty and it was to heavy for daytime use. I ended up just using it in the evenings but my skin didnβt really look much brighter.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Rose Water Face Dew - bi-phase mist with rose water and rose hip seed oil to hydrate and brighten the skin. I quite liked this mist as it was refreshing and hydrating. I replaced this as my daytime moisturizer some days since it does leave a bit of an oily finish.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Charcoal Mask - bentonite based clay mask with charcoal and tea tree oil to unclog pores, absorb excess sebum, and reduce the size of acne. I didnβt really like this mask much since it was difficult to spread and remove. It also left my skin dry, and I didnβt see any major difference after the masking session.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Enzyme Scrub - physical exfoliant made up of walnut shell powder, pumpkin powder, lemon powder, lemon oil, jojoba seed powder, and frankincense to remove dead skin cells. This was a gentle physical exfoliant that wasnβt to abrasive on the skin. It left my skin feeling soft afterwards but I donβt really care for physical exfoliants that much anymore.
βΆοΈ ROSEN SKINCARE - Break-Out - blemish spot treatment that uses zinc oxide, apple cider vinegar, and peppermint oil to fade bumps overnight. This was a decent spot treatment that helped with acne breakouts. Smells like toothpaste. It doesnβt exactly work overnight but give it a couple days and your blemishes will reduce in size.
Overall, there were hits and miss for me with the set but my complexion has gotten brighter and more even toned with consistent use of the fade routine. My favorite products out of the set are the smoothie cleanser, tropics toner, and bright citrus serum. Have you tried Rosen skincare? If you have, what are your favorites from them?

Lit From Within Glowwwwβ¨π
I recently started using these 4 products for almost 2 weeks now & Iβm never turning back!!!
β’YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Superfood Air-Whip Moisture Cream
β’YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Superberry Hydrate + Glow Oil
β’YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Mask
β’Glossier. - Futuredew Oil Serum Hybrid
I have never had such a consistent glow to my skin since starting these! I get complimented daily!
I love these products so much.
The two Youth To The People creams absorb so quickly & donβt leave it feeling like you have all this junk on your face either. My previous moisturizer would always pill up once I went to put anything else on my face & these donβt do that!
The Glossier serum is also extremely light & doesnβt clog pores which is something I was worried about initially. It comes out in this pinkish color but it doesnβt turn your skin any other, it just gives you a dewy look.
& the Youth To The People serum is amazing of course! It literally gives me this glow like no other! A little bit goes a very long way, as with most of their products.
Now I just need to clear up the little bit of texture I have left in my chin! I blame it on the fact that I went out quite a bit the last week (church, grocery shopping, random errands) & of course wore a mask the whole time! Resulting in some maskne π’
But that is just temporary! As is every blemish!
I definitely recommend trying these products guys!
They are HOLY GRAILS if there ever was one!

Dream Eye Cream β¨π
When youth to the people released their new eye cream this year, I was dying to try it out but didnβt want to commit to the full size. Thankfully they had a rare gwp offer with the sample right when I was going to stock up on my moisturizers ππΌ
YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Dream Eye Cream With Goji Stem Cell and Ceramides
What is it? yttpβs dream eye cream is formulated for nighttime use to hydrate, firm, and brighten the eye area
Key Ingredients:
οΏΌgoji stem cell: claims to stimulate skin to reduce the appearance of wrinkles
οΏΌTHD ascorbate (vit C): yttp loves this form of vitamin c that is stable and oil soluble
οΏΌsuperberry blend: like the dream oil and dream mask, the dream eye cream contains YTTPβs nourishing superberry blend with hydrating maqui, prickly pear, and squalane
Product deets:
This eye cream is completely fragrance free and has a thick texture that absorbs well.
The Verdict?
This is the first yttp product Iβve tried that I wouldnβt repurchase. The feel of the product is amazing and it does hydrate my eye area very well, but especially at this point in my life (Iβm 28) I donβt need a lot from eye cream beyond hydration and their YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Superfood Hydrate + Firm Peptide Eye Cream , which is $13 less gives me plenty of that! I am so grateful I got a sample of this so I could ease my new product fomo and then go back to my standby!
β¨ One thing to note - other than the added Goji stem cells and the fragrance removed, this eye cream has a very similar formulation to the YOUTH TO THE PEOPLE - Superberry Hydrate + Glow Dream Mask If your eye area isnβt sensitive to gentle fragrances, but you want the intense hydration and vitamin C of the dream line, you could use the dream mask around your eye area.

PM routine
Hereβs one of my current PM routines. have dry skin. My main concerns are hydration, anti aging, and closed comedones with the occasional breakout
philosophy - Purity Made Simple Cleanser cleanse! Cleansing is my least favorite step in my routine. But I am enjoying this cleanser because it makes removing makeup easy. I need a cleanser that removes all makeup, especially eye, without irritation of my eyes. Itβs a creamy consistency which I like because it doesnβt dry or strip my skin of natural oils. It gets the job done
GOOD MOLECULES - Niacinamide Brightening Toner toning! I only use one toner per night but this is one product that I often rotate with a few others in my collection. I am a big fan of this toner. Made with niacinamide it works to lessen the look of pores and brighten skin. I love the consistency of this toner, itβs slightly more viscous which makes it fun to apply. My skin feels and looks smooth when I use this often.
CAUDALIE - Vinoperfect Radiance Serum The Brightening Solution I am mainly using this product just to use it up. I wish I could say that I love it but to me itβs just meh. Itβs supposed to be a highly concentrated serum that combats dark spots, and boosts radiance. I havenβt noticed much difference that I can attribute to this product really. The scent is a little off to me as well, it kind of smells like leaves, dirt, and nature π donβt ask me why. At 79$ itβs not something I would repurchase.
FARMACY - Honeymoon Glow Serum chemical exfoliation. Iβve been using honeymoon glow in place of TLC Framboos because I got a set around the holidays. I do like this serum quite a bit. It provides chemical exfoliation in the form of AHA/BHA gentle flowers is blend. I do notice good results when I use this. It fades fine lines and wrinkles, and loosens dead skin cells. It also has the added benefit of hyaluronic acid which helps the skin retain moisture which is something I appreciate since I have such dry skin. At 58$ it is a more affordable option to TLC Framboos and I think itβs a good place to start. However in the end I still prefer TLC
Earthen eye cream. Iβve been using this cream which is said to reduce dark circles by changing the surface reflection of skin and improving hydration to combat the look of dark circles. My dark circles are generic and unfortunately no cream will change their appearance so this did not work for me. it does keep the skin nice and hydrated which is appreciated.
LANEIGE - Water Sleeping Mask
a good but simple moisturizer. I apply over everything to lock in serums and boost skins hydration overnight. Infused with a high concentration of mineral water to deliver high doses of moisture. I enjoy this one!
SJΓ SKIN - Happy Honey Oil A gorgeous oil to lock it all in! ILOVE it.
EARTHEN SKINCARE-Clear #1 Eye Cream
I can't express my love for these two gorgeous products:
corporesanctum Rebalance Me Aloe Vera Sleeping Mask
corporesanctum Rebalance Me Aloe Vera Moisturising Ampoule
The sleeping mask is a dream (no pun intended). With Aloe vera and Green Tea, it's perfect for rebalancing my skins pH, soothing and boosting collagen synthesis all whilst I sleep. The moment I apply, my face instantly feels like it has had a lift. The instant hydration hit from it is unreal. Plump, hydrated, glowing skin is a huge benefit I've noticed from using this.
The Ampoule is amazing! I add two pumps to my regular moisturiser and I firmly believe that this is huge factor in keeping my skin hydrated and breakout free. I love the smell, I love the way it makes my skin feel and I love the way it makes my skin look. This is one I'd have to restock before I even run out because I'm not sure what I'd do without it.
For those who aren't familiar with what an ampoule is, it's a supercharged serum with a higher concentration of active ingredients. This is my first time using an ampoule and it really won't be my last. πΏ.

It is so soothing And has such a light honey smell which I LOVE! β£β£β£

Herbivore Faves
Another brand Ive been really impressed with lately is Herbivore.
Herbivore is completely natural and doeasnt even use any preservatives in their products or unnecessary fillers. I used to always think all natural skincare, or skincare made with completely natural ingredients and actives, were pointless and ineffective because the concentrations of actives you would need from a plant to actually work on your skin would need to be huge. I actually found amazing results with Herbivore despite that, and I honestly dont know how they do it. They choose the right plants to extract and press and make the best concoctions to give you results they promise.
Having combo-oily skin Iβm especially impressed with Prism and Bakuchiol (sadly discontinued) serums in improving cell turnover and gently exfoliating. The combination of these two products made my skin feel and look bright and radiant, and unclogged my pores and got rid of my congestion.
I was also pleasantly surprised with Moonfruit, being a pretty thick cream, it actually worked with my combo skin. I think its because I use it at night and I kind of need the extra love at night, and I just love how my akin looks and feels in the morning. So fresh and dewy.
So impressed with this brand, cant wait to try more
HERBIVORE-Bakuchiol Anti-Aging Serum
my skin does not need a moisturizer. In lieu of a moisturizer, Iβve been experimenting the last 2 weeks with serums, oils, balms, and sleeping masks. On nights I use a balm, I donβt use a sleeping mask and vice versa.
As the first step after cleansing, I always used the Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Serum to help boost the effectiveness of the products to come.
Then I go in with a serum of my choice and then end it with a balm or sleeping mask. Sleep Tight from Farmacy beauty is running dangerously low so I just got this balm from Eve_lom because the texture is a little thicker, I would even skip a serum before using this. Another mask ive fallen in love with is the Glow Mask from Youthtothepeople β it truly leaves my skin infused with moisture, and I wake up to an amazing, dewy glow.
I want to encourage you all to join this nomoisturizer challenge with me - even for those of you with dry skin!! Just give it a try for a couple days and see how your skin feels. I want to know how it has worked for you!!!
