Evening Beauty Routine

I have always had a bad habit of not washing my face well before I go to bed. Terrible, right? I'm still not perfect at being consistent with my routine, but I will say I have improved a ton now that I found these products. My face always feels SO much better when I've used my favorite products before I go to bed (and I know my older self will thank me)! So here's my nightly beauty routine...enjoy!

Step One: Charcoal Cleansing Bar

I LOVE this bar. I've been lucky to have pretty normal and not acne-prone skin for most of my life, but after I had Ian and my hormones were out of whack I had some patches I had to deal with. This bar cleared it up in about two days. It was amazing! Plus, it feels great since it helps pull impurities out of your skin. I highly recommend. I usually use this every other day or once a day, depending on what I have been doing that day.

Step Two: Routine Cream Cleanser

I love this cleaner because it's made for pretty much any skin type. It's not too heavy, yet my face feels clean once I'm finished using it. Added bonus, this cleanser goes a LONG way. I've had mine since October and still have a good couple of weeks left.

Step Three: Every Night PM Night Cream + Lustro Face Oil #2

I have recently been using the PM Cream and mixing two drops of the number two face oil to help keep my skin moisturized (the #2 also helps with elasticity of your skin--winning!), especially since the winter months are usually more tough on my skin. As the summer rolls around, I plan to switch over to the AM Night Cream since I won't need as heavy of a moisturizer. I never thought that I would really like the oils (and it seemed counterintuitive a bit--I thought it might make me greasy--not one bit!), but I will always have an oil from now on. Beautycounter has three to choose from depending on what your needs are from your face oil.

Added bonus and probably the most important detail of this post is that every product listed above is made with safe and non-toxic chemicals. Beautycounter has banned over 1,500 ingredients from all of their products, yet has not sacrificed a bit of performance. Every single ingredient used is listed on the website, so you never have to worry about any hidden ingredients or fragrances.
