🧿 Apparently my skin “glows” so here’s what I do
Okay so this is something I get complimented on A LOT 😭 (touchwood) : my skin.
People constantly ask me what makeup/base I use and the answer is literally… none 💀
I only wear lipliner + lipstick. That’s it.
No foundation, no concealer, no skin tint, nothing.
And thankfully I currently have:
- no acne
- no acne marks
- no pigmentation issues
- and my skin naturally stays pretty glowy.
So I thought I’d share what’s currently working for me:
• Gentle cleanser twice a day (I use FixDerma Skarfix-TX Face Cleanser)
• Serum (I use Minimalist Vit C 10% and The Derma Co 2% Salicylic Acid Serum, alternating daily)
• Moisturiser twice a day (I use Dot&Key Ceramides and Hyaluronic Barrier Repair Moisturiser)
• Sunscreen EVERY day (I currently Foxtale Golden Hour Glow Sunscreen SPF 50 but I will recommend Minimalist/ FixDerma/ The Derma Co)
• Not overdoing actives (I use The Ordinary AHA30% + BHA2% Peeling Solution)
• Keeping skincare simple and importantly, consistent
My skin type - Super dry with oily T zone
But honestly? The BIGGEST thing : PLEASE DRINK WATER 😭
I genuinely think people underestimate how much hydration affects:
- acne
- dullness
- overall glow
- and even how “healthy” your skin looks.
Like you’ve NO idea how noticeable the difference is when you’re consistently hydrated.
I do get random zits at times and that’s when I’m reminded to fix my water intake.
2 days back on track and the pimple disappears 🪄
P.S. Please ignore the “Prada” under my eyes. I’m working a night shift job and barely get enough sleep. On my notice period at the moment, so hopefully I’m able to fix this soon 🤞🏻
