I recently had an acne extraction, and my skin broke out terribly afterward. So I was stressed that I couldn’t sleep well, which only made things worse. I realized that during this time, it’s crucial not to overload my skin with too much nourishment but to keep it gently hydrated. So, I went back to the products that have never irritated my skin.
Day : toner – serum – suncreen
Night : toner – cream or mask pack – vaseline (lip)
Toner: I use the Santa Maria Novella Rose Water Toner from Italy. I spray it. It has a light, refreshing moisture that feels great.
Serum: In the morning, I apply the mary&may Blackberry Serum. It’s lightweight, hydrating, and free from any harsh ingredients.
Sunscreen: I’ve been using the Biore sunscreen that I’ve stuck with for a long time. It’s completely non-irritating for my skin and works best when my skin feels dry.
Night care: Once my skin started to recover, I began using the Kiehl’s moisturizing cream at night. After my excercise, I skip the cream and use the mary&may mask pack instead. It’s honestly one of those products I want to use forever.
With this routine, my skin has gotten much better. Of course, time played a role too, but all these products have been longtime staples for me and they’ve always suited my sensitive skin perfectly. For now, I’m sticking to this routine, and once my skin fully recovers, I’ll start trying new products again. There are so many creams I want to try, so I really hope my skin gets healthy soon so I can start reviewing them!
