Morning Skincare Routine

Happy Wednesday, friends! I haven’t done a skincare post in a while and since October I have switched up all of my products. As my moisturizers and serums started to run out, I decided it was time to make the switch to more non-toxic, vegan and safe products as much as I can. I went from using just a moisturizer to an actual routine that I follow every day and takes me at most, 5 minutes!

Last year I was introduced to the Monat brand. Monat is a vegan, non-toxic, cruelty free beauty brand offering wellness, haircare and skincare products. After using the products and falling in love with the results, I decided to become an ambassador as a market partner. Have not looked back on any of the products since starting to use them!

To start I use the C. Radiance Illuminating Serum which is 15% vitamin c serum and infused with antioxidants to help boost skins radiance right at the start of the day. Works for all skin types, improves skin texture and immediately makes your skin look brighter. I finished my first bottle in about 4.5 months and just started a new one. Just one pump is enough to cover your entire face.

I follow up with the eye smooth which is just the help my eyes need in the morning. Reduces the appearance of fine lines, helps with skin elasticity and it actually comes with a rose gold eye roller – so luxurious. Again, a little goes a long way and I’ve had my eye smooth since October using it morning and night and have barely made a dent!

I used up my first moisturizer bottle and just started using the Be Gentle line which is for sensitive skin. Another product that I use both day and night, this soothes your skin and provides a great amount of moisture. Using just a small dime size amount you’re able to moisture your entire face and feel refreshed to start the day!

After everything has set, my new favorite is the J.LO Beauty Star Filter complexion booster. It gives that subtle, all over glow so on days when I don’t want to wear makeup, I’m done with this step.

Cap everything off with the Summer Friday’s lip butter balm – perfect if your lips get chapped in the winter. I also use this at night before bed.

It’s important to note that sunscreen is part of my daily routine it just happens to be in my cc cream! The routine itself isn’t overly complicated which is really important for me and not time consuming. What type of products do you use in the mornings?

    Looks like you have a nice and simple routine!! I’m big on skincare in the evening but I ALWAYS forget to do it in the morning!! And I have no excuse…It’s only two steps!! And that is why I have dry skin 🤦‍♀️

    Your skin always looks amazing! I love your condensed morning routine. I tend to skip my morning routine (*facepalm*) because my nighttime routine seems to take forever. I need to condense mine!

    I’ve been thinking about getting a vitamin c serum because my face has been so dull with all of this cold weather. I’m glad to hear that you like this! And I love how simple your routine is, too! Nobody has time to be doing a long, drawn out routine in the morning!

    Finding a brand and products that work for your skin type always feels like such a win! I’m so intrigued by the new JLO line!

    I am glad that you are liking the Monat brand so much. I have heard good things about J Lo’s products and a setting spray is a must.

    Sounds like a great streamlined routine. Having one is so important. I just got some vitamin C and can’t wait!

    I just started doing a morning skincare routine myself. I added some eyecream and new moisturizer. This stuff looks amazing!! Is it okay for sensitive skin and rosacea?

    I haven’t heard of this brand. I will have to look them up. Love seeing what other people are using.

    You always have beautiful skin! I am all about vitamin c every day. I LOVE that Summer Fridays lip balm. I have always have one, and a back up! I cannot be without.

    Just these bottles alone must look so pretty on your counter!
