Need A New Morning Skincare Routine?

Lizzo does her hair toss and checks her nails, but my morning skincare routine is a little more involved…we can’t all be Lizzo! Like a lot of women of a certain age, my skincare routine has grown as I’ve aged. In a fevered attempt to slow the aging process, I have tried countless products and gadgets over the years, and I’ve got regimen that’s currently working pretty well for me if I do say so myself. So without further ado, here it is!

Skoah Kleansing Lotion

I *only* wash my face in the morning if I slugged the night before, and I *only* use Skoah Kleansing Lotion.

Dr. Brandt Antioxidant Spray Toner

Full disclosure, I’m not married to this toner. I’m almost done with the bottle and I think I’ll try something else next. It’s perfectly fine, I just don’t love it.

SK-II Facial Treatment Essenes

The essence, the myth, the legend. I finally broke down and bought SK-II and I am HOOKED.

Glossier Super Pure

Like about a billion other people, I added niacinamide to my skincare routine this past year.

Glossier Super Glow

You don’t need me to tell you to add a vitamin C serum to your morning routine, but add a vitamin C serum to your morning routine.

Glossier Super Bounce

This post, and my morning skincare routine, are not brought to you by Glossier, I swear! I bought these three serums (Super Bounce is a hyaluronic acid serum) as a set, and I really like how nicely they play with each other and my other products.

First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Barriar Cream

I’m weird when it comes to facial moisturizers. I already pay a lot for toners, essences, serums, and eye creams, so when it comes to moisturizers I don’t want to shell out big bucks. I found this First Aid Beauty moisturizer at Marshalls, and it’s great!

Sunday Riley Autocorrect Eye Cream

I am a huge fan of Sunday Riley products! Never met one I didn’t like, including this eye cream.

Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides

Ok this may not technically count as a beauty product, but I’m including it in the roundup. I take a scoop in my morning coffee (and my afternoon coffee) and if nothing else it makes me feel better because I’m putting up a fight.

I’m almost out of toner, and Super Bounce is running low, so if anyone has any recommendations I’m all ears!
