Pre-Cleansers are used to breakdown pollutants and makeup before cleansing.
Dermalogica Pre-Cleanse if Tammy Faye is your mascara icon, you need this.
Bioderma Micellar Water gentle, non-oily, yet gets the job done. This is great for pros to have in their kits.
Cleansers are for both morning and night. I believe in and practice the double-cleanse which just means wash your face twice each time. I find this especially important at the end of the day.
Tata Harper Regenerating Cleanser
Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel
Exfoliators help rid the skin’s surface of dead skin cells, revealing a fresher, brighter appearance. Exfoliating allows a better absorption rate for serums, moisturisers and face masks.
Dermalogica Daily MicroFoliant
Skin Inc Oxy-Recharge Bubble Mask, I make all my models and mortals in my chair use this prior to makeup. They appreciate my bossiness.
MAC Lip Scrubtious (for lips) yes, lips need love too.
Toners unlike the toners of the 80s, a modern day toner helps with skin’s hydration and protective barrier.
Dermalogica (I guess you can see the love radiating through my skin, my models and my prose aka this shopping list) :
Multi-Active Toner great for all skin types.
Ultra-Calming for those with sensitive skin or active breakouts.
Redness Relief Essence for sensitive skin, rosacea, lupus flare ups - basically redness that needs calming.
Serums are packed full of ingredients to target specific needs such as Vitamin C for dull skin and scars, liquorice for redness, hyaluronic acid for hydration and more, serums
Skin Inc Daily Dose day and night
Eye Cream I prefer to apply prior to moisturiser.
Supergoop Bright-Eyed spf 40 with the SPF it’s a bit of a no-brainer for daytime. If your male partner sneaks it, you will know as it has a radiant glow to it as well. This is amazing for tired eyes where your caffeine is failing you.
Deciem Fractionated Eye Contour Concentrate (a serum texture, can be applied under an eye cream at night)
Laura Mercier Illuminating Eye Cream
Dermalogica MultiVitamin Powerfirm
Moisturizers lock in all the hard work that you’ve just done, helping your skin maintain hydration and balance.
Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream this is my hands-down fave that I use on myself and people in my chair. You’re welcome.
Sunscreen is your last skincare step before makeup.
Coola Sunscreen is fantastic as you can reapply over makeup throughout the day. Essential for aging smartly.
