My Morning Skin Care Rountine

I recently did a post about my nighttime skin care routine, so I figured I would share with you how I tackle skin care on a normal morning.

 
  •  The Yes To Blueberries Eye Firming Treatment is merely a preventative measure (at this time in my life) to help prevent/reduce wrinkles around my eyes.
  • I don't use the Persa-Gel 10 everyday, but it is a miracle worker!! Anytime I have a breakout or pimple, I simply rub this on it and the healing process is incredibly fast.
  • Yes To Tomatoes Daily Balancing Moisturizer is a product I use every single morning, and I can really see the difference it has made for my skin.
  • I rotate between the St. Ives Oatmeal & Shea and Lemon & Orange based on the time of year; in the fall/winter months (when I have drier skin), I use the oatmeal, and in the spring/summer months I use the lemon/orange for brighter skin.
  • The Yes To Grapefruit Dark Circle Eye Cream works wonders! Simply rub a dab under your eyes and after a few days, you'll see your eyes becoming a bit brighter.
  • Yes To Grapefruit Facial Scrub is another one of those game changers. I use this product first thing in the morning, in the shower, and it really wakes your skin up and brightens your face.
  • I love all three shades of the Yes To Carrots Lip Balm! Not only is it smooth and soft for your lips, but the colors aren't that drastic and perfect for an everyday look.
  • I have incredibly dry skin, but putting on the Eucerin lotion after my shower ensures that I have soft skin throughout the day. I also buy the SPF 15 for added protection from the sun.
 
What are some of the products you use for your skin daily??

My Nighttime Skin Care Routine

I think that skin care can be a tricky thing to tackle for some people; I know it definitely was for me! But thankfully, I feel like I finally have a pretty good routine for my skin. I thought I would share some of the products I use every night with you since for a long time, skin care was something that I really struggled with.

 
YTC Intense Hydration Night Cream // Burt's Bees Single Lip Balm //YTT Blemish Clearing Towelettes // YTB Face & Neck Oil // YTB Age Refresh Towelettes // Burt's Bees 4-pack // YTG Dark Circle Correcting Eye Cream // YTB Eye Firming Treatment

 

You can tell that I am obviously a very loyal fan of the Yes To brand; their products, in my opinion, are simply the best.
 
  • Yes To Carrots Intense Hydration Night Cream really is a game changer. You simply put some on your (clean) face right before hopping into bed for the night and the results are amazing! I was very skeptical about this product initially, because I assumed it would clog up my pores and leave my skin oily and greasy, and that I'd wake up with a face full of zits... Lo and behold, the exact opposite happened! This product leaves my face incredibly smooth, soft, and it is an extremely gentle product.
  • If you haven't tried Burt's Bees Lip Balms yet, you really need to! The pomegranate and grapefruit are my two favorite kinds, and they leave your lips so smooth. They also smell amazing!
  • The Yes To Tomatoes & Yes To Blueberries Towelettes are what I use at the very beginning of my nightly skin care routine to insure a clean face, with no excess makeup or dirt left on from the long day. I use the tomatoes kind when I have an acne flare up, and the blueberry is my normal, day-to-day wipe.
  • To be honest, I don't personally see much of a difference (at this stage in my life) from using the Yes To Blueberries Face & Neck Oil. However, I know that using this product is merely a preventative measure for later in my life.
  • The Yes To Grapefruit Dark Circle Correcting Eye Cream is a life saver! I, like many other people, get horrible bags under my eyes, because let's face it, getting the recommended 7-9 hours a night isn't always realistic. This product, however, does a great job of counteracting my (inevitable) bags.
  • Yes To Blueberries Eye Firming Treatment is another product that I consider (for me, at least) to be a preventative measure to reduce those pesky wrinkles later on in life.                                                                                                                                                                  
 
Here's to happy, healthy skin!!
