Skincare Indulgence
Taking care of your skin is an extremely important ritual that many of us have discovered and perfected over time. Whether you have a daytime routine or both a day and night routine, we know it can be consuming yet satisfying. There are some days when you feel like you have all the time in the world to pamper your skin and that brings me to my personal ritual of indulgence.
We all know good skincare starts with a great cleanser. I like to use Urban Skin RX’s Resurfacing Vitamin C Cleansing Bar. This bar comes with two sponges and has a beautiful lather. It helps to exfoliate the skin and brighten your complexion for an overall glow.

After washing I will do a facial steam to open up my pores and give my skin some extra moisture. I use Vanity Planet’s Aira, an ionic facial steamer. You can choose to use this with or without essential oils depending on what you want to address in your skin. Don’t forget that distilled water is best used to keep up the longevity of your device.
After my pores are opened it’s time to use a face mask. The Joanna Vargas Glow to Go Mask Set is one of my favs and it comes with five masks: the Eden Instant Lift Face Mask, Forever Glow Anti-Aging Face Mask, Dawn Face Mask, Twilight Face Mask and the Bright Eye Hydrating Mask. All of these masks are amazing for making your skin feel hydrated and glow-y.
Next, I move on to toning. Glamglow’s SUPERTONER is an exfoliating acid solution which helps with clarifying and unclogging pores. This toner is especially good for acne prone skin. Just saturate a cotton pad with a quick sweep over my face and I’m good to go!
Usually when pampering my skin I like to do it at night, so I will use my nighttime serums. The next step in my routine is to use Peter Thomas Roth’s Pro Strength 10% PHA Exfoliating Clarifying Liquid. This helps to improve uneven skin tone and makes skin more radiant overall. A little goes a long way with this so just don’t oversaturate the cotton pad you use to apply this to your skin.
Last but not least its time to moisturize! Moisture should always be the last and arguably best step of your skin routine. I use Urban Skin Rx HydraBalance Instant Moisture Infusion. This moisturizer has Hyaluronic Acid and Squalane which helps to intensely moisturize your skin.
These are just a few of the products that leave my skin happy and healthy with a beautiful glow. Remember pampering your skin is a wonderful way to de-stress after a busy week or just to have a relaxing and enjoyable day :)
