Eye cream, Face Cream, Repair Cream… Oh my!

Are you overwhelmed by over-the-counter skincare products? You’re not alone. Walk into any beauty store, and feast your eyes on aisles and aisles of cleansers, moisturizers, and MORE! Where do you start? What’s right for you? And which of these “essential” products are truly essential? Don’t worry, we’ve got you. We dug deep into our department stores and found the last list of skincare products you’ll ever need.

Makeup remover
WHY? Other skin products will not work if you’re putting them on top of make-up. When your face is clean, it’s ready to receive the benefits from other skin products you’re about to put on.
Cleanser
WHY? A good cleanser will remove any leftover residue or small traces of make-up. You’d be surprised to find just how much make-up may be left over after you wash your face!
Exfoliator
WHY? As we get older, our skin is more prone to have build-up and an uneven surface. Exfoliators can penetrate this build-up and prevent breakouts or wrinkles.
Sunscreen
WHY? UV rays from the sun can cause early aging or even worse – skin cancer! Many makeup products and moisturizers offer sun protection. Don’t leave the house without it!
Moisturizer
WHY? Dehydrated skin can make you look tired! Use moisturizer daily and nightly on your face and your neck.
Eye gel or cream
WHY? The area around the eyes is thinner and more sensitive than the rest of the face and is more prone to the effects of aging. An eye gel or eye cream will leave your skin looking more radiant, healthy, and younger.
Face mask
WHY? To treat yo’self! A mask can be used 1-2 times per week and can leave you feeling rejuvenated after a long and stressful work week!
