Christene’s At-home Facial Routine and Products

My skin has been behaving nicely (knock on wood) since I've been social distancing. My goal with today's facial is to brighten and hydrate.  

Santal Dual-Action Enzyme Cleansing Powder

"An Ayurvedic blend of finely milled nutritive powders & naturally derived exfoliants to gently lift impurities and dead skin cells to reveal softer renewed skin." This cleanser gives an instant glow boost through the use of turmeric and gently manual exfoliation. It also contains a mild surfactant that helps to lift away surface dirt and impurities without stripping the skin.  

MS SKINCARE Enlighten Retexturizing Glycolic Treatment

"A powerhouse re-texturizing treatment combining glycolic acid, antioxidant-rich red seaweed and skin-firming hibiscus for instant, visible results." After removing this product, my skin had a refined, illuminated look— pores felt tight and right! If you want to reduce the appearance of your pores, smooth skin, and even your skin tone, AHA based product such as this are a great place to start. 

LAPCOS Daily Skin Mask - Aloe

All my facial steps so far included active elements to exfoliate and brighten my skin. Ingredients such as glycerin, aloe, and cucumber infused in this very juicy sheet mask help to moisturize, soothe, and balance out my skin. #PROTIP — save the extra serum to apply later. 

NANAKA Aura - AHA Brightening Cream 

This lightweight moisturizer is perfect to apply after my sheet mask. It contains glycolic, tartaric, and malic acids to refine skin. Skin is soothed, nourished, and moisturized through the use of aloe, shea butter, mango butter, and other skin-loving botanicals. 

Felicia’s At-home Facial Routine and Products

Today's facial goal is to nourish and restore. While we are all still mostly indoors, I'm doing lots of Retinol for day and night. So my facial reflects the need to balance everything out.

I'm starting with lit face wash. This glow-boosting face wash is called "photoshop in a bottle" because it uses neem oil and Tumeric to deliver next-level glowy goodness.

I'm always Team Toner, so my next step is Thayers Alcohol-free Witch Hazel Toner to balance my skin and prep for masking. (Not available on

GOLDE Clean Greens is like a green smoothie for the face. It contains chlorella, spirulina, and mango juice. The chlorophyll packed powder-to-gel formula leaves skin perfectly delivered from a world of trashity trash trash.

My eyes need all the love I can muster, so this week, we're doing with LAPCOS Collagen Eye Patch. You had me at COLLAGEN (also had me at $3)!

Because I'm extra extra, I'll second mask with LAPCOS ESCARGOT Damage Care. I'm still trying to get into the benefits of Snail Filtrate, so here we go. This mask also contains hyaluronic acid to plump and microalgae to protect against free radicals. And again, because I use so much Retinol daily, I like that with LAPCOS ESCARGOT Damage Care is formulated with Chamomilla Recutita (Chamomile) Flower Extract, which helps to calm irritated skin.

While the LAPCOS ESCARGOT Damage Care is the juiciest sheet mask I have EVER used (there's enough leftover essence to coat your neck, décolletage, chest, hands and arms), I still like to finish my at home facial with a good moisturizer. Bee's Moon Night Healer is thick, rich and protective. It's made from organic fruit, seeds, flowers, and trees that are rich in Rich in vitamins A, E, C, and F. What I love most is that Night Healer is that it helps prevent bacteria from thriving on the skin. And the glossy glow is visible from outer-space!
