The Skincare Series

Minimalist Skincare Routine

August 11, 2018

Alright, I’ve been asked repeatedly for a simple skincare routine, a skincare routine for a minimalist, a skincare routine for the lazy girl, a skincare routine for any way you want to slice it. And I’ll be honest, I didn’t know if I could pull it off. My normal skincare routine is super intense and product heavy. But there are days when I don’t have it in me to do it all and I realized that I already had my very own lazy girl skincare routine for certain days, products and steps that I do even when I feel like doing nothing.

The Lazy Girls Guide to a Skincare Routine. With details on how to pick the right products from Philadelphia lifestyle blogger, Hairspray and Highheels

So I’ve paired these routines as much as I possibly can and separated them into day and night. It works out to about 7 or 8 products total.

Morning Skincare Routine

So for your morning routine, you’re going to want to cleanse, tone, treat (depending on skin needs), eye cream, and, moisturizer (you’ll want one with SPF to pair your routine down). 

Nighttime Skincare Routine

For your nightly routine you’re going to cleanse, tone, exfoliate, eye cream, moisturize. 

This can work out to about 6/7/8 products depending on your need. Your cleanser, toner, and eye cream are going to be the same for both day and night. If you go with a hydrating serum your can toss that into your nighttime routine and have extra moisture. Your moisturizer can be the same for both day and night if you want the additional step of using a straight spf on it it’s own in the morning, but to keep it simple I would plan for two moisturizers.


I’m going to go ahead and share some of my favorite skincare products in each category so you have options from affordable to luxury depending on your budget.

FAVORITE CLEANSERS

PCA SKIN Creamy Cleanser // CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser  // La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Cleanser


FAVORITE TONERS

PCA SKIN Hydrating Toner  // [KLAIRS] Supple Preparation Unscented Toner


FAVORITE SERUMS

PCA SKIN C-Quench Antioxidant Serum // Vichy Minéral 89 Daily Skin Booster Serum // Vichy LiftActiv 15% Pure Vitamin C Serum Brightening Skin Corrector // PCA SKIN Hyaluronic Acid Boosting Serum


FAVORITE EYE CREAMS

PCA SKIN Ideal Complex Eye Cream  // Pixi Beauty 24K Eye Elixir with Gold Collagen Energizing Peptide Serum


FAVORITE EXFOLIATION

Pixi skintreats Glow Tonic // I’m only putting one option here, a chemical exfoliant. This is a must-have in your skincare routine and not only does the glycolic acid gently exfoliate skin to reveal healthy, glowing skin underneath, the ginseng improves circulation to keep your skin looking great. 


FAVORITE DAY MOISTURIZERS

Olay Regenerist Whip Light Face Moisturizer SPF 25 // La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair Face Moisturizer // Cetaphil Fragrance-Free Daily Facial Moisturizer


FAVORITE NIGHT MOISTURIZERS

“The black and white photo challenge started as “The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice. To stand in solidarity with the women we have lost. To show that one day, it could be their picture plastered across news outlets with a black and white filter.” - @beelzeboobz⁣
⁣
In 2019, Turkey had nearly 500 RECORDED femicides. ⁣
⁣
The Global Burden of Armed Violence 2014 database shows that between 2007 and 2012, on average, 60,000 women were killed violently around the world. ⁣
⁣
A total of 87,000 women were intentionally killed in 2017. More than half of them (58 per cent) ̶ 50,000 ̶ were killed by intimate partners or family members, meaning that 137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day. More than a third (30,000) of the women intentionally killed in 2017 were killed by their current or former intimate partner ̶ someone they would normally expect to trust.⁣
⁣
“Since the pandemic, violence against women especially domestic violence has intensified” @unwomen⁣
⁣
While the majority of homicide victims are men, women are the primary victims of intimate partner homicide, including homicide–suicide events.⁣
⁣
Drug dealers get longer sentences than rapists. ⁣
⁣
Breonna Taylor’s murderers still haven’t been arrested. ⁣
⁣
Globally, 1 in 3 women experience physical or sexual violence mostly by an intimate partner⁣
⁣
#WomenSupportingWomen looks a lot like putting in work to actively combat and also recognize violence against women. It looks like voting for political figures who don’t want to take the rights of women away. It looks like donating to causes that actively fight for these women. ⁣
⁣
So let’s #challengeaccepted that. ⁣

Would you ever say the things you say to yourself Would you ever say the things you say to yourself to another woman? ⁣
⁣
I absolutely wouldn’t tell a woman that her thighs were too big. Or that I hated her stretch marks. Or her belly stuck out too far. Or that her arms were fat. ⁣
⁣
So why the frick am I ok saying it to myself? Sometimes we all need a little reminder when we look in the mirrror...⁣
⁣
Speak to yourself with grace. If you find yourself experiencing negative self talk ask yourself if you’d say it to someone else. If the answer is no.. full 🛑 ⁣

Wanna hear some random things about me?! ⁣ ⁣ 1 Wanna hear some random things about me?! ⁣
⁣
1️⃣ My hair has been over 50 different colors. Some of them all at the same time. It’s naturally blonde though⠀⁣
⠀⁣
2️⃣ I went to an all girls catholic high school and was asked not to take Spanish 3 because I talked too much 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
3️⃣ I have two cats, a dog, and a husband that I’ve been with since I was 16 years old⠀⁣
⠀⁣
4️⃣ I’m a double ♊️ which means I’m talkative, fiercely loyal and endlessly curious. Paired with being an enneagram 8 and it probably also means I’m a little bit psycho 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
5️⃣ I listen to murder podcasts to fall asleep.⠀⁣
⠀⁣
6️⃣ Playing with makeup is my happy place. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
7️⃣ I love the hottest hot sauces that most people won’t even smell. ⠀⁣
⠀⁣
8️⃣ I recently became a plant mom and it escalated quickly⁣
⠀⁣
9️⃣ If I won the lottery I’d buy a tiny house in the middle of nowhere ⁣
⠀⁣
🔟 Creating this community has been one of my favorite things about life. What will you find here?! Easy beauty tips and tutorials, attainable fashion, endless Amazon finds, but also the UNCOMFORTABLE stuff: pap smears, depression, anxiety, the effects my husbands addiction had on our marriage, eating disorders, struggles with fertility, body acceptance, and being comfortable in your own skin. I try to keep it as real as humanly possible. Being so vulnerable all of the time isn’t the easiest thing but if it helps just one person feel less alone, I’m good! ⠀⁣
⁣
🌟 I’m so glad you’re here! I’d love to hear a fun fact about you!! 🌟 ⁣

Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thin Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. ⁣
⁣
We’re about two hit two years since Jim entered rehab and I’m forever proud of the changes he made and the man he has become⁣
⁣
For the person reading this who loves an addict. It’s changed you, I know. It made you a little harder to reach. It made getting out a bed a little rough. It’s isolated you from groups of friends. Your hearts a little more closed off then it once was. Your trust is a little bit broken. You’ve felt more alone then you ever have. You’ve felt judged. You’ve felt betrayed. You’ve felt at fault.⁣
⁣
Whether you’re past it or still in the trenches. I want you to know some things. ⁣
⁣
I need you to know that it’s not your fault. I need you to know that you could not have done anything differently. I need you to know that you can’t cure it. You didn’t cause it. And you can’t control it. ⁣
⁣
Most of all I need you to know that it gets better. I need you to know that it’s ok to feel happiness again. It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to take care of your. ⁣
⁣
And you’re not alone. ⁣
⁣
I promise you that there’s a light on this side of the tunnel just waiting for you to walk through. And that light doesn’t mean it’s over, it’s just there to guide you. Because every day could be a battle. ⁣
⁣
I stayed for the battle. But that’s not the only way. If you need to leave that’s okay too. Either way. You have to get to that light. ⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Go to a meeting yourself. Grab a book (Co-Dependent No More, was helpful for me) listen to a podcast. Get yourself a village. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF⁣
