Morning Skincare:
- AHAVA Purifying Mud Soap ($10 at Ulta) as a gentle face cleanser.
- Caudalie Pulpe Vitaminee Anti-Wrinkle Serum ($62 at Sephora)
to fight wrinkles and provide an antioxidant protection shield against free radicals and pollutants as I go through the day. - Ole Henriksen Total Truth Vitamin C Eye Creme SPF 15 ($45 at Sephora) It's one of the very few natural eye creams that I can find with SPF, and it happens to feel really nice :)

- EOS Organic Lip Balm Sphere in Sweet Mint ($3 at Target)
- JUARA Rose & Willowbark Blemish Free Mask ($35 on skinstore.com) as a spot treatment for zits, white heads, and black heads (it works just as well as toothpaste doesn't leave skin red and over-dried)
- On Sunday nights, I give myself a face some extra attention to brighten up for the week ahead. I wash my face with my Clarisonic Mia in Pink ($125 at Ulta) and use a JUARA Turmeric Antioxidant Radiance Mask ($35 on skinstore.com) before applying my serums and moisturizers. I also give the rest of my body some extra attention by swapping my aloe and essential oil spray for something more intensively hydrating, the Tree Hut Shea Body Butter in Coconut Lime ($7.50 at Ulta).
