Skincare profile: surface oily and dry underneath, early 30s, combination, sensitive, acneic skin
"Since starting this anti aging regiment, I have much less need to do masks/exfoiliants since I am doing that practically every day. But I will use philosophy microdelivery peel every once in a while and the boscia black mask every once in a while. like...once a month or once every 2 months."
Current ritual
1) Cleanser: Bare Escentuals Purifying Facial Cleanser
She says "Non foaming cleanser that cleans deeply but doesn't strip too badly. its not as soothing as milky cleansers but its a good bridge product for the oily. I still can't cleanse with something that would leave me without that CLEAN feeling."
2) Serum: CSI Vitamin C + 12% Youth Serum
She says "Great brightener, clear serum, no orangey stuff to deal with."
3) Sunscreen: Elta MD UV Clear SPF 46
She says "Very light sunscreen-a zinc oxide based physical sunscreen, goes on clear."
OR EltaMD UV Physical Broad-Spectrum SPF 41
This one is lightly tinted
4) Moisturizer: CSI Super Hyaluronic moisturizing cream
She says that this cream is "non greasy" and gets "no breakouts" from using it.
OR Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream
She says "for super dry days/nights which I am continually shocked I am having as I get older."
5) Eye Cream: CSI Recovery Eye Cream with Vitamin K & Arnica
This is her response to this eye cream "smells amazing. I'm pretty sure nothing really works to help eyes but this one has some vit. k for dark circles and its super soothing and moisturizing without being too heavy. No milia."
Additional Products Sarah uses:
6) Reviva labs 5% glycolic acid cream
"nothing has done more for keeping my face smooth and bright as this cream. There is also a 10% formulation I will eventually move up to."
7) CSI multipeptide antiwrinkle serum
"on the lines between my eyes and marionette lines. this thing works. 6 peptides, hyaluronic acid. it firms and tightens."
THANKS FOR SHARING SARAH!
