From time to time I like to switch up my skin care routine. Either what I am using quits working for me, I get a sample of something I like better, or I just want to try something new. I had been having a lot of issues over the last year. I knew I needed to go mostly natural.
So this is my current skin care routine!
In the mornings I use Angels on Bare Skin from Lush, followed by now argan oil under my eyes and any dry spots I may have and Imperials Facial Moisturizer from Lush.
In the evenings I remove my eye make up with Up and Up eye make up remover from Target followed by Ultrabland from Lush to cleanse and remove my make up. I follow that up with the now argan oil. Sometimes if I am really lazy and don’t feel like doing anything, I will at least take my make up off with a face wipe. My favorite are the Pacifica Coconut wipes that you can get at Target.
There are maybe 1 or 2 days a week where I will use the Foreo day or night cleanser with the Foreo for an exfoliation in place of the cleansers and follow up with the Imperials moisturizer. Also, I make my own lip scrub using coconut oil and sugar and do that at least 1 to 2 days per week as well.
Do you use any of these products? What is your current routine?

I always forget about lush until someone talks about it and then I want to go and try a bunch of new things. Angels on bare skin sounds like such a nice cleanser!
So I saw where Lush officially opened at the Summit – sooo now you won’t have to wait for them to send it!! Also, I’ve always wanted to try their stuff, so I’ll definitely be using your recommendations — I already love their bath bombs!!
It really is all about finding what’s right for you when it comes to skin care. I have a couple of different cleansers and exfoliators that I use, but nothing super consistent.
Love those things from Lush!
I don’t use any of these, but I always like to see what people are using.
i LOVE that argan oil…it’s the best brand and works so well!
I’ve been looking for a good eye make up remover. I need to try the Up & Up.
I always forget my Argan oil – it was helping my lines & dark circles when I was good at using it.
I switch up my routine here and there for the same reasons! I need to try that argan oil! 😀
I love the UP & UP remover and use it too…only one that doesn’t hurt my eyes! I use a handful of Lush products, but have never tried these. I’m intrigued!
If blogging has taught me anything – it’s that I need to up my skincare routine! Everyone has so many products and I’m all ‘uh.. drugstore lotion that I use on my legs and face’, lol. These look great!
I LOVE argan oil! i use it for everything- smoothing hair down, cuticles, my face, to blend with essential oils, etc. the best!!
Ooh I want to make my own lip scrub! What a great idea! I wish Lush was a little closer to me, they have the coolest stuff.
I’ve been using the Foreo with the nighttime cleanser for the past couple of days, and I can’t seem to get into it much. I’m a little hesitant with it, for one. My skin did NOT like the Clarisonic. With the Luna, I don’t really feel any bristles, and it’s more like a face massage. I wouldn’t use it at all, but the nighttime cleanser (I haven’t tried the day yet) doesn’t seem to do well for me with a konjac or with fingers. It only seems to want to cooperate with the Luna. I will say it leaves my skin feeling really smooth afterwards.
I just got an argon oil but I haven’t started using it yet. I need to! I really like the angels on bare skin, though I’ve only used it twice now. It hasn’t irritated my skin which is more than I can say for 99.8% of cleansers out there. I want to try the moisturizers next! I love the Full of Grace bar one, but it gives a greasy feeling (which my skin needs so I like it!) so I just use it at night. Generally don’t put anything on for day time, though I guess I should.
I keep going back and forth from basically nothing to all the products! I tried making my own face moisturizer (and leave-in conditioner) and neither was particularly successful. Now I have a couple products from Burt’s Bees, but I’m not 100% sold on either of those. I actually really liked a Neutrogina wrinkle cream I’d used for a while after Steph recommended it, but I never really replaced it after it ran out, and I don’t think it did anything for wrinkles – it was just light enough to not make me break out. So yeah, I have no solutions, only a long string of products I feel are just ok.
I need to try these Lush products. I’m having skin issues again and need to switch up my routine!
I love those Pacifica coconut wipes. I use them everyday to get my eye makeup off, and then I use a face wash (Pacifica, too – I love their stuff). I have been thinking of looking for some kind of under eye cream.
I love the Foreo! I have the one for dry skin. It’s light pink.
I love the up & up eye makeup remover – it’s one of my favorites for sure! Anything argan oil and I like!! Loving your current routine and glad it’s working!! xo, Biana –BlovedBoston
Dang it, I heard Lush is amazing…I need to try!! I love anything argan oil too…I’m having a Confessions withdrawal today, hope all is good and it’s a yucky day, predicting tornados tonight for us.. I know you and I both hate them!!!
I love Lush. They have great products. I love argan oil but it makes me break out. I have tried different brands but they all have made me break out. I think it’s just too heavy for my skin.
I really need to invest in some argan oil. I constantly hear so many good things about it. Thanks for sharing this, will have to check some of these products out!
I don’t use any of these, but I’m always interested in hearing what people (I “know”) say about them. I haven’t used Lush products in a while I think I may stop in there when I get some extra money sometime. I currently use what my derm recs and it’s working, but could use some extra moisturizer from time to time…even with this humidity in FL!
I love reading about what other people use on their skin. I need to try out Lush products! I have really dry skin, and CeraVe lotion is the only thing that works to moisturize my skin sufficiently. I also am obsessed with Paula’s Choice products- basically all of them.
ugh i have the worst non existent routine ever. i really need to take what i’ve learned from you and kathy and actually get some sort of a routine down
