My 2022 Picks: Skincare
It’s been a slower year on my skincare experimentation journey, however I have compiled a list for you guys of some great finds!
So find below some of my favorite skincare product discoveries made this year!
Paula’s Choice Peptide Booster Serum
Alright, I admit I tried this one after Hailey Bieber did a Youtube video with Hyram and admitted she’s “obsessed with peptides”— and admittedly, I have no idea what they do or what they are supposed to improve, but I will say, this year has taken a dive in skincare experimentation on my part as I feel I have really discovered my routine and know what works best for me. However I have also gotten lazier in this last year in my skincare discipline, so we’ve struggled a bit more with acne and the pih (post inflammatory hyperpigmentation) effects that come with that.. and I will say, after consistently using this serum AM and PM for 1-2 weeks, I noticed a significant difference in my pih, skin tone even-ness, and brightness!
La Roche-Posay Triple Repair Moisturizer
This purchase came after I decided applying the La Roche Posay Cicablast Balm AM and PM everyday was getting a little too expensive… I was looking for another REALLY thick, ultra-hydrating moisturizer and came across this one. Technically it is meant for body, and it is in fact VERY thick, so be wary if you do not struggle with dryness. However I have been a desert dweller for about 2 years now, and my skin LOVES the thick stuff :)
COSRX Snail Mucin Sheet Mask
In my continuous search for hydration, hydration, hydration, I was on the lookout for an extremely hydrating sheet mask for those self-care wine nights at home, and these masks add so much hydration and plumpness back to my skin! The mask comes with soooooo much product, that I allow the mask to sit until dry, and then squeeze out all the excess from the bag remaining and use that as a serum after the mask!
