Choosing the right skincare formulas for your skin-type is crucial to maintaining healthy & beautiful skin!
When choosing the right products, it’s important to analyze your skin.....
Is your skin normal? dry? oily? combination? sensitive?
If you're unsure of your skin-type, check out my blog, "How Do I Determine My Skin-type?"

oil-based cleansers thoroughly clean the skin—even remove the heaviest of makeup—while leaving the skin feeling supple and soft. They can also be used to double cleanse the skin (first cleansing the skin with an oil-based cleanser, followed by another cleanser).

Regardless of your skin-type, be sure to choose an alcohol-free facial toner!
Hydrating Toners
Who It’s For
normal, combination, oily and/or acne-prone skin
What It Is
removes excess dirt, oil & debris, while hydrating the skin and improving moisture retention
My Recommendation
Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Toner
Price: $16.00

Exfoliating Toners
Who It’s For
dry, oily and/or acne-prone skin
What It Is
contain ingredients, such as AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) or BHA (beta hydroxy acid) that remove dead skin cells, while providing a deeper cleansing of the skin. These exfoliating ingredients work more effectively than scrubs and offer additional benefits, such as: anti-aging benefits and preventing/treating breakouts.
My Recommendation
Mario Badescu Glycolic Acid Toner
Price: $18.00

pH-balancing Toners
Who It’s For
dry and sensitive skin
What It Is
help to recalibrate the skin’s pH level, leaving the skin calm and balanced. The optimal pH level for skin is about a 5.5. If this skin’s pH is too far off-balance, this can make it easier for harmful bacteria to thrive.
My Recommendation
Acwell Licorice pH Balancing Cleansing Toner
Price: $18.00

FACIAL MOISTURIZERS
Combination/Oily Skin
Although oily skin retains moisture better than other skin-types, it’s still important to properly hydrate the skin. It’s best to look for a lightweight, non-greasy and oil-free moisturizer. A water-based moisturizer is a great option for those with oily skin, since it will hydrate the skin, without leaving the skin feeling “heavy” or “greasy”. For those with combination skin, focus on applying moisturizer on the drier areas of the face, and less on the oilier areas.
My Recommendation
Embryolisse Emulsion Hydra-Mat
Price: $30.00

Dry Skin
Moisturizers that contain ingredients, such as jojoba oil or shea butter, will help soothe and moisturize the skin. Those with dry skin will want to use a facial cream, instead of a facial lotion, since creams are more hydrating. If you have very dry skin, consider looking for a moisturizer with hyaluronic acid!
My Recommendation
Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream
Price: $30.00
Link: https://seph.me/30O1eCK
Sensitive Skin
Look for a hypoallergenic, fragrance-free moisturizer. Ingredients such as aloe or chamomile are excellent for soothing sensitive skin, as well!
My Recommendation
Clinique Moisture Surge 72-Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator
Price: $54.00
Link: https://seph.me/30Ork8u
Normal Skin
Look for a light, non-greasy moisturizer that will hydrate the skin, without being too “heavy”.
My Recommendation
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré
Price: $16.00

EYE CREAMS
Did you know that the skin around the eye area is 40% thinner, more susceptible to irritation and is also the least elastic part of the face?
One of the first signs of aging are the lines around the eye area
The skin around the eye area loses moisture about 50% faster than the rest of the face—making it the driest area on the face!
Therefore, using an eye cream is one of the most important steps in a skincare regimen. Unlike facial moisturizers, which aren’t formulated for the sensitive area around the eyes, eye creams contain ingredients that help minimize dark circles, puffiness, and fatigue.
My Recommendation (daytime)
Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment

This moisturizing eye treatment gently moisturizes the eye area, without migrating into the eyes. It contains natural ingredients, such as avocado oil, that provide essential daily hydration & protection.
