Hey, beautiful souls, Are you ready to unlock the secret to waking up with that enviable, radiant skin?

Well, I’ve got you covered with my fuss-free 5-minute night skincare routine that’s all about prepping your skin for a fabulous and radiant start in the morning.

It’s quick, simple, easy to follow, and — most importantly — works wonders!

Let’s dive in and uncover the secrets to a luminous and healthy glow each day.

Step 1: Double cleanse with an oil-based cleanser

First things first, say goodbye to the day’s makeup and sunscreen with the gentle yet powerful cleansing oil. I like to use the Biossance one.

Double cleansing is my go-to, as it ensures every last bit of makeup and sunscreen is gently swept away, leaving my skin fresh and ready for the next steps.

Step 2: Daily use cleanser

Once the makeup is out of the picture, I switch to my gentle daily cleanser. I use the Tatcha one. This step helps to rid my skin of any remaining impurities and keeps it prepped for the goodness that follows.

Step 3: Hydrating face mask

Feeling like a little extra pampering? Treat yourself to a hydrating face mask once a week — or whenever your mood desires! Perfect for a weekly treat or whenever my skin craves some extra love.

Step 4: Toner — the skin’s refreshing drink

A spritz of toner is like a refreshing drink for my skin. Laneige toner rebalances, hydrates, and preps my face for the serums to come. It’s a quick and easy step that makes a significant difference!

Step 5: Hyaluronic acid serum — hello hydration!

Hello, hydration! SkinCeuticals hyaluronic acid serum is a game-changer for my skin. It locks in moisture, keeping my skin plump, soft, radiant, and ready to take on the night.

Step 6: Retinol serum — the nighttime wizard

Retinol is your skin’s best friend. Well, I am a beginner to retinol, so I only use it twice a week. The Deconstruct retinol serum works its magic overnight, helping to reverse that sun damage while rejuvenating my skin.

Step 7: Eye love eye cream

The delicate eye area deserves some extra care. I gently dab on my Shiseido eye cream to keep those under-eye circles at bay and ensure the skin around my eyes stays hydrated and happy.

Step 8: Moisturize — locking in the goodness

Finally, I seal the deal with a touch of Clinique moisturizer. It’s the cherry on top that locks in all the goodness from the previous steps and keeps my skin supple and nourished overnight.
