I haven’t written about my favorite skincare products in a while, meaning there are plenty of new ones but also some classics that have stayed in the running. A little about my skin, I have combination skin, I suffer from hormonal acne at times, and I can get inflamed or irritated skin due to stress and excessive travel, which, as you know, I travel lots!

This article features my favorite face wash, scrubs, toners, moisturizers, serums, sunscreen, lip balms, body scrubs, and lotions!

My Favorite Face Wash

Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser - I use Cetaphil for nighttime washes; I always bring it when I travel; it removes makeup pretty well and is good for dry & combo skin!
Superfood Cleanser by Youth To The People - I use this cleanser when I don’t have any current breakouts; it cleans my face well, doesn’t leave it dry, and prevents acne while also being hydrating, and is good for sensitive skin!
Differin Daily Deep Cleanser - I use this to prevent acne or when I have acne. I really love this cleanser its a smooth acne cleanser, but it isn’t as hydrating, so after I use it, I always moisturize extra, but it does wonders on breakouts and is a staple for me!
La Roche Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Face Wash - I usually use this in the summer since I live in South Florida. The humidity is through the roof, and it makes my skin oily, but I don’t want to dry it out either, so this is a perfect balance!

My Favorite Face Scrubs

Tatcha Rice Wash Cleanser - I am obsessed with this scrub; well, it’s technically not one, but for me, it is. It has little rice grains in it that exfoliate my face and make it so soft; I am obsessed. Also, it says it’s a limited edition now and that better not be true, I have used it for a year now, and I pray it doesn’t leave the shelves of Sephora any time soon.
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Scrub - I love this scrub; it helps prevent breakouts or eliminate them when I have them. I usually bring this scrub when I travel, especially in the summer!
La Roche Posay Ultra Fine Scrub - This scrub is so silky, exfoliates and doesn’t dehydrate, leaves my face rejuvenated, and a little goes a long way! This is my daily go-to exfoliant.

My Favorite Toners

Tatcha The Texture Tonic - This is a great toner to even out textures and impurities. The bottle is honestly really big and lasted me a long time. It helped even out my skin tone, and I loved it.
Glow Recipe Watermelon Toner - Out of all of the toners I have used, this one is my absolute favorite. It makes my skin hydrated, removes impurities, goes on like silk, smells amazing, and gives you a glowy look. I use this toner daily!
La Roche Posay Acne Toner - I use this during breakouts; it’s a bit drying, so don’t overdo it, but this toner works magic on acne; I highly recommend it.
Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Toner - This toner is a great daily toner for those with dry, combo, or sensitive skin. It goes on so smoothly and leaves your skin refreshed and hydrated.

My Favorite Moisturizers

Avène Light Moisturizer - This is my daily moisturizer. It’s perfect for sensitive skin and provides the perfect amount of moisture for my skin. Works beautifully under primer or with sunscreen etc!
Tatcha The Water Cream - This moisturizer goes on like literal silk. It’s smooth, moisturizing, and lasts a long time.
Youth To The People Superfood Moisturizer - I would say this moisturizer is tied with Tatcha above. To me, they are very similar and do the same things, but I love them both. A super light whipped moisturizer that leaves my skin supple and soft.

My Favorite Serums

Glow Recipe Strawberry Serum - This serum does wonders for my skin. It helps with blemishes, uneven skin tone, and texture. When I first started using it, it felt a little spicy on my skin, I don’t know a better way to describe that, I think because of the salycilic acid etc., that’s in it to fight acne. If you have really sensitive skin, I would test it on a skin patch sure to make sure it doesn’t irritate you. It works wonders for me, and I love it so much.
Glow Recipe Dew Drops - I absolutely love these drops. They are perfect for sensitive skin and they provide a dewy glow that’s is honestly magical. Its such a smooth and silky serum, I am obsessed. It works great under primer and with sunscreen!
First Aid Beauty Repair Oil - This is my favorite oil. It might seem insane to put oil on your face or when you have acne, but this oil is my savior. Whenever I have breakouts, dried out, or stressed skin, I use this oil before bed. It soothes my skin, replenishes it, and I always travel with it.

My Favorite Sunscreen

Supergoop Glowscreen - I have tried the unseen, and honestly, if you have oily skin and don’t mind a matte look, the unseen is great. I prefer a dewy and glowy look which is why I love the glowscreen. I have tried sunscreens by Tula as well and still find the glowscreen by Supergoop to be my favorite!

My Favorite Lip Balms

Lano Strawberry 101 Treatment - I use and bring this lip balm everywhere. It smells so good and keeps your lips hydrated all day. I always have one in my purse or travel bag!
Laniege Lip Glowly Balm - My favorite scent is gummy bear. It smells so good, and even though the others are good, gummy bear, to me is the best.

My Favorite Body Scrubs

Dove Exfoliating Body Polish (Crushed Macadamia and Rice Milk) - I am obsessed with this scrub. It’s a light scrub that smells delicious and exfoliates gently. I always have this scrub in my shower, it’s a must.
Tree Hut Shea Sugar Scrubs - My favorite scents are watermelon and coco colada. These scrubs give a deeper exfoliation and are also more hydrating than the dove scrub. I use these less often, and a little goes a long way.

My Favorite Lotions

Summer Fridays Body Lotion - This lotion smells like actual heaven. It’s a soft scent that’s perfect for everyday wear and is hydrating. It’s a lighter lotion, not too thick, not greasy at all, and leaves your skin smooth, hydrated, and glowy.
Bum Bum Cream - This bum bum cream is actually my favorite thing on Earth. It smells like vanilla goodness. It smooths out skin, hydrates, and leaves skin silky, glowy, and soft. I bring this stuff literally everywhere.

My Guilty Pleasure

Avène Thermal Spring Water - I spray this on my face daily. I am obsessed with it for no reason, but it makes me happy and my skin happy, so it’s a win-win.
