Budget friendly low waste winter skincare routine

Budget friendly low waste winter skincare routine

Winter has come. Aka Florida’s coldfront is here, the temperature has dipped and its time to switch up my skincare routine. If you don’t have a routine, now is definitely a good time to start. The air is cold and dry and can be so harsh on your skin. I’ve never had too much of a problem skin but when I started investing time in my skincare it flourished. As soon as I stop my skin goes back to being dull. Now you don’t need a 10 step system, start with a simple 3 step and build from there. My routine is a requires a few more steps but all the products I use are budget freindly and low waste.

Tips on starting a skincare routine:

·         Find out your skin type

·         Look for a budget friendly brand to start out with

·         Find products with ingredients you are familiar with or at least you can pronounce

·         Don’t forget about hydration. Dring your water and eat nutrient dense foods.

 

 

This is what works for me and my skin. I have dry, combination skin.

 

Some changes I’m making to go from Summer/fall to Winter skin routine:

·         Heavier, cream based cleaners

·         Lights oils during the day, heavier oils during the night.

·         Sleeping mask for extra moisture

·         Giving my lips extra TLC with scrubs and balms

·         Heavier Body butters on the skin right after a shower

I mask once a week using a detox mask or brightening ask by geti cosmetics. I do this step after cleansing. These give my face an extra boost and detox my skin.

My routine is pretty flexible and my products tend to change but this is my default routine currently and my skin has been glowing lately despite the dry air.

Everything in my routine is budget freindly and the brands practice low waste practices which is so important to me!
