I've written about my pregnancy beauty routine and winter skincare before on the blog, but after my most recent Instagram post many of you asked about what products I use - so here's a list in the exact order that I use them!

AM:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cleanser - I wash with half a pump of this then pat my face dry.
Eye serum - I split a pea size of this serum on both eyes, patting it lightly under and around my eyes.
AM lotion*with* sunscreen - I put two pumps of this all over my face and neck.
(some days) 1% hydrocortisone ointment - I have a pesky eczema patch on my chin that still flares up sometimes - if it's angry that day I'll pat a light layer of hydrocortisone ointment over it.
Undereye concealer - Using the sponge applicator I apply this in an upside down triangle shape under my eyes. I wear the shade medium.
Eyebrow pencil - I lightly line the bottom of my eyebrows (which I pluck and trim myself) with this pencil then brush and shape them. I wear the shade dark brown.
PM:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cleanser - I wash with half a pump of this then pat my face dry.
Glycolic acid pads - I wipe one of these pads all over my face and neck, then let dry about 1 minute.
Eye serum - I split a pea size of this serum on both eyes, patting it lightly under and around my eyes.
PM lotion - I put two pumps of this all over my face and neck.
And that's it! Other than the glycolic acid pads and eyebrow pencil, pretty much everything you can find at your corner drugstore! Although I usually just buy everything on Amazon since it's usually the cheapest there!
Which products have made the BIGGEST difference in my skin? Definitely the glycolic acid resurfacing pads and my AM face lotion with sunscreen. I had stopped using the pads while I was pregnant, and just started using them again last week and seriously already see a huge difference in my skin! With this routine I can leave the house only wearing undereye concealer (and sometimes still need a dab of the same concealer on the corner of my chin that has that damn eczema patch)! Now I only wear more makeup if I want to get dolled up, not out of necessity!
