LETS TALK SKINCARE, SHALL WE!?

I am so proud to present very special guest contributors for this post: @BeautyEmpireYYC, who will provide a glimsp into their current skincare favorites from moisturizers, cleansers, eye creams and serums

When some people hear the word skincare they assume it’s just a moisturizer and an SPF product. We can assure you that it’s much more than that; Skincare is a process that takes time. You have to find what works well with your specific skin type and we guarantee you that these results will help you in the long run. The following are our absolute must have products in order to guarantee that our skin is properly prepped for our day!

BOBBI BROWN

hydrating eye cream

An eye cream was something I thought was not necessary in my routine, but does it ever make a difference! I wanted something that I can incorporate in my day and night routine, something that was very hydrating but absorbed into the skin really quickly and the Bobbi Brown hydrating eye cream does it for me. This product contains avocado oil, which helps moisturize the very delicate eye area while filling in the fine lines, making this the perfect candidate to have in your daily routine!

FIRST AID BEAUTY

For the days where I have very little time to get ready, this eye cream is my go to. It acts as my eye cream and a colour corrector, which saves me a step when I'm in a rush to get out the door. The metal applicator is very cooling under the eyes, and helps distribute the product evenly without tugging on my skin. The formula is very lightweight with a salmon tint to it, and for those who don't know salmon tones help counteract the dark blue and gray tones we all have thanks to those sleepless nights. So bonus!

SKINCERITY

When we’re asleep, the skin is not! It uses this time to repair and replenish itself from all the different surrounding we are faced with on daily basis. By adding this product to your nightly routine, it’s not only going to help your skin repair itself to it best ability, but also act as a breathable barrier. It seals in your natural moisture and allows your skin to breathe naturally at night. Using it alone will deeply hydrate your skin but using it with a moisturizer beneath and Skincerity on top will hydrate your skin to its full potential. This product also minimizes pores, fine lines, wrinkles, and can be used on all your skin, not just your face. You can purchase this here!

ORIGINS

Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask

After a long week, the skin needs to be replenished and deep treated with a mask to make sure it is restored to its best state. The Origins Charcoal Mask will do wonders for your skin. This mask will give your skin the ultimate detox by targeting deep into your pores and blemishes giving you the ultimate deep cleanse. Once the mask is on, it has a clay-like feel. As it hardens, you can see the oils and toxins extracted while visibly seeing the product work in front of your eyes, giving you instant gratification! Suitable for all skin types, this is one of the best masks on the market that can give you the "spa treatment" at home.

SHU UEMURA

Depsea Hydrability Moisturizing

When it comes to skin care, we tend to keep it traditional with a cream and we don’t really associate skincare with different technologies other than the basics of what we know. This skin emulsion is a lot thinner than majority of moisturizers on the market but that’s what makes it the best candidate to have under your makeup. The silky formula penetrates deep into the skin, moisturizing it, and acting as a barrier from heavy makeup. This helps with the longevity and overall appearance of your skin.
