**If you haven't seen my last post about my morning routine, check it out ^^^
Evenings are when I unwind and repair, layering calm over actives, and comfort over exfoliation.
iUNIK Calendula Complete Cleansing Oil (200ml)
This cleansing oil performs beautifully, emulsifies well, removes every trace of waterproof mascara, and rinses clean. Unfortunately, the strong ylang-ylang scent is a dealbreaker. If they ever reformulate it without the fragrance, I’d repurchase in a heartbeat.
CERAVE Cream-to-Foam Cleanser (236ml)
Reliable, simple, and gentle although I personally prefer the original Foaming Cleanser. This one does the job, especially as a second cleanse, but doesn’t quite excite me.
HADA LABO Shirojyun Premium Whitening Lotion Light (170ml)
Same as in the morning, hydrating, calming, and lightweight. At night, I sandwich it before and after tretinoin to buffer any irritation.
CORDES VAS Tretinoin 0.05% (25g)
A prescription classic. The cream formula is straightforward and effective, no scent, no frills. I apply it every other night, and while results have been steady, sensitivity has crept in lately.
LA ROCHE-POSAY Cicaplast Baume B5 (40ml)
My emergency blanket in a tube. Whenever tretinoin leaves my skin feeling raw, this barrier-repair balm saves the day (or night). Instantly soothing and hard to beat I won’t be without it again.
CLARINS Moisture Replenishing Lip Balm (15ml)
Possibly my holy grail lip balm. Nourishing without sliding off, this balm stays put through the night and actually heals. I’m nearly through my fourth tube, and yes, I already have a backup.
Hope my routines interest you, if you have any question about my skincare, please let me know!
