A set daily beauty routine didn’t really become a habit until I was in my 30s.
When I was a teenager, I didn’t really think long term about caring for my skin. I certainly didn’t look at cause and effect either (not washing your face = congested skin.) In my 20s, it was much of the same with a few adjustments (I knew moisturizer was a must.)
Back in the “olden days” (as my kids like to say), skin care was no frills. We didn’t have sonic cleansers or electronic pedicure files. Paper masks weren’t a thing and SPF definitely wasn’t part of your beauty routine. Something else I recall is that most advertisements and magazine articles focused on facial skin care while the rest of your body suffered the consequences. (I cringe thinking about what my heels looked like for too long.)

Once in my 30s and now in my 40s, I love to take care of my skin and view it as a form of wellness and self-care. So here’s what my daily and weekly skin and body care look like:
Daily A.M. Face Care:

Cleanser, toner, 2% BHA treatment, serum, eye cream, Vitamin C treatment, moisturizer with SPF.
Daily P.M. Face Care:

Makeup remover, sonic skin care tool with cleanser, toner, serum, eye cream, night cream with Retinol.
Weekly Face Care:

Exfoliator,...
