Good morning, beauties, how do you feel today? Today I would like to share with you my morning beauty routine and tell you a little bit about the products I love to use. First off, I would like to start my morning with a glass of water. I have dry to combined skin types and experience some complications with water consumption, so this step is especially important to me. Staying hydrated is crucial for the proper functioning of the body and for healthy skin.

  • Starting with hydration...

I always start my day with a glass of water. With my dry to combination skin, I've realized how important hydration is for keeping my skin healthy. It's not just about looks; it's a crucial part of my daily beauty routine. 

Water naturally helps flush out any impurities, supports the body's natural cleansing processes, and improves blood circulation. All of these factors contribute to that healthy, radiant glow we all want. Additionally, well-hydrated skin is stronger, less likely to age prematurely, and better at defending against environmental stress. That's why I make sure to kick off my day with a big glass of water. 

  • De-puffing sleepy face...

Do you also wake up with that morning puffiness that can make your face feel a bit sluggish? I've got a couple of tricks up my sleeve to combat it. Before my skin fully wakes up, I like to use a gel eye mask or some DIY morning ice. My homemade ice cubes, made with mineral water, chamomile, or cucumber, work wonders to invigorate the skin, reduce redness, and tackle puffiness.

  • Cleansing the skin...

The next step in my morning routine is cleansing. Removing excess oil, dirt, and dead skin cells is absolutely vital for me. I opted for a simple and budget-friendly gel cleanser by Balea. It's mild and doesn't strip my skin of its natural moisture.

  • Toning and refreshing...

Usually, I skip toner, and instead, I like to use refreshing facial mists like Yon-Ka Phyto-Aromatic Facial Lotion you can check my review on this spray here or my favorite fine facial mist Vitamin C Beauty Elixir by Banish. I don't like to apply many products on my skin, layering one over another, but a lightweight skin moisturizer or a vitamin serum is important.

  • Moisturizing face and neck...

Moisturizing my face and neck is a crucial step in my morning routine, ensuring that my skin stays nourished and supple throughout the day. Plus, a well-moisturized face makes it easier to apply makeup! Currently, I'm absolutely smitten with the Super Aqua Cell Renew Snail Cream by Missha. This luxurious cream not only provides exceptional hydration but also contains snail mucin, known for its skin-renewing properties, leaving my complexion looking revitalized and radiant. It's worth noting that despite its richness, this cream absorbs remarkably fast, making it an ideal choice for those busy mornings when time is of the essence. 

And, to truly kickstart my day, no morning is complete without a steaming cup of fresh coffee, a little ritual I savor. I like to brew a rich, aromatic blend and add a touch of cream to create a comforting and invigorating experience that pairs perfectly with my skincare routine. So, with my skin moisturized and my coffee in hand, I'm ready to face the day ahead with confidence and a renewed sense of energy.

  • It is time to have a productive day...
