Nighttime Skincare Order

January 27, 2021 by ashadmin No Comments

One of my favorite parts of the day is my nighttime skincare routine. Is that weird? It’s one of the only 15 minute periods of time I get with no interruptions or distractions and it is very peaceful. I do it once the kids are down for the night before Jeff and I unwind watching a show. Did you know there’s a correct order for applying skincare? I recently learned about it and realized I’d been doing a few steps out of order for years! Here’s the correct breakdown:

Double cleanse

This is hands down my favorite cleansing balm (and I’ve used a bunch!) I apply to a dry face and rinse with water. It feels like butter and it melts off my makeup before I wash my face.

I alternate between a few different cleansers – this one, this one and this one.

Tone 

I’ve used this toner for years and I just started using these toner pads (reminds me of stridex pads from back in the day expect they’re all natural) and this toner.

Serum

I started using these serum capsules a couple months ago and LOVE them. My skin has looked fresher and brighter and felt softer.

Retinol (2x a week)

This is the one I’ve used for over a year. I’m also a fan of these retinol alternative face drops.

Moisturizer 

I have a few favorites this one, this one and this one.

Eye Cream 

This one is from a drug store brand I started using a few months ago – it has amazing reviews.

Face Oil 

The last step that helps to lock everything in. I switch between this one and this one.

A few notes –

ASHLEYJACKEL gets you 15% off all Tula products.

I use this facial steamer after I double cleanse probably 5 nights a week for anywhere from 2-10 minutes.

I keep this face cleansing brush in my shower and use it at least once a week – it really cleanses and exfoliates.

Early Cyber Week Beauty Sales

November 23, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

Happy Monday! I can’t believe it’s Thanksgiving week… and even though the holiday will be different for so many this year (my family included), I know it will still be a nice day. Thanksgiving also marks the start of a crazy cyber week (black Friday, cyber Monday, etc). It seems like every year it starts earlier and earlier and get more intense. Part of my job is to highlight sales and be a resource for anyone looking for them. I’m sharing deals on things I love that I think you’ll like too. However, that said I don’t want anyone to feel pressured or like you “have” to buy things. I really don’t want anyone to feel bad if they are not in a position to spend right now. What matters most, especially right now, is health. These are all just material things that do not matter in the grand scheme of things.

Sorry for the rant, it’s just important for me to be transparent – this year more than ever.

With all that said I did want to mention a few of my favorite brands are having beauty sales right now; Elemis, Murad and Vanity Planet. These are all brands I’ve used for years.

I started using Elemis almost 4 years ago when I was pregnant with Crosby and really fell in love with their products. My #1 holy grail from them is their pro-collagen cleansing balm. I’m a big fan of double cleansing and have tried just about every cleansing balm on the market and nothing compares to this one. It really melts your makeup off and cleanses your skin. I also think their gift sets are worth checking out if you’re looking for gifts for beauty lovers – or maybe just a kit to try out some of their products.

Murad is another brand I’ve loyally used for years. I really love their retinol line for anti-aging products. Specifically this serum and eye cream. I’m also a big fan of their sunscreen and vitamin c line. They also have some really fun holiday sets.

I’ve talked about the Vanity Planet Aira facial steamer at length in the past so I won’t be too redundant other than mention how much I love this device. It feels like a luxe treat for my skin that I can quickly do in my own bathroom. I think it would be an amazing gift. I’m also a big fan of their cleansing brush.

Thank you so much for reading – hope you have a great start to your Thanksgiving week.

Tried & True Skincare Favorites on Sale

April 20, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

Happy Monday… but does that it even matter what day it is anymore? I apologize for going radio silent over here the past week, I’m still trying to balance this new normal. Today I want to talk skincare! I haven’t been wearing much makeup lately but have still been focused on skin. I wanted to share my current morning skincare routine…

I start by splashing cool water on my face, I normally don’t use a cleanser in the morning just water.

Then I spray Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Hydrating Mist all over my face, neck and chest and blot it in. This has such a subtle scent that makes me feel like I’m at the spa.

Next I apply Murad’s Environmental Shield Serum to my face, neck and chest. It’s packed with vitamin C which I feel really helps to wake up my skin.

Followed by Murad’s Environmental Shield Eye Cream. This brightens my eyes so much and instantly makes me feel more awake.

I finish with Tula’s brand new sunscreen. I’m a huge fan of this, it’s not greasy, does not have a white tint, smells great and even has a subtle glow.

All of these products (and all products from their respective brands) are currently on sale.

All Elemis products are 25% off with code LTK25

Murad’s are also 25% off and free shipping with code LTK25

My discount code for 15% all Tula products is ASHLEYJACKEL

Other favorites from Elemis include this cleansing balm… I love both the original and the rose pro collagen, this marine oil, night cream and neck and decollete balm.

From Murad I love this peel, gel moisturizer, age spot correcting serum and recovery eye serum.

My favorite Tula products are this primer, brightening eye balm, cult classic cleanser and these gummy vitamins.

Hope you have a great week – as always thank you so much for reading and following.

Skin Care Routine

August 29, 2013 by ashley 4 Comments

I always love to see what beauty products other people use. But the area I’m most curious about is skin care! So today I thought I’d share my current skin care routine. It changes from time to time but this is what I’m following now.

skin care routine

murad exfoliating cleanser : A great deep cleaning cleanser. I received it in a gift bag awhile back and have purchased a replacement since, love how soft and clean my face feels after I use it.

clarisonic mia: Speaking of a soft and clean face… I’ve raved about this before so I’ll keep it brief. They may be a little pricy but are an amazing investment for your skin!

kiehl’s ultra facial cream: Another gift bag discovery. I like a light cream that heavily moisturizers, for me this is it.

yes to blueberries intensive skin repair serum: I’ve found serums a little tricky in the past. I use this after lotion before I go to bed and then rinse it off in the morning.
