Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!

My Morning Skincare Routine

My Morning Skincare Routine

I am a serious morning person. My day usually starts at 4:00am, and I would not have it any other way. I love a good slow morning, devotions, lattes, and skincare complete my perfect trifecta. I am going to take you step-by-step into my morning skincare routine.


Jade Rolling

Nothing wakes up the face more than an ice-cold jade roller. There are so many benefits to the ancient Chinese technique; it is practically an art form. Slow down in the mornings and bring yourself to life with a Herbivore Botanicals jade roller.

Lush Cup O' Coffee Face Mask

If you have had a rough night and you are looking to add a little buff + shine to your routine, I highly suggest Lush Cup O' Coffee face mask. Cup O' Coffee is crafted to wake up the mind and body with freshly brewed Arabica coffee beans and organic Agave syrup. Smear this on your face for 10-15 minutes and let the caffeine do the rest! Check out Cup O' Coffee and my other four favorites in Lush items in Lush Must Haves: Bod Edition.

French Girl Organics Fleur De Néroli Charcoal Wash

After I say, "Au revoir!" to dead skin cells, the next step is to cleanse with French Girl Organics cleanser. French Girl is the perfect light and simple cleaners for the combination skin type. French Girl is infused with charcoal for detoxifying and hyaluronic acid for toning. Try it, and watch the texture of your skin completely transform.

Vitamin C serum

The products you apply in the morning, seep into your skin and benefit you throughout the day. Vitamin C will give you that toning glow leaving you fresh and ready to tackle anything that may come your way. Claire-ity vitamin serum is an organic topical serum, infused with vitamin and hyaluronic acid to all in my products have that common thread. Which leads me to my next product.

A little bit of coffee, a whole lot of concentration.

The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid

To ensure I get the benefits of smooth, supple, youthful-looking skin, one of my final steps is The ordinary Hyaluronic Acid. Acid may seem a little scary, but it is a thick serum designed to coat the skin and lock in all of the creamy vitamin-filled goodness that was previously applied.

Lush Gorgeous Moisturizer

Talk about a finishing act! Fresh pineapple juice, cold-pressed vegetable oils, neroli oil, and myrrh work together to boost elasticity and promote a youthful even-looking skin tone. This SPF rich moisturizer is the last thing I put on my face before I head out the door and tackle my day!


Your skincare routine does not have to be this complex. In fact, a simple cleanser, serum, and SPF-based moisturizer are all you really need. Although, if you are looking to savor the sweet morning minutes, take your time and enjoy a few of these luxurious products. Let me know what time you wake up in the morning and if you have tried any of the brands mentioned.
