I have really struggled with my skin this last year. Hormone shifts really did a number. I was getting more wrinkles, acne and just overall dullness. I made a promise to my self to research and try new things and stick to a routine to help improve how my skin looked and felt. Here I am a few months later and I think I finally have a good routine down. Over on IG you asked for it so here is my easy everyday skincare routine.
You will see a lot of pixi products because I wanted to try things out that were affordable! There are some other brands in here as well. Please note this post may contain affiliate links.

Morning
Everyday:
- Optional: Eye patches or spot treatments like pimple patches.
Evening
Everyday:
- Wash (I love both purpose or charcoal soap).
- Cleanse (and love using a cleanser brush)
- Tone
- Serum
- Lotion
- Eye cream
- I want to note that right now I am using a lot of retinol. I gradually worked ul how often I used. it. What I LOVE LOVE LOVE about pixi products is that they make several product lines that you can interchange for what you need. I really love the vitamin c line (I use the products in the same order and they just have different benefits… or I mix and match within the same 1-6 steps.)
Once a week/every other week demanding on your needs:
- Derma-plane: I do this on Sundays (I use tinkle or this device and will do my normal evening routine (use my serum) shave my face (ha!) then use a little more serum after and continue with the rest of my normal evening steps.
- Refresher (Microdermobrasion): I do this on Wednesdays once a week. I do my normal evening routine steps 1 & 2 use the device and tone with the refresher mist and continue with steps 3-6
- Essia Ultrasonic Lifting and Toning Wand: I like to do this once a week. Usually on Fridays. It has several modes so I just choose the one that I think I am in most need of which is usually either the moisturizer mode or lift mode.
When needed: Eye patches (once a week or after a bad nights sleep), Masks (usually about once a week).
*note I also love neutrogena wipes, makeup eraser and Mary Kay eye makeup remover
I hope this helps break down an easy skin care routine and how to use what kroducts/devices and when. I know it can be really overwhelming BUT just start somewhere and you can adjust as you start to understand what your skins needs are.

What is a must in your easy everyday skincare routine?
