Living in Southern California is a beautiful thing. A beautiful, expensive thing. One of the best parts of living here is the gloriously warm weather year round. However, once summer rolls around and brings the 105° afternoons, the thrill of that brilliant weather is quickly lost. The feeling subsides even more as the sweat drips and the pores become clogged with sunscreen and makeup. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Cleanser This cleanser is a year round staple! I love how clean my face feels after using it, but it doesn't leave your skin feeling stripped of all moisture. I hate cleansers that don't foam, and this one foams very nicely. The salicylic acid keeps skin clear and fights against acne, which is common problem of mine. Overall such a great cleanser. La Roche-Posay Effaclar MAT Moisturizer Another solid La Roche-Posay product! I actually just bought this about a week ago but I am loving it so far. This moisturizer is made specifically for oily skin and dries completely matte. I have had trouble finding a product that will keep my combination skin hydrated without clogging my pores, and this lightweight lotion provides both of those needs. Although it's a bit pricier for a drugstore product, the high quality ingredients and advanced formula make it worth every cent. Because it is more lightweight, I use this in the morning only. CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion Apparently I have a thing for blue and white skincare products. But seriously, this lotion is such a staple. It is a more heavy duty moisturizer that actually keeps my pores clear. This unscented, no frills face lotion is perfect for oily skin (even though the bottle says normal to dry), and the hyaluronic acid packs a punch! I use this at night when I need a deeper hydration. Acure Brightening Facial Scrub Exfoliation is sooooo important for combination skin and is the secret to keeping your complexion bright and radiant. I love this Acure facial scrub because it is gentle enough to not cause micro-tears but sloughs off all of that nasty dead skin. I like to exfoliate 3-4 times a week because my skin is more on the oily side, but if your skin is dry I would recommend only using this 1-2 times a week. Be Berry Clear Illuminating Peel Mask
I love this mask. Not only does it have skin-brightening antioxidants such as raspberry and acai, it smells amazing and is super fun to peel off. And genuinely, my skin looks so much brighter and glowy after I use this. There's nothing better than fresh, radiant skin during the summer and this affordable mask is a great option.
