Evening Beauty Routine

A couple of weeks ago I posted my Morning Beauty Routine so I figured I would also post my Evening Beauty Routine for those who were interested. In comparison, this one has a few more steps, but they're all necessary in removing the makeup and grime that builds up on my face throughout the day.


1. Simple Oil Balancing Cleansing Wipes: I clean my face in two steps, and I use these wipes to get the majority of my makeup off before I get into the deep cleaning. I've used lots of different makeup wipes, and I like these the best because they are gentle. They remove most of my makeup without leaving my face fire engine red.

2. Neutrogena Fresh Foaming Cleanser: I've been using this cleanser since I was 16 and my dermatologist recommended it to me. I put about one pump's worth onto my Clarisonic Mia with the Cashmere brush head, and I let it do its job. Whatever the makeup wipes didn't remove, this cleanser will no doubt get it off. This cleanser is also great for removing that pesky eye makeup that just won't budge.

3. Tarte Maracuja C-Brighter Eye Treatment: Once I'm done cleansing my face, I go in with this eye cream. This eye cream is very hydrating and absorbs super quickly. I use this in the mornings as well, and I definitely notice a brightening in the eye area. This eye cream is a great value for the price.

4. Medicine from the Dermatologist: As I've mentioned before, I first started going to the dermatologist when I was in high school, and I've gone every year since then. I've been using this gel since my first visit. I'm pretty sure my skin is addicted to it, but it makes sure my skin is bump free so I really can't complain. I slather on a thin layer all over my face, (like seriously, I use a pea size amount) and that's it.

5. EOS Lip Balm in Sweet Mint: Every night before I go to bed, I put this on my lips. This is super embarrassing to admit, but I'm a mouth breather at night. Yes, it's true. I have horrible sinuses that seem to act up especially when I'm trying to sleep causing me to turn into a drooling mouth breather. But this minty miracle in a sphere saves my lips from chappy doom.

So that's it! What products are part of your beauty routine? Let me know :)

  1. Do you like your clarisonic? I've been looking into getting one because I've hear so many good things about them. And I have the same problem with my sinuses so I know how you feel. I use the same lip balm every night!

    1. I do like it! This is actually my second one. I bought my first one like 5 years ago. When I don't use it, my face just doesn't feel as clean. I like all the different brush head options as well, and I'm looking into getting the one for the body!
