an aes_
an aesthetician's
skincare routine
and someone who
struggled with acne
and doesn't believe
expensive = better
let's get serious....
Garnier micellar water
Epionce gentle foaming cleanser
Paula's choice
6% mandelic acid
liquid exfoliant
and 2% lactic acid
Paula's choice
6% mandelic acid
liquid exfoliant
and 2% lactic acid
liquid exfoliant
I am prone to
closed comedones
on my skin
and I find that
this specific liquid exfoliant
is amazing for
getting rid of them
I've tried
Paula's choice BHA
and I found that
it just was not
as good at
tackling the closed
comedones as the
mandelic acid
I usually apply this
in the morning
but sometimes at
night as well
Epionce lytic plus tx
I use this nightly
it's a combination
of salicylic acid
and glycolic acid
this is a really good
option if you are
too sensitive to
tolerate retinoids
Next for my spot
treatment if I have
particularly bad
breakout
Adapalene and
benzoyl peroxide
topical
this is 0.3%
adapalene and
2.5% benzoyl peroxide
I haven't had
to use her in a while
thanks to my other
products
this technically is
a retinoid but I
find that my skin just
tolerates this better
but only in spot
treatment not applied
all over the face
but if you're sensitive
like me this is a
really good retinoid
choice if you have
acne prone skin
My last active ingredient
is the biorepeel
TCA chemical peel
which is a 30%
TCA chemical peel
I do this about
every four to six weeks
This is a professional
product so you can only
get it if you are a licensed
professional or if you go to a spa
and can get this treatment done
This is my favorite chemical peel
of all time
nothing leaves my post
inflammatory pigmentation
gets rid of breakouts
helps with skin texture
overall complexion
it is just truly
an amazing product
And the reason that
I really like this peel
is I just get very mild
flaking and dryness
afterwards
it's not like a really
intense recovery process
So if there's a spot near
you that offers a
biorepeel, yes, even Fitzpatrick 4-6
all skin tones I highly, highly recommend.
Now for my moisturizers
If I'm feeling more dry
I will use Epionce renewal
facial lotion
This saved my skin barrier
from tretinoin and truly
their line of moisturizers
is the best I have ever tried
and believe me I have tried
every medical grade skincare
that is out there
On-ingredients skin barrier
calming lotion
This has such a wonderful
creamy consistency
it soaks into the skin
beautifully
makes primer really well
on top of it
I really cannot say enough
good things about this
I'm pretty sure this is
like my eighth bottle
of this moisturizer
My SPF, which I
apply rain or shine
and you should too
First up is the
Round Lab birch juice
SPF 50PA+++
zero white cast
no harsh smells
it doesn't burn the eyes
it's so smooth
it soaks into the skin
beautifully
My second choice is the
Hyal Reyouth SPF
50PA+++
This has a very similar
consistency to the birch juice
I just prefer the birch juice
for whatever reason
but this is also a phenomenal
option
There's also a sheet mask
from beauty of joseon that I like
I don't have one on me now
but I'll put up a picture here
so you can see it
This one is great too
Bioance
REJUVENATING CAVIAR PDRN
REAL DEEP MASK
this one is great too
I use these instead of the medi
cube the medi cube has so much
added fragrance in it that it's not good
for your skin
this is a much better option
There is also a sheet mask
from beauty of joseon that I like
I don't have one on me now
but I'll put up a picture here
so you can see it
Okay my angels that is
everything I use in
my skincare routine
if you have any questions
about skincare feel free to drop them
below if you have any recommendations
you want me to try out
please let me know
thank you for watching <3

since you asked, here’s my current skincare routine as an aesthetician <3 I have mildly sensitive, oily, acne-prone skin. the journey to clear skin wasn’t linear but we got there 🪽 #skincareroutine #skincaretips #aesthetician #glassskinroutine #bestskincareproducts
Starting with my pre-cleanser. I use Garnier's micellar water. The reason I use this as opposed to a traditional oil cleanser is just because of my sensitive skin. Sometimes the oil cleansing route can irritate my skin. Then for my actual cleanser I use Epionce's gentle foaming cleanser. This is a medical skincare brand that I carry in my spa. I like it because it's formulated by dermatologists, it's botanically based, there's no added fragrance and honestly, it just really agrees with my skin. Now for my serums and active ingredients. First up I have Paula's Choice 6% mandelic acid + 2% lactic acid liquid exfoliant. I am prone to closed comedones on my skin and I find that this specific liquid exfoliant is amazing for getting rid of them. I've tried Paula's Choice BHA and I found that it just was not as good at tackling the closed comedones as the mandelic acid. I usually apply this in the morning but sometimes at night as well. My next serum is Epionce's lytic plus treatment. I use this nightly. It's a combination of salicylic acid and glycolic acid. This is a really good option if you are too sensitive to tolerate retinoids. Next for my spot treatment if I have particularly bad breakout, Adapalene and Benzoyl Peroxide topical. This is 0.3% adapalene and 2.5% benzoyl peroxide. I haven't had to use her in a while thanks to my other products. This technically is a retinoid but I find that my skin just tolerates this better but only in spot treatment not applied all over the face.
