My Current Minimal Skincare Routine - January 2015

I know many people who are happy with a splash of water before bed as their skincare routine. I need a little more, but not terribly much, and I'm finish up some products.

On a daily basis, I wake up and use Origins GinZing eye cream. I use it before bed sometimes, but it  has a bit of a lightening effect, which makes it especially beneficial in the morning.

If I know I'll be outside or in the car at all, I use Roc's day moisturizer with SPF 30. I like everything other than the scent, which is a bit strong for me. I'm interested in trying BB and CC creams that can be applied thick enough to actually benefit from the full SPF number listed, but I have two full tubes of Roc and will be following it through. If you have any recommendations to replace it with afterwards, let me know.

Everyday I use Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentrate. I love this product. It has an extremely mild scent, a whipped texture, and moisturizes perfectly. Supposedly it works as a makeup remover as well, but I have a huge Costco stack of Neutrogena makeup remover towlettes that I enjoy and use as needed. I really need to try the Lait-Creme as a makeup remover.

The Roc facial cleanser came with a Roc package and I'm still finishing it up at a slow pace. It's perfect when my dry skin finally manages to feel greasy or built up. It's a quality cleanser, but I'm open to trying something new when it comes time to replace it as well.
