My Daytime Routine
1. Caudalie Premier Cru The Cream
This is the lighter of the two Caudalie creams. It hydrates without feeling heavy under makeup, which is exactly what I want in the morning.
2. d'Alba Multi Balm, under my eyes
Just a little under my eyes before makeup. Stays put and fills in fine lines. Easy to use in the stick.
3. Dior concealer on my lids
A little on my eyelids first, as a base before eye makeup.
4. Dior Forever Skin Glow foundation
This is the one I'll keep repurchasing. It doesn't settle into fine lines, and it gives a dewy finish without looking fake. At our age, that's everything.
5. Concealer touch-up, then the rest of my makeup
6. Naked Sundays SPF 50 Hydrating Glow Mist, last, before I leave the house
This goes on every time I head out, with or without makeup. I mist my face, my scalp along my part and the backs of my hands. Nobody warned me my hands would show age before my face did.
During the day: d'Alba First Spray Serum
When my skin feels tight or my makeup looks tired, a few sprays bring the moisture back and freshen everything up.
My Nighttime Routine
1. Lancôme Bi-Facil eye makeup remover
Shake it to mix the two layers, then use a cotton pad. It takes off everything, even waterproof mascara, without scrubbing.
2. Lancôme Génifique serum
3. Caudalie Premier Cru The Rich Cream
The richer version of my day cream. It's thicker and more nourishing, and it's what my skin wants overnight. But, it is still light enough and doesn’t feel greasy like some.
Why Two Creams From the Same Line?
Same line, two textures. The Cream is light enough to wear under makeup, and The Rich Cream does the heavy lifting while I sleep. If your skin feels different in the morning than it does at night, this setup works well.
