TRUSTY SCRIBE SKIN
My skin is pretty sensitive and I’ve never really used acids in my skincare routine, so I decided to switch to using it once a day – that has been the perfect amount! It has salicylic acid in it, which is an ingredient I haven’t used until now and I think is better in smaller quantities on me. I initially started using it twice a day, but after a couple of days I noticed some irritation and redness. I wash my face in the shower with this Aveeno Ultra-Calming Foaming Cleanser – gotta love a drugstore beauty buy! After I’m out of the shower and toweled off, I apply Paula’s Choice Exfoliate with a thin cotton pad, which I like to think of as a mix between an exfoliant and a toner. My morning skincare routine really starts after I finish my workout. LARA DEVGAN COLLAGEN BOOSTER HEARTS // SK-II PITERA FACIAL TREATMENT MASK MY CURRENT SKINCARE ROUTINE

Aside from Botox, I haven’t had anything more than a facial done to my skin – I’ve never done micro needling, I’ve never gotten a laser treatment or a chemical peel… Maybe one day I’ll try some of those more intense treatments, but for now I’m happy with the progress I’ve made doing these simple tweaks to my everyday skincare routine.

TRUSTY SCRIBE FULL
The photos above are not retouched, so I’m feeling pretty good about the changes I’ve made so far! Full disclosure though, I do get Botox injected into my forehead, between my brows, and on the outside corners of my eyes to combat wrinkles and crow’s feet. In the last two decades, I haven’t done much to it, simply because I haven’t needed to! I’ve kept my routine simple stupid, which worked for a long time… but as I’ve started noticing more signs of aging, I decided to overhaul that routine and incorporate some new products about a month ago. Other than the occasional hormonal breakout, I haven’t had many (if any) skin issues or irritations over the years. I was lucky enough to get some of my grandmother’s genes, including her porcelain skin. I’ve never done anything more than Botox or a facial, so I’m definitely hesitant to do anything super drastic. Initially I thought I wanted to try a laser to tackle these issues, but I chickened out at the last minute. Over the last couple of years I’ve noticed changes in the tone and texture of my skin – think discoloration and sun spots, bumps under the skin, skin thinning out in certain areas, etc.

I rarely try new products or change anything up, so I don’t often have updates worth sharing! With that said, I’m turning 35 later this summer and I have started to make some real changes in terms of my approach to caring for my skin. It’s been SO long since I shared a skincare or beauty update! I’m definitely not an expert in either area, but I am also such a creature of habit.
