I am so excited to share my updated daily skincare routine for radiant looking skin. Over the past few months I’ve switched up a few products that I use, and the results have been incredible. After a consult with Kalen Ashford, owner of Ashford Cosmetics, we came up with a morning and evening skincare routine that is customized to my skin type.
This plan is also designed to help tackle a few key problem areas. My skincare goals include reducing pore size, eliminating redness, preventing fine lines and wrinkles and to focus on my T-zone. Ultimately, my goal is to feel confident in my skin and to go makeup free more often!

This cleanser works to deeply clean your skin, remove oil, makeup and other impurities. The silky gel formulation is ideal for all skin types. It’s the perfect way to kickstart your day. After a full night’s rest, you want to make sure you are cleansing before applying your morning serums.
The exfoliating polish gently removes dead skin cells to instantly reveal smoother, softer and glowing skin.
This non-drying formulation helps to brighten skin and clarify pores. You want to make sure you do this after cleansing and exfoliating for best results.
This lightweight serum minimizes the appearance of pores. It features a dual-action formula which works to eliminate surface shine for an instantly matte finish. Introducing this into my skincare routine has been a game changer! I can already tell a huge difference in the appearance of my pores.
This high-performance eye cream revitalizes the eye area for a youthful, brighter appearance. A targeted combination of plant-derived Retinatural Complex and Persian silk tree extract reduces the appearance of under-eye shadows and crow’s feet for a smooth, firmed look.
This brightening serum is full of Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid to improve skin tone, fine lines, and hydrate your skin. It’s also dermatologically tested and approved for sensitive skin!
This is a powerful antioxidant serum designed to improve the appearance of lines + wrinkles and help promote overall skin health.
This sunscreen has zinc in it and is an SPF 30. I love that it has a slight tint to it. If I’m going makeup-free this is enough to give my skin some color!
This cleansing balm is my absolute favorite for removing makeup and dirt after a long day. The gentle balm breaks down makeup easily, without leaving your skin feeling dry. I love how soft my skin feels after using it.
This is the same cleanser from the morning. I like to use this after the Elemis Cleansing Balm to get off any remaining dirt and oil that may be lingering on my face.
These are also the same toner pads from the morning. Once this step is complete, my face and skin feel super soft and clean!
This is also the same eye cream from the morning! It’s perfect for both morning and evening routines.
This is also the same serum from my morning routine! After this step, my skin feels so soft and nourished.
I end my routine with the ZO Growth Factor Serum, which is clinically proven to achieve a superior restoration of visible skin thickness, elasticity, smoothness, and suppleness.
If you want flawless skin, start by drinking half your body weight in water daily. I also sleep on my Kitsch silk pillowcase every night. I love it so much that I pack it with me when I travel!
Another favorite of mine that I use weekly is the DIME beauty whipped mask. It complements my skincare seamlessly. It’s a great exfoliator that leaves my skin feeling smooth and rejuvenated after each use. To see all my favorite DIME beauty products, TAP HERE.

On the Life with Loverly Podcast, we sat down and chatted with Kalen all about skincare, botox, fillers, and more! My biggest takeaway was that skincare products are not a one-size-fits-all product. What works for one person, may not work for someone else, which is exactly why it’s important to see a professional. She also mentioned that our skin continues to evolve and change as we age. This means that a skincare routine that works great for you now, may not be the best option in two years. It’s important to continue to take inventory of what is working, while also keeping in mind that it’s never too early to prevent and never too late to treat!
