My Morning Skincare Routine

Since I often share recommendations and tutorials, naturally my posts may contain affiliate links to the products I use and love. If you take action (make a purchase, for example) after clicking one of these links, I will earn a little coffee money, which I promise to drink while creating more helpful content for you.

My morning skincare routine is perfect for anyone with mature or dry skin and those looking to minimize the signs of aging.

I have rosacea as well, so if that is also a concern of yours, this routine may work for you as well. Rosacea is tough though because it is so individualized. Thankfully, all products I use come from Beautycounter, which means they are non-toxic, cruelty-free, and come with a 60 day money-back guarantee.

My Morning Skincare Routine

For both my morning skincare routine and my evening skincare routine, I primarily use products from our Countertime line. This line features plant-based, age-defying and antioxidant ingredients.

Please know I started out with just the regimen and added other products when ready.

I use the entire line when my rosacea is under control, but when it is flaring, I use the Countermatch serum in place of the Countertime serum, because it contains less active ingredients.

I follow the four step regimen process in my morning routine: Cleanse, Prep, Treat, Protect (more on that below).

Cleanse: Countertime Lipid Defense Cleansing Oil

Prep: Countertime Mineral Boost Hydrating Essence

Treat: Countertime Tri-peptide Radiance Serum or Countermatch Intense Moisture Serum followed by Vitamin C Serum

Protect: Countertime Antioxidant Soft Cream, Number 3 Balancing oil, and Sheer Defense Sunscreen

Every Skincare Regimen Should have Four Parts

I made this very quickly for an Instagram post today and will update soon!

Welcome

I believe one should never underestimate the power of a good cup of coffee or the perfect glass of wine and that non-toxic living is the key to aging healthfully and beautifully. Read More…

I’m meal prepping for the week(anti-inflammatory I’m meal prepping for the week(anti-inflammatory of course) which includes baking a bunch of chicken breasts, steaming several heads of broccoli, and making a pot of brown rice.

Every two weeks I’ll make clean muffins or bread for breakfast to shake things up a bit. I usually have a protein shake or a few scrambled egg whites and a banana or a piece of Ezekiel 7 sprouted grain bread (gluten free) as toast for breakfast, but sometimes I crave a baked good. 

When I have a muffin (or two) or slice of bread, I add a couple of scrambled egg whites on the side to make sure I have enough protein. 

➡️I’ll link to the recipes for these banana chocolate ship muffins and banana apple bread in my stories. 

Do you meal prep on Sundays as well?

🥳🚌🧑‍🎓💪🏻New year, new semester, 🥳🚌🧑‍🎓💪🏻New year, new semester, many new students, and feeling really well today.
My rosacea is even behaving. 🤣

I did go back to an anti-inflammatory diet after indulging in all the things over the holidays, so it makes sense that I am feeling better. Feeling optimistic anyway. 

🎉I don’t want to jinx it, but what a great way to ring in 2022!

❤️19 years ago today, surrounded by family and ❤️19 years ago today, surrounded by family and friends in Cooperstown, NY (and a record snowfall outside), I married my best friend and soulmate. 

I love reflecting on that day and the many beautiful memories we’ve made since then.

Our photographer was the photographer from the National Baseball of Fame and he used several antique cameras to capture our special day.

I wish you all a beautiful day filled with love and time for relaxation. 🥰

Scroll through to see some of my favorite decor over here, like our trees selected specifically to highlight our collection of @crosbyandtaylor ornaments, our Christmas card board for all of our cards over the years on top and those we’ve received from others this year below, and a little something worth celebrating: our first homemade cannoli. Thank you, @preppykitchen for the guidance. We had fun with it. 

It has been a very hard week, which I will share more about later, but we tried to keep things as normal as possible for our kiddo. 

🕊Peace be you.
