My Favorite Beautycounter Products
Makeup
My simple daily routine – 5 minutes
These are some of my favorite beauty counter products!
- Skin Twin Foundation. I wear 340 in the summer and love that it has no questionable ingredients (Beautycounter is the industry leading clean beauty brand that only chooses the best ingredients that are also high performing). (This shade chart is handy.) I use this brush to apply for sheer coverage or this blender for more coverage. This is what I use the vast majority of days! I also love this Chantecaille Future Skin Gel Foundation.
- Concealer – Also a brand that does generally clean beauty.
- Cream Blush – I like chai, rosebud and lychee. (review here). Another product with ingredients that meet DfE standards.
- Brow Pencil – I use oak brown. I put this on first to fill in sparse spots.
- Brow Gel – Dark. I put this on after the pencil to help thicken and hold hairs in place!
- Mascara – I use this Tarte primer, followed by Thrive Mascara.
- If I want waterpoof, I wear Tarte Lights, Camera, Splashes if I want waterproof.
- Lipstick – You can see lots of shades on me in this post.
- Lip Gloss
- Sheer Genius Conditioning Lipstick– Lily is a great natural, daily color.
NOTES:
- This post has a video showing how I apply my makeup.
- If you’re looking to overhaul your makeup, the Flawless in Five set has everything you need for a simple, polished look and you save 20% off by buying it as a set.
- If you want more sheer coverage, go for Dew Skin tinted moisturizer rather than Skin Twin. I wear shade 2 or 3 – read my review here. (I use this when I want just sheer coverage.)
Makeup I use when I’m doing a little more!
- Vapour Mattifying powder. This has so many uses! Absorbing oil, setting make-up, blending eyeshadow. (Watch my tutorial here using Beautycounter’s mattifying powder, to get an idea of how to apply!)
- Eyeshadow – I love these shades.
- Eyeliner
- Red Lipstick (Mac Red)
My Skin Care Routine
Products are listed in the order I use them, along with AM & PM use noted.
Morning skincare routine
I also use a lot of Beautycounter when it comes to skincare. They ban over 1,500 questionable ingredients that are regularly used in the beauty industry, so I love that I’m always using safer products. I LOVE their safety standards.
- Countertime Cleansing Oil
- Mineral Boost Hydrating Essence
- All Bright Vitamin C+ Serum (review here)
- Antioxidant Soft Cream
- Ultra Renewal Eye Cream
- Daily Sheer SPF (review here)
Evening Skincare Routine
You can see a quick video of my nighttime routine here.
- Countertime Cleansing Oil
- Mineral Boost Hydrating Essence
- SkinMedica TNS Advance+ Serum
- Overnight Resurfacing Peel – I use this 2-3x a week in place of the SkinMedica serum. (Read my review of the peelhere.)
- Tetrapeptide Supreme Cream – Thick and hydrating but never greasy.
- If I’m feeling EXTRA dry, I use this Augustinus Bader The Rich Cream. It’s super hydrating but I can’t use it during the day since I find it makes me greasy. It’s great overnight though.
- Ultra Renewal Eye Cream – the ONLY eye cream I’ve ever liked (including other Beautycounter ones 🙂 )
Read my review of all Countertime products with before/after photos here.
Weekly
- iS Clinical Active Peel System – I use this 1-2x a week. The first time I used this, I could not BELIEVE how good my skin looked the next morning! It tingles when you use it, which I LOVE.
- Charcoal Mask – I try to use this once a week but it’s really more like 1-2x a month. It’s amazing what a difference it makes to help clear my pores and gently exfoliate my skin.
Body & Hair Care
Hair
- Shampoo & Conditioner
- I use this scalp scrub 1-2x a week for a deeper clean after super sweaty workouts or a few days of dry shampoo.
- I Create Lift Volumizing Foam – seriously SO much volume and smells amazing.
- This is the blowdryer and curling iron I use. Watch my hair curling tutorial here.
Body
- Body wash
- Charcoal bar – I use this to wash my underarms and also use it to wash my makeup brushes (details here).
- Agent Nateur Deodorant
- Lemongrass sugar scrub – must have for summer or special occasions. Read my review here.
- Sunscreen – Countersun lotion or mist for body, Daily sheer for face.
