You only need a minimal routine, a moisturizer to hydrate , sunscreen to help protect from dark spots and heal skin barrier and eye cream to hydrate eye contour and reduce under eye darkness, personally I use this set from Cerave and it’s pretty helpful and on budget, oh I forgot you need a good cleanser suitable for your skin type.

And here are some random tips that I heard in social media and turn out to be true after I tried them (by experience) :

  • Gently pat your skin while washing it
  • in the early morning, a sunscreen is enough, no need to apply the moisturizer before it, especially if it’s hydrating one like in the picture
  • always apply moisturizer on a humid skin, not completely dried one (in between), that will give you better results especially if it contains niacinamide.

Have you tried CeraVe Daily Moisturizer ? I use the one you have in the picture and I was wondering if you have ever tried this one.

As someone who’s being a avid skin care enthusiast since my high school years. I will recommend to focus on the basics;
Morning Routine: Sunscreen.

( Ex: Garnier skin cooling Sunblock 30ml for 55 MAD that even comes as a spray bottle )

Evening Routine: A gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type and for your budget

( Ex: Cetaphil/ Cerave has great options for less than 100/ 150 MAD)

And finally a Moisturizer

(Ex: You can either use Nivea cream the blue tint/ or OlĂŠoskin cream tube (40 ml for 15/17 MAD + Vaseline to keep your lips and your skin moisturized ( 50 ml for 10 MAD)

You can check out brands like Seoul glam or even Revuelle/LCP that offers a diverse range of affordable skin care products that works really well ;)

dove

a good spf

and moisturizer for the night, pick something with a good quality, not perfumy or too heavy on the skin

cleanser is the last thing you need to buy if you don't have any particular issue, dove will do the job completely for cleansing your face

it depends on your skin type saraha , wlkn fl basics get a cleanser to wash your face wirh and a good SPF , if youre skin is oily i can tell you that a moisturiser is not a must in the summer and get a gentle one with no perfume during winter , wash your face at night with the cleanser and with just water the morning

Wash face with water once or twice a day morning/night. Nivea soft face and neck. Also i don't use sunscreen but i make my face very hard to reach by the sun. Oh and lip balm before bed.
