Friday Favorites: Face products!

My beauty routine is lame.  I know it is.  I know there are all these awesome products out there that I should try.  That's why I love reading these kind of posts! I like seeing what kind of products others are using.  Here are a few of my favorite facial products for my Friday Favorites post:

How boring am I?!?!
 1. Aquaphor: I have written about this amazing-ness before. Remember in the movie "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" how the dad tells everyone to put windex on everything? That is me with aquaphor! I use this stuff on everything.  A zit pops up or I feel one coming on, I slather this stuff on it when I go to bed and it's gone by morning.  My wrinkles are feeling rather large on my forehead, load up some of this and they appear less in the morning.  I put it on scars, burns, cuts, bug bites... you name it! I use it on everything for the boys too.   Here's the thing with zits-- it's totally counter-intuitive from what you think because it's greasy feeling.  I am not saying it makes sense.  I am saying it works.  Trust me.  In fact, I might go slather some on right now...

2. Oil of Olay Regenerist face wipes:  These are my ADDICTION.  I use these to clean my face every morning and every night.  I am not a fan of leaning over the sink and splashing water on my face...feels great, but not my favorite thing.  These get all my makeup off and leave my face feeling super clean and fresh. 

3. Oil of Olay Regenerist Regernerating Serum: I put this on every morning either after my shower or after I wipe by face with above wipes.  I looooove this stuff.  It's a serum instead of a lotion so it has a different texture (#duh), but I love the way it feels on my skin.  It makes my face super soft. I plus to this one is they just started carrying it at Costco for cheaper than drug stores.... love it.

4. Oil of Olay Regenerist Moisturizing Night Cream: Before bed, after I use my face wipes, I slather this on my face and neck and let me tell you-- it feels like heaven.  It is super thick and my face soaks it up. 

Pretty lame, I know, but these are my daily must have staples.  Throw in some carmex chapstick and I am set! ha! Best part about these products is they can all be bought at the grocery store, walmart, target, etc etc... Part of me really wants to try some new stuff, like Rodan and Fields or some Lancome goodies, but part of me really likes to use some easy to get stuff. 

What are your favorite products? Anything I should be trying?

I feel the same way about Vaseline. I'm sure it's pretty similar! I always rub it on my lips and under my eyes just before I go to bed. My mom swears by it, and she looks amazing at age 69, so I'm going to trust her!
I need to pick up some cleansing wipes. I feel the SAME way about leaning over a sink!
Enjoy your weekend!

I had no idea you had a blog! Fun! Feel the exact same way about aquaphor! That is my crack! I have used Oil of Olay products since college! �� ���� but recently started Rodan and Fields and must say..... I am obsessed!!! I love it! It's pricey, but so worth it and I noticed a difference in the first week. Jenn Scrimshaw sells it. You should reach out to her, she was super helpful when I was contemplating the products!

Wipes are my BFF...I am too lazy to wash my face at night, so these do the trick. I do love Arbonne products, but they're pricey, and you have to buy them online. And, I think we have like eight bottles of Aquaphor spread throughout our house and cars...love it.
