Build your routine around your actual skin. Less guessing, more glow.
The foundations I've learned in a decade as an esthetician, explained the way I'd explain them to you over coffee. Why your skin does what it does, and exactly what to do about it.
This is for you if:
This is for you if:
- You're new to skincare and have no idea where to start
- You have a routine, but you're not sure it's the right one for your skin
- You use a serum because your friend loved it, but you don't really know what it does
- You buy what TikTok tells you, then wonder why your skin isn't glowing like theirs
- Your bathroom shelf is full of half used bottles you're not sure what to do with
- You're tired of spending money on products that don't work for your skin, and want to know exactly what's worth buying
- Your skin is shiny by lunch but somehow still feels tight and dry
- You're doing "everything right", yet your skin still reacts and you can't figure out why
- You've heard of retinol, vitamin C and niacinamide, but have no clue if you need them or how to use them
- You always seem to get a pimple right before a big day
- You're tired of guessing and just want to understand your own skin
Inside the guide:
- The simple at home test to find your real skin type, and why your skin type and skin condition are not the same thing
- What's really behind your breakouts, dullness and sensitivity, from stress and hormones to dehydration
- How to repair a damaged skin barrier, the thing that controls almost everything else
- Every step of your routine explained: double cleansing, toner or essence, serums, eye cream (and where it actually goes), moisturizer, facial oil, SPF and exfoliation
- How to read an ingredients list like a professional, instead of trusting the front of the packaging
- The key ingredients worth your money, and what to layer and never combine
- Morning and evening routines for dry, oily, combination and normal skin, plus "but what if…" fixes for redness, dark spots, fine lines, congestion and breakouts
- My product recommendations with links, and a look inside my own routine, product names included

What this guide is not:
- Not medical advice, and not a treatment plan for diagnosed conditions like eczema, psoriasis or atopic dermatitis. Please see a dermatologist for those.
- Not about injectables, prescriptions or in clinic treatments. This is all about your at home routine.
- Not a promise of overnight results. Real change takes weeks of consistency, and I'm honest about that.
- Not 1:1 advice. This is a self guided resource.
FAQ
Who is this guide for?
For you if you’re new to skincare and don’t know where to start. Or if you already have a routine, but nothing seems to work, your skin still reacts, and you’re not quite sure why you’re doing half the steps. You use a serum because your friend loved it, but you have no idea if it’s right for your skin or what it actually does.
Maybe you’ve wondered:
When should I use vitamin C? Do I need retinol? What even is PDRN? Why is my skin shiny but still feels dry? And why do I always get a pimple right before a big day?
These are just a few of the questions I answer inside. The guide takes you from finding your real skin type, through every step of your routine and the ingredients worth knowing, all the way to a routine built for your skin and the products I trust. So you can stop guessing and start glowing.
Does it work for my skin type?
Yes. First, you’ll find out what your real skin type is. Then dry, oily, combination and normal skin each get their own morning and evening routine. And because skin is never quite that simple, each routine also comes with tweaks for your skin’s current concerns, like redness, dark spots, breakouts, fine lines or a damaged barrier.
How long is it?
