If you have oily skin and you want to take a break from toners, serums, and other exfoliants to let your skin breathe then this easy 3-step skincare routine may be for you.

Step 1. Cleanser - Neutrogena Deep Clean Gentle Foaming Cleanser 

I’ve been using the Neutrogena Deep Gentle Foaming Cleanser since last year and am about to finish my second bottle (as seen in the photo). It claims to gently remove 99% dirt while leaving the skin feeling moist. It is friendly to skin PH level and contains 8% amino micellar which cleanse deep into pores without disrupting the naturally good skin barrier.

What makes me drawn to the Neutrogena Deep Clean Gentle Foaming Cleanser so much is the fact that it’s a foaming cleanser. If you are a long time reader of the blog you know how much I love foaming cleansers. I love the squeaky clean feeling every single time I wash my face and this is one of the best I’ve tried. 

Even with a tiny pea-sized amount of product, it lathers into a foam that is enough for the whole face up to the neck area. One bottle will last you for months!!! My face feels instantly brighter and bouncier after every use. I don’t think I’ll be replacing this anytime soon.

Step 2. Moisturizer - Luxe Organix Aloe Vera Soothing Gel

I went back to using aloe vera gel as my moisturizer and I particularly adore this Luxe Organix Aloe Vera Soothing Gel. It has arginine, an antioxidant that plays a role in repairing visible skin damage. Chamomile extract which helps tighten pores and reduce redness, something I need with active breakouts. Lastly, centella asiatica for improved hydration.

And because it’s friendly on the wallet, I can go all-out using the product. I’m a fan of the sachet as I can bring it’s more hygienic to dispense and I can easily bring it whenever I travel or visit my sister. 

If you’re not a fan of aloe vera or have different reactions to it I also highly recommend Celeteque Hydration Facial Moisturizer. It’s my forever go-to moisturizer. I don’t remember how many bottles of this A-MAZ-ING moisturizer I’ve finished. It’s actually good for students or beginners when it comes to skincare. It’s oil free, water base, fragrance free and hypoallergenic.
