Updated Nighttime Skincare Routine!

In January I did a nighttime skincare routine. Of course not too long after I posted that routine I started shopping around for new products mainly because I did not like the face wash that I was using. Since then there have been a few changes to my nighttime skincare routine and I am going to share it with you! Just a reminder I have dry sensitive skin and usually have eczema. 

I start by removing my face makeup with my Equate Makeup Remover Wipes. These are the Walmart brand makeup removing wipes. I like the packaging of these wipes because they don't dry out as quickly. I use one wipe front and back to remove my face makeup.

To remove my eye makeup I use the L'OREAL Paris Clean Artiste eye makeup remover. It is 100% oil-free. I put some of this on a cotton round and hold it on my eye for a few seconds. Then I wipe off my eye makeup. It does a good job at getting waterproof mascara off also. 

I wash my face with the PURPOSE Gentle Cleansing Wash. I really like this face wash. This replaced the Aveeno face wash that I was previously using. This does not burn my face and does not irritate my eczema. This wash does not really get foamy. It is a very gentle face wash. 

After I wash and dry my face I use the Equate Sensitive Skin Astringent. This is also a Walmart brand product. I pour some of this on a cotton round and swipe it across my face. This just helps pick up any makeup and/dirt that was left behind. It does give a tingling feeling when you put it on your face. 

I then moisturize my face with the Curel Ultra Healing lotion. To me this is a 'heavy' lotion. I only use it at night because I don't like the feeling it gives my face but it really does help my dry skin. On the back it says that it is non-greasy lotion. 

I apply a small amount of vitamin E oil on my under eyes. While doing some research I found that you could put vitamin E oil on dark circles so I have been testing that out. I only apply the vitamin E oil at night. 

Lastly I use my e.l.f. lip exfoliator and apply a coat of vaseline to my lips. I love the lip exfoliator! It really leaves your lips smooth and it tastes good. Sometimes if my eczema is really bad I will apply it over my eczema patches.. I have found that by doing that it helps reduce the chance of my eczema flaking in the morning. 

What are some products that are essential to your nighttime routine?
