Skincare routine for Dullness and Dark Spots


Currently my major skincare concern is having dull skin especially now that I'm older.  It almost feels like that natural glow of youth has dimmed a little (I hope it's just in my imagination).  So, I've gone from a basic cleanser, moisturizer routine to almost having a whole pharmacy's worth of products on my vanity.  

Occasional facials from before an important event has now become a must do every other month. It's all adding up but here, I hope to cull it all down and give you some product suggestions that will help with the dullness and dark spots that seem to appear with age.


Another factor with my skincare routine is that it has to be quick and not cumbersome as I need to get out the door every morning very quickly.  
 

These are my out the door skin care routine products that has worked for me:

skin care routine for dullness and dark spots
Skin care routine products


Cleanser - Tatcha - Camilla Cleansing Oil

Morning Serum - The Ordinary - Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%. This helps with any dark spots and pigmentation on the face and helps even it out.

Under Eye Cream - Drunk Elephant C-Tango Vitamin C Eye Cream. This really helps with under eye circles.

Morning Moisturizer - Tatcha - The Dewy Skin Cream. Light and moisturizing and my skin glows after using this.

Sunscreen - La Roche Posay - Anthelios SPF 60 - Sunscreen is very, very important.
Do NOT skip the sunscreen step. Skipping sunscreen will damage your skin even more. Keep reapplying sunscreen throughout the day.

Evening Cleanser - Tatcha - Camilla Cleaning Oil

Evening Exfoliator - Tatcha - The Rice Polish Deep. Use this mild exfoliating powder (it foams when you add a few drops of water to it) two times a week. It clarifies the skin, polishes it and gives it a nice glow.

Evening Serum - Sunday Riley - Luna Sleeping Night Oil. This has retinol oil which will help improve the appearance of skin, reduce redness and even out skin tone.

For Spots - Mario Basescu Anti Acne Serum - Apply on the spots after cleansing and before serums & moisturizers. This has salicylic acid and will help exfoliate any sebum clogging your pores and will help clear up the spot faster.

Every one’s skin is different and people react to products differently so it's is very important to read the ingredients to make sure you are not allergic to any of the products.

Chanel Les Beiges Water Fresh Tint Foundation in Medium Deep.

Something that always bothers me especially during COVID times when most of us are predominantly shopping online, is a well funded cosmetic / makeup brand failing to properly display shades of its product on their website. It's 2021. Online shopping is not a novelty. There should be no excuses for this sort of shoddy marketing.  Case in point, the Chanel Les Beiges Water-Fresh Tint foundation on the Chanel website (or Macys , or Bloomingdales ) website.   On the Chanel website, there is only one color swatch. No swatches on how it looks on various skin tones (even if those look awfully photoshopped). Minimum details about color and the color names are different on the retailer website and colors mislabeled across websites.  I don't blame the retailers in this case as I think they get their pictures & details from the Chanel website.  However, Chanel could do a better job with their marketing of this product.  Chanel Les Beiges Water Fresh Tint in Medium Dee...

Natural Makeup Look for Indian Brides

When I got married many, many, many years ago, I was super adamant that I was going to do my own makeup.  I'm of Indian origin and I celebrated my wedding in India. In the wedding planning stage, I considered a lot of makeup artists, many who came highly recommend.   However, I found there was a disconnect between what I wanted and what the makeup artist thought was the ideal wedding makeup. Even during my makeup trials, I found that they were almost unwilling to listen to what I wanted because their perception of the 'ideal' wedding makeup. The standard Indian brides makeup look at that time was so fundamentally different to what I considered to be ideal for me. Anytime, I went in for a facial in India, the facialist would always recommend a 'light bleaching agent' as a 'cleanser' to get an 'instant glow'. This would horrify me. I could never understand why anyone would put any sort of 'bleaching agent' however mild on their FACE or any ...
