A tried and true skincare routine is essential in letting your skin thrive amidst the heat of Summer or the pending dryness of Autumn and Winter. Bouncing around from brand to brand can be very exhausting, both on your skin barrier and on your wallet. Some products from certain brands may simply have different target audiences from other products of the same brand names, and figuring out which target audience you fall into becomes immensely confusing for a girl who simply wants a gentle routine that will aid in all of their skincare needs. One of our recent favorite brands, Dr. Jart+, aims to approach skincare with a gentle hand and an even more delicate product list. The components of each of these products listed are mainly focused on redness, fine lines, skin texture, and dryness. If you believe you’re in the running for a new skincare routine, we have a step-by-step list of Dr. Jart+ products that will likely be worth your while.
Price: $28
Provides a gentle cleansing experience with the use of glycerin. This component increases hydration, relieves any unwanted dryness without oiling your skin up, and is said to remove seven different types of debris. This way, your skin is prepped through the removal of any buildup happening under the skin, and the true glow from within comes shining through. The cleanser is fragrance-free with a jelly consistency, and also does not contain any parabens, alcohol, or silicones (in additional to so much more). This would be a great pick for anyone struggling to find a gentle cleanser.
Price: $39
This is a serum/toner hybrid, but that just means you'll get some extra hydration in (as opposed to some other toners that can be more drying) to get that illustrious glow everybody has nowadays. If you struggle with uneven skin tone and skin dullness, then this product is definitely something you might want to consider. The product utilizes glycerin, much like the facial cleanser, to get some deep moisture into your skin. This allows the skin to have optimal elasticity without seeming droopy. The five ceramides in the serum increase skin barrier strength through ensuring that water loss is slowed down, therefore preventing any lost moisture and allowing you to shine.
Price: $42
Acid peels and liquid face exfoliants can be very rough on skin that is not used to these types of chemicals being on the sensitive facial area, so tread carefully with this one. Dr. Jart+ states that the star ingredients are as follows: "5% AHA and BHA [in order to] unstick and dissolve dead skin cells that cause dullness and enlarged-looking pores, plus Hyaluronic Acid." Hyaluronic Acid is a soothing agent when compared to AHAs and BHAs, so if you're relatively new to liquid exfoliants you can always start with this product! It's important to note that acid peels should only be used on dry skin, at night, 2-3 times a week. Avoid the eye area when using this product because that is the most tender and sensitive part of your face. Pop on a nice glob of the moisturizer also in this list, and you'll be set up for a smooth-skin Sunday morning without even trying. Nothing feels better than being glowy off the wake-up!
Price: $10
This mask treatment is only $10 despite the astounding results the product promises. The Ceramidin line is like a glowy skin parade because of the panthenol and five ceramides that are added to an already star-studded ingredient list. The main target is dullness and elasticity, so glowy skin is essentially a given if you're using these products generously and religiously. Panthenol has anti-inflammatory and anti-acne properties, so this product is not only for the girlies dealing with texture and dullness. You likely will not break out using this specific product line.
Price: $54
This serum similarly pairs well with its color correcting sister. Having tried this myself, I can attest to the fact that it is indeed an intensive soothing experience upon first use. I often struggled finding products that'll give me that natural glow we all covet without it looking too greasy or shiny. However, pairing this with the Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin moisturizer and Tiger Grass color corrector, I've been seeing astounding results in my fine lines, redness, and skin dullness.

Visit Before the Summer Ends: Coastal Grandmother Towns
Take a look at the minimalism that lies in the grandiose; these are some of our favorite spots, whether you’re in the running for a tranquil retreat or an Insta-worthy lighthouse adventure. That’s the thing about coastal living: You are able to embrace the coastal grandmother (or coastal granddaughter) aesthetic, indulge in freshly caught seafood bites, and find yourself in the simple-yet-chic indulgences life by the sea has to offer.

This product boasts a non-greasy, brightening finish for your under-eye area. When you don't want your concealer clinging to the pesky lines underneath your eyes, this cream might be able to help. Due to its brightening components (thanks to the squalene and niacinamides), you might not even need to wear concealer at all. However, eye cream only works if you're using it routinely, so make sure to keep the thought of it in your head as you're carrying out your skincare routine everyday.

Many people love Dr. Jart+ products because they find unique yet effective ways to combine the concept of skincare and of makeup. I’ve been using tubs of their Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment for years, and this barrier cream pairs really well with it (you'll see that treatment further down on this list). The entire Ceramidin line has almost entire ingredient lists replicated for the women who want to keep things simple, prevent acne, aging, and dullness in the skin. The price point is a little steep, but glowy skin is a pretty nice trade-off.

Mineral sunscreen has been said to be much gentler on the face for people who have sensitive skin and/or are acne prone. Not only is this sunscreen mineral, but it has SPF 50+ for the ladies who are frightened of sun spots or further-pronounced fine lines. You should always wear sunscreen, but we find that this one gives you a nice glow without looking too pearlescent (save that for the clams at the beach!) Remember, glowy doesn't always mean greasy, so this matte-finish sunscreen is great to pair with the other glow-oriented products on this list.

I cannot express how much this color correcting treatment means to me. I deal with so much redness day-to-day, and this skincare/makeup hybrid is the only way I can completely have it covered without irritating it further. Dr. Jart+ states that Tiger Grass (Cica/Centella) is "an herbal remedy tigers in the Asian wetlands have rolled around in for centuries to help heal their wounds." Though we ladies are not tigers, I can get behind anything that evens out my skintone without looking cakey atop my face. It also has SPF 30! The glow this products gives you is to die for, but they have yet to expand their neutral beige shade range to deeper tones. We'll keep an eye out for that.

We added this in because we know our ladies love lip balm. Just a little addition to an already jam-packed skincare routine list, nothing feels better than putting on a nice soothing lip balm after completing your multi-step routine. I think we've boasted about the Ceramidin line enough, but I want to reiterate that you are missing out on some soothing dryness relief with this one. If you're dealing with dryness in the heat of the summer or on a long-haul flight, this lip balm will be your best friend (and it's just really cute to have all matching products).
