Summer is the perfect time to wear less makeup and let your skin shine! I tried an easy, no-fuss 4-step summer skincare routine and my skin is so happy, hydrated, and glowing! The whole routine takes less than 10 minutes. For reference, I have combination skin that can get fairly dry in cooler months. I typically only wear makeup three days a week to let my skin get plenty of breathing room.

Step One
Cleanse your face with Joanna Vargas’ Vitamin C Face Wash. This non-drying light face wash is great for all skin types and helps to remove makeup, daily grime, and pollutants gently using a medley of Vitamin C ingredients to balance your skin. The consistency is so silky, it makes washing your face after a long day feel like such a luxury! My skin is left soft, smooth, and doesn’t get that tight or dry feeling like some other cleansers leave. I use morning and evening to refresh and cleanse my skin!
Key Ingredients:
*Vitamin C: This super vitamin helps to protect your skin against harmful UV rays, clear and brighten skin for a more even tone.
*Acai and Goji Berries: These antioxidants help to revitalize and balance the pigment and texture of the skin.
*Hyaluronic Acid: This ultra moisturizing ingredient hydrates skin, repairs tissue, improving collagen and elastin.
*It is also free of sulfates, phthalates and parabens.
Step Two
Treat yourself to baby-smooth skin with Joanna Vargas’ Exfoliating Mask. After cleansing, I apply a thin layer of the exfoliating mask, massage into damp skin for one minute and then leave on for five minutes. Then rinse and your skin will be silky soft and radiant! I use this mask two to three times a week to put my best face forward always! It helps to draw out impurities, clear pores, and even out texture.
Key Ingredients:
*Kaolin Clay: Draws out impurities without stripping oils
*Lactic Acid: Breaks down dead skin cells and kills germs and bacteria
*Kojic Acid: Helps with hyperpigmentation
*Fruit Enzymes: Vitamin C boosts cell turnover to help brighten skin
*Volcanic Ash: Draws out impurities
Step Three
I finish off with Joanna Vargas’ Rejuvenating Serum to hydrate and nourish my skin and lock in moisture. This is such a luxurious feeling serum, like silk, and smells incredible. A little goes a LONG way, so you only need one pump for your face, neck, and decolletè. It is loaded with incredible oils and antioxidants to give you the ultimate anti-aging serum to promote cellular metabolism and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Currently I use just in the evening to give my skin a dose of moisture.
Key Ingredients:
*Argan Oil: Scientifically proven to correct age-related deficiencies in skin that cause dehydration and loss of elasticity
*Neroli Oil: Increases circulation to help aid the body in releasing toxins
*Olive Oil: Softens skin to reduce inflammation and detoxes skin
*Rosehip Oil: Regenerates and accelerates cell production and protects against photo-aging
*Jojoba Oil: A powerful moisturizer from nature for glowing skin
Step Four
Finish with the U Beauty Lip Plasma Compound to reshape and plump lips while locking in major hydration for a super juicy pout. I use in my morning routine to lock in moisture and soften my lips all day and use it essentially as a lip mask in the evening. It helps to improve color, softness and smoothness while naturally plumping lips and giving them more volume with repeated use. It is the ultimate lip treat and gives you the prettiest glossy lip look for a clean girl beauty summer routine.
I love how easy this skincare routine is and how it makes my skin look so healthy and glowy! Plus, the lip plasma is my favorite lip moisturizer I have used yet! You can shop all products online at Bloomingdales.com and below:
