Winter plays havoc on our skin so we’re laying out the best ways for you to come up with a routine you can actually stick to. Getting your skin to glow is just a simple schedule away and can make your face feel amazing.

Step 2-Tone

Perfecting toner is often a step we skip, but here is a favorite of ours to tone everything just right. Think of toner like a wet sponge being applied to your skin. When your skin is damp it can absorb anything better. Mario Badescu Aloe Vera Toner:

Twice daily after cleansing, apply to skin with a cotton ball or pad. Wipe in sweeping, outward motions until the cotton comes up clean. Avoid eye area. If product gets into eyes, rinse well with water.

Step 3 -Treatments

This step is all about attention to detail. Treatments target specific concerns like blemishes, dull under eyes, and more. Use this step under moisturizer so the treatment can sink in and do its job.
