I try not to play product favorites but I have to admit, my skin has been in pretttty good shape lately. And this means: only minor breakouts, no dry patches, not a ton of redness and hyperpigmentation…so I, naturally, had to share what I’ve been religiously using. I’ve already blogged about most of these products but hey, here’s a roundup, in one place, so you can see everything that I’m currently using and loving:
Shiseido Urban Environment Oil-Free SPF 42: SPF, SPF, SPF. Wear it every day, all day. I’m a big Shiseido SPF girl because their sunblock formulas tend to be on the lighter side and don’t make you feel greasy and gross.
Darphin Aromatic Cleansing Balm with Rosewood: I told Darphin’s PR rep that I had dry, sensitive skin and she reassured me that I would LOVE this cleansing balm.

If you don’t like skincare that has fragrance, this might not be for you but I love how luxurious this cleanser feels and it doesn’t dry out my skin.

Kiehl’s Rosa Arctica Eye Cream: I’m clearly a big Rosa Arctica advocate but the eye cream is also pretty fantastic. They say moisture is pretty much the most important thing to prevent wrinkles and fine lines and this eye cream has it.
Kate Somerville Neck Tissue Repair Cream with Peptide K8: I’ve blogged before on my fear of my impending turkey neck and, because of this, I’ve been AVID about using neck products. It’s a little too early to say that I’ve seen “improvements” (since I’m only 29) but I have good faith that this product will work because it’s Kate-endorsed.
With all of the stress that I’ve been dealing with lately, my skin has been an utter wreck. But you know when you have dry, sensitive skin like I do, you have to start with a good, clean base and yes, the cleanser you use is important. I recently tried
