Getting your skin super glowy starts within, and your lifestyle habits will significantly impact your skin. You guys know I am skincare obsessed with everything that helps give you that beautiful glow. So in today's blog post, I will go over my current summer skincare routine and everything I use to keep my skin plump, hydrated and happy.
Lifestyle Habits
Drink 2L of water a day (this chic water bottle makes it easy)
Keep a humidifier running day and night- I love this one.
Fish Oil Supplements- not only are they incredible for your brain, but they are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which can improve your skin health. These are my favourites.

As I mentioned above, I do skin cycling, which means the following:
Night 1- Exfoliation
Night 2- Retinol
Night 3- Recover
Night 4- Recover
repeat
Skin cycling is a four-day cycle where you use specific products on different nights throughout the week. It lets your skin get the most out of your evening skincare routine. Doing the same routine every day/night doesn't allow your skin to recover, so you need to cycle through the active ingredients so they don't disrupt your skin's natural barrier and microbiome. I learned all about this from Dr. Whitney Bowe, and it has literally *transformed* my skin.
