Assalamualaikum and hi beauties!
Lately, I’ve been on a mission to revamp my acne type skincare routine—but without breaking the bank. After doing some research (hours of research 😅), I finally picked up a new set of products that are not only affordable but also have great reviews. Here’s a little peek into my current skincare lineup:
✨ Wardah Perfect Bright Face Wash 🛒 Shop
This face wash gives a gentle cleanse without making my skin feel tight. It helps remove excess oil and dullness—perfect for daily use. There's a blueberry smell after face wash, i like it.
🌊 Wardah Lightening Face Toner 🛒 Shop
I love how refreshing this toner feels! A few drops on the cotton pad, and it preps my skin nicely after cleansing and has brightening properties too.
☀️ Wardah Aqua Fresh Sunscreen Serum SPF 50+ 🛒 Shop
A two-in-one win! It’s lightweight, non-sticky, great smell, no white cast as well and gives great sun protection while keeping my skin hydrated. For my muslimah buddies, this sunscreen is easily remove, as it is not a waterproof sunscreen, and can be wash with water only a few times, and we are good to take wudu'. Thank me later.
💧 Glad2Glow Niacinamide Power Bright Serum 🛒 Shop
Super affordable and surprisingly effective. It helps reduce dullness and evens out my skin tone.
🌿 Alia Salicylic Acid 0.5% Moisturiser 🛒 Shop
This one's great for keeping acne at bay while still hydrating my skin. Very gentle too!
🌟 Safi Youth Gold Retinol 🛒 Shop
My first time trying retinol. It’s beginner-friendly and so far no irritation. I’m excited to see long-term results! It does not sting too.
Done exposing my skincare product, so move on to some of my routine for my acne skin type, hope it helps.
🌞 Morning Routine
- Face wash – Coin-sized amount
- Toner – Apply with hands (pat in) or cotton pad (swipe gently)
- Niacinamide serum – 2–3 drops or pea-sized
- Salicylic moisturizer – Pea to nickel-sized
- Sunscreen – Two fingers length (index + middle)
💡 Toner Tip:
If it's hydrating, it helps prep the skin for serums.
If it's exfoliating, avoid using it with retinol or harsh acids.
🌙 Night Routine
- Face wash – Cleanse away dirt and sunscreen.
- Retinol – Apply on dry skin; use only 2–3 times per week if you're new to it.
- Niacinamide serum – Use after retinol to soothe and support skin barrier.
- Salicylic moisturizer – Lock in moisture and target acne.
Another tips, i use a small hand fan to help the product absorbs (tap2 your skin) & dry faster, especially during the working days when we got less time to do skin prep before make up.
