Current Skincare Routine (June 2015) ☀️

Hello readers! I hope you're all having a good day, do you have anything fun planned for the Summer? Let me know in the comments.
Today I'm going to share my skincare routine with you. As you know I love me some skincare, so here is what I'm currently using!

Cleansers:
Andalou Naturals Apricot Probiotic Cleansing Milk- This is my Mom's but Ive had this myself before and she hardly uses it. This is a very light cleanser that is a creamy texture and great for sensitive skin. It smells fruity and is non-irritating. It's best for me in the cooler months so I only use it if I want a very light cleanse.
Pacifica Sea Foam- This is a great Summer cleanser! It smells like coconut. It removes face makeup well (keep in mine I don't use a lot of face makeup, normally just BB cream and concealer). It cleanses well without drying my skin out, which had been very hard for me to find.

Scrub:
Acure Brightening Scrub- I use this about 1 to 2 times a week so I don't over exfoliate my skin. Since I have right much acne scarring I like to have some brightening products. I feel like all together they have helped my scars. This is a nice scrub that isn't too harsh, the pieces are fine enough to do any damage to my skin.

Konjac Sponge-
This one is from Eco Tools. It's great for if you don't want to use a cleanser, you can just use this to wash your face and it still does the trick. It's actually very pleasant to use, it doesn't feel like a dish sponge or anything. Haha!

Serums:
Eco Makes Perfect Rose Serum- This is actually one of my own products! It smells like roses and has lots of good anti inflammatory and soothing properties. It's light enough for morning but you could totally add more at night for an extra boost.
Yellow House Soap Company- This too is a local product. I love the orange color of this, that's sea buckthorn oil which is great for brightening. This serum is lighter than the EMP Rose Serum, so it's perfect for summertime! 
Sibu Sea Buckthorn Seed Oil- This is just pure sea buckthorn seed oil which isn't as yellow as the sea buckthorn fruit oil but is still brightening, although this is a very small bottle so I don't use this one as much as the other 2. It's once again light but of course you can add more for drier skin.

(Yes, I do have a lot of moisturizers, I'm gonna be trying to minimize my routine after I use some things up.)

Moisturizers:
John Masters Organics Rose and Apricot Day Cream- I love the simplicity of this packaging. a plan brown glass bottle with a basic label. This smells light and lovely and is very light in texture as well. This is great for summer as well, being so light and readily absorbed. It goes fairly quick though.
Acure Day Cream- I do love acure and this product is no exception! The smell is kind of citrusy, which of course I love, being a fruit lover. :) It's light enough for summer but moisturizing enough to well...moisturize! I have a feeling I'll be getting this again when I run out.
Mychelle SPF- I'm actually not crazy about this on its own, BUT, I do mix it with either one of my moisturizers or my Pacifica BB Cream and it works just fine. A little goes a long, LONG way. If you use too much it is very white and chalky but I've found a way to work with it.

Extras:
Almond or Coconut Oil- I use either one of these to remove eye makeup. Almond for light makeup, coconut for heavier, or which ever one is closest to me.
Shea Butter- I use this in the winter for dry skin but I also use this when I get a flare of dermatitis. I had a little on my chin right under my lip a few days ago and now it's almost gone thanks to this lovely butter.
