Self-care has always been something I value, and I’m doing my best to keep it in my regular routine. Tensions are high and we’re all experiencing stress, so there’s no better reason to calm down and have some good, old-fashioned “me time.” Having time in the evenings to breathe, relax, and feel refreshed is essential for me to stay calm. This is when I’m usually doing skincare, which is a calming act for me that establishes routine (especially during these crazy times!). I’ve begun integrating and experimenting with natural beauty products, like the line at Farmacy, and I feel like they’re allowing me to enjoy this time with myself more. Elements like clean formulas and ingredients are just an added bonus!

Being indoors all the time gives everyone plenty of time to perfect their skincare. After all, who wouldn’t want to come out of this quarantine with glowing, bright skin? For me, slowing down and hitting that “pause button” isn’t something I’ve always had time for. Now, I find myself doing it more often—and Farmacy’s been a big part of that when it comes to my evening “skincare time.” I especially love the Green Clean dual cleanser-makeup remover and Honeymoon Glow before I go to bed, which you can even find (or, I guess, order?) at Sephora. I’ve felt truly refreshed and ready to face the day after using them, which was a nice surprise after adding them to my routine! 

If you’re thinking of using natural beauty for skincare, need to change your routine, or are just looking for a soothing product or two during this time, look no further than Farmacy. I’ve even reviewed my favorites, so that you know exactly what they do and why I love them so much!

Green Clean

This balm is a cleanser and makeup remover at the same time, which saves me from having too many steps in my routine. Plus, my skin feels super hydrated after I’ve used it!

Honeymoon Glow

This is perfect for anyone with acne or aging skin to get clarity and a healthy glow. I like to spread a few drops around my face, just before I put on my moisturizer. I’ve noticed a truly natural glow in my skin when I’ve woken up, which makes me feel confident to face whatever the day will throw my way!

Cheer Up

This cream is rich in Vitamin C, which I love for reducing dark circles and preventing wrinkles around my eyes!
