Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Water

This is one of my go-to makeup removers, especially for sensitive or reactive skin. It removes makeup and impurities without stripping the skin or leaving that tight, dry feeling. I love that it’s gentle enough to use around the eyes and doesn’t sting, which makes it perfect for both daily use. It’s a staple I reach for when I want the skin to feel clean, calm, and balanced — not irritated. How to use:

Saturate a cotton pad with micellar water, apply to the face, and gently remove makeup.

Follow with a facial cleanser. This is not a standalone cleanser.

La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5

This is one of my go-to products for soothing and repairing the skin barrier. I love it for dry, irritated, or over-treated skin, and it’s especially helpful when the skin needs calming rather than actives. It has a rich texture but feels comforting, not heavy, and works well for both face and body.

How I use it:

I use this at night only. After removing makeup and cleansing, I apply my serum and moisturizer, then use this as the final step. This isn’t something I use every day — only when my skin feels very dry or irritated and needs extra hydration. I apply a thicker layer and let it absorb before going to bed.
