Best of all, this regimen works even when you've been
staying up too late. Try the exact products we used to achieve a bright,
beautiful complexion.

Like most women, we like to change up our skincare regimens and beauty routines every so often, and those shifts are usually inspired by the words of someone who claims that a specific product is her new favorite. We layer serums with moisturizers and facial sprays with sleep masks
in hopes that it will result in flawless, glowing skin. Sometimes these
changes work, but more often than not a new routine does nothing at
all. That's why it's especially exciting when you stumble across a set
of beauty buys that, together, work as simple and effective regimen for fresh, dewy skin. That's exactly what happened to us.
Without really trying, we came upon a regimen that seemed to deliver a glowing complexion with minimal effort, so we put it to the test and asked a few other women to give it a try, too. The result? Amazing, luminous skin, even at the end of a few long days that included too little sleep and too much sugar. And if several women swear they ended the day with a face that looks just as fresh and bright as it did upon waking, you know you're on to something great.
[post_ads]Luckily, we're not going to keep it all to ourselves. Here, we share the simple, effective beauty routine we've come to rely on daily. Best of all, it works in a pinch, so whether your guy just popped the question and you need to freshen up for an impromptu engagement party or you're looking for a low-maintenance everyday regimen, this series of seven products is just what you need. Click through here to see the products that make the it happen.
In the morning, wash your face with this completely
natural, Vitamin C-infused cleansing oil, as it doesn't strip your skin
but leaves it healthy and hydrated. In the evening, we first remove
makeup with our favorite argan oil, then followed with this cleansing
oil once again to get rid of any remaining oil and make sure all of our
makeup has been removed. Both of these products, we've found, complement
each other well.

Next up is this facial spray, which helps to gently tone
and increase radiance. Plus, it's just fun to use, and the scent can't
be beat.

Depending upon what we feel our skin needs on any
particular day (light or heavy hydration) we'll use either Kenzo's Belle
de Jour Sacred Lotus Face Oil, or the corresponding Lotus Face
Cream—both of which help to plump and add vitality to our complexions.

We're obsessed with Benefit's slew of concealers. We use
the hydrating concealer on blemishes (it works well because it doesn't
cake, but seamlessly covers them) and the brightening concealer for
undereye circles.

an extra dose of antioxidants to the skin, this product is a must-have.

For your everyday look, you want just a subtle amount of
color on your lips, and this product delivers just that. Plus, it's also
sheer and super moisturizing. You can even add a few dabs to our cheeks
for a natural-looking flush.

touch—apply a light dusting of Tarte's powder blush in Doll Face. Then
you're ready to go.
