Makeup is fun but skincare is essential to maintaining beautiful skin! Watch Mented Co-founders Amanda E. Johnson and KJ Miller show how they keep their skin healthy with their day and night face prep.
Amanda’s Morning Prep
Step 1 - Cleanse
Kiehl's Clearly Corrective Brightening & Exfoliating Daily Cleanser: This cleanser is great for everyday. It has pearlstone to provide a gentle exfoliation and leaves you feeling brighten and refreshed.
Step 2 - Tone
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water: This cleanser works as a toner too! It’s perfect for sealing up the pores.
Step 3 - Moisturize
Neutrogena® Hydro Boost Water Gel: The perfect lightweight moisturizer to firm the skin. This moisturizer has a nice lifting effect.
Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturizer: Amanda uses this mainly in the winter to maintain the moisture. It has broad spectrum SPF to protect skin of all types and leaves skin feeling smooth and light.
KJ’s Evening Prep
Step 1 - Makeup Removal
Vaseline: Kj swears by an inexpensive but popular product that most of us have, Vaseline! This petroleum jelly is effective in removing makeup without stripping or irritating the skin. This is the perfect solution for those with drier skin types.
Step 2 - Cleanse
Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser: This cleanser softly cleans the skin and is suitable for all skin types.
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water: This cleansing water has taken off by storm for good reason. It deeply cleanses by removing dirt and oils from pores. Kj uses this whenever she has worn a full face of makeup and needs a thorough cleanser.
Step 3 - Moisturize
Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream: During the winter months or dryer climates you may be looking for a moisturizer that is a bit heavier for maximum hydration. This cream will be your perfect match. Kj prefers this cream because it deeply moistures and works well on sensitive skin.
