Anyone who knows me is aware of the fact that I am skincare obsessed. It’s taken me years to find a routine/regimen that works for me and my (dry) skin type. While I’ve luckily never suffered from major skin concerns, I’ve definitely gone through a ton of products that I felt wasn’t effective and I just overall didn’t love. This blog is written after using the products for about a week. I’ll share more insight into how the personalized products work, as well as my opinions on the products that I’ve been using for my specific regimen.
When Skinsei reached out, of course, I was immediately intrigued. I hadn’t heard of it before, but I was quickly enticed by their personalized, custom 5-piece regimen. By filling out a diagnostic quiz on their website, the brand is able to factor in several lifestyle factors, unique to you. This includes: your environment, your nutrition, your exercise regimen, sleep, then location-based factors such as climate, UV and air quality (based on how much time you spend outdoors or in sunlight). Additionally, it asks what your primary skin concern is. Mine was dryness. Lastly, they take a selfie of your skin (I was blown away by this step – and my photo was one I hope never surfaces, lol!) From there, they build your bioprint, mine shown below. For Chicago, the diagnostic reported back with, “What this means for your skin: Perfect weather for your skin but it is still dry so action is needed to try to get your skin back to being soft and smooth. Microbiome friendly cleansing and a good moisturizer topped up with an Essence or Mask will help your dry skin return to amazing.”
From here, I was given my focus points, which led to the products recommended in my regimen. The bioprint, listed above, is a unique skin map which shows your key focus areas.The regimen came with a complete outline of the order of application, and the purpose each serves. I was immediately impressed upon receiving my package. The diagnostic already proved Skinsei was an extremely thorough brand, but the packaging really solidified that.
Here are the steps to my complete regimen and what I’m loving!
Cleansing milk, Under the Milkway No 235
As someone who’s always been told to purchase cream based cleansers, not gels, this is PERFECT for me. It really feels like it cleans my skin without drying it out. It’s great at cleansing my skin from any make-up and I really love how it smells too.
Essence, Thirsty Face No 615
I never used an essence before this. I had only used toner! It feels like such an effective layer to get my skin ready for all other products that follow. Hence the name, thirsty face ;).
Hydrating serum, Dew Your Thing No 812
Not gonna lie, I didn’t really use a serum consistently before this, and now i’m OBSESSED. It adds such a dewy and hydrated layer to my skin without feeling thick or like it clogs my pores. It’s intended to help with high UV levels that can dry out and age my skin. It also helps me retain mre moisture througohut the day, and boosts my skin’s antioxidant defense system against UV damage!
SPF moisturizer lotion, Throwing Shade No 360
I always try to use sunscreen during the day, but as it gets colder and greyer, it’s hard to forget this as an essential part of my routine. I LOVE how this moisturizer has SPF 30 in it, and it feels so nice and nourishing on my skin. It’s super creamy and hydrating without feeling heavy, and smells good too — they all smell the same and clearly I love it. It protects from UV, Blue light, and my helps with my dryness!
Body wash Rock the Boat No 489
This body wash is intended to cleanse after vigorous exercise, based on my bioprint. This product is more gel-like than creamy, which is new to me compred to my previous body wash, but it really does make my skin feel SO fresh and clean.
It’s safe to say, I’m blown away by these products at first glance. Some of them are new to me, so of course I am adjusting to using them, but my skin has felt and looked so good and hydrated since the start. I think Skinsei is one of the smartest, high-tech skincare solutions I’ve ever experienced, and I would LOVE for you to try it and see how your uniquely customized regimen works for you. I think it would make a great holiday gift! Code Morgan20 saves you 20% when ordering from the Skinsei website.
