On any given day, my routine goes like this: exfoliate, rinse, moisturize. It’s standard—I’m not trying to reinvent the wheel here. But more recently, I’ve had to amp it up a little, thanks to skin still dehydrated from the winter and a rapidly approaching summer. So now my morning looks a little more like exfoliate aggressively, rinse, moisturize, re-moisturize, skip an hour, go back and reassess whether more lotion/cream/other hydration agent is needed. Ah, the perks of working from home.
