Hi! My name is Rachael. I’m 23 and became obsessed with skincare at the age of 22 – after concealing my redness and blemishes with heavy foundation and concealers for a decade, I finally put the makeup aside and started to take better care of my skin.
I have combination, acne-prone skin with hormonal breakouts. My skincare routines focus on healing active breakouts and preventing new ones, reducing redness, and keeping my skin hydrated. My ultimate goal is to achieve skin that I feel comfortable in. After I adopted a skincare regimen that allowed me to achieve my goal, I picked makeup back up – but this time, I’m going for makeup products that enhance my skin, rather than camouflaging it. My blog will focus on my skincare routines, makeup favorites, and product reviews.
Building my skincare routine consisted of months of research and trial and error – but I’m finally here. After graduating with degrees in biology and psychology and the intention of applying to medical school, my passion for skincare led me to return to school to pursue a degree in chemistry. My goal is to become a cosmetic chemist and formulate my own line of skincare products in the future.
In addition to being a complete skincare junkie, I’m addicted to iced coffee, I love dogs, I binge Netflix shows like it’s my job, and I nap way too often.
So excited you’re here with me! Xx
