Hi, I’m Rachael! I’m a 25-year-old skincare enthusiast from Las Vegas, Nevada. I became heavily invested in my skin at the age of 22, when I was battling constant breakouts and attempting to camouflage my skin with full-coverage foundations and concealers. After a few months of building a solid routine, I made it my New Years Resolution in 2018 to start Skincare Standard and share my routine and product reviews with others. Two years later, I’ve been able to connect with so many likeminded beauty addicts, find a skincare routine that works for me, play with makeup and fragrance to boost my confidence, and have had the opportunity to work with an abundance of amazing brands.
For a quick rundown on my skin, in case you’re wondering – I have combination skin and live in a dry/desert climate. My main skin concerns include regular and hormonal breakouts, redness, and dehydration. I focus on gently exfoliating my skin to reduce breakouts and texture while maintaining a healthy and hydrated skin barrier. For makeup, I’m into light coverage bases that enhance my skin rather than mask it, as well as a fluffy brow and a peachy cheek with a dewy highlight.
I’m so grateful for those who take the time to read my reviews, request tutorials, ask for my opinion, and support my content – it makes blogging and creating content so easy and much more enjoyable!
