Curating a Skincare Routine

As a new member to Intoxicated Cosmetics on the marketing team, I have been settling into a routine for my role. However, the past month there were also days where I felt “lost” in the feed and what I needed to get done! This is what a lack of structure and a lack of routine can make you feel. Much like life, our skin also needs a routine!

When I first started, I was fresh with many ideas and creative directions to take Intoxicated Cosmetics. But as time went on, without organization, I felt stuck in my productivity and what I needed to do. The solution? Thinking about what I needed and what Intoxicated Cosmetics needed me to do. So, I talked to Rachel about my concerns, and we created a list of tasks that I needed to complete weekly, and a routine to help me stay on track.

Before we dive in, we need to know what our skin needs so we can go forward with a routine. I recommend checking out our blog post, How to Determine Your Skin Type if you need guidance on your skin type before choosing a routine that’s right for you. 

Now that you know what your skin needs, you can begin to curate a routine that meets those needs! We get many questions about when to use our products in the routine. If you’re ever overwhelmed by the options, our bundles were made to help you with a complete skin care routine. 

If you want to incorporate Intoxicated Cosmetics into your current skincare routine, keep reading for some suggestions to common questions about routines!
