I was scared of retinoids. There, I said it. 😭

The peeling. The irritation. The whole “your skin has to get worse before it gets better” conversation? Yeah… that kept me away for a LONG time.

Then I met the HPR Pro Shot, and now I’m convinced this might be my favorite step in my nighttime routine. 😮‍💨

Because why choose one retinoid when I can have three generations working together?

Retinol 0.05% → texture + wrinkle volume
Retinal 0.1% → brightness + hydration
HPR 0.3% → zero conversion, binding directly with minimal irritation

And then Ectoin + Madecassoside are built into the formula to help protect and calm my barrier.

At 38, I finally understand: I wasn’t afraid of taking care of my skin.

I was waiting for a retinoid routine I could actually feel confident using. 🤎

Nighttime only. Results build with consistency. And the next morning? SPF. Always. ☀️

Your skin can lose water even when you’re doing absolutely nothing. 😭💧

It’s called transepidermal water loss, or TEWL: water naturally moves through the skin and evaporates. And when my barrier isn’t supported? My skin can start feeling dry, tight, and very much not giving what I need it to give.

That’s why my morning routine isn’t just about adding hydration. I want to support my barrier and help hold onto that moisture.

My HPT6 5% system starts with the Ultra Drop for that lightweight reawakening step, with 5% HPT + 2% Matrixyl Synthé’6 to support firmer, bouncier-looking skin.

Then I follow with the HPT6 Cream 5% to give my skin that soft, cushioned moisturizing layer.

Hydrate. Layer. Protect.

Because putting moisture into the skin is cute…

but baby, I’d also like her to stay there. 😂💧

And because it’s morning: SPF always finishes the assignment. ☀️

Cleanse the day off. Let the night shift clock in. 🌙😮‍💨

Makeup, SPF, everything that came with today? Gone. I want clean, dry skin before my HPR Pro Shot enters the chat.

Then it’s HPR + Retinal + Retinol in one nighttime treatment, working across fine lines, texture and dullness while Ectoin + Madecassoside help keep my barrier calm.

For me, this is what a reset looks like:

CLEANSE. RENEW. REST. REPEAT.

No doing the absolute most. Just consistency and letting my nighttime routine prepare my skin for tomorrow. 🤎

And after an HPR night, you already know the morning assignment:

SPF. Non-negotiable. ☀️

Sweet Dreams, but make it Nightcap in Tokyo. 🌙✨

This r.e.m.beauty Sweet Dreams Eyeshadow Quad is giving me exactly what I want from a four pan palette: no filler shades.

Oishii. Bubbles. Sake. Mochi. 💫

Four ultra pigmented, long wearing shadows that can go soft and ethereal or build into something with a little more dimension. And that mix of muted mauves with those light catching finishes? Yeah, I’m already mentally building the look. 👀

Small palette. Full eye look. MUA approved. 🤌🏾

Petal is giving blush and highlight in one swipe and I’m very into that. 🌸✨

The r.e.m.beauty Blush + Highlighter Stick in Petal gives you that marbled mix of color + glow, so you’re getting the flush and luminosity together instead of layering a million products.

One swipe. Blush. Highlight. Glow. Done. 🤌🏾

This feels like one of those “throw it in the bag and use it everywhere” products, and as an MUA, I will always appreciate makeup that knows how to multitask.

Cherry Cola?! r.e.m.beauty knew exactly what they were doing with this one. 🍒🥤🤎

The Blur Butter Blurring Lip Balm gives that soft-focus wash of color while keeping the lips feeling hydrated. And this deep cherry-brown shade on deeper skin? Yeah… she understood the assignment.

Blurred. Hydrated. Effortlessly cool.

This is the kind of lip I throw on when I want it to look like I tried without actually trying. 🤌🏾

The shade Cosmo already sounds like she has plans. 💋✨

The Essential Drip Glossy Balm from r.e.m.beauty is giving that perfect in-between of lip treatment and glossy color. Silky, smooth, a sheer tint, plus hyaluronic acid and pomegranate + passion fruit antioxidants.

Basically: juicy lips, a little color, and skincare energy all in one. Yeah… this one is staying in the bag. 🤌🏾✨

She’s called Treble Maker by r.e.m.beauty … and apparently she does the most. 🎶👀

The brand sent me their Treble Maker 3-in-1 Mascara in Midnight Black, and as a makeup artist, I’m always looking at what a mascara actually promises to DO.

Volume. Lift. Length.
All with each swipe. ✨

And she’s nourishing too? Okayyyy, now you have my attention.

Because if I’m putting on mascara, I don’t want my lashes politely entering the room. I need them to ARRIVE. 😂

Let’s see how much trouble we can make. 🖤

Consider this a love letter to my skin. 🤎
The texture.
The ritual.
The consistency.

The way taking care of my skin has become one of my favorite forms of self-care.

No complicated routine. No fighting my skin.
Just giving it what it needs and letting the formula do its thing.

Because sometimes skincare doesn’t need a whole conversation…
just a little romance. 😮‍💨✨
