![Great Skincare I No Longer Use - And Why
In this video, Im sharing great skincare I no longer use because I organically stopped reaching for them over other currently more suitable alternatives. These are formulas I still genuinely recommend, but have fallen out of my rotation as my skins needs and my preferences evolve.
As I mentioned, skincare is all about using the right formulas at the right time.
💬 Let me know in the comments: Whats a product you still love but never reach for anymore?
Also apologies for the occasional audio inconsistencies!
