Skin care routine

Anyone here (especially ladies) have a solid skin care routine they like? Specifically preventative aging routine that doesn’t involve retinol creams

Nyck Star Gel

Raw Honey Cleanse (leave on for 15min - I do my coco oil pulling simultanously)
(in general; your skin ph-level is around 5-6 so dont use soda, or anything soapy)
(optional)
a) Skin Peeling 1x a week with coffee grind (finely grinded! please dont bruise your skin; am looking for an alternative rn for that reason)
b) Jojoba Face Massage (am planning to add some Vit E to that next)
c) Green tea/Chamomile/Calendula/Rosewater soaked cotton pads on sensitive areas
Salicylic Acid Serum
10% Niacinamide Serum + 1% Zinc
organic, grass-fed Beef Tallow Moisturizer (+ Coco Oil, Jojoba, Lanolin/Beeswax; some essential oils maybe)
Lip Balm (Shea/Cacao butter + Coco oil + some Honey + some Beeswax + some dark chocolate + essentials to your likings)

& Gelatine and Coq-10 Supplementation to aid anti-age effects from within
& Occasionally Vit C + Mg during the day (dont apply shortly after B3 or Salicylic Acid!)

For my Body I usually apply a cream after showering (Shea/Cacao+Coco+Jojoba; sometimes fresh Aloe) + the occasional Vit C, E & Mg spray;
Shea butter + Essentials + a bit of baking soda is quite a efficient deodorant

Everything is DIY & my cheeks feel like a soft peach :3

I have come to believe it’s 90 percent about my gut health and metabolic health

@Nyck-Star-Gel thanks this is great!! How do you make the niacinamide and zinc serum?

Nyck Star Gel

@mariatheresa For 100ml you would need

10g niacinamide ph. eur.
1g zinc PCA
ca. 85ml clean, filtered, distilled water as base
(you could also use rosewater but that might reduce its shelf-life idk; make sure to heat it up 80°C)
add ingredients once its cooled down, whisk & store in 30ml bottles
