How to Shop by Building a Routine

If your skincare lineup could use a little structure (or you just love a good system), start here. From minimalist to full routine, we’ve mapped out exactly how to build your glow without the guesswork.

 

Step 1: The Minimalist Kit

For anyone who wants the most results with the fewest steps, meet the Minimalist Kit:

  • Toning Pads → Smooth, clear, and prep your skin so everything after works better.
  • Overachiever → A multitasking peptide and antioxidant serum that firms, hydrates, and refines texture.

Together, they’re the skincare equivalent of hot cocoa and marshmallows: simple, satisfying, and effective.

 

Step 2: The Core 4 Routine

Ready to go all in on optimal skin health? The Barefaced Core 4 is the foundation for longevity, health, and radiance across ALL skin types:

  • Toning Pads (or TPII) → Gentle exfoliation for smoother, more refined skin.
  • Liquid Gold → Brightens and strengthens with daily antioxidant protection (your routine’s secret weapon).
  • RetinAL Skin Therapy → Helps stimulate cell turnover for firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
  • SPF → The finishing step that protects all your progress.

The Core 4 covers it all: protect, prevent, correct, and repair. It’s the routine that keeps your skin glowing through every season.

Pregnant or extremely retinoid-sensitive? The Core 4 Retinoid Alternative swaps RetinAL Skin Therapy for Overachiever. You’ll still get firming, brightening, and hydrating benefits with a gentler touch.

 

Step 3: Add-On Boosters

Once you’ve nailed your foundation, add a few favorites for that “wow, your skin looks amazing” energy:

  • Brightening Serum → Evens tone, fades dark spots, and boosts radiance like holiday lights.
  • Oilplaning with the Shaving Kit → Use the Allure Best of Beauty winner Perfectionist Oil and Facial Razor for the smoothest, softest exfoliation of your life.
  • Hydrating Lotion → Locks everything in with a silky, lightweight finish for lasting moisture.
  • Clean Slate Spritz → Cleanses, calms, and hydrates on the go between your AM and PM routines.


How to Shop by Skin Concern

Tis the season for giving…your skin what it needs.

If your skin feels dull or uneven:

If your skin feels dry or tight:

If your skin is breakout-prone or textured:

  • Toning Pads II to unclog pores and smooth texture.
  • Liquid Gold for gentle antioxidant repair.
  • RetinAL Skin Therapy to promote renewal and prevent congestion.
  • Clean Slate Spritz to calm and clarify throughout the day.

If your skin is sensitive or reactive:

  • Start gentle with Overachiever, Hydrating Lotion, and Clean Slate Spritz.
  • Once your barrier feels stronger, ease in Toning Pads 1–3 times per week for a clearer, more even glow and increase as tolerated.


Keep it for Self-Care or Share 

Know someone is a Barefaced fan but not sure what products they love? That’s where gift cards come in. It’s a foolproof way to share the glow without stressing over the details. Guarantee good skin days ahead, no wrapping required. (Little pro tip for y’all too: Send this blog to your significant other. We won’t tell.)

So pour a peppermint latte, pop on your coziest playlist, make your list and check your cart twice, because when it comes to your skin, we’re here to help it make the nice list this year.
