It takes a good amount of time to love your skincare routine like Issa loves Yvonne here! Lots of time and research goes into it lol. But we can all dream that we get to this point! • • #FTLOM #fortheloveofmelanin #skin #bodycare #skincareroutine #melanin #blackbeauty #brownskin #beautyblogger #skincare #blackwomen #melaninqueens #newskincare #blackisbeautiful #selfcare #womenowned #blackownedskincare #instaskincare #skincareblogger #skincarejunkies #naturalskincare #quarantineskincare #glowingskin #blackgirlmagic #beautybasics #explorepage #selflove #shopblackowned #wocskincare #blackskincareproducts

NO FILTER! FLAWLESS BASE! She used a combination of the Glow Up Toner, Satin Apricot Moisturizer and the Prickly Pear Hyaluronic Acid Serum as her primer before makeup! She lets all three products set into the skin for about 30 minutes and then begins her normal makeup routine! I’ve tagged the bundle that she purchased to make it happen! • #FTLOM #fortheloveofmelanin #skin #flawlessmakeup #skincareroutine #melanin #blackbeauty #brownskin #beautyblogger #skincare #blackwomen #melaninqueens #newskincare #blackisbeautiful #selfcare #womenowned #blackownedskincare #instaskincare #skincareblogger #skincarejunkies #naturalskincare #quarantineskincare #glowingskin #blackgirlmagic #beautybasics #explorepage #selflove #shopblackowned #wocskincare #blackskincareproducts

Took trial and error but I reformulated the Kiwi Glow Serum! Now, the serum contains both aloe vera and hyaluronic acid to provide better anti-aging properties in combination with the Vitamin C! It is also better for all skin types now! The consistency is MUCH better and it still smells like juicy kiwis 🥝 • #FTLOM #fortheloveofmelanin #hyaluronicacid #serums #skincareroutine #melanin #blackbeauty #brownskin #beautyblogger #skincare #blackwomen #melaninqueens #newskincare #blackisbeautiful #selfcare #womenowned #blackownedskincare #instaskincare #skincareblogger #skincarejunkies #naturalskincare #quarantineskincare #glowingskin #blackgirlmagic #beautybasics #explorepage #selflove #shopblackowned #wocskincare #blackskincareproducts

STAY HYDRATED! The stale and recycled air in our homes during the quarantine will dry you OUT! I highly encourage having a hyaluronic acid serum to help keep your skin hydrated. Tap photo for link to FTLOM Shop link! • Hyaluronic acid is a MOISTURE MAGNET! It literally draws moisture so before applying, make sure you make sure your face is moist or mist with your favorite toner. Then you’ll apply your hyaluronic acid serum and your skin will be luscious and plump! Always remember to mist again after applying serum to face! • 📸: chelseajowhite • #FTLOM #fortheloveofmelanin #skin #stayhome #skincareroutine #melanin #blackbeauty #brownskin #beautyblogger #skincare #blackwomen #melaninqueens #newskincare #blackisbeautiful #selfcare #womenowned #blackownedskincare #instaskincare #skincareblogger #skincarejunkies #naturalskincare #quarantineskincare #glowingskin #blackgirlmagic #beautybasics #explorepage #selflove #shopblackowned #wocskincare #blackskincareproducts

WHY DOES FTLOM USE AMBER CONTAINERS? • Other than being the signature colors for the brand, FTLOM uses amber colored containers for all the skincare products because the amber color offers excellent UV light protection by absorbing nearly all radiation from wavelengths shorter than 450 NM. Most people do not know but when your skincare products are in clear glass/plastic containers, they are more susceptible to degradation from the sun and easily deactivated by that UV light that hits them. Amber glass and plastic containers help to retain the integrity of all FTLOM products! • • • #FTLOM #fortheloveofmelanin #skin #bodycare #skincareroutine #melanin #blackbeauty #brownskin #beautyblogger #skincare #blackwomen #melaninqueens #newskincare #blackisbeautiful #selfcare #womenowned #blackownedskincare #instaskincare #skincareblogger #skincarejunkies #naturalskincare #quarantineskincare #glowingskin #blackgirlmagic #beautybasics #explorepage #selflove #shopblackowned #wocskincare #blackskincareproducts
