Honest Review of Primally Pure Skincare (Not Sponsored!) — the foundation blog

Good morning, fellow skincare enthusiasts! 

Before we jump in, I have to be honest about something.

It feels hilarious to me that I, Kate Eskuri, have become somewhat of a clean skincare guru because, to be honest, I was that girl at the slumber party (you know the one…) who would wash her face with like a pump of dawn dish soap by the sink or something.

It’s safe to say that for the bulk of my life, my skincare routine consisted of that one orange bottle of ~Clean AnD CleAr~ microbeads cleanser (again, you know the one…) and a “toner” that would positively make me feel like my face was burning off. ◡̈ ◡̈ ◡̈ ◡̈ ◡̈

Ahhhhh, pre-pubescent bliss.

But, thankfully, with a few more years under my belt and the realization that skin is one of the only thing we wear foreverrrrr (and that my skincare routine didn’t have to physically HURT?!?!), I have learned to invest in quality, nourishing products for my skin.

And, the result? My skin has NEVER been better.

THIS has been my morning skincare routine for….. 4 (!) straight years

But, let’s first talk about how I got here— after years of “meh” skin, I decided to finally upgrade my routine.

It started with a simple (but impactful) lineup of nontoxic, quality skincare goodies that verrrry quickly took my “good enough” skin to GREAT. (I felt like I had the airbrushed version of my skin, ha!)

And writing this post had me arrive at the mind-blowing realization that my morning skincare routine has remained virtually unchanged for….. over 4 years now?!  I recently peeked back at one of my first ever blog posts, and realized that my skincare routine is…… 85% the same. There’s been some minor updates in as specific serums/sprays have been updated— but in general, same formula. same brand. same typa products.

Nearly identical to FOUR years ago. Like, what?!

Now, I know what you might be thinking: “How boring!” 

But hear me out, because there’s a reason why I’ve stuck with the same simple routine for so long:

• 1) It’s made with non-toxic & all-natural ingredients (So. Important. If you want to learn more about the science behind why clean products matter for our health, click this evidence-backed summary I did here!), 

• 2) It’s simple & straight-forward (because WHO has time for 32389483-step routine?! Not me.), and 

• 3) Most importantly, it works! (At risk of sounding conceded, I do feel that my skin has a consistent glow thanks to *this* lineup. )

So sit back, relax, and let’s dive into the world of skincare routines that stand the test of time.
