I am a mostly silicone-free skincare gal, as I realized that was contributing to my clogged pores. I have slightly sensitive skin and try to stay away from fragrance, but I am typically fine with actives such as BHAs/AHAs and retinols when not used more than 2-3x a week. I live in the Tampa Bay area so my climate is very hot, sunny, humid, moist, and full of allergens (i'm literally allergic to grass fml).

I am a (mostly) silicone-free skincare gal, as I realized that was contributing to my clogged pores (specifically dimethicone). I have sensitive skin and try to stay away from fragrance, but I am typically fine with actives such as BHAs/AHAs and retinols when not used more than 1-2x a week. Feel free to ask questions in the comments!
