Glowing Skin is a vibe

The Night Garden: My TIRTIR + Medicube + DALBA Skincare Ritual

“Skincare is my nightly meditation — a rhythm of renewal, repair, and glow.”

Why Actives Matter After 35

If you’re 35 or older, incorporating active ingredients like retinoids is essential. They stimulate collagen, smooth fine lines, and help maintain elasticity. Using them correctly with hydration and serums ensures your skin is nourished, plump, and radiant without irritation.

Step 1 — Cleanse

Begin with your favorite gentle cleanser to remove impurities, makeup, and the day’s stress. Clean skin sets the stage for every serum and mask to work its magic.

Step 2 — D'ALBA White Truffle Spray Serum

A mist of luxury: this truffle-infused serum spray gives instant hydration and glow. It primes the skin beautifully for toners and serums to follow.

Step 3 — TIRTIR Milk Skin Toner

Next, I layer on this hydrating, soothing toner. Niacinamide, ceramide, and rice-bran extract give calm, plump, hydrated skin ready for deeper treatment.

Step 4 — Medicube AGE-R Glutathione Glow Serum

Brightening and restorative, this serum evens tone and adds luminous glow.

Step 5 — Hyaluronic Acid

Hydration is key when using actives. Apply hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture and prepare your skin for retinoids.

Step 6 — Retinol / Retinoid

After waiting about 15–30 minutes for serums to absorb fully, apply your retinoid. This is the active powerhouse that boosts collagen, smooths fine lines, and helps maintain elasticity. If you can wait longer before the next step, even better — your skin will soak in all the goodness.

Step 7 — Seal with Collagen

Finish your ritual by locking in all hydration and actives with:

• Medicube Collagen Jelly Cream — soft, plump, and perfect after devices or retinol.

• OR Medicube Collagen Wrap-Around Mask — a richer option for intense hydration and overnight repair.

💧 Amazon price (Jelly Cream): ~$14.90

Step 8 — Optional: Salmon PDRN Sheet Mask (Monthly Treat)

Once a month, for maximum plumpness and glow, pair the Medicube Salmon PDRN Sheet Mask with your Pink Peptide Serum. It’s a luxurious spa-like treatment that takes your routine to the next level.
