'SKINFLUENCERS' I AM FOLLOWING AND YOU SHOULD TOO | TOP 5


- Disclaimer: These recommendations are not skin expert referrals, 
only a push for the people I follow who know a thing or two on skin care  -

Today I thought I'd share some of my favorite skin care influencers flourishing on their Instagram pages with content, some have Youtube channels, etc...

Since I've been paying more attention to my skin lately with all of this free time the move is to reverse the amount of aging graduate school has put me through. I'm looking into products, watching reviews/regimen videos, and I'm soon going to invest in a regular esthetician to get me right and tight finally in these streets.

Hopefully some of my shares today will appear new to you so this won't just be a boring layout of people you already know. I hope they inspire you as well!


 @mixedmakeup / @susanyara

Susan Yara is the face behind Mixed Makeup that's why I included both IG pages. Although you'll find me on her Youtube channel the most if anything. My favorite videos are her critiques of skin care routines whether night time or morning, she'll go in. I've learned quite a bit from her and even made some purchases of her suggestions.

② @helloavabeauty

HelloAva is more a company than just one influencer on social media. Their Instagram posts do provide some insight though and they are creative.

③ @farafincare 

Farafin Care is fairly new started by a friend of mine. She's an influencer in her own right. I can see where she's going with her page and already she's a top five fave on Melanin Skin Care specifically. Maybe I'm biased but check her out yourself.

 @thegoldenrxskinstudio / @labeautyologist 

Nayamka Roberts-Smith the Los Angeles based esthetician/facialist (& woman of color 💪🏽) is another good Youtuber I've been stuck on through this journey. She's also very vocal on her Twitter page @LABeautyologist

⑤ @babeandbeauty 

Babe + Beauty is ran by Dana an esthetician educating on her Instagram page, her blog, and Youtube channel about the physiology of the skin, chemistry of ingredients in products and using healthier beauty/wellness options. Like everyone else her work is just appealing and aesthetically pleasing to the eyes.
