Working in the beauty industry is at once exciting, challenging, glamorous, and educational. Being behind-the-scenes at a skincare company, you learn a lot about how to maintain a youthful, healthy-looking glow for an entire lifetime. To continue our quest of sharing the best beauty secrets we know, here is Part Two in our series of skincare tips from the ladies of Mario Badescu Skin Care.
Name: Katie
Age Range: 25-30
Skin Type: Combo/Oily
What is your number one skincare tip? Exfoliate. It doesn't have to be with a harsh grainy scrub either; don't tear your skin apart. I use our Glycolic Foaming Cleanser once a week.
Which Mario Badescu product can’t you live without? I have to pick one favorite MB product? Ok, I absolutely cannot live without our Herbal Hydrating Serum. I cheat and use it in place of a night cream in the summer.
How many skincare products do you think you own? Believe it or not, I don't own that many skincare products. I'm really a minimalist when it comes to my skincare and makeup routine, and I stick to the few things that I like.
Tell us about your skin care habits: I ALWAYS use sun protection!
What’s your biggest skincare pet peeve? Definitely people who pick at their blemishes.
What has working for MB taught you about beauty/skincare/etc.?
Working for Mario has taught me that even if I'm not a crazy skincare and beauty product hoarder, I can use a simple regimen that works for me. My skin has never looked so good!
Name: Djeni
Age Range: 30-40
Skin Type: Combo/Dry
What is your number one skincare tip? Use an Eye Cream. I love keeping the Ceramide Eye Gel in the refrigerator to help with morning puffiness. At night, I turn to the Glycolic Eye Cream to help with crow’s feet!
Which Mario Badescu product can’t you live without? Peptide Renewal Serum
How many skincare products do you think you own? Too many!

Name: Jillian (not pictured)
Age Range: 30-35
Skin Type: Combination-Oily
What is your number one skincare tip? The best way to show off beautiful skin is to find out which products are right for your needs. A lot of people have the bad habit of choosing products because they worked well for someone else. If you're using a cleanser designed for dry skin, but your skin is oily, you won't get the results you want.
Which Mario Badescu product can’t you live without? I absolutely love my AHA & Ceramide Moisturizer.
How many skincare products do you think you own? A lot.
Tell us about your skin care habits: I always make sure that I wash my face before bed, no matter what.
What’s your biggest skincare pet peeve? It really bothers me when people don't wash their face before going to bed.
What has working for MB taught you about beauty/skincare/etc.? That it's possible to help people change their lives through better skin care.
