Why I Ditched The 10-Step Routine

Why I Ditched The 10-Step Routine

From Overwhelmed to Intentional 

Skincare isn't supposed to feel like a chore or a chemistry lesson. Somewhere along the way, the industry convinced us more was more. But more steps don't always mean better skin — especially when the ingredients overlap, irritate, or cancel each other out. 

I wanted something simple. Something that worked. Something that felt good to use. 

Why the Face Oil Stayed (When Everything Else Didn't)

The CIRCA 1970 Face Oil is that rare product that checks every box:

  • Non-comedogenic, so it never clogs my pores
  • Lightweight, but deeply nourishing
  • Balanced, not greasy — and absorbs like a dream
  • Pack with plant-powered actives that actually have purpose

It's the first oil I have ever used that makes my skin look like I drink enough water and sleep 8 hours — and normally, I don't!

The 5-Second Ritual That Changed My Skin

Now my routine is simple: 

  1. Cleanse (if I wore makeup or SPF)
  2. Apply 4-5 drops of the oil
  3. Done

No Layering. No waiting between steps. Just skin that looks better with less. 

A Shelf That Reflects My Values

In tossing the clutter, I didn't just gain counter space — I gained clarity. CIRCA 1970 is rooted in the kind of skincare I want more of: clean, intentional, beautifully made, and grounded in decades of real skin expertise. 

It's not about perfection. It's about presence. And consistency. 

And this bottle? It's stayed in my routine longer thn any other product I've owned. 

Curious what life looks like with one perfect product?
