Age Demographic: 40s-60s
Lifestyle: Family-Oriented, Product Development
Skin Type: Normal to Dry
Kristi's Morning Routine
1. Cleanser
"I start each morning by cleansing my face in the shower. I love our Coconut & Honey Aloe Purifying Cleanser because it gently cleanses and leaves my skin feeling moisturized."
2. Toner
"Next, I spray our Hydrating Facial Toner in my hands and distribute over my face to remove any left impurities. This makes me feel like I am going the extra mile for my skin."
3. Hyaluronic Acid
While my skin is still damp from the toner, I apply 1–2 pumps of our Hyaluronic Acid Serum. I recommend applying in this order because it spreads more evenly than on dry skin.""
4. Vitamin C
"After Hyaluronic Acid, I apply our Vitamin C Serum. These two serums leave my face glowing. I use 1-2 pumps of each and it makes a huge difference in my skin tone."
5. Eye Serum
"To combat tired under eyes, I pat 1 pump of our Eye Serum directly under my eyes. The aloe, vitamin c, and plant stem cells work to brighten and moisturize the delicate skin under your eyes."
6. Moisturizer
"Next I apply our Day & Night Anti-Aging Moisturizer with Matrixyl 3000. This is a powerful peptide complex that is similar to retinol in the fact that it visibly smooths fine lines and wrinkles."
7. Primer
"Before my makeup, it's crucial that I use our primer. This blurs pores and makes your makeup last all day long. The most important step in any makeup routine is priming the canvas, not the actual makeup."
BONUS: Crepe-Ease
"Directly after my shower, I will apply Crepe-Ease to my upper arms, neck, and décolleté. Our Crepe-Ease smells and feels luxurious. It's designed to firm the skin and is a best seller at M.D. Blend!"
Kristi's Night Routine
1. Cleanse
"At night, I wash my face in the shower. This cleanser does a great job of removing my makeup and calming my face after a long day."
2. Toner
"After cleanser, I apply our toner using a cotton round to take off my eye makeup and the rest of the makeup that didn't come off in my shower."
3. Vitamin C
"While my skin is still damp from the toner, I apply our Vitamin C to help brighten dark spots and even out my skin tone. 1-2 pumps goes a long way!"
4. Moisturizer
"After Vitamin C, I lock in the moisture using our peptide infused moisturizer. Overnight, this moisturizer smooths fine lines and helps hydrate the skin."
5. Tallow Eye Cream
"I can't talk too much about this step because it's kind of a secret! Like our other M.D Blend Tallow Creams, this product will feature minimal ingredients and all natural 100% Grass-Fed Tallow. Stay tuned, it's coming soon! "
6. Well + Glow
"Every other night, I use our Well + Glow Facial Oil, which has a plant-based retinol alternative called Bachukiol in it. This product helps me to wake up with hydrated, glowing skin and it works hard to prevent aging skin."
7. Polish
"If you know me, you know I LOVE Polish. I use this enzymatic scrub twice week and it exfoliates the skin while nourishing and replenishing moisture. I love the smell of the fruit enzymes. A true, spa-like product!"
8. Good + Glow
"After Polish, I lock in the moisture with our Good + Glow Body Oil. This body oil makes your skin feel so soft while adding a light, natural shimmer. The CBD calms the skin with it's anti-inflammatory properties, which is an added bonus!"
Taylor's Skincare Routine

Lifestyle: On-The-Go, Brand Strategist + Marketing
Skin Type: Normal to Oily
Taylor's Morning Routine
1. Cleanser
"During my morning shower, I wash my face with our Coconut and Honey Aloe Cleanser. It does a great job of cleansing the skin but being gentle enough for everyday use."
2. Toner
"Our Hydrating Facial Toner is my next step and it removes extra dirt and makeup that I didn't even know was on my skin. I love this step and it leaves my skin feeling so hydrated and clean."
3. Hyaluronic Acid
"While my skin is still damp from the toner, I apply our Hyaluronic Acid Serum. I've tried a few different serums like this and this one is the strongest and most effective that I've tried. I love this step."
4. Vitamin C
"Vitamin C Serum is my favorite product in my routine. I have noticed a huge difference in any acne scaring or sun damage that I have because it helps to lighten dark spots and add overall glow."
5. Tallow
"Because my skin is a bit more on the oily side, I don't use a huge amount of our Tallow on my face during the day. Just a dab in the areas that are a bit more dry, and then I use it as a hand cream throughout the day."
6. Be Glowy
"I love how bronzy and glowy this spray serum makes me look. I'll spray it over my makeup or when I chose not to wear foundation and it evens my skin tone, while adding a natural shimmer. A must-have in my purse!"
7. Allergy + Immune
"I've struggled with seasonal allergies for as long as I can remember and traveling/busy often can lower the immune system. Adding in these supplements daily has been a game changer for my health."
8. Focus
"Our Focus supplement helps me make it through the day on task and energized. It has Ashwagandha which helps to calm the nervous system and help you focus on your tasks. This supplement is a must for me!"
Taylor's Night Routine
1. Cleanser
"To take off my makeup and give my skin an overall cleanse after the day is over, I use our Coconut and Honey Aloe Cleanser. After a long day, this is a great way to relax and start my self-care routine."
2. Toner
"Our Hydrating Facial Toner is crucial in my night routine because it goes the extra mile when taking off makeup. Even if I think I got everything off, it takes off even more and is gentle around the eyes."
3. Well + Glow
"I apply a few drops of our Well + Glow Facial Oil. It's a plant based anti-aging oil that makes me feel like I'm doing something luxurious for my skin. This step isn't complete thought without the use of our Gua Sha!"
4. Gua Sha
"A Gua Sha is vital for me. It glides over the Well+Glow Facial Oil and helps ease any tension in the temple or jaw. It drains lymphatic fluid which builds up throughout the day, causing irritation and puffiness in the face."
5. Tallow Cream
"I love using this Tallow Cream on my hands and on the drier areas of my face. The lavender essential oil in it also helps to calm me as I wind down for the evening. I can also rest easy knowing it only has 5 ingredients, and they are all natural!"
6. Konjac Sponge
"I love using our Body Konjac in the shower to exfoliate my skin. It always leaves my skin more radiant and softer with its dual sided exfoliation side. I use these in combination with any of the soaps from our M.D. Blend line."
7. Allergy + Immune
"I've struggled with seasonal allergies for as long as I can remember and traveling/busy often can lower the immune system. Adding in these supplements daily has been a game changer for my health."
8. Sleep
"I take our Sleep supplement 30 min before I want to be asleep and it works everytime. I've tracked my sleep on my Whoop band and I get significantly better scores with this supplement compared to without."
