Being a mom takes a toll on your skin. For one thing, you are perpetually exhausted, which can cause dark circles and tired-looking eyes. And chances are you are also dehydrated, which can cause your skin to look sallow and dull.
But here's the good news: There are tons of products and devices that work to combat those things to leave you with bright and radiant skin.
Here are a few I've personally tested (and love). As a mom to two boys, ages 10 and 7, it's been many years of me trying to get that pregnancy, or pre-pregnancy glow back. And while my face will never look the same (I'm OK with that), there are certain things I rely on to help me feel and look my best. Check them out here.
NuFace Mini
I went back and forth on this device for a while because it's not cheap. When I finally did check out of the cart it had been sitting in for months, I instantly felt excited to try. I was not disappointed.
This device uses microcurrents to minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles while giving your face a lift. You have to use it consistently to see results, but the effort is totally worth it.
If you don't want to splurge on the full size, opt for this smaller and more affordable option.
The Detox Market Super Chill Facial Pill
$12
from
The Detox Market
A girlfriend of mine recently told me to start icing my face each morning to de-puff and wake up my skin. Rather than scoop ice cubes out of the freezer, I bought this silicone ice mold.
It's very easy to use: Just close it up, add water, freeze it, and use. As a tip, add your favorite essential oils to give you serious spa vibes.
Aztec Secret Clay Mask
My mother used this mask every week when I was growing up. So I was surprised to see that it recently went viral. If you can get over the smell of apple cider vinegar and the intense feeling of your face pulsating, the results will truly amaze you.
When I feel like my face needs a deep cleaning, this is what I turn to.
Mario Badescu Facial Spray With Aloe, Adaptogens & Coconut Water
This facial spray is so refreshing and helps to wake me up after those sleepless nights and early mornings with the kids. It's made with hyaluronic acid and coconut water and keeps my face super hydrated. It's the first step in my skin care routine!

Aloisia Beauty
This concentrated serum has transformed my skin. It reduces redness and helps me look awake even if I'm running solely on caffeine. It's an antioxidant-rich formula that also helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. So good!
