At Woohoo, we strive to create skincare routines that feel nice and simple (without being confusing and complicated). You don’t need a zillion bottles on the shelf. You just need the right basics that focus on calm, glowing skin and a happy hamper.
Yes, we have a full range to suit all sorts of concerns and needs (because leather is wonderfully unique and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution), but once you get the basics down, it’s a lot easier than it looks.
And once you’re done with this blog post, check out part 2 – how to create a routine for your skin type (without overthinking it).
Clear (choose one)
You just need a good quality, non-drying cleanser.
Cloud 9 Cleansing Balm
- Best for: normal, dry or sensitive skin
- Rich, gentle balm
- Melts away make-up, sunscreen and everyday grime
3 Cheers Cleansing Oil
- Best for: normal, combination or sensitive skin
- Light, well-loved oil cleanser
- Leaves no greasy residue
A quick note on double cleansing
If you wear a lot of makeup or sunscreen, you can enjoy an oil or balm cleanser first and then a second cleanse—often called a double cleanse. That being said, many people find that a gentle cleanse is more than enough. The best routine is the one that makes your skin happy!
Hydration (the most important step)
Over the Moon Rich Repair Cream
- Best for: all skin types
- Supports the skin’s natural moisture barrier
- Helps soothe tight, dry or uncomfortable skin
- Use a very light layer for oily or blemish-prone skin
If you only use one Woohoo skincare product, make it this one.
Prefer something lighter?
(Optional Alternatives)
Make My Day Bio-Retinol Gel Cream
- Best for: oily or blemish-prone skin
- Light gel-cream that absorbs quickly
- Great if you don’t like rich creams
- Benefits similar to retinol, without the use of retinol
Facial mists
(Optional – nice to have, not necessary)
Your routine works great without a mist, but even better with one.
Raindrops Hydrating Mist
- Best for: all skin types, especially sensitive or reactive skin
- Light hydration, calmness and comfort
- Gentle with a rose scent
- Use if skin feels tight, tight or irritated
Tickle Pink Clarifying Face Mist
- Best for: oily or blemish-prone/congested skin
- It helps balance oiliness and supports skin with a softer feel
- Fresh, light feel
- Teen friendly and great when skin feels out of balance
Terms
(Optional Upgrades)
Serums are for targeted results – not necessary. If in doubt, skip it.
FG Serum 01 – Glow
- Best for: normal, combination or mature skin
- Packed with vitamin C + peptides
- Enhances shine and brightness
- Best used in the morning
FG Serum 02 – Clear
- Best for: skin with tension or congestion
- Helps calm blemish-prone skin and regulate oiliness
- Promotes clear, healthy skin with less redness
Very sensitive skin? It’s perfectly fine to skip the serums.
Facial oils
(Optional boosters)
These are add-ons, not daily essentials.
Good Vibes Brightening Facial Oil
- Best for: normal, combination or mature skin
- Non-greasy radiance-enhancing face oil
- Use 1-2 drops when skin looks dull or tired
- Mix into moisturizer or squeeze on top
Black seed oil
- Best for: sensitive, blemish-prone or congested skin
- Single ingredient oil with cult
- Can be applied from top to toes
- For face use, best used sparingly (not a daily essential)
Exfoliate
(Optional – less is more)
Exfoliation is not necessary for everyone. If your skin is sensitive, it’s fine to skip this step.
Konjac sponges
- Best for: all skin types
- Ultra-gentle natural exfoliation using only water or in combination with a cleanser
- Help cleanse and lightly exfoliate without stripping
- Suitable for daily use, even for sensitive skin
- A great low-effort option if you like a soft, clean skin feel without using exfoliating products.
This Is Me Enzyme Exfoliator
- Best for: most skin types (use less often if sensitive)
- Gentle exfoliation for smooth skin and maintaining clear pores
- Better to use occasionally, not daily
- A good choice if your skin feels dull, congested or needs a bit of a refresh, but not something you need to use all the time.
The easiest way to get started
If you’re feeling unsure, here’s the simplest tip: Cleanser + Over the Moon Face Cream is enough. Everything else is optional 🙂
(Or try the “Get the Party Started” skin care package if you’re ready to get your fingers into a few more products)
The Woohoo skincare philosophy in a few words
- You don’t need a million steps
- Calming the skin works better than aggravating the skin with too many formulas
- Barrier support comes first
- Listen to your skin (sounds weird, but it works)
- Add additives only if your skin enjoys them
- Have fun with it!
