I’m a California girl who lives in the sun, and as a model, skincare isn’t optional for me. I keep it simple, I stay consistent and I never skip SPF. Here’s exactly what I do. Everyone’s skin is different, so patch test anything new. — Cami Del Toro
My morning skincare routine
- Gentle cleanser. A low-foam, hydrating wash. Nothing that leaves my skin tight.
- Vitamin C serum. For brightness and to help with sun exposure.
- Hyaluronic acid. A few drops on damp skin to lock in moisture.
- Light moisturizer. A gel cream in summer, something richer in fall.
- SPF 50. Every day, rain or shine. I reapply before the beach or a long brunch on a patio.
- Lip balm with SPF. Lips burn too!
This fits right after my workout and shower in my LA routine.
My nighttime skincare routine
- Double cleanse. A cleansing balm to melt makeup and sunscreen, then my gentle cleanser.
- Toner. A soothing, alcohol-free one.
- Treatment. Retinol two or three nights a week, a peptide serum on the other nights.
- Eye cream. Tapped in with my ring finger.
- Rich moisturizer. Then a silk pillowcase and lights out.
Post-workout skincare
After the gym I rinse my face right away with cool water, use a gentle cleanser and follow with a light moisturizer. I never leave sweat sitting on my skin. My full gym schedule is in my workout routine.
Weekly extras
- Exfoliating: a gentle acid exfoliant once or twice a week, never the same night as retinol.
- Masks: a hydrating sheet mask on Sunday nights.
- Body care: a body scrub and a rich body lotion for that soft, glowy look.
- Lips: a lip scrub and an overnight lip mask so my gloss goes on smooth.
My glowy makeup routine for dark hair and blue eyes
Good skin means less makeup. With black hair and blue eyes, I keep brows soft and let bronze shadow make my eyes pop. During the day I use a skin tint, a little concealer, cream blush, brushed-up brows, mascara and a glossy lip. At night I add winged liner and a deeper lip. For Halloween I go much bolder, as you can see in my Halloween looks for 2026.
Skincare habits that changed everything
- Drinking a lot of water, especially on hot LA days
- Washing my pillowcase twice a week
- Never sleeping in makeup (okay, almost never)
- Keeping my hands off my face
- Getting real sleep
Sunday reset
Sunday nights are my reset: a face mask, a long shower, a cozy lounge set and my wind-down playlist. It’s the best way to start the week. I wear my coziest knit set for it, which you’ll find in my fall outfits.
How my routine changes with the seasons
In summer I keep everything light: gel moisturizer, a mineral sunscreen that doesn’t feel heavy and fewer layers. In fall and LA winter, when the Santa Ana winds dry everything out, I switch to a richer cream, add a facial oil at night and use a humidifier in my bedroom. I also cut back on exfoliating when my skin feels tight. The biggest lesson I’ve learned is to listen to my skin instead of forcing a routine. If something stings or my skin looks irritated, I take a step back and keep things simple for a few days.
Products I always repurchase
A gentle cleanser, a vitamin C serum, a fragrance-free moisturizer and a sunscreen I actually like wearing. Find formulas that work for you and stick with them.
