Michele’s 20-Minute Farmhouse Fresh Facial Ritual

If you’ve been around Maison Hearth for five minutes, you know I love anything cozy, indulgent, and just a little bit extra. A couple birthdays ago, I was gifted a beautiful box of goodies from FarmHouse Fresh—and let me tell you, it was love at first lather. Read on to hear about my Farmhouse Fresh Skincare Routine

Why I Love FarmHouse Fresh

Not only are their products cruelty-free, made by a women-owned company, and feel like an actual spa day in a jar… but their profits help rescue farm animals. So yes, while I’m over here smoothing cream on my cheeks, somewhere a sweet little cow is living her best life. We love a skincare routine with a heart.

Here’s how I use my favorites—because no, I don’t slather everything on at once (this is self-care, not chaos).

Michele’s 20-Minute Farmhouse Fresh Facial Ritual (AKA: The “Mr. Pita, Do Not Disturb” Routine)

My Morning Glow Routine

  • A silver lip balm tube with a pink cap and a light pink lip tint featuring a small strawberry design at the top.
  • A jar of Make It Melt Silky Milk Cleansing Balm surrounded by sliced citrus fruits and small dollops of balm on a white surface.
  • A dark cosmetic jar labeled Crow Catcher® eye treatment displayed on a clean surface.
  • A tube of Three Milk Ageless Moisturizer on a pink background with a wavy swipe of moisturizer beside it.

These are my ride-or-dies before I face the world.

1. Make It Melt (Cleanser)

This dreamy cleansing balm takes everything off—makeup, stress, yesterday’s bad decisions. It melts into the skin and leaves it soft instead of stripped. No tight, squeaky nonsense.

2. Three Milk Ageless Cream

If you want that “I drink water and mind my business” glow, this is it. It’s rich but not heavy, smooths beautifully, and makes my skin feel plump and happy.

3. Crow Catcher Eye Cream

Because we are not catching crows, wrinkles, or negativity. This brightens and smooths without feeling greasy. I gently tap it in like the responsible adult I pretend to be.

4. Strawberry Mood Fruit Lip Therapy

She is juicy. It is glossy. Definitely, that girl. My lips stay soft and hydrated all morning.

My Nighttime Wind-Down Routine

  • A jar of Cactus Comfort Silky Barrier Cream displayed on top of its box with the lid off, showing the white cream inside.
  • A jar of pink jelly sleep mask with a gold spoon scooping product, surrounded by cactus pears on a pink background.
  • A jar of Three Milk Ageless Sleep Cream with its lid off, showing whipped white cream beside its pink product box.
  • A top‑down view of an open jar filled with smooth, whipped white cream.

This is where the magic (and the locked bathroom door) happens.

First, I cleanse again with Make It Melt. Always. Non-negotiable.

Twice a Week: Timescape Micromazing

This is my glow-up exfoliation moment. I use it about two times a week to gently polish and refresh. It makes my skin feel baby smooth without irritation.

Wine Down vs. Three Milk Ageless Sleep Cream

Alternate Nights:

Lips at Night:

Sweet Cactus Pear Lip Mask. Thick, nourishing, and exactly what my lips need while I sleep.

Bonus Love:

Cactus Comfort. When my skin needs extra hydration or calming, she comes out to play.

The Ritual (Because This Is Not Just Skincare)

This isn’t a rushed, standing-over-the-sink situation.

I….

  • Lock myself in the bathroom
  • Tell Mr. Pita, “Do not knock unless he is bleeding or the house is burning down.”
  • Light a candle
  • Throw on my favorite jams
  • And treat my face like the queen she is

Twenty minutes. That’s it. But it changes everything.

Self-care doesn’t have to mean a weekend getaway. Sometimes it’s just creating a boundary, closing a door, and saying, “This is my time.”

And if it smells like strawberries and spa milk while helping rescue farm animals? Even better.
