Just remember finding a good skin routine can take time and many products have to get used to your skin before starting to show results, don't be afraid to try out something by a new brand and yet with the store advisers as most store offer returns if you have an allergic reaction to the product. These are all of the products that make up my new and improved skin care regime all of these products are made from natural ingredients (hand cream may contain other ingredients) are suitable for those with sense skin. I have a lot of allergies and very awkward sensitive skin therefore I always opt for the organic, hypoallergenic, light options for skincare.
The product I start of with is the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water this has fast become my favourite product for cleansing and removing makeup it is so gentle and cooling on the skin yet it removes waterproof mascara and lip stains so easily. My favourite cotton pads to use with this are the Primark Cosmetic Pads in the regular size, the reason these are so good is because they are soft and have a light texture but most importantly they are sewn around the edges and this helps to absorb the product and keep the cotton pad together plus there a bargain at 99p (pack of 2).
Then I move onto my eye cream it was a tough decision to decide which one would make it into my favourites list I went with the Khiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado as its is perfect for the winter months, it is lovely rich, creamy texture and applies quick thickly to allow for the product to be absorbed over night to give complete hydration to your eye area. The second choice which I still go back to it the matching item to one of my other favourites the Body Shop Vitamin E Eye Cream, it is a much lighter consistency with a slightly oilier texture that absorbs quickly into the skin.
My best moisturising products that I cannot live without are the Simple Kind To Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser and the Body Shop Vitamin E Overnight Serum in Oil. I have been using the Simple Moisturiser for years it is a firm favourite as it is light enough to put underneath makeup and to be mixed with other products, I highly recommend this product to anyone with sensitive skin. The Body Shop Serum on the other hand is a brand new product that was launched early 2014 it is dupe for the Estee Lauder Overnight Serum and for me its so much better due to being a 3rd of the price. I love this product it gives your hydration throughout the whole night and really helps to absorb nutrients and even out skin tone. I feel that this product gives an almost instant change to the skin It looks much clearer and refreshed after using overnight, it is also perfect for applying during a long flight to prevent skin from tightening or drying out.
When my face is looking a tired or I can feel a breakout coming I like to use face scrubs to help prevent my skin from unsightly breakouts and redness. For a refreshing uplift and for a more everyday formula I like to use the St. Ives Apricot Scrub as it does still have little bobbles in to exfoliate the skin but they are made of 100% natural products which soften as water is mixed. It smells great for winter. When I have a more severe breakout or I feel my face needs a good clean I go to my holy grail product the Body Shop Tea Tree Squeaky Clean Scrub the formula for this on is slightly harsher and the exfoliating beads are a lot firmer giving a more thorough clean, mixed with the tea tree oil this really helps to clean away any bacteria from the blemishes whilst soothing and getting rid.
My Final Products are for that touch of relaxation and deep cleaning I only use a face maximum of once as month as I feel with my skin being so sensitive it upsets the chemical balance making my skin feel less healthy but if I stick to using them little and monthly they enhance my skins health and leave my face glowing. I like to use the Face Masks by H&M my all time favourite was the rhubarb formula although they have now replaced that one for some new fresh ingredients my two best from the newer range are the Cucumber and Aloe Vera with is designed to get rid of the every day grime build up whilst soothing and repairing damage, and the Honey and Jasmine which is a gentler clearer formulated to release toxins from the body/face. If you like face masks or just want to give one a try I would defiantly recommend these ones and at 99p what is there too loose.
