First off every evening I cleanse, tone and moisturise. I try to in the morning to before makeup but illl be honest, I'm usually very lazy so most the time I do just moisturise in the morning. For my cleanser and toner I've been using Garnier goodbye dry gentle cleansing milk and toner for normal to dry skin! I've been using this for almost two months now. I do have to say I actually don't mind taking my makeup off with this every evening as it is so effective and your makeup just glides off! And the best part... Eye makeup! This stuff is great for taking off eye makeup! I have sensitive eyes so a lot of eye makeup removers irritate them and make me feel like I'm going half blind for a few minutes after I be used them haha, but not this. I find it so gentle and so effective!! And the toner feels so cool and calm on the skin and doesn't leave it feeling atall tight or uncomfortable!
Now these come in very cute girly packaging. It's just a squeezey bottle with a white and pink theme going on. The cleanser itself is white (and doesn't emulsify) and the toner is clear. I use both these products on cotton pads. Now the smell of these products are Devine! I fell in love with the smell and that is actually the reason I decided to purchase them! It's a lovely cherry-ish smell but not atall sour or overpowering, it's just lovely! These products are also paraben free! I think I will stick with these products for a while and see how they go but at the minute my skin has been looking noticeabley clearer and touchabley softer and less dry, so ultimately a big thumbs up! Oh and girls! I purchased these at 3 euro each on sale, but you can get both of them for under a tenner together usually! Talk about affordable!
For mousturiser I am using the nivea refreshingly soft moisturising cream. I found this little gem a while back when one winter my skin was so dry that around my nose and cheeks area my skin was actually flaking- regardless of how much exfoliation and everything my makeup was sticking to the dry patches and flaking and looked really awful! I asked my friend for some moisturiser one day I was in we house and she have me this and I loved it! I noticed a difference straight away believe it or not! The formula is so thick and creamy yet absorbs so quickly to the skin and really helped with my dry patches! It is enriched with vitimans E and jojoba extract. The scent is very light and refreshing and I apply this in the morning and before bed and I just can't get enough of it! I'm not too sure how this would work on someone with oily skin as the consistency it quite hydrating and thing but it does wonders for my dry skin especially at this time of year! Also this is once again very affordable at just under 6 euro for the big tub of it and around 3 for the squeezey tube!
Last but not least is a product I have heard so many mixed reviews about. It is the no7 hydrating mask for dry skin! Now I haven't tried much of the no7 range as although it is drugstore products some of their stuff can be a bit pricey. I recieved a voucher in boots for 6.50 euro off any skincare purchase and trust me guys they give these vouchers out all the time, so on a whim I decided to purchase this item. It was a bit of an impulse buy, I seen how pretty it looked and just couldn't not buy it! It is in a cylinder shape bottle that has spirals of a light pink and white going up the whole way though it with a pump applicator. I like the way you can see through into the product to see how much is in the bottle. The first time I tried this I cleansed my face and then applied this with my fingers all over my face. Use this product sparingly as one and a half pumps done my face and I had product left over! This isn't your traditional 'face mask' as it doesn't dry hard or a different colour or anything or the sorts. It goes on after a while it feels very greasy on your skin. I left it on my face for about twenty minutes and I removed it with cotton pads. Girls I haven't tried to remove it with water as I've read it's a big struggle to do so but it comes off fine with cotton pads! I then woke up the next morning and I have to say, my skin felt so smooth! It felt lovely to touch! I actually liked this product! Now it's not the most amazing facemask I've ever tried but I do like it and think it will come in very handy with this weather! Also it retails for about 16 euro- in or around that anyway, and with my voucher it cost just under a tenner! And with all no7 products they give you a little no7 bag- which I love as it makes my little splurge feel more luxurious!
That's it for my skincare, I will let you know if I find any fault with these products to come or if I change my routine in anyway! Thank you so much for reading!
