My Skincare Routine | India Cameron

 Here is my skincare routine!!

I'd say I have acne prone/oily T zone skin. This routine doesn't particularly get rid of my spots but it removes my makeup and keeps my skin clean, fresh and hydrated. 

When my witch hazel runs out, I am going to get the Clinique 
 Clarifying lotion, as this really clears up my spots. I tried it before and I would say it is one of the best skincare products I've ever tried. (I'm skin type 3, oily)


In order of how I use them:

'The Body Shop- Cucumber Concombre cleansing milk'- I use this too simply remove my makeup. I rub it all over my face, wipe it off with a cotton pad and it melts away my makeup. I got it at the boxing day sales for £2 but I don't know how much it will be now!! I use this product on an every day basis.

'No7 Boots Beautiful skin Hot Cloth Cleanser'-I use this with the muslin cloth, putting it all over my face, running the cloth under hot water and putting it on my face to really open up my pores. To remove I just lightly exfoliate my face with the cloth then wash all the product off. I usually repeat the whole process to ensure my skin is thoroughly clean. The product is a thick cream consistency. This is a great dupe for the 'Liz Earl Cleans and Polish' although there is not a huge difference in price. The No7 Hot Cloth Cleanser is £9.95 including the cloth and the Liz Earl cleanse and polish is £14.75, including the cloths. I use this product on an every day basis.

'St Ives Naturally Clear Apricot Scrub, Blemish Fighting'- I really like this product and iv'e defiantly noticed a difference in my skin since I started to use it. I would not recommend using it every day. I did when I first got it and because the consistency of it is so ruff and the gritts in it are quite big, it left my skin dry, sore and red in parts!! I would recommend using this once a week, twice at the most. I bought it from TJ Hughs for £2.99!!

'Witch Hazel'-I use this simply as a toner and to remove any cleanser or excess makeup that could clog up my pores. I use this every day.

'Neutrogena Multi Defence Daily Moisturiser  SPF 15'- This is my everyday moistuiser. It's more of a gel consistency than a creamy lotion type. It works really well!! Because I have quite oily skin I didn't think I needed to use a moisturiser but I did!! Your skin produces way more oil than it needs to when there is no added moisture. 

This is my skincare routine!! when I have small breakouts or spots i just dab a little bit of sudocrem on and it seems to clear it up!!

Reveiw | Maybelline 24 Hour Colour Tattoo's


Recently, I went out to boots and bought 3 of the Maybelline 24 hour color tattoos, and my first impressions of them were really good. They are super easy to apply, I used to use them just on their own as they were so silky, but now I use them as bases for my eye-shadow. 

I have heard they are comparable to the mac paint pots, and great dupes for the 'Giorgio Armani Eyes to kill eye-shadows' but I wouldn't know as I have never owed either of those products. The shade 'On and on Bronze' is great to create a really strong smokey eye, as they are build-able  'Pink Gold' is great to throw on as a quick casual daily look, aswell as 'Eternal Gold'.

Out of the 3 shades I got, I definitely noticed a difference with the consistency and quality of the shadows. 'On and on Bronze and Pink Gold' are alot more creamy and easy to blend and apply. However, Eternal gold is alot more sticky and not very blend-able.

Also, I noticed a difference between the pigmentation of all 3 eye-shadows. 'On and on Bronze' is extremely pigmented and very glittery and metallic. Great for creating a dark, smokey eye. 'Pink Gold' is very  metallic and pigmented but not so much glittery. 'Eternal Gold' is less pigmented, glittery and not metallic.

I know that they sell alot of different shades now!

Here are some swatches of the eye shadows!


Starting from the left, the shades are 'On and on bronze', 'Eternal Gold' and 'Pink Gold'.

I was surprised at how cheap they were compared to how good they are! At my local boots they cost £4.99, but at the time boots were doing their '3 for 2' offer, so I got 3 for basically £10.

Overall, the packaging is really professional as they're glass pots, but I hate that they put the bar code on the front! I think the overall look of the product would of been much nicer if they had put it on the back!

With a good eye primer and eye-shadow over the top, these eye-shadows should stay on all throughout the day without creasing!

Over all these are really really good eye-shadows and I don't regret buying them.

Thankyou x
