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!!
great products and the st ives was such a bargain, i want to try it too.

yeah i know exactly what you mean, i still have quite teenage prone skin and still get spots, i supoose scaring will be a problem later when im older, i have herd that 'bio oil' is really good in healing scaring, boots sell it but its really expensive, its like £8.99 for 60ml, and its £19.99 for 200ml, i think body care do a cheap dupe for it but i dont know if it will be the same,
ReplyDeletei love your blog btw, followed!!!!! x
