I love
skincare, I love talking about it, I love shopping for it, I love using skin
products so I decided to do a post on my favorite skin care products
at the moment. I have so many skin care products that I use every once in
a while so I am just going to talk about what I love at this moment. I hope you
enjoy reading!!
Cleansers.
My all
time favorite cleanser is Purity
one step facial cleanser by Philosophy. This is for all skin types and will
not clog your pores and also it won't strip your skin from its natural oils,
it's actually going to put oil back into your skin because it has natural oils
init. It's a one step facial cleanser because it's going to cleanse your skin,
remove makeup including eye makeup and tone your face with just one formula.
It's very gentle on the skin and eyes and can be applied to dry or damp skin. I
use this morning and night, it's an amazing cleanser that really takes away any
speck of makeup and dirt. It's perfect for everybody.
For days when my skin
needs soothing and calming I use Murad
Soothing gel cleanser. If your skin is breaking out, producing redness and
inflammation you need this cleanser. This cleanses away dirt and bacteria, soothes and
calms skin and helps with any redness and inflammation. This is super soft
and moisturizing and helps so much with any breakouts and
irritated skin. It has moisturizing beads to restore
moisture and softness, also peppermint and berry leaf extracts to help with
inflammation. It smells soothing and feels soothing and cooling.
Exfoliating washes.
Most of the time I use MicroDelivery Exfoliating facial wash by Philosophy. This is for all skin types and gentle enough to use daily. It's not to abrasive but is gritty so you do get a good scrub. My skin feels softer, cleaner and brighter.
I also have been
recently using the Olay total
effects self heating exfoliate. This
is amazing!!! It has warming micro crystals and is a 7 in 1 exfoliate. It
brightens, improves texture and smoothness, exfoliates, removes dirt and makeup
and helps the appearance of pores. You splash your face with water, apply
this to your skin using circular movements at that point you feel a slight warm
feeling, then you apply more water to get the full thermal experience. I must
put your mind at rest and tell you this does not burn or get to hot, it's
basically just warm. It feels so soothing and it exfoliates well without being
harsh on the skin.
Beauty Oil, Moisturizers and
eye cream.
I love Origins GinZing energy boosting moisturizer. The scent of this first of all makes me so happy and it's pretty addictive. The scent is pure oranges that makes you crave an orange slush! This feels super hydrating to the skin, it is a thick moisturizer but not too heavy. You can apply it Am and Pm and it's not sticky or greasy. I have noticed my skin is brightening with this moisturizer so it must have vitamin c so that is always a great thing. My skin feels amazing with this moisturizer.
Clarins Daily
Energizer Cream is
another favorite of mine. Its a thick moisturizer but very
silky. It gives the skin a little glow but not oily just brighter and a little
tiny glow, and feels baby soft! This cream gives my skin hydration and a
perfect base for when I apply my makeup. I use this as a day cream rather than
a night. I love the scent, it smells very womanly and grown up but not a
grandma scent!
My favorite beauty
oil is Balm Balm 100% organic
little miracle rose serum. This is for all skin types, and its natural
and organic. The scent is so girly, it's pure roses but not to overpowering or
sickly. This is going to be used in conjunction with your
normal moisturizer. It's a thick oil but won't make you look like a
grease chicken and if your skin is very dry, it will drink this oil up so
quickly. This oil has improved the texture of my skin and also I notice I don't
produce as much oil and breakouts when I use it.
For eye cream there is
only one that I love which does not irritate and sting my eyes and that is Kiehls creamy eye treatment with
avocado oils. This is made to hydrate, brighten and de puff the eyes.
It has such an amazing brightening effect that gives the eyes a natural
luminous glow. It has saved my eyes from dryness and puffiness and does a
fabulous job for tired eyes. It has a scent of avocado ( of course ) but the
fragrance does not bother my eyes at all.
Masks.
Lush mask of
magnanimity is
my all time favorite mask! This is so minty it's gorgeous! It
has peppermint oil which will stimulate the skin, it helps with dark spots,
break outs and it's also a scrub. So you apply it to your skin, leave it on to
dry and then when your washing it off you scrub your face with it. Its not at
all harsh or to abrasive. You can put this in your fridge and then
apply it to your skin for a much more intense mask if you wanted to that is
optional. This pulls out every dirt and bacteria from your skin and you can
feel it doing so. You feel a cooling, minty, stimulating feeling which is
incredible. You feel every nasty stuff and toxins are coming out of your skin.
It has the most amazing mint scent but I will tell you it is intense, so if you
don't like peppermint you won't like this. I love it so much, my skin looks
clean, no breakouts have happened, if I did have any they dried up, my skin
feels refreshed and ah just beautiful.
Murad clarifying mask is also on my favorites. I
use this more when I need to take everything out and start again with my
skin because it does help more with breakouts and blemishes and it clarifies
the skin. I don't think this has a scent to it because I don't smell one.
It's a soft mask and dries really quickly. It pulls so much out from your pores,
and makes your skin feel baby soft. It sucks everything out and gives you a
fresh start which everybody needs to do at least once a week to just pull out
everything and start again. There is not much of a feeling when it's
drying, just a tightening feeling. It's a mask I recommend :D
Cream Cleanser
After I have taken my
makeup off with wipes, or Micellar water I like to use a cream cleanser. I love
using Oil of Aloe Vitamin E
creme. This gets deep down and takes off any speck of makeup and dirt.
Its moisturizing and for all skin types. It feels luxurious and soft
and leave my skin looking cleaner and baby soft. Its one of
my favorite products to use as I am taking makeup off because it
feels so pampering. The scent is like a luxurious spa scent and the
cream is not greasy or sticky. I love this and have been using it for years as
a makeup remover extra step.
That is
my favorite skincare products at the moment. I hope you had a
good read and let me know what skincare products you are loving at the
moment... :D
