My Skincare Routine.♡

Hey Everyone! I am talking all about my skincare routine today, All the products I love and use nightly. I love these type's of posts because I am such a skincare junkie I love finding new products and seeing what works for others. My skin is dry/acne prone so that is what I am working with.

Taking off the make-up...
I never go to sleep with my make-up on so to take the bulk off I use Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water. I pour this on a round cotton pad and remove my lips, eyes and face make-up. If I am wearing heavy make-up or glitter I use the Garnier Oil-Infused Micellar Cleansing Water as this is formulated with oils which instantly dissolves makeup and it's just more easier to grab heavy or glitter make-up.


Cleansing...

I never just use the Micellar water and walk away I always cleanse my skin. I love using the Philosophy Purity One Step Facial Cleanser. This is formulated to gently cleanse the skin, remove make-up and dirt, tone by restoring the PH balance and hydrate by feeding the skin moisture. This takes off every speck of left over make-up and cleanse my skin leaving it soft and clean. I will wash my skin twice with the Philosophy Purity cleanser to really get rid of the make-up and deeply cleanse.

Exfoliate...
On the nights when I need to exfoliate I use the Queen Helene Mint Scrub. This is gentle enough to not feel abrasive or harsh, but gritty enough to scrub away dead skin. This not only smells so fresh and minty but feels so fresh and minty on the skin leaving my skin super soft and glowing.

Shave... 
I know this sounds a little funky but I feel is the most essential in my skincare as sometimes I do get the annoying peach fuzz, moustache or straggly eyebrow hair and to get rid of these I use Tinkle Razors. These are so cheap, easy and painless! 99p for three in a pack. My skin always feels baby soft after I use them. I don't do this every night just whenever I feel I need to.

Tone...
For a softening and refreshing toner I have been using 100% Rose Water. Rose Water has so many benefits for your skin. It maintains the skin's PH balance, calms redness and irritated skin, Hydrates, strengthen skin cells, clean and tightens pores, refreshes and helps with anti ageing keeping fine lines and wrinkles at bay. Plus the aroma of roses is known for a mood enhancer, getting rid of feelings of anxiety. 

If my skin is acting up and I need to control any acne or I need to strip everything out and restart my skin I use The Mario Badescu Special Cucumber Lotion. This is formulated to purify, tone, refresh and control acne prone skin. It is infused with soothing cucumber to deeply clarify the skin.

Eye Cream and Eyebrow growth...
I use Benefit it's potent! eye cream as it's super gentle, hydrating, fades dark circles and helps smooth fine lines. It leaves my under eyes brighter, smooth and hydrated. It's Potent eye cream contains peptide complex to restore elasticity and firmness. 

To help my eyebrows grow I use 100% Castor Oil. Castor Oil helps improve hair, nails, eyelashes and eyebrows. It restores Keratin, helping improve hair growth and strength. I have noticed a big difference in my eyebrows not only are they growing but they are becoming more softer and fuller. 

Beauty Oil...
I rotate between a rich night cream and a beauty oil. On the nights when I use the beauty oils I love using 100% Argan Oil.  Argan oil is a well known beauty treatment to treat hair, nails and skin. Argan oil is loaded with Vitamin E and essential fatty acids. It has amazing healing conditioning and repairing properties. It's helped my dry skin, brightening and restoring moisture. I do look like a grease chicken when I apply it, but after a few minutes or an hour it soaks into my skin. My skin always feels super soft and hydrated from the inside out.

Moisturiser/Night Cream...
When my skin is acting up and I need to treat any spots I use the Clean and Clear Dual Action Oil Free Moisturiser. This is a fighting acne medicine in as well being a moisturiser. It prevents and treats acne while moisturising and leaving the skin soft and smooth. It feels so fresh and cooling on the skin, and I have noticed a big difference as it has calmed my skin down and helped my acne prone skin.  

I alternate between two night creams. I use the Garnier Moisture nourish+ moisturiser. This is enriched with Camellia Oil, Omega 3 and 6 and Shea Butter. This leaves my skin so hydrated, moisturised, nourished and soothed. It feels like a balm and melts into the skin like butter. You can use this day and night as it's formulated to lock in moisture for 24 hours.

Or I will use The Skin System Radiance Night Cream. This is from the supermarket ASDA and it's only £2. This is my ride or die for night cream. This maintains the skin's natural balance, formulated with Co enzyme Q10 and Vitamin E to help fight ageing and help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pores. It is enriched with Rosehip Oil and Cocoa Butter to intensely moisturise the skin while you sleep. It has natural Macao Root Extract to help keep the skin looking radiant and Youthful. I love this cream, it is by far the best cream out of all the drugstore and high end night creams. 

Spot Treatment...
If I have a spot coming, or one that needs treating I will use The Mario Badescu Drying Lotion. This is such a savoir! It treats acne,clears it up, soothes the spot without irritation. This is the best zit zapper I have ever used. You stick a cotton swap into the bottom pink lotion and then you place it onto the spot leave it on your skin for the night and the next day your zit will be smaller and almost gone or actually gone. It's insane how amazing this get's rid of pimples.

Extra Hydration...
If I need a little more hydration I will use Origins Drink Up OverNight Mask. This puts dry skin to bed. Avocado and Apricot Kernel Oils deeply and instantly quench the skin's thirst. Japanese Seaweed helps repair skin's barrier to prevent dehydration. My skin feels amazing every time I apply this, as if my skin is getting a drink of water from the inside out. My skin looks glowly, refreshed and smoothed. I cannot live without this, as it has soothed and helped my dry skin.

If I want a little extra re freshness and hydration I will spray MAC fix plus.  I love how this makes my skin feel so refreshed and hydrated aswell as giving my skin a " dewy" look.  Fix Plus is packed with vitamins and minerals to hydrate and soothe the skin so it can be used without make-up.
