My Skincare Routine

Hi girls welcome back to my blog! :) Today's post is going to be based on My Skincare Routine. My skincare routine is quite basic to be honest, I don't use a lot of different products, this is just what works best for me :)

So the very first product in my skincare routine is my cleanser. When I'm wearing makeup I would normally double cleanse to ensure my face is clean and all excess dirt and makeup is removed. For the first cleanse I use Jojoba Oil on a cotton pad. This wipes of my makeup so effortlessly and is extremely gentle on the skin. It's also amazing at removing eye makeup, I was extremely surprised with how well this product works!( pssst! Stay tuned for an upcoming blogpost on the 'Benefits of Jojoba Oil'.)

The second part of my cleansing stage is my face cleanser. I normally use the 'Pink Grapefruit Scrub' by Neutrogena. I have to say that this is my ultimate favourite cleanser, it doesn't break me out and it also cleanses the skin fantastically. I have extremely sensitive acne prone skin so I find it difficult to come across skincare products that don't break me out. The scrub contains micro-beads which is something I have grown to love. The microbeads smoothens the surface of the skin without drying or irritating it. It always leaves my skin feeling clean, fresh and soft. The scrub also contains Salicylic acid which helps fight against blemishes and blackheads. It also consists of a grapefruit extract and Vitamin C which is a plus again!

I know the majority of you would use a toner next but personally I don't find them much use and I have struggled to come across a toner that is gentle to the skin and that doesn't break me out. If you have any suggestions for a good toner please leave a comment below telling me your favourite or leave a comment on my Facebook page! :)

Next is my moisturiser :)My everyday moisturiser is the 'Light Moisturiser' by Simple. I can't find a moisturiser as good as this one. It is super gentle on the skin and I love applying this to my face especially when it's feeling very dry as its so refreshing and leaves my skin silky soft. It contains 2 vitamins, Pro Vitamin B5 and Vitamin E. It also contains Glycerin and Borage Seed Oil. It has no artificial perfumes or colours of harsh chemicals so it won't upset your skin! 

And last but not least is my primer. I use the Rimmel London Lasting Finish primer. I cannot live without this product it is incredible!! I have huuuge pores (ew I know) and this product fills them in and completely evens out my skin tone. It is the best base ever for your makeup, seriously! It claims to extend the wear of your foundation for up to 8 hours and helps to minimise the appearance of pores and even the skin tone whilst providing endless comfort. It does exactly what it says on the bottle, I can't rave about this enough, you gotta try it! 

That's it, that's my skin care routine. Short and simple! I hope you enjoyed and if there is any blog posts you'd like me to write up, leave me a comment and il add it to my list!
