I’ve been trying to take better care of my skin lately, taking the time to have a proper skincare routine, and making sure I cleanse properly. Since sticking religiously to a good skincare routine I’ve seen some great results, and I’m now a big cleanser fan. I’ve been trying out all sorts of cleansers to find the right one for my skin, and along the way I’ve found a couple of favourites.
The first of my favourites is the Eau Thermale Avene Gentle Gel Cleanser that I picked up recently. I’ve been lusting over this for a while after hearing some good things about it, and I’m really glad I picked it up. I’ve never used a gel cleanser before, but I really love the consistency of this, it feels really soothing on my skin and doesn’t irritate or rub at all. Another cleanser I’ve been trying out lately is No.7’s Beautiful Skin Hot Cloth Cleanser. I’ve never really tried any of No.7’s skincare products before, but this one was given to me by a friend and I’ve been using it for a few weeks now. Like most hot cloth cleansers it feels really smooth and creamy on my skin, and even makes taking off my makeup easy. It’s really soft to use on my skin, and I’ve found it makes it look a lot brighter. Another favourite cleanser would have to be Liz Earle’s Hot Cloth Cleanser, the holy grail of hot cloth cleansers. I’ve been using this for years, and I’ve even convinced my mum to start cleansing with this. It feels so gentle on my skin, and just like No.7’s it’s really easy to take off my makeup with this.
I’ve been using these three cleansers in my skincare routine for a while now, mixing up which one I use each week, and I’m really seeing some good results with all three. I’ve never had one single cleanser that I go to, and I think these three will be in my skincare routine for quite a while. Do you have more than one favourite cleanser that you love?
One thing I can never have enough of is lipstick. I have a whole drawer of the stuff, in every shade you could imagine. I usually stick to ‘drug store’ lipsticks, but every now and then it’s nice to try out a higher end product. One brand I’ve never really tried anything from, but have…
For today’s blog takeover I have the lovely Jess from Lovely Jubbly Blog talking about her top 5 essential makeup products for on holiday. Hope you enjoy the post! When it comes to Summer, I’m all about keeping the makeup simple, fuss free and sticking to the bare essentials. Seeing as though Lisa is off on her…
I’ve always loved looking at other bloggers ‘perfume collection’ type posts, and I’d love to do one myself but truth be told I only ever have one or two bottles on the go. I seem to have a eye (or nose) for expensive types of perfume, so I can never afford to have a collection….
If you’re a close follower of my blog you may have noticed over the past year that skin care products are being mentioned more and more. A couple of years back I didn’t have a skin care routine, in fact I would hardly even remove my make up (awful, I know). And now I have…
I recently made my first Models Own purchase! On the Models Own website you save £7 when you buy 5 nail varnishes. Normally at £5 per nail varnish I thought this was a great deal so I treated myself to 5 new polishes and a new lip balm. From left to right: Purple Mystique, Pure Purple,…
