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?
Once upon a time I became obsessed with beauty samples. I remember when I was around 15 I discovered you could order perfume samples on the Internet. I then spent months ordering sample after sample after sample. 6 years later I’m still obsessed with samples. If I see a freebie in a magazine, I’m there,…
It took me a while before I bought into the Real Techniques brushes hype, but I started with the Stippling Brush and since then I couldn’t go back to another brand. One of my favourites is the Blush Brush, which I think is one of the larger brushes. It’s shaped like a large tapered egg shape which…
Come the sunnier days I don’t like to wear a thick foundation like I normally do, and I want something with a little less coverage, so for a while now I’ve been trying to find the perfect CC Cream. While browsing around in Boots I came across the L’Oreal Paris Nude Magique CC Cream which…
Lately I’ve got into a bad habit of eating too much rubbish, not doing an exercise, and basically being far too over-indulgent. Christmas is a big part to blame in it, and during the lead up I had a lot of Christmas parties I went to, where I made a lot of bad food choices. I went back to…
Sleep is something that I’ve struggled with for as long as I can remember. It takes me ages to drift off to sleep, and I often wake up numerous times in the night. I find I get a better nights sleep when I’m in a routine, and I’ve found a couple of products that can help me…
