Hello everyone!
So I have recently been using new products and venturing out a little more compared to my usual skincare routine so I thought I would show you the new discoveries I have been loving, and the old favourites I have gone back to.
I hope you guys enjoy this post and make sure to let me know what you thought of it in the comments - and let me know YOUR favourite skincare products, I'd love to try them out!
I love you all lots and I will speak to you in my next one,
Xo's Emily.
So my first new discovery is the CLINIQUE take the day off cleansing balm; some of you may know, if you have watched my channel for a while, that I loved the take the day off cleansing milk from CLINIQUE, but I still had fairly dry skin so I decided to get the balm which is more of an oil based product. Oil - based products can be great for dry skin, but don't be put off either if you have oily skin because they work just as well!! This product, as you will see in the second picture down, is a hard oil and you massage it onto your dry face and it takes off literally ALL traces of makeup, it's amazing! I then use it again to properly cleanse once my makeup is removed.
I have also been getting really into face masks lately, as I have had more problem skin. I have been loving this GARNIER Pure Active wash scrub and mask in one! This means if I just need a scrub or harsher wash I can use this but I can also leave it as a mask if I need it to get deeper into my skin. I highly recommend a product like this to everyone, as it does not cost much and it is a great multi-purpose product... there are some great versions of this on the market at the moment too, all for under the £10 mark.
Lots of you may know I love eye creams - lots of people my age (15) do not bother with eye products but it is a must for me. This simple eye gel is nice and light for the day and I use a richer product at night.
I actually got this toner from my grandma as she did not want it after using it once! I love it though. It is only a small sample one but it makes you feel so fresh in the morning after cleansing. I like to use this before I do my serum and moisturiser in the morning because it makes my face feel fresh and ready for the day.
This is my trusty Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream; there's not much to say about this apart from you need to purchase this if you have problem lips! I always suffered from severely dry lips and since using this I have never experienced chapped lips again. I use this all day, I take it to school, I use it before bed and I take it everywhere! The smell isn't amazing but the benefits for your lips are endless. This is also a multi-purpose product so you can use this to keep your eyebrows in place and you can use it on burns etc. It is £15.00, but for a HUGE size lip balm (as you can see in my hand on the pic).
Recently, due to being naughty and biting my nails and the surrounding skin, I have really really needed a good hand cream. I decided to try the fearne one out which smells amazing! It's nice and light for daily use, and if I need something a little thicker I will smother my hands in some E45 or something similar before going to sleep.
I decided it was time to actually buy a night cream - as I had just been using the same moisturiser for day and night time, which wasn't working for me as my skin seems to crave richer products at night time, this NIVEA one is amazing! I got the BB cream to go with it too and I like that too, for light day wear.
This is an old favourite. I was using a proper cleanser every morning and it was taking more moisture out of my skin so I swapped to something lightweight in the morning, which is this Soap & Glory for daily youth face wash: it smells amazing and it does the job of making my face feel squeaky clean in the morning but not depriving me of the moisture I need.
As I said earlier, I have been using scrubs and masks more and this is my FAVOURITE scrub at the moment - this makes my face so smooth and it really gets deep into pores and spots, even before they appear!
