Skincare routine. 16/02/14


Cleanser - Neals Yard Remedies (For dry and sensitive skin)
Moisturiser - Garnier Moisture Match (illuminating lotion)
Concealer - No7 Cool Ivory

I have only just adopted this skincare routine but I am quite liking the benefits. My skin feels fresh and not clogged by my usual foundation that I apply everyday and also my skin seems brighter too.
My mum always recommends cleansers to me because she doesn't think I cleanse enough so this time I took her advice and bought "Neals Yard Remedies" Calendula cleanser for dry and sensitive skin.
 It's made with certified organic ingredients and it actually smells quite nice so its worth a try in my eyes! 

The moisturiser I've started using is Garniers "Moisture Match Illuminating Light Lotion", its light and non greasy so you won't feel it clogging up your skin like some moisturisers do throughout the day. It also states it lasts up to 24 hours but I think thats a bit of an exaggeration as by the time its 24 hours you would of normally put some more on anyway. However besides this doubt, it smells nice and also protects your face from the sun as its 20 SPF. Its also suitable for sensitive skin!

Okay, the concealer isn't a skincare product but it still can just help you hide those little marks or small spots that seem to just appear overnight at times. I use this so I don't have to wear foundation in the day as its best to let your skin breathe a lot of the time. My friend recommended this concealer to me and it works amazingly, my spots are always toned down and my small marks have gone.
(Don't use on scars that are still healing or spots that seem infected because it will clog up the pores more).

This is my make up bag, I don't have much in it because I generally don't wear much make up everyday but I will do a post for "going out make up routine" later on. 

I'm quite particular when buying make up because its so easy to buy the wrong thing and waste money so I always ask the make up artist or maybe a friend to see if its actually worth trying. 
The piece of make up I couldn't live without has to be my eyeliner, I love making my eyes look enhanced so this is an essential to do so and I feel naked without any! 
I have only just tried MAC make up and I can see why theres so much hype! It doesn't feel greasy or heavy on my skin and the colour is a great match to my skin so I would recommend it to anyone! (I use MAC SPF 15 colour ). I also didn't know you primed your skin before you put on foundation, I usually only use this when I go out as I think its to much to do every day and would eventually be bad for your skin. 

What make up cant you live without? Anything to recommend?
