Updated Skincare Routine



Hello everyone!
Today I'm just doing a quick updated skincare routine. I posted one not too long ago but it's
changed quite a bit since then so thought I would just do a little update on how it's changed.
Hope you enjoy!



Morning Routine.
I start by massaging my No7 Hot Cloth Cleanser (not pictured) then using a warm muslin cloth to wipe it off.
It's a basic cleanser that moisturises as it cleanses and it very gentle on the skin. Then I  put some of my Boots
Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Cleansing Toning Lotion on a cotton pas and wipe it all over my face. Sometimes I switch
it up and use the Boots Skin Clear Deep Cleansing Lotion. I then moisturise with my Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion
(not pictured). I then go on to do my make-up..

Night Time Routine.
I take off my make-up by putting some of my Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water on a  Boots Cotton Wool
Double Faced Oval Pads and wiping it all over my face. I usually do one for my eyes and then one for my face.
This usually get the majority of make-up off. I then go in with my Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm
and massage it into my skin to take really clean my skin. I then get rinse my muslin cloth under warm water, rinse
it off and wipe the balm off with this. After it's all off and my face is dry, I then go in with my Tea Tree and Witch
Hazel Cleansing Toner again and wipe it over my face with a cotton pad. I've used Neutrogena Visibly Clear Spot
products. Once that has sunk into my skin, I use either my Origins High Potency Night a Mins Mineral Enriched

Products  I don't use on a daily basis.
If I want to exfoliate I usually use the Boots Skin Clear Ultra Deep Pore Facial Treatment Scrub. It's a really
inexpensive great exfoliator. I sometimes use it on my body as well if I've got any rough patches and it works
dream! I've recently started using the Boots Tea Tree Witch Hazel Exfoliating Face Scrub which, I really
enjoy using. This one is also very inexpensive.

If I ever have a spot I've always sworn by Origins Super Spot Remover Blemish Treatment Gel. It's a very powerful
little gel. I also sometimes use Soap & Glorys Dr Spot. The one I've recently purchased and really love is the Mario
Badescu Drying Lotion. It is a bit pricey but it does the job amazingly. I put it on before bed and the next day the
 spot s dramatically reduced and the smaller ones are practically gone. 

Face Masks.
I thought I'd show you a few of my favourite face masks also as we're on the subject. My most favourite one
to use is the Lush Mask Of Magnaminty. Does such a great job every time and I expect nothing less from Lush.
I also purchased another Mario Badescu product recently. I bought the Mario Badescu Drying Mask to go
with my drying lotion. this mask along with it is pricey but I really see a difference after using it. A few other
favourites include Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque which is such an incredibly inexpensive but amazing mask.
pamper myself. The Una Brennan Super Facialist Clay Mask is a great mask for when my skin needs a deep clean
and for when my skin is dry and I need some moisture I swear by Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask.
I also picked up the under eye patches in TK Maxx. I can't find a link for them as everything's quite unique in
there as most of you probably know. They're just to help with wrinkles and puffiness under your eyes. It feels nice
using them and you eyes do look noticeably different as well.
