Top 5 Most Used Skincare Products

Hey everyone! Hope you're all well.

The other night I was just thinking about all my skincare products I use, and how often I use certain ones

because I love how they make me skin look/feel. I though doing a post of my top 5 most used products and

why they're used, would be interesting as, people have their favourite products they don't necessarily use them

everyday. Anyway these are my most used and I hope you enjoy!

Garnier Pure Micellar Cleansing Water

This is definitely number 1 on my list of most used skincare product! I use it every single night to remove my

make-up and I love it and wouldn't use anything else. It just gets rid of so much more than a normal make-up

wipe would. I do like cleansing balms but find this just much easier and less messy. This one is specially for

combination or oily skin. I have combination skin so I prefer to use this one rather than just the regular one as,

I think it;s better to use products that's designed more for your skin type than just a generic one for all skin types.

The Body Shop Tea Tree Cool & Creamy Wash

This is my most used face wash. I use it every night and some morning. I unfortunately have spot prone skin so

to help battle that, I  use a lot of tea tree products from the body shop. I try not to use too much of it though as I

can get dry skin in some areas so, don't want to dry that out.

Origins High Potency Night-a-Mins Mineral Enriched Renewal Cream

I like to use this when my skin is looking really lifeless and dull and recently that's been a lot! After using this

 I wake up with my skin look plump, refreshed and moisturised. I love really rich night creams as I feel like my

skin really soaks up all the goodness of them! It's a little pricey but, I personally think it's worth it as this has

lasted me a stupidly long time!

Antipodes Divine Face Oil Certified Organic Avocado Oil & Rosehip

The other amazing skincare product I use a lot when my skin is dehydrated or dull is this face oil from

Antipodes. Avocado is good for you, Rose hip is good for you and it's organic.. perfect! It's perfect when my

skin is feeling dehydrated and stressed. 

Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion

Now this is my go to for any spot situation I've got going on. It says it's mostly for under the skin spots that you

cant just squeeze. But, I use it on all sorts and it works a dream. It's not magic but it definitely helps keep it

under control! I use this stuff almost every night I love it so much.

A Little Beauty Bay Haul

Hello everyone! Hope everyone's having a great Easter so far!

Recently I bought a few goodies for myself from Beauty Bay. It was a bit pricey, but I got a few

discounts and it's my birthday present to myself, as I've wanted all these things for such a long time.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Pro Series Contour Kit - Medium/Tan

I wanted to start getting in to contouring, and I've heard a lot of good things about this palette. I think I'd suit

the lighter palette better but this was all that was available and I got a discount of about £8/9 so I just bought it

anyway. It actually suits me in colour. Just got to blend well! So far I love using this. I don't like to to a very

strong contour because it can look un-natural. I do still want to purchase the lighter palette though.

Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Treatment Mask

Another one I've been wanting to try for a long time. I've seen review after review, and people constantly saying

that this is their favourite mask to use. I have blemish prone skin, yet it can be dehydrated. I've never had a mask

that both hydrates and clears skin of blemishes all in one. I'm shocked at how it combats so many different things at

one. I've used it twice and I usually like to feel my face masks working. This mask doesn't do that but you can see

it works. It just calms the skin down so much and smells amazing. I really enjoy using it.

Antipodes Divine Face Oil Organic Avocado Oil & Rosehip

This I kinda just bought on a whim because I had discount on this brand, and saw it had great reviews and was

perfect for my skin type. I've quite it quite a few times. It does work and is great but the smell is so off-putting.. It

mask my skin feel great and reduces scars amazingly. I just wish it didn't smell so horrible.

Mario Badescu Drying Lotion

You know this is my one and only! I needed a new one as I used my other one to death.

Mario Badescu Buffering Lotion

I bought this spot lotion as well as the drying one, as this one is more for under the skin blemishes (the ones that

are just lumps that hurt, and you cant squeeze). I've used it a few times and it reduces the spots quite dramatically

actually but the smell again isn't great. It does work though so I can get over a smell.

Peter Thomas Roth Max Anti Shine Mattifying Gel

I got this as a sample with my order. I haven't used it yet but seeing as I've started to get into priming my

face more I'm quite excited to use it.
