SKINCARE | Daily Skincare Routine

Hey guys and dolls,

 It's been a while since I updated my skincare routine on here, some things are still the same and there are a couple changes. If you haven't seen the post where I stated my original routine you can have a look here. 

With all the different products on the market, a skincare routine can be kind of daunting. And then all the questions that come along with starting a routine. What skin type am I? Do I use a gel or foam face wash?  Do I need to exfoliate? How often do I use an exfoliator/face mask? Should I use an eye cream? etc.

The best advice I can give you is to go and have a skin analysis done, that way you can find out your skin type/needs and have a routine mapped out for you. And from that you can then go and experiment with different brands.

LATE July Favourites

Hey dolls,

I think this is my first ever favourites post, I randomly felt like doing one. So here goes nothing.

I've only got a few items to show. but hopefully you see something that tickles your fancy and may go out and try. I will post a link to the original post of each item where applicable. Might give you the opportunity to see posts of mine that you've missed :)

 Christian Lacroix Rouge EDP - £11.99

I've been wearing this perfume a lot recently. It's great for the daytime and evening.

Argan oil - £5.99

I jumped on the Argan oil train last year and haven't gotten off. This stuff is so good for your hair.

Garnier Moisture Match -Goodbye Dry 50ml

£5.99

This is such a good facial moisturiser and I luckily haven't had any bad reactions to it. Like I tend to with quite a few moisturisers cos I have really sensitive skin.

 Finella bag - £9.99

I haven't spoken about this handbag on my blog yet. Its a new purchase from Avon and I LOVE IT! Its the perfect sized handbag and I've been wanting a tan bag for a while now. Unfortunately I got this bag in the clearance sale so its not available anymore.

Sleek Au Naturel palette - £6.49

This has been my go to palette for make up. I've been using it to create a daytime smokey eye with a bold red lip.

Ladies Shaded Scarf - £3
Another purchase that I haven't mentioned on my blog, I got this the same time as the Finella bag I mentioned. I have been a bit obsessed with scarves recently, I did a post on that here.

Barry M Gelly hi shine nail paints - £3.99

I have been obsessed with these polishes as of late. And 9 out of 10 times I've chosen one of these polishes to paint my nails with in the last month or so.

Tibu earring and necklace set - £3.50

I'm not sure if this set is still available, but I've been wearing this set every time I've gone somewhere. Its just so cute and I feel all sorts of sophisticated when I wear them. They dress up any outfit.

Rimmel apocalips lip lacquer in Big Bang - £6

I LOVE THIS!!!!!! I havent worn anything else on my lips for ages. Its like the perfect red. Its not matte but its not shiny either, its that happy medium.

Avon spectra lash - £10

My go to mascara, it makes my lashes so long and full. I have so many mascaras that I had forgotten about this one. But on a whim I picked it up and remembered just why I'd bought it. Such a good purchase. I never reviewed this product when I got it, so I will do a mini one now.

"Three lash looks in one tube. Twist up to customise you level of volume. Clump-proof and flake-proof" 

I always use it on the 3rd setting cos I'm all about the full lashes. But I love the fact that you have the 3 different settings to suit any mood/look you're going for. On the 3rd setting a lot of mascara can come out on the wand, I usually just scrape it off and carry on with my application.

GARNIER MOISTURE MATCH

Hey dolls,

 Goodbye Dry 50ml

£5.99

I struggle so much to find moisturisers for sensitive AND dry skin on the high street that works well for my excessively dry face lol. I think I've found it in this moisturiser. It's a rich balmy formula, and cos its so rich you only need a little bit. I'm used to using moisturisers with a thinner consistency, but I'm quite enjoying this and it doesn't feel like my skin is suffocating underneath it, which I've found to be the case with thicker moisturisers.

I've been using this moisturiser for a number of weeks now and I'm really impressed. I think it's taken the place of my simple rich face moisturiser...shock horror I know cos I'm a simple skin care lover.

I was lucky enough to get it half price from Tesco, sometimes they have quite the good deal on Garnier skin care items. I've been contemplating trying out a full Garnier skin care range. I'm just in one of those moods to try something new. I still love my simple skin care but I want a change.

Have any of you tried the Garnier Moisture Match products? What are your thoughts?
