I mainly use Neal's Yard Remedies skincare products day to day - I joined them as an Independent Consultant in September 2016 & love their stuff which is all natural & organic, plus they're a super ethical company as well! My fave range of theirs currently is the Purifying Palmarosa, I use the facial wash, toner, moisturiser morning & night. Before that I used the Rehydrating Rose which is also gorge & worked well for my skin, I just love the Palmarosa scent! There are loads of other products of theirs I use regularly, a lot of which I have posted on my Instagram, plus I'm always trying more.. you can never test out too many skincare products in my opinion!
My morning & nighttime routines are basically the same: cleanse, tone, eye cream, acid, oil, moisturise. I use the Neal's Yard Remedies Rehydrating Rose Facial Oil & Eye Cream. The facial oil is a product that I never even knew I needed until I started using it! I'll be doing a blog post on facial oil soon & how this one really upped my skincare game.
I always wash my face with my Vanity Planet - Ultimate Skin Spa cleansing brush, & I genuinely don't feel like I'm exaggerating when I say this gorge little brush is life changing! It comes with 3 different brush heads depending on whether you prefer a gentler clean or more of an exfoliation & is battery powered, so perfect for taking with you wherever you go.
I swear it makes your face feel a whole new level of clean. When i first managed to drastically clear up my skin just over a year ago, I honestly believe it wouldn't have worked so well if it wasn't for this brush. I literally love it & wouldn't be without it now!
I also have a few products by The Ordinary & love the Salicylic Acid; I use a few drops of this after toning & applying eye cream on any blemishes to help clear them up. The only reason I apply eye cream first is so that I don't have any of the acid on my hands when I'm applying product to my eye area & after toning as advised by The Ordinary (I DM'd them on insta to find out when in your skincare routine is best to use it!) The salicylic acid is perfect to help speed up the process for clearing up any blemishes & isn't to harsh for my sometimes sensitive skin.
During the day I also love my Neal's Yard Remedies White Tea Facial Mist; I spend a lot of my day in front of a screen & it's perfect for not only keeping my skin hydrated, but also helping me to feel energised & refreshed during long days. I have one of these on my desk at work & it gets used all day errday! One of my besties also told me recently that it's a dream to use when you're hungover.. I tested out her little theory & she's so right!
As well as this day to day routine there are other things like exfoliating & face masks I do maybe once a week or so, which I'll put in a separate blog soon :)
