Cicaplast Balm B5 for Dry Skin Irritations - La Roche-Posay
Using it for ONE NIGHT, and waking up with calmed, even skin. It's my new ultimate favourite. It wasn’t a fluke - to this day, I’m willing to scrape out the empty tub with a toothpick, this stuff’s so effective.
Squalane + Probiotic Gel Moisturizer - Biossance
I am religious about keeping my skin barrier protected and this is one of the few moisturisers I can always rely on. As soon as I apply it my face feels like it's having a duvet day and everything instantly feels better. Plus the thicker cream textur...
Ceramidin™ Skin Barrier Moisturizing Cream | Dr.Jart+ Skincare
It’s formulated with oat kernel oil and colloidal oatmeal, both of which hydrate skin but, most importantly, soothe and calm signs of irritation. As well as a cleanser, you can apply a layer on skin and leave for 10 minutes for a quick face mask mome...
The INKEY List Oat Cleansing Balm 150ml
As someone who has incredibly oily skin, I have long been on the hunt for something that can reduce the slick. And seeing as this BHA Liquid Exfoliant has one of my favourite ingredients as its key component, aka salicylic acid, I’m not too surprised...
I use it every day in my PM routine after cleansing and before serums and moisturiser.

SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant | Paula's Choice
After using this gel cream for a few months I noticed how much my skin was glowing before I’d even put on makeup. It was the product that made me feel more confident to go out sans base product.
Glow Daily Vitamin C Gel Cream Moisturizer | REN Clean Skincare
Spots followed by post-inflammatory pigmentation is a skincare issue I face on a monthly basis. However, this niacinamide-rich serum from Beauty Pie was a game-changer for me and even cut my monthly breakouts by half – no small feat, trust me.
Superdrops™ Brightening Niacinamide Serum | BEAUTY PIE US
I'm all about a sun-kissed glow, it's such a great way to even out the complexion and fake a fresh-face - even if you're surviving on little-to-no sleep (which, with a teething one-year-old, is something I truly understand).
Tan Luxe have concocted the perfect potion to give skin a subtle, natural-looking bronze. It's also packed with added hyaluronic acid for hydration, and as someone who is forever trying to simplify my life, I love a skincare multitasker.

Super Glow - Tan-Luxe
In terms of texture, this is the nicest SPF I have ever applied and trust me when I say it will make you look forward to applying your suncream every morning.
THANKYOU FARMER Sun Project Water Cream 1.75oz
Of all their products, my favourite has to be The Dewy Skin Cream. As someone with permanently dry skin, this wonder moisturiser does just what it says on the tub, gives a dewy glow to even parched complexions.
The Dewy Skin Cream Rich Line-Plumping Moisturizer - Tatcha
Every time my skin freaks out, this serum calms it down asap. From hormonal breakouts to redness, dry patches or texture issues, this soothing formula contains an active, plant-based complex that calms skin, taking down redness and reducing irritatio...
CALMING SERUM | Dr. Barbara Sturm
With continued use, this genuinely makes your skin look like you’ve only drank water and eaten greens for a month.
The hyaluronic acid sits in two different molecular sizes; the bigger of the two plumps the surface and the smaller ones penetrate the skin barrier to work from within… it’s all very techy. I just love how dewy my skin looks tbh.

Hyalu B5 Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum - La Roche-Posay
It’s just the silkiest moisturiser that makes a fab base for makeup.
It’s especially great for dry skin– I hate when makeup clings to dry patches or doesn’t blend properly and this eliminates that.

Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base Hydrating Primer
Free from essential oils, drying alcohols, silicones, chemical screens, fragrance/dyes and SLS, this SPF kept my skin happy and breakout-free.
Sun Protection - Drunk Elephant
It comes at it from a prevent and repair approach, with salicylic acid to unclog and tighten pores, and niacinamide for evening the complexion. If there's one thing it taught me, it's that the best ways to target spots, often don't target the actual ...
Vinopure Natural Salicylic Acid Pore Minimizing Serum - Caudalie
Not only is it the best-smelling skincare product, but it also manages to dissolve even the most stubborn of mascaras and leaves my dry skin feeling perfectly quenched after cleansing.
Moringa Cleansing Balm 100g with Dual Action Cleansing Cloth
It's totally decongested my skin, leaving it smooth and bump/blemish-free. It's non-drying, so perfect if you have sensitive skin but want an effective anti-blemish treatment.
Blemish + Age Defense Serum | Salicylic Acid - SkinCeuticals
If you have sensitive, dry, inflamed, red skin, this little beauty will calm and soothe, while also repairing the skin, and strengthening your skin barrier. My skin however is none of those things.
CALM Rescue & Repair Intensive Moisturizer - Paula's Choice
It’s made with medical-grade lanolin, an ingredient which can hold 400% of its weight in moisture and delivers intense hydration to lips. But that’s not all – it’s a multipurpose product, so it can also be used on cuticles, dry patches of skin, dry e...
The Original 101 Ointment Multipurpose Superbalm - Lanolips
Vitamin C is a tricky ingredient to bottle effectively, but this one is gold-stabilised (fancy) and teamed with dead-skin-slaying glycolic acid for a brighter, healthier-looking complexion.
Vita-C Glycolic Acid Serum | Murad Skincare
If you want a cleanser that removes everything, from makeup to dirt and excess oil, this is for you.
The low-foam formula dissolves impurities and leaves the complexion feeling clean - without stinging your eyes or leaving your skin dry and tight. It's perfect if you don't fancy faffing around with multiple makeup removers and just want a one-stop...

It’s made from organic grape water and removes all signs of makeup so well on all skin types.
Vinoclean Micellar Cleansing Water | CAUDALIE®
This frill-free gel cleanser, offering three types of ceramides and a gentle foaming action to remove dirt.
CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser | 236ml/8oz
I apply all my juicy moisturising skincare and then press this on as the final step. The lavender and frankincense give it a beautifully sleepy smell too.
Night Nectar - Wild Source
As someone with dehydrated skin, I often find that SPF moisturisers are not hydrating enough for me and I need to apply them separately – until I met Hydra Vizor.
It’s so lightly creamy and the soft pink formula really blends into my skin well (ashiness is a real worry for melanin-rich skin). It's love.
