Face wash
As someone with hormonal acne, an oily T zone and hyperpigmentation, this face wash does wonders for my skin. Like many of the La Roche Posay products, this too has quickly become a favourite of mine.
Effaclar Purifying Cleansing Gel | Face Care
Also a really nice, affordable face wash, gets the job done and is definitely great for someone that doesn’t have much acne and is looking for something simple.
Hyaluronic Aloe Soothing Cream Cleanser 250ML
It’s effective for someone looking to get rid of black/white heads, although this may not be the best option for intense acne or overly dry skin.
This is by far, my favourite makeup remover, it’s gentle and gets the job done !!
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water 400ml
When my cystic acne was at its worse, this was what helped the most. This is a great solution for anyone looking for a quick overnight fix
Acnecide Face Wash Gel 5% Benzoyl Peroxide 50g
Toner
Helped my sensitive acne prone skin, when I was at my worst dealing with cystic acne. Overall did a great job at cleansing my skin and still leaving it nourished, it’s slightly pricey but worth it.
Anua Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner 250ml
Although it helped cleanse my skin, overall not the best for sensitive acne prone skin. Often left my face slightly irritated or even caused more acne. Would probably work better on normal skin.
Facial Toner – Glow Hydrating Toner, Rosewater & More
Personal favourite of mine, a very effective option when wearing heavy make up
Caudalie Vinoclean Moisturizing Toner 200ml
Serum
I think everyone should try this serum, it’s very fitting for all skins - I’ve tried them all during different phases of my acne journey and it’s the only thing that I’ve been consistent with, as it not only makes my skin firmer but also improved te...
Very hydrating for dry skin, especially during the winter which is when I tend to flare up the most and have to ensure I get a little more hydration.
Moisturising Cream Pot
A moisturiser my mother swears by, one of her personal favourites and very effective
Super Restorative Anti-Aging Day Cream | CLARINS® - Clarins
I use this during the mornings and it’s perfect, despite being an intense hydration it’s still lightweight and very well suited for dry to very dry skin.
Caudalie VinoHydra Deep Hydration Moisturizer
I adore this body lotion, it deeply nourishes my skin
NIVEA Rich Nourishing Body Lotion 500ml
I used this as a child during the winter whenever my eczema would heighten, always something I would recommend for anyone looking to try an eczema remedy or has very dry skin.
E45 Moisturising Lotion 500ml
My favourite body oil of all time, especially during the summer, makes my skin glow
JOHNSONS® Baby Oil
Sunscreen
As the hotter months are nearby, and London is currently going through a heat wave. Here are some of my go to favourite sunscreen
I’ve used this sunscreen for a very long time, it’s small but it lasts a good while. And has also helped even out my skin tone, in general a favourite of mine.
Anthelios Ultra-Light Invisible Fluid SPF50+ | La Roche-Posay
During the summer this is simply perfect, not only for its high levels of SPF but also ensures that you don’t suffer any sun burns.
I love this patch, a personal favourite of mine - putting this patch overnight helps get completely rid of pimples and leaves no dark spots. It’s perfect 10/10
Mighty Patch Invisible+ Daytime Acne Patches
This one of the best face masks I’ve ever tried leaves an amazing glow on your skin 10/10
When it comes to a lip mask, this is a game changer - leaves my lips incredibly smooth. I’m always stocked up during the winter which is when my lips tend to crack the most.
LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask Berry 20g
One of the best clay masks I’ve ever used, does wonders on my oily T - zone. I do it at least once a week (2x if wear more makeup than usual) .
Pure Clay Purity Mask
I brought my gua sha last year, and I’ve noticed an incredible change in my face in both puffiness and defined. Definitely worth trying for anyone that wants to reduce their face fat in a natural way - as long as you’re consistent and have a good rou...
