Cleansing & hydrating face masks for weekly use
My favourite clay face mask - I use this weekly, it leaves your skin feeling so clean. You can literally feel it working whilst it’s on, your skin looks instantly brighter and less congested. This formula has been updated so it’s no longer stripping ...
Kiehl's Rare Earth Face Mask 125ml
Very moisturising & helps you achieve glass skin
Medicube Collagen Night Wrapping Mask 75ml
This led face mask is constantly ranked as one of the best
DRx SpectraLite FaceWare Pro
Cleansers
Melt away any residual makeup with this product
I love to double cleanse with this or the estee lauder balm. I use this after a face wash/micellar water) if I have worn makeup - it gets EVERYTHING off and melts all stubborn residual makeup away with ease
ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm 100g
Toners
Toner spray and liquid - important for restoring your skin’s pH after cleansing!
I often forget to use toner so I love this easy-to-use mist. My skin feels hydrated, glowy and refreshed when I use this
PIXI Glow Mist 80ml Glycolic Acid
Great for enlarged/mild congestion - i love using a liquid exfoliant in my skincare routine as physical exfoliation can often be too abrasive and difficult to control
Moisturising face & eye creams that I love - worth the hype!
I’m obsessed with this cream - I understand the hype. My skin feels so supple and nourished when I use it. It’s also one of the few moisturisers that work well as a primer
TATCHA The Dewy Skin Cream 50ml
Great for moderate hyperpigmentation, for a non-medicated product it far exceeded expectations - personally I saw a noticeable difference in around two weeks (over 25% of my mild pigmentation had gone)
Caudalie Vinoperfect Brightening Dark Spot Serum 30ml
My favourite eye cream! I love using this to soothe the skin around my eyes. It’s been tested by ophthalmologists too
Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment With Avocado
I like to wear this alone when I want to go makeup-free or if I have any redness. It provides a surprising amount of neutralising & coverage for a skincare product
Dr Jart+ Cicapair Soothing Color Correcting Treatment SPF 30 15ml
I love sprays & facial mists for quick touchups & added hydration throughout the day. A lot of the avene products are great for both your face & body if you have any irritation - the spray is quite cooling & can be used with makeup
Avène Thermal Spring Water Spray for Sensitive Skin 300ml
Serums
Lightweight targeted serums for your skin
I generally prefer serums for daytime in hot weather - so if my skin is still slightly dryer than usual, this is what I use instead of a heavier moisturiser. The calendula face wash and mask from Kiehls are great too.
Kiehl's Calendula Serum-Infused Water Cream
This is so good for sunspots! Very gentle on the skin whilst targeting mild hyperpigmentation. Eucerin have utilised their patented anti-pigment technology in this range (this was the most effective product for me)
Eucerin Anti-Pigment Dual Serum
I find it really difficult to build a tolerance up to retinol as my skin is sensitive so this low strength serum is ideal
The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane 30ml
Great for discolouration & derma-planning. It should be used at night as it is an oil. I have also found it helpful for irritation/scratches
The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil 30 ml
Exfoliating
Target congested/enlarged pores with an exfoliant
You can feel a noticeable difference in skin texture even after just one use. Your skin is instantly so much smoother and brighter. It definitely gives life back to dull (lightly) textured skin
