Updated Skincare Loves

-

It has been a while since I have posted anything beauty/skincare related so, I have decided to update you on my skincare routine! (You can thank a comment from a follower for this)

Just a little information on my skin:
I have an oily t-zone and pretty normal skin otherwise
I use the same skincare routine for day and night (sometimes using an extra hydrating moisture mask or cream at night)
And I have been using these products for 4 months minimum.

Here is a little review of all the products shown in the photograph.
(read till the end for a little tutorial)

TZone Clear Pore Facial Wash:
Claims from Amazon.co.uk
  • T-Zone Daily Cleansing, Effective Skincare, Naturally Anti-bacterial.
  • Removes the Grease, Oil and Bacteria that can cause spots.
  • Helps to prevent the build-up of dead skin cells.
  • Leaves great looking shine-free skin.
  • Guards against over dry skin.
Gentle wash that I feel really cleans my face and removes all the dirt. Slightly drying but nothing uncomfortable and its fine for my oily skin (maybe wouldn't recommend if you have dry skin).
Definitely helps to remove the excess oil on my skin and I love the smell!
Also, the spot gel is fabulous as well!!

Pixi Glow Tonic:
Claims from pixibeauty.co.uk
  • Exfoliates and purifies the skin with Glycolic Acid
  • Ginseng improves circulation and energizes
  • Aloe vera soothes and hydrates
  • Refines the appearance of pores
  • Gently accelerates cell renewal to reveal a brighter, glowing complexion
  • Balances, heals and soothes for radiant, healthier looking skin
The best thing ever! I love how this makes my skin glow and feel so refreshed after washing. Doesn’t feel tight or drying to my skin either or leave any residue. I can definitely tell the difference between when I do and do not use this, my skin just looks duller.

Origins Original Skin Serum:
Claims from johnlewis.co.uk
  • De-stress. Persian Silk Tree helps skin rebound
  • Smooth roughness. Chestnut Seed Extract refines texture
  • Delete dullness. Willowherb restores glow
  • Shrink pores. Algae help reduce oil to help them appear to vanish
  • Minimise flaws. Blurs imperfections. Skin looks perfected, vibrant. Gets its' glow back
This has helped me massively in terms of my oily skin. My skin produces less oil and lasts longer without producing it (if that makes sense) I just love it! And it has lasted ages!!
Can see how my pores have shrunk and how my skin just feels so hydrated without being oily.

  • This 3-in-1,oil-free, quick absorbing formula instantly moisturizes and brightens and is great as a revitalizing mask as well as a primer to prep skin for perfect makeup application
Extremely nourishing and hydrating cream that can be used in 3 ways! I love it as a primer as well! My skin feels super hydrated and you can use a lot without feeling weighed down. Very light product. I use this under makeup or if I want extra hydration when I sleep.

If you are a follower of mine (especially on instagram) you already know that I am a huge fan of L'oreal's new skincare range!! After it being recommended to me by a close friend I thought that I would try it out, and now I am hooked! I used to be a fan of the T-Zone products (I still love them they are definitely tried and tested) Photo Credit:  http://www.nytrendymoms.com/2016/07/loreal-paris-pure-clay-mask-review.html I will talk briefly of the masks as I have already discussed them  here , I am currently using the Glow and the Brightening mask. I do feel like my skin has a newer glow/brightness to it as well as clearness however it is subtle. But I have definitely noticed a change in skin texture and feel, my skin feels smoother and my pores are smaller but still there. I am also using the charcoal face wash, which I love as well and it smells like fresh heaven. Now to the holy grail for all those with combination to oily skin!!! Drum roll pleaseeeeeeeee...

I don't really have much of a skincare routine, just thought that I'd mention a few products that I really enjoy! Photo Cred:  http://www.nytrendymoms.com/2016/07/loreal-paris-pure-clay-mask-review.html L'oreal Clay Mask I found this mask by recommendation from a friend and I have to say I am so glad that I got this! Boots have a wide range of these but I chose the Detox Mask (the black one) and from the onset it made my skin lovely and soft. I love using this mask just before I apply my makeup as it creates a flawless and clean base. To apply I use the real techniques foundation brush (I didn't really have much use for it beforehand) and spread an even layer onto my skin, whilst the mask hardens/dries you can see the oil from the pores in your skin. Then simply just wash off.
