Review // La Roche-Posay Effaclar Mat Daily Moisturiser

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Mat Daily Moisturiser 40ml, £14.50 - Boots

I've never been particularly into skincare until this last year. The more I understand my skin and the more I get into the application of makeup the more I understand the importance of taking care of your skin, not only that but recognising what your skins needs are.

My skin type is normal/oily. I am relatively normal around my outer face but the T-zone is rather oily, especially during summer. A lot of this may be down to dehydration but even fully hydrated, I still get oily, so incorporating products into my skincare routine that work for my skin type is something I'm trying master.

Review // Sanctuary Spa Therapists Secret Facial Oil

I'm a strong believer in looking after your skin before anything else, you only have one chance to make your skin look the best it can and it's really important to use the right products for you skin type.

I've been dabbling in skincare for the past year and while my regimen still isn't perfect and I'm still trying and testing new products, one product has really stuck out to me and made a huge difference in my skin.

Accumalating Favourites.

Do you ever sit down to write a blog post and just thing "I have no idea where to even start..." That's me right now.

I haven't written a proper favourites post since *opens new tab to check blog archive* January, where I spoke about my December favourites. I have no idea why, I just haven't, no excuses I've been lazy!

These are my favourite from January, up until now, there isn't a lot but these are ones that have really stood out to me.

Now lets move onto what I've been loving.

Sunless Tanning with St. Tropez.

St Tropez Gradual Tanning Kit, £25 - Debenhams

Sunbeds are not my thing, I'm putting that out there right from the get go. I have been on a sunbed once in my entire 22 years of living and it was for 3 minutes and it was the worst experience of my life.

Skincare // Liz Earl Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser

Liz Earl Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser Starter Kit, £15.50 - FeelUnique.com


I'm pretty sure everyone and their mother, in the beauty world, knows what this product is and what it does. 

I have seen it raved about for years by the likes of Zoella, Louise (Sprinkle of Glitter) and Barbara (The Persian Babe) just to name a few so when my skin started to break out and play up, I decided it was time to really get my skincare regime in order.
