Recently, I have paid very close attention to my skin and realised I haven't really paid much attention to my skin. I realised that my skin care regime was basically non existent. When I went to Jersey Gardens in New Jersey, I decided to start taking care of my skin so i bought some show gel and body lotion that is absolutely amazing. i think each bottle is about $20 each but it is sooooo worth it. They smell absolutely amazing and they last very long on the skin.
When I got back to the UK, I bought my clean and clear products so I could keep my face fresh and oil free during the day whilst preventing any spots or white heads appearing at any time. Now that it's summer, I am being a bit more diligent with my regime so that the sun doesn't damage my skin, so my skin is hydrated, so my skin is not clogged up when I put make up on. I think the face is one part of the body that is neglected by many people, we are supposed to take extra care of our faces because they are always exposed to weather conditions and always need to be hydrated but most people have no idea what there face needs (I was one of those people). I have decided to learn about what my skin type needs and how to take care of my face and body not just so it looks good now, but so it can look good and remain elasticated even when I'm in my 60s and 70s.
I usually scrub my face with warm water and the daily exfoliator which is not as harsh as most exfoliators so it can be used on a daily basis. I then splash my face with cold water (as warm water opens the pores, cold water is needed to close them so you are not open for spot invasion). Once I pat dry my face, I add the oil free moisturiser, I always use as much as i need, I don't believe you can use too much of oil free moisturiser, there's only so much that you can put on your face anyway so I put a fair amount on to cover all the areas then if I'm going out, I apply my make up.
I use the botanicals firming gel every now and again to maintain firm skin and the soap and glory Clean on me just smells amazing so I use it every now and again too.




I'm quite bad with my daily routine, I only use a cleanser and moisturiser. I should probably start using an exfoliator and maybe toner aswell! x

I think everyone should improve their skin routine, especially as summer is almost here. In summer layers and layers of make-up only makes us look like we have cakey make up so it's best to have better skin so we can afford to put less make-up on. I've tried it, I think it's worth buying some. Get a few testers from the body shop or Lush, they have loads of great products.
