Morning and night skincare routine

Hey, this is my current skincare routine. The products i use change a lot depending on the time of year and what state my skin is in. My skin is quite oily and very sensitive. 

Morning



 St. Ives fresh skin apricot scrub - first of all i exfoliate my face with this divine smelling scrub. I havent had this long but my face is so smooth at the moment and i think its all down to this. Plus apricot is one of my favourite scents so its a bonus!


Clean&Clear deep cleansing lotion - After i have washed my face, i use my trusty cotton pads and this cleanser. i love this stuff! its great, it refreshes your face and dries into your skin so no need to wash it off. Also, its so cheap (£2.99)!

















Simple hydrating light moisturiser/Dove summer glow in medium to dark- for my moisturiser i use one of these two. I love them both but the simple is so much better to moisturise your skin properly. The dove is a tinted moisturiser so it gradually builds up a slight tan. The only thing is it makes my face tingle if its feeling particularly sensitive.


Evening


Soap & Glory - Peaches and Clean 4-in-1 - I use this to remove my makeup. I love the smell of this and it does an amazing job of getting all my eye-makeup off. It doesn't get all my foundation off though but most of it does come off.

After i have removed my makeup, my routine is the same as the morning.



 Avon planet spa face mask & Lush bubblegum lip scrub- When i have my pamper evenings (once or twice a week) i use these aswell as everything else. I have only used the face mask twice so i haven't really made my mind up about it, but so far so good. Lush's bubblegum lip scrub is really good. It smells and tastes (as you can lick it off of your lips) amazing. It makes my lips feel so smooth and soft.

GlossyBox review - June

Hey, i know this is a bit late but this is my review of my GlossyBox i received this month. I was fairly happy with what i got. This months box was themed with a 'Summer look'. 

GlossyBox;
What is it? it is a box with 5 LARGE samples of beauty products.
How often do i receive it? every month
How much is it? well it is £10 if you pay every time you get it or you can have monthly plans (e.g. 3-months, 12-months etc.) 

First of all, the box it comes in is lovely. even the shipping box is quite nice. It it wrapped in tissue paper and tied with a ribbon with a little GlossyBox sticker. 

You also get a short guide on how to use all your products and what they do.


Figs & Rouge, coco rose lip balm (£5 for 12.5ml) : This lip balm has a slight pink tint and shimmer to it. It smells just like roses which i'm not too keen on. Also, it dries quite quickly, so it's more of a quite fix than a long wear balm. Overall i'm not majorly impressed with this but it is ok. 





Helen E shimmer eye powder (£5 for 1.5g) : this pink eye powder looks really dark and pigmented but when i tried it for the first time today, i was quite surprised that it is just pink shimmers. I was a little bit disappointed but it still looks nice just to brighten up the eye and give a bit more colour to the face.  


MEMEME long lasting nail gloss (£5 full size) : i was quite happy to see a nail polish in my GlossyBox this month as i love painting my nails and trying out new colours. This one looks quite pink on this photo but its pretty much white. To be quite honest, i'm not sure what it is, a base coat, top coat or colour? it says its a colour but it simply has no (well very little) colour to it. 


NUXE Huile prodigieuse (I have no idea what that means): I haven't actually used this yet but it looks fairly good. It's a dry oil with gold shimmers in it. It says you can use it on your face, body and hair to hydrate and nourish. I don't think i will use this on my face but i will certainly try it out on my hair.



MONU Professional Skincare, Hydrating moisteriser SPF 15 (£29.95 for 50ml) : again i haven't used this properly yet but i have swatched this on the back of my hand. It feels quite thick and heavy which i'm not really a fan of. I will probably end up giving this to my mum as she is always moaning about her moisterisers.



Hope you enjoyed this. Lib x
