My Skincare Routine


For this blog post I will talk about the products I use in my skincare routine and I will also talk about how I remove my makeup too.  For my sensitive skin I have been using Simple products. I love them because they don't irritate my skin.




You can purchase the above products from Boots and Dunnes Stores and the Micellar water can be bought at Penneys.

To remove makeup I mostly use Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water and the Simple eye makeup remover.
To start removing my makeup I usually start with my eye makeup first. I use the Simple eye makeup remover on a cotton pad and I hold it down on my eyes for about 15 seconds and let it soften the mascara to make it easier to remove.


To remove my foundation I use a generous amount of the Micellar Cleansing water on a cotton wool pad.

   

Now on to the main part of this blog. Firstly I use the kind to skin purifying cleansing lotion. This product is great for removing excess makeup that might have been left on your skin. To use this I put a pea size amount on a cotton wool pad and wipe my face with it.


Then after cleanser I use the toner. Toner is used to prepare your skin for moisturizing. Toner also helps close open pores on your face which could trap dirt, oils and debris.


On my eyes I use the Simple soothing eye balm.  I really love this after removing my eye makeup my eyes tend to sore from all the rubbing so this product is good to help relieve the soreness. The balm also helps reduce puffiness and nourishes the skin around my eyes.


The last thing to do is to moisturise. I have been using the simple hydrating light moisturiser. I find that the light moisturiser is good for sensitive skin. It doesn’t leave my skin feeling dry or rough and it also absorbs slowly in to my skin.


A few times a week I use the Clean and Clear blackhead clearing daily scrub. The special exfoliating micro-beads help unclog pores while the blackhead fighting ingredient penetrates the pores and help clear impurities and prevent blackheads from forming.


I find these products work for my skin type and I can’t tell you how important it is to take the time to find the right products that suit your skin type.

A good skincare routine, followed by drinking loads of water and a good night sleep can help your skin look and feel younger.

So thats it from me I hope that this has helped you in some way and if you have any questions feel free to send them on.

I will leave the link to my Facebook and Instagram below feel free to check them out.

Thanks for reading.

My First Blog Post - My favourite foundation.

Ok so for my first blog post I would tell you a little bit about myself and why I have started my blog. I will also share with you my favourite foundation. I am a 20 year old makeup artist living in Ireland and I have an obsession with makeup, what makeup artist doesn't ? I have started my blog to share my opinions of different beauty products and share my thoughts on them.

Back to the main article of this post, my favourite foundation and that is the Collection Cosmetics Lasting Perfection foundation in no.2 Ivory. I don't really have anything bad to say about this foundation, so I will tell you all the good bits about it.
 


 
 
 
No. 1: Like it says on the bottle it lasts up to 16 hours and doesn't need touching up through out the day.
No.2: Its a good coverage foundation, it minimises imperfections and also doesn't cake if you try to build it up. 
No.3: This foundation also has an spf of 20 which is good if you like to wear makeup in the sun like I always do.
No.4: Its only €8.49 in Boots and there is nothing better than not having to pay a lot of money for a good foundation.
 
 
 
So there you have my first blog post. I hope that it has helped you and if you decide to try out the foundation comment below what you thought about it.
 
 
Thanks for reading and if there is anything you would like me to review or write about just leave me a comment or send me a message on my social media. I will leave the link to my Facebook and Instagram. 
 
 
Until next time.
