Here is finally a third part of my 2014 favourites: you can see part one here and part two here. This time it is all about skincare…
Cleansers
Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm (Review) This was definitely my favourite cleanser of the year, it smells divine, feels gentle on the skin and leaves it smooth and plumped. Having a massage with it is so relaxing and pampering, a great way to finish off a busy day and have some “me” time.
One-Step Facial Cleanser with Orange Extract (review)
When I am in a rush, and don’t have time for a “proper” cleanse, which is usually in the mornings, – this is the product I reach for. I find that it works great for my dry and sensitive skin, removes the makeup and does leave the skin feeling amazing, as if I did the whole cleanse-tone routine. Did I mention the lovely scent?
Clarins Gentle Exfoliator Brightening Toner (review)
Another Clarins product, a non-harsh exfoliating toner. I use it about three times per week, and not only on my face, but also on the back of my hands, too. This is definitely a re-purchase for the future.
Creams
Jo Malone Vitamin E Moisturising Day Crème SPF15 (Review)
I wasn’t a big fan of this cream at first, but later it became a favourite of mine, it instantly transforms even “dull” skin – it feels moisturized and looks radiant and smooth.
Algenist Advanced Anti-Aging Repairing Oil (Review)
This is an expensive product but is so worth it. Only one drop makes a huge difference, it is efficient on it’s own but with a cream it works wonders. I also love using it before makeup (works for my dry skin) for that healthy look.
REN Optimum Skin Serum Oil (review)
I am using a third bottle of this, and refuse to be without it! It works wonders even for my very dry and sensitive skin – it looks glowing and feel incredible afterwards. I have written so many times about it , that won’t repeat it all over again.
FOM London Revitalising Eye Care Balm (review)
I have used up this eye cream till the last drop, this is how much I love it – nice hydrating texture, which is exactly what I need for my under-eye area. FOM London is a brand that I would recommend in general.
And, yes, I am aware that I’ve used the words “glowing” and “radiant” about ten times – but that is what I am looking for in skincare.
