My Skincare Routine

My skincare routine!! Ooooo exciting! Or not really, it's pretty late and I think I am past that stage of being over tired haha! 

So I don't have a massive skincare routine like a lot of people. And it's pretty simple! 

Step 1: At night I remove all my make-up using Benefit's Remove it make-up remover, £16.50. This if fairly pricey in comparison to make-up wipes you can get for around £3. But I have found wipes very drying, and this has really kept my skin hydrated. Also it removes my make-up a lot better, as I use cotton pads and you can see less and less make-up on each pad you use. 

Step 2: I then move to my bathroom, rinsing my face with pretty warm water, ripping off a chunk of my Movis face soap from Lush, and rubbing this all over my face to cleanse and exfoliate, it isn't at all a harsh exfoliation as I have quite sensitive skin but I feel like my face is really clean afterwards!

Step 4:  I use Benefit's Triple Performing Face Emulsion with SPF15, £21.50. This is a great moisturiser for me and pretty much always keeps away the dry patches I have always suffered with! And it smells fresh too! 

Step 5: Around 3 to 4 times a week I use the Let the Good Times Roll Face and body Cleanser from Lush, this has a slightly grainy texture, smells of caramel and makes my skin so soft! I love it so much I have made my boyfriend try it!

Step 6: I then try to use a face mask once a week, I always go for a Lush one as they are so natural and pure, this months selection is Oatifix


As you can see I stick to Lush or Benefit products, I just feel like Lush is really natural and has always worked for my skin all over my body, and although Benefit is perfumed which can sometimes be a downfall with any product when you have sensitive skin Benefit's products are just really hydrating!

As much as I hate every sip I take I am also trying to drink a lot more water which will do wanders to your skin!

Have you tried any of these? Anything else you can recommend to me?

Let the good times roll

I am a big lover of lush, and not like most people, I don't love the bubble bars and bath bombs, but the face masks and skincare. Let the good times roll has to currently be my favourite face product, granted I probably don't treat my skin as well as I should with skin care routines etc, but this is just Amaaazing!

Lush says 'This face and body cleanser is a gentle treat for the skin, leaving you 
soft to the touch with a buttery popcorn fragrance'

I feel that this gives more of a caramel scent off than popcorn, but then you first buy a pot there is popcorn pieces in the top which I think is a cute little touch. Due to this product being more of a cleanser rather than a scrub it is very finely gritty like sugar almost, which makes the use of it very gentle and not at all harm your skin.


I think this cleanser REALLY works, I went in looking for a cleanser/ scrub because I have fairly dry skin and although I have a foundation that has moisturiser in it sometimes that isn't enough. I wanted a cleanser at this point as I suffer from really dry patches when around some flowers, lillies specifically, and just generally I do suffer from eczema. So I am not a particularly spotty person and I think this could be because I don't have oily skin, but this does help when I do have a couple coming through. This isn't something I use everyday, only two or three times a week and this works for my skin, and leaves your skin feeling sooo soft, I love it, I would recommend it to everyone! 

Happy reading lovelies!
