Current Skincare Routine

 My plan to fibroblast above my brows was shelved thanks to my hubby inviting some friends over on the weekend. Not wanting to have to explain the effects of the mole pen, but still wanting to have a blog post, I decided that instead I would show you my morning and evening skincare routines.


Since regularly doing more invasive beauty treatments, I have really simplified my skincare routine. The brand of the products may change but the type of products remain the same.

AM- Cleanse my face with water, using a facial cleansing cloth

Hydrating toning mist

Vitamin C serum

Sunscreen, lately I have been preferring to use a sunscreen stick.

Yep, that's it! I believe vitamin C is important and is a contant in my skincare routine. Now that I use hydrating injectables, I know longer feel the need for a daily moisturiser.


PM- I like to use a cleanser at night to make sure I'm removing the sunscreen.

I then alternate between a retinol product 3 times a week and then for 2 nights I add 3 drops of a high percentage acid (at the moment it's 70 % glycolic acid) into a moisturiser. I just use a budget-friendly moisturiser because I only need a product to dilute the acid.


Occasionally if I'm fortunate enough to be sent a product to trial, that's the only time I have more steps in my routine. 

I love having such an easy skincare routine and my skin seems to also!

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
