My updated skincare routine

Hey, hi, hello!

I know this is a little bit different from my recent postings of Christmas movies galore but I noticed that one of my post popular posts was my skincare. I decided to read what I had written and decided that my skincare had changed and evolved a lot recently! 

so to start I take a cotton pad or 2 or 5 ( depending on my makeup application that day) and use the Sephora Triple Action Cleansing water. I love this stuff but I love the packaging even more! Once this product runs out I'm going to have to find a new cleansing water but I'm going to decant it into this bottle because it is so clean and easy to use! (Advice on new cleansing waters please?) 

Then I go on and use the body shops Nutriganics refreshing toner. This stuff is lovely! I just take another cotton pad and wipe it a cross my face. It really is refreshing! 

After that I go on to using the body shop drops of youth concentrate. Just one big long drop goes onto the back of my hand then dotted around my face. I always put it on so it goes upwards on my face as it makes my face feel like it's had a facelift! As a 22 year old I can only imagine what it would do to someone with real wrinkles!  

Then I go on to the good stuff! The stuff that dreams are made of! The bodyshop drops of youth bouncy sleeping mask! It's not cheep but it's totally worth it! It is like a deep moisturizing mask and you wake up to actual bouncy skin!! This is my ultimate night cream that I never thought I would need!

Lastly, it's time for lipbalm, I just use what ever lip balm is near me at the time as I have A LOT of lip balms! 

Lastly lastly, I use the "this works" sleep roller ball on my pulse points, close my eyes and go to sleep.. This stuff really does work! 

I don't currently have a day time moisturizer, I've just been using my primer for the day before I put anything on!

This has been my routine for about 6 months and I really would/and have repurchase everything! 

I do need your help with finding a new cleanser though as I don't have a Sephora near me and this one is running out fast.  It's also way to expensive to just buy online when you can get a good cleanser for just a couple of pounds!

Let me know what you think about my cousins and if there is anything you would change? 

Over and out, Alanna xx

My everyday skincare routine

Hiya everyone!

Today I thought I would give you a quick overview of my current skincare routine.. 

I have never before been into skincare but this year decided I needed to be so I went to boots and bought some products at the start of the year.  Now after a couple of months I have finally found a routine and products that I really like using!  I used to just use a face wipe then simple moisturiser every night and morning and will still use my simple moisturiser in the mornings when at the gym. 


The first step is to use the Garnier Micellar Cleansing water with 2 cotton pads (more if its a heavy makeup day) and I swear this gets off SO MUCH makeup!! As I said, I used to use face wipes and I still have them but when I found out that there is only 1 ingredients different from a face wipe and a floor wipe I just couldn't continue using them on a daily basis! This water takes off so much dirt even if I'm not wearing make up and I love it so much!

The next step for me is to use my toner.  For this I just use the Boots essentials cucumber facial toner.  I love this stuff!  I started off by buying the whole skin range from the cucumber boots essentials range and I really liked it! the night cream was nice and the cleanser was good too.  I just didn't like having to get up when I used my cleanser and I found a night cream that was better!


After this I go on to using the Lush lip scrub called "The Kiss."  I think this was a valentines day special but there are plenty other lipscrubs that have great reviews online.  I love the smell of this scrub and feel like it has been working wonders on my lips since I started using it!  I don't use this every night but when I've been wearing lipstick all day, its a must!


Once I have done all of the hard work my face feels really fresh and this is the perfect time to put a nice thick night cream on.  I am in love with the Nivea daily essentials regenerating night cream!  I put it on my face and neck before I go to my bed and in the morning my face feels so bouncy and like its full of moisture!  I have gotten all the girls at work onto using night creams as it makes such a difference to me when I am applying make up in the morning!

On my body I use the Zoella creamy madly dreamy body lotion.  I know its a classic youtuber product but I am obsessed with the smell and it feels really nice when applied.  I don't know if I will buy this again but I am enjoying it whilst I have it :)








I am still really new to loving my skin so if anyone has any suggestions I would love some feedback and advice on what I should buy next?

Lots of love
