Happy weekend lovelies! Today I am talking skincare! I share the six skincare products that have changed my skin for the better! Saying that I love them would be an understatement.
In 2020 the skincare industry soared, growing faster than any other market within the beauty community! Especially when it comes to “clean” skincare products. This is something that is really important to me and all of the products I mention below are considered “clean” products by Sephora.
Keep reading if you want to hear about my favourites!
MARIO BADESCU FACIAL SPRAY
I love a good facial mist. With the winter months in full swing and the dryness in the air at an all time high, I find myself craving any form of extra moisture.
The Mario Badescu Facial Spray with aloe, herbs and rosewater is my go to. Personally, I use it as a little pick me up when I need some extra hydration to leave my skin feeling dewy and rejuvenated. I love to use it on clean skin after I wash my face but you can honestly use it anytime you want as a toner, refresher or even setting spray!
This facial mist feels light on the skin and has a fresh scent that is not too perfumey. It is a great addition to any skincare routine, especially if you are often exposing your skin to excess amounts of sunlight. The aloe deeply soothes the skin and boosts hydration. It also contains natural ingredients such as rose, gardenia and thyme extracts.
Definitely a nice product to have in my collection that I find myself continuously reaching for!
GLOW RECIPE PINEAPPLE-C BRIGHT SERUM
In my personal opinion, everyone needs a good vitamin C serum in their skincare routine. Benefits in using a vitamin C serum include reducing redness and evening out skin tone. They hydrate and brighten the skin and can help promote collagen production to help with fine lines and wrinkles. I mean, who doesn’t want vibrant, beautiful skin?!
The Pineapple-C Bright Serum is lightweight and easily absorbs into the skin. It contains natural ingredients such as pineapple juice and chamomile to help brighten and even skin tone. I love that it is vegan and cruelty free and it smells amazing!
I have been pretty lucky in the fact that I haven’t suffered from much acne in the past, although I have always struggled with some slight discolouration and redness on my skin. Since using this product, I have noticed a huge difference! My skin appears brighter and more vibrant and I no longer have any redness or discolouration.
FRESH LOTUS YOUTH PRESERVE NIGHT MOISTURIZER
The Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Night Moisturizer is my go to moisturizer for my night time skincare routine. It is light and creamy and doesn’t feel too heavy on my skin, while still providing so much moisture! It also smells amazing, kind of like fresh papaya in my opinion.
This product is made with super lotus which helps to deeply moisturize and protect against free-radicals which can cause harm to your skin. It also helps aid in anti-aging by improving the skins elasticity.
I am all about anti-aging moisturizers, especially when they are lightweight and hydrate as well as this one does. I have used 2 full size jars of this product and am now working my way through a travel size that I got in a Fresh holiday set from Sephora. This is a product I will continue to purchase over and over without a doubt!
SUMMER FRIDAYS JET LAG MASK
The Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask has been all the rage in the beauty community since early 2018. I would always see this pretty blue tube all over social media and noticed this mask always seemed to be sold out. I knew I had to try it out for myself to see what all the hype was about.
I first tried this product about a year ago and I really like how this face mask feels on my skin. It has a thick, creamy consistency but absorbs nicely without feeling heavy. I like the subtle hint of peppermint that leaves my skin feeling refreshed.
You can use this product in multiple ways which is nice! I like to put a thick layer over my skin after I get out of the shower as the heat opens the pores so you receive maximum benefit. After about 10 minutes or so I gently wipe away any excess product that hasn’t absorbed into my skin with warm water. This mask leaves my face feeling extremely hydrated and revitalized!
Keep in mind that recently this product has had some issues with the manufacturing side of things as a few batches were compromised. I really do hope it will be available to purchase again soon so you can try it for yourself, as I highly recommend!
FRESH SUGAR FACE POLISH
This is one of my holy grail skincare products. For a long time I had been on the hunt for the perfect natural exfoliator. I would always find that products felt either too ruff and damaging on my skin or the polar opposite and were too gentle and made no difference.
I come across the Fresh Sugar Face Polish and instantly fell in love after only one use. This was the product that turned me on to the brand Fresh and now I seriously can’t get enough of their products! I have to remind myself to try new products and not always lean on this brand because I love it so much.
The Sugar Face Polish is a natural exfoliating facial scrub made from brown sugar and strawberry seeds. This product is very moisturizing and gently evens out skin texture and rough, dry patches. I use it 1-2 times a week and it has changed my skin in the best way!
WASH CLOTH MAKEUP ERASER
This last product is not a skincare product, but a wash cloth that I have been using for about two years now. These are machine washable cloths with a soft surface that is meant to gently remove makeup and build up on your skin with only water!
Personally, I use it as a normal face cloth to cleanse my skin after removing my makeup because they are so soft and gentle. Even after removing my makeup prior to cleansing, this wash cloth removes anything that may be left behind deep in the pores, leaving my skin flawlessly clean. They have honestly made such a difference in my skin and I definitely recommend trying them!
Well, there you have it! The six skincare products that I love oh so much!
