Thought Id share my fave budget skincare buys as being a mummy of 2 does not leave loads of spare money for high end products and also I'm crap at keeping up with a proper skincare routine being that I can be lazy and sometimes I just simply do not have the time or energy once I have put my munchkins to bed.
So firstly we have Boots cucumber cleansing wipes
What boots say about this product is
Boots Essentials Cucumber Cleansing Wipes contain extract of
cucumber to help gently soften and soothe. Enriched with soothing
cucumber Aloe Vera and Vitamin E, Cucumber Cleansing Wipes work to
remove make-up and excess oils, leaving skin clean, soft and smooth.
Boots Essentials Cucumber Wipes are suitable for all skin types
I have to say that these leave my skin super soft , and can even deal with taking off my eye makeup too and considering I use waterproof mascara and eyeliner that is really good . I use these when I'm stuck for time at night time and in the morning to refresh my face before moisturising and applying primer before doing my make-up. They are are a bargain at £1.99 and are often on 3 for 2 for bogof. In fact my skin has improved since using these so I am tempted to try these when I run out of moisturiser and my current cleansing lotion which I will come to in a minute.
Next is my cleansing wash called gentle foaming cleanser which I got using my No7 voucher for £5 off , I spotted it at the till and thought I would give it a go
Here's what Boots say on their website:-
No7 Gentle Foaming Cleanser works in harmony with your skin to leave your face clean, comfortable and radiant.
I really like this it makes me skin feel really refreshed when I use it and doesn't dry my skin out also it is a foam which I like and one pump is enough for each use I may repurchase this using my voucher again it retails at £7.75 which is not a bad price anyway but is only £2.75 when used with a voucher.
Next is my garnier pure active spot fighting 24 hr moisturiser , I bought this from sainsbury's when I was having a hormonal breakout and it has cleared it right up.
What Garnier say :-
It's a NEW and effective moisturiser that helps protect against the
appearance of spots before they appear. Moreover, it improves the skin's
appearance by hydrating it and visibly reducing shine. The product is
enriched with Salicylic Acid and helps to deeply purify and mattify
skin
to protect against spots even before they appear.
Now I do not know if it is this moisturiser or one of the above products or the sheer combo of them all but my skin is super clear and feels very soft so I'm enjoying using this only downside is does have that medicated smell that you get from acne products but it's a small price to pay for clear skin. I use this at night and in the morning before I put my make up primer on.
