Hey
there lovely readers!
Okay
confession time...when it comes to skincare I'll admit I've not given as much attention as I should, especially considering I'm now
in my late twenties. There was also the slight problem of it all just
confusing the heck out of me! I'd find myself reading posts of
bloggers skincare routines containing 152613 different products &
my mind would implode! However this is something that I plan on
rectifying & I've slowly realized that it doesn't have to be
complicated rocket science & discovered a few skincare gems that
have been a delight to use. One can only pray to the skincare gods
that I've not let my tardiness cause any long lasting effects haha!
My
skin has thankfully never been too problematic which is a blessing
considering my neglectful ways, other than being sensitive & a
tad on the dry side. Another admission for you seeing as I'm on
roll....I've only in the past 5 years actually made the effort to
remove my makeup before bed *cue gasps of horror*...I know. Again
this just falls down to my utter laziness so when it came to finding
the right product to remove my makeup the USP for me would be speed &
ease. Enter at this point CLEANSING OILS! Discovering these bad boys
was a definite game changer & I actually found myself
anticipating my makeup removal come evening...what can I say? My
oddness knows no bounds.
A
few of my tried, tested & loved favorites include the NUDE Perfect Cleansing Oil (RRP £28), No7 Beautiful Skin Cleansing Oil
(RRP £11) & one which, until recently, beat them all, The BodyShop Chamomile Silky Cleansing Oil (RRP £12). This stuff was the
bees knees of cleansers, removing even the most hardcore of mascaras
without irritating the eyes quickly & effectively. However I had
one MAJOR gripe with it...the pump bottle packaging! I took this on a
weekend away with me & the oil LEAKED EVERYWHERE. Not fun. I've
even appealed to the lovely BodyShop peeps about this because I love
it so much, hopefully they'll work on changing it!
However until they do, they have themselves some serious competition as I've now discovered a new cleansing oil that may have reached HG pedestal status it is THAT good. Enter at this point Vichy Beautifying Cleansing Micellar Oil (RRP £13.75)
