What are some products you didn’t expect to love

What are some products you didn’t expect to love as much as you do?⁣
⁣
For me it’s the @AlliesofSkin Molecular Silk Amino Hydrating Cleanser and the @FentySkin Hydra Vizor Invisible Moisturiser. There was so much talk about both products, I didn’t think they would live up to their expectations. But for me, they did!⁣
⁣
It took some time for me to warm up to the Allies of Skin cleanser, as it’s so different from my usual Cerave cleansers. But I’m really enjoying the way it makes my skin feel.⁣
⁣
As for the Fenty Skin SPF. For my oily skin, it’s one of the best moisturiser/SPF combos I’ve tried. It sinks in wonderfully, works well with other products, and doesn’t flake off. Plus, it gives my skin this healthy, summer glow that my skin desperately needs in these Scottish winters.⁣
⁣
Have you tried either of these?⁣
What are your thoughts?

After 6 months of using the Dermatica Tretinoin, l

After 6 months of using the Dermatica Tretinoin, last night was my final application. I was applying it pretty much every single day and not really seeing a huge difference. But like most things, it was probably me and not them 🥲 ⁣
⁣
I’ve decided to start using the Allies of Skin Retinal as so many of you have raved about it. But before then, I want to give my skin a couple of days rest (lol). My routine is going to be completely stripped back, consisting of only the essentials…⁣
⁣
🌙 @officialmedik8 • Advanced Night Eye⁣
An incredibly nourishing eye cream which firms and plumps the under eye area. My first venture into Medik8 and it doesn’t disappoint. ⁣
⁣
🌙 @theinkeylist • Vitamin B, C and E Moisturizer⁣
My holy grail moisturiser. A simple, no-fuss moisturiser that works wonders. it’s perfect for when you’re taking it easy, but still want a lil something. ⁣
⁣
🌙 @deviantskincare • Facial Oil⁣
One of the greatest oils I’ve tried. Super lightweight on the skin, but packs a punch. I find a few drops of this gently pressed into the skin makes a world of difference to my skin.⁣
⁣
And that’s it. Super-duper simple. I might even add a hydrating serum if I’m feeling adventurous, but probably not.⁣
⁣
Are you currently using a retinoid?⁣
And if so, what are you using?⁣

I’ve been using the @fentyskin Fat Water pretty

I’ve been using the @fentyskin Fat Water pretty much day and night for two weeks, so I thought now would be good time to give you my first impressions.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Although named Fat Water, I don’t find anything ‘Fat’ about it… Sure it’s thicker than your regular toner, but I actually found it to be a lot thinner than my usual morning serums. Perhaps that’s why it’s meant to be a hybrid, who knows?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Anyways, it’s got big, big claims… Supposedly it helps target pores, brighten the skin, improve the look of dark spots, smooths, and fights shine! All whilst hydrating! Now I’ve got to say, I did find it hydrating. Hydrating enough for me to skip my usual morning Hyaluronic Acid serum, but that’s where the results kind of stopped. Sure, it’s probably way too soon to notice any brightening results, but I didn’t notice a reduction in shine nor my pore visibility. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
As for the fragrance; at first I didn’t really notice it, but the more I use it, the stronger it gets! But I don’t mind it. It’s not overly intense and it doesn’t linger for too long either. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I know a lot of you have said that this range would be good for someone wanting to develop a routine, and I have to agree. If you’ve never used a toner/serum before, then sure this would be good. But I feel like it would be one of those products that once you finish, you’re probably going to purchase an actual serum. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
All-in-all, do I regret buying this? No⁣⁣
Is it revolutionary? Not really⁣⁣
Would I repurchase this? Probably not⁣⁣
Do I feel included on Instagram now that I own it? Yep ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I think if you’re going to purchase one item from the Fenty Skin range, go for the moisturiser/SPF combo. I’ve been using that every morning and I absolutely love it. Dare it say it could be my favourite SPF? Perhaps!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Have you tried anything from Fenty Skin?⁣⁣
What do you think? Let me know!

Using up my last of @theinkeylist’s Kaolin Clay

Using up my last of @theinkeylist’s Kaolin Clay mask for this weeks Texture Tuesday

A great mask all-in-all, but I’ve had this open since March so it’s probably time to give it a new home. And by new home, I mean my acrylic sheet where I take my texture shots 🤪!

Anyways, happy Tuesday!
What products are you trying to finish?

💧 Kickstarting the week with some steamy goodn

💧 Kickstarting the week with some steamy goodness featuring the Thirst Trap Juice serum from @wishfulskin⁣
⁣
I loved their original Thirst Trap sheet mask. It was probably one of my favourite sheet masks of all time; Incredibly hydrating, soothing on the skin, and not to mention the mesh material hugged your face like an absolute dream.⁣
⁣
However, it’s 2021. And in 2021 I’m trying to be smarter with my purchases, which means no single-use products, no matter how great they are.⁣
⁣
But that’s why the Thirst Trap Juice Serum came at the right time; incorporating all the goodness from their sheet mask, but less waste and more uses! Win-win.⁣
⁣

It seems the espresso martinis and mince pies have

It seems the espresso martinis and mince pies have finally caught up to me, as my post-Christmas breakout has arrived 🥲⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
I say "post-Christmas", but the Christmas feast started before December, and has continued into January...⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Breakouts can be quite rare for me, but the ones I do get are deep, stubborn, and painful as hell! They tend to appear at my temples, across my jawline, and in the upper lip/nose crevices.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
A simple routine like the one pictured usually does the trick for me, but I’d love to find out some of your favourite breakout fighting products/ingredients?⁣
⁣
I know a lot of you guys love to use pimple patches, but I’ve never found a pair that actually help. I know they’re supposed to be discreet, but every time I’ve used one, the area becomes even more inflamed. Either that or they get stuck to my fingers as I’m opening them! 😂⁣⁣⁣
⁣
But yeah, let me know! 😀🖤⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣

Happy 2021!⁣ Have you guys made a new years reso

Happy 2021!⁣
Have you guys made a new years resolution?⁣
⁣
My New Years resolution is to consume less, spend smarter, and to streamline my skincare routine. I want to only include products in my collection that truly fit a purpose - no more buying the latest stuff, just because I saw it on Instagram! 🥲 Essentials only!⁣
⁣
If there's going to be one product that can streamline my routine, it's the Prebiotics & Niacinamide Pore Refining Booster from Allies of Skin. A powerhouse cocktail of Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, Prebiotics, and Probiotics. It's a one-stop-shop for healthier skin!⁣
⁣
Hopefully as I start to declutter my collection, I can find more products that are multitaskers. I know that's super contradictory, that's just who I am...⁣
⁣
Any recommendations?⁣
⁣
P.S. If you see me breaking this, please just pretend you didn't 🙂

My last post for 2020 had to be @fentyskin!! Proba

❄️ Snowy texture to celebrate Christmas Eve Ev

❄️ Snowy texture to celebrate Christmas Eve Eve!

This is the @typologyparis 4% Zinc PCA + Bamboo Extract Purifying Moisturiser

It’s new to my routine, but here are some rapid fire first impressions:
💧 Works great at keeping my oily skin matte!
💧 However, almost a little too mattifying for my personal preference
💧 Layers well with my sunscreen, but too much product can cause it to flake off
💧 Works best as a targeted-area night time moisturiser
💧 Helps reduce the size of blemishes - pretty much overnight

Is it my favourite moisturiser? Nope. But it seems like a product that I would most likely reach for once the weather gets warmer, or whenever I have a breakout!

Anyways! Happy holidays everyone 😊

Hope everyone’s having a lovely festive holiday!

Hope everyone’s having a lovely festive holiday!! The Inkey List kindly sent me a little holiday gift featuring all the products up there 👆, plus a bunch of badges and stickers [PR]⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the products I’m most excited to try is the Salicylic Acid cleanser as so many of you guys rave about it!! I’ll most likely start introducing it into my routine once I’ve emptied my CeraVe one!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
They also included two bottles of the Caffeine Scalp Treatment, which I tried back in July when it first launched on Cult Beauty. However in all honesty, I wasn’t the biggest fan of it; the product itself was fine, I just found the applicator super annoying. But it’s good to see it has since been relaunched with new packaging. Hopefully this time around I’ll enjoy it more!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
🖤⁣⁣
⁣⁣
⚡️ Side note: are you making any resolutions for 2021?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Mine is to consume less! Fewer products, less food, and less time spent on technology! For me, 2020 has been the year of massive consumption. I’ve spent the majority of the year binging anything I see insight, non-stop buying, and endless scrolling, so it’s time to reduce that!⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Once again, have a lovely holiday if you’re celebrating! 👋 ⁣⁣
