The body shop has been a brand I was very fond of as a teen with very normal skin. As i progressed on my skincare journey i began to use a more variety of products from different brands. I believe the bodyshop is a good place to begin if you're new to skincare as it has quite a diverse range of products.

I have come to be quite loyal to some of their products, the Himalayan clay mask ( which i believe is their most popular product). Is the only clay mask I have ever enjoyed using I've reviewed it before but its perfect for oily/congested skin and does not strip your skin in anyway. I often feel that I have had a facial every time I use this product.

New to me is their cleansing butter infused with chamomile I used this as a first step in my skincare routine. It breaks down all my makeup/spf and so on and honestly is so gentle. I only need to use a small amount and all my make up is off. Its so much better for you than face wipes.
Lastly I picked up the tea tree night lotion if I'm being brutally honest I find acids more useful if you're prone to breakouts. However I paired this with my Salicylic acid these last couple of nights and it works a treat.

Hello ,Beautiful people, It's been a long time since I wrote a blog post and honestly post uni life naturally made me fall off but I'm back nonetheless.

I thought it would be good to share what I have been currently using since my last blog post which was quite awhile ago my skin has changed a lot. I went from having combination skin to very hormonal skin and honestly it's been difficult navigating skincare. It's always just been something i've enjoyed doing but now my skincare needs have become more demanding which I guess means more blog posts !

The first product I have to mention is the paulas choice salicylic acid the is only the trial size and I do plan to purchase the full size. I honestly cannot explain how much this product has helped my skin. Salicylic acid is such a game changer its a gentle exfoliant which helps to penetrate the skin deeper. I feel like my skin is less congested when I use this and it also helps reduce the size of my spots and calms my skin down. I have a habit of picking at my skin and this honestly has eased the damage that I have done.

I'm still using glycolic acid from Nip+Fab I dont think I'll ever stop repurchasing this product its also always avaliable for cheaper at TK Maxx. Its just a great liquid exfoliant that helps to smooth and improve the texture of my skin.

Two Korean skincare products I've been using is the Cosrx Aloe vera gel and Klairs vitamin C. I've always loved Korean skincare products but having to buy from different websites has been off putting for me. The Klairs vitamin C is only  5% so its very gently i use it at night and always wake up with more glowy skin.With long term use i believe it will help get ride of all the scarring I have. The Cosrx moisturiser is great for people with oily skin its very hydrating but doesn't make you feel greasy.

Lastly I've always loved using tea tree water and if I wasn't lazy I could probably make it at home but will leave that for another day !
