My Daily Skincare Routine - Ishy


Hi everyone, hope you're all well, I thought I would start the month off with my 'daily skincare routine'. Below are the products I like to use, as I feel they work best on my combination skin.






Garnier Micellar Water 


I love this micellar water by Garnier,
 it is inexpensive and best of all removes my makeup effectively 
leaving my skin feeling 'pure'. I go for the 'oily to combination' bottle as 
I have a oily t-zone and some dry areas around my lips.

Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion


After several months of switching from one lotion to another, some of which included, 
Elizabeth Arden 'miracle complexion' and Body shop 'vitamin E moisture cream' 
I have finally found the perfect daily moisturising cream which suits me well. Aveeno leaves my skin feeling nourished and tackles dry areas very well, I have also noticed that massaging the lotion into my skin before wearing my makeup leaves my face looking even and healthy. I have been using Aveeno for 4 months now, and I don't see myself switching again, YAAAY!  Another benefit is the formulae of the product, this lotion is a great consistency it spreads across the face smoothly without making it feel too dry or oily. 
I apply lotion in the morning after washing my face, and also once after removing my makeup before bed.

Carmex Cherry Lip Balm


Some of you may find it weird that Carmex is actually a part of my daily skincare routine 
but if I'm being honest, can't live without it, I love how carmex just soaks into my lips. 
Using carmex prevents my lips from drying and also leaves them appearing smooth when I apply lipstick! :)I feel that carmex is better than vaseline, it smells nice "mmhhm cherry" and protects my lips (Spf 15) 


St Ives Invigorating Facial Scrub


Although I don't use the Apricot scrub daily, I use it often, 2/3 times a week. This product speaks for itself 'UK's No.1', I have been using it for nearly a year now and even till this day It has the same results on my skin, smooth , fresh feeling, and flawless. I like the texture of the scrub against my skin it isn't too harsh, and doesn't leave my skin feeling sore or looking red. St Ives also offer this product to suit individual skin types for example 'combination skin' 'dry skin', for those of you looking to try it. Lastly its a great inexpensive face scrub which can be purchased at Superdrugs/Boots usually combined with 2 for 1 offers :)


Neutrogena Cream Wash


I use Neutrogena's 'Pink Grapefruit Cream Wash' every morning to start my day, I always opt for the cream edition rather than the gel as it cleanses my skin without overdrying it. The formulae is amazing its a slightly pink silky looking cream which smells of delicious grapefruit freshness. I first started using this product last December 2014 before I went to Bangladesh, I had a horrible break out which I had never experienced before.
 I picked up this face wash whilst I was holiday shopping in Superdrugs, and within 1 week of using it my skin looked and felt 'visibly clear'. The cream wash also removes dirt, oil and impurities to help prevent spots and blackheads.
