It has been a hot minute since I felt excited about skincare or makeup, but recently the love for both of those things sparked again! I went crazy and made so many orders, I am actually scared to add up the total because I know it put a serious dent in my bank account… a serious dent! I made some amazing discoveries when it came to skincare and I am so excited to share my love for these products with you. These have been my go-to’s when my skin has been crying for help and have undoubtedly become staples in my skincare routine.
I heard about the Noni Glow Face Balm by Kora Organics through Allana’s channel. I recently found her on YouTube and I can’t believe I didn’t know about her sooner. I have been binge watching her videos pretty much on a daily basis and I honestly can’t get enough. If you’re looking for someone new to watch who is informative but is also super hilarious, look no further! Anyway, back to the product. This is perfect for on the go. It’s small and compact so it fits in your pocket if you don’t fancy carrying a bag with you. It’s a very moisturising balm that comes in a handy twist up stick, so you can just glide it over your face at any point you feel like you need some hydration. I personally like to use it when my skin is feeling a little tight and dry. Sometimes I layer it over my normal skincare, other times I use it on its own. I mainly love it for travelling as my skin tends to shrivel up during flights, so I just whack this out, sweep it over my face and it really helps to make my skin feel comfortable again. It’s also a great one for after the gym if you don’t want to carry your whole skincare drawer with you.
An oldie but a goodie, the Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream. This one isn't a new discovery, in fact I’ve lost count of how many tubes of this I’ve gone through. My favourite use for this is when I have a cold, or when my skin is so dry that it cracks. This has a very thick consistency and I love to rub a generous amount over my nose before going to bed. It never fails to amaze me! I could go to bed with the driest, most flaky nose, and I will always wake up to a smooth one the morning after using this. It’s a miracle worker! I also love to rub it in my cuticles before bed.
My friend Veronika introduced me to the Weleda Skin Food cream back in October. I remember loving it and saying that I would buy it, but ended up forgetting about it. Thanks to Allana I was reminded of this fabulous product again. It feels like I’m repeating myself but this is also a very thick cream and everything I have been missing in my life! I love to apply this to my elbows and knees, but I mainly love putting this on my face after a long week of flights. It makes my skin feel like a baby’s bum, so soft! I bought the small tube in case it broke me out, but now that I know that my skin loves it, I will be buying the bigger size.
What are your skincare saviours?
Lots of love,
SFS.
