Today I am going to do a quick overview on what I am currently using skincare-wise in the morning.
First off... I have normal-combination skin tending towards dry in the winter and oily in the summer. Also as I wear contact lenses I have quite sensitive eyes and I am always quite pinickity over what I use in that area.
I have recently finished using two thirds of the Clinique 3 Step System: The facial soap and toner are all finished, but I still have some of the Dramatically Different Moisturiser left. I really like this as it provides me with a good base for my make up and makes my face feel all smooth. I am undecided on the facial soap and toner still - I may go back and try these at a later date but for now I am going to see if the moisturiser combined with the other products I'm using is still as effective.
But before I use my moisturiser, I cleanse and tone my face using Garnier Fresh Essentials.
Above is the complete cleansing milk, I do not use this to remove my make up but to cleanse my skin from the dirt overnight and the dead skin cells.
...And this is the invigorating toner. From the bottle you can see that it does not contain any alcohol - this is a bit of a difference in comparison to the Clinique I was using previously which seemed to have a drying effect on my skin. These two products really help to refresh and revitalise my face in the morning. I also find the smell and cool texture (especially of the toner) help to wake me up in the morning.
Around my eyes I am using the Simple Kind to Eyes Balm. I find this really effective in soothing the eyes. It retails around the £4 mark which is very very reasonable. As I am only 20 I don't need an anti ageing eye cream yet, just something to soothe the odd bit of puffiness I get. This does work wonders!

Thats it!
My daytime skincare is very simple but (in my eyes) effective.
Love Always,
