Evening
Guys!
I have
been wanting to post this blog for weeks and am super excited for you guys to
read what I have to say about the incredibly products I picked up at The Body
Shop! A few weeks ago a friend of mine and I were talking
about facial products and she swore by body shop so I knew I had to try it.
The following week I went to my nearest body shop and met the nicest lady
who helped me find the products I needed, and showed me on the back of my hand
how and in what order to use the products I had bought. I don't exactly
have bad skin, in fact I actually have fairly nice healthy skin but I have a
few problem areas I really wanted to fix up and I honestly just wasn't looking
after my skin; so I wanted to start a daily routine so my skin would stay
healthier as we only have one chance to get it right, right?
So,
these are the products I purchased with the help of the lovely lady, (from left
to right) the Seaweed Clarifying Toner, The Aloe Calming Facial Cleanser, The
Tea Tree Squeaky-Clean Scrub, The Seaweed Deep Cleansing Facial Wash, (Top) The
Seaweed Ionic Clay Mask, The Seaweed Mattifying Lotion and The Tea Tree Blemish
Fade Night Lotion. Now as most would know not all of these products are used in
my everyday routine however the majority of them are. In the mornings
before I do anything with my face I will use the Cleanser to clean off any dead
skin cells or dirt that may have been transferred to my face from my pillow,
then I will follow that with the Facial wash using the little pad to really
clean out my pores. After washing my face like this I will then pat my
face dry with my towel because at this stage I don't want to rub or hurt my
face as it's quite sensitive. The next step is using my Toner and I place
this on a little cotton pad and just dab this over my face; I use this purely
because I do have oily skin and unfortunately I work in a kitchen so it also
gets really greasy. To finish off my morning routine I then use my Seaweed
Moisturiser and before applying makeup I always make sure to use a
primer.
At
night after I've finished my day I do almost the exact same routine however I
start by using my Makeup remover for oily skin to remove my eye makeup then go
in with my cleanser and after my moisturiser before I go to bed I will use my
Blemish Fade Night Lotion to reduce my blemishes the next day!
The
two products above I use approximately once weekly, twice if I'm lucky and once
fortnightly if I'm not so lucky. I use these in conjunction with my
nightly routine so after I cleanse my face I will use the Squeaky Clean Scrub
to basically exfoliate the skin, then I will go in with the mask and leave that
for ten or so minutes to draw out dirt and impurities from the pores while also
helping to re-balance the skin and revitilise the complexion.
The only issue - if you could call it that - would be that the facial
mask leaves the top of my cheeks really sensitive however as soon as I apply my
moisturiser the slight pain reduces to nothing.
Honestly
these products, in the few months that I have been using them have made an
extreme difference to my skin. As I said I never really cared for my skin,
never really made time for it so basically all I would do is take off my
makeup, no cleansing, no washing and no moisturising. So to say my skin
loves me now is definitely an understatement! I can feel now when my skin
is dirty which really tells me how dirty my skin must have been because when I
wasn't using these products it just felt normal. So I am so thankful to
my friend for suggesting The Body Shop and I could not recommend their
products and their service enough. I definitely do recommend that you go
in store so that you can talk to someone who knows what they are talking about
and someone who can see for themselves what is best for your skin. I
definitely would never go back and intend to continue using these products
until my skin tells me I need something else because right now they are working
perfectly for me!
Anyways
guys, thank you so much once again for reading. Sorry again for the late
post however there is a reason for it this time and no it's not
procrastination. I won't be posting again until Late Friday possibly
Saturday and that is because I am going away for two days to visit some friends
and to watch the new Star Wars movie in Gold Class!! Yay! So stay tuned for my
next update on more than likely Saturday; and that is why I have posted on a
Wednesday (technically for me its very early Thursday morning) so that my posts
weren't too far apart, yes smart me I know!
Until
Next Time
May
the force be with you!
