Hey guys,
So as part of the whole "New Year New Me" malarkey that I've been striving to commit to, and as I don't currently use make-up I've decided to invest in some facial products to help keep my skin smooth.
(This is only my personal experience with these products, I am fully aware that different people have different skin types and therefore may have a range of experiences when using facial products).
I'm pretty sure that you can purchase all of these items from any Boots worldwide
Item #1
This removes excess oil, dirt and dead skin cells |
Clean & Clear exfoliating daily wash
I usually use this daily wash first, only because I think it's the harshest due to the micro beads and the way they feel on my skin when I use the wash. I would say be very cautious when using this product although I'm not sure whether my experience had anything to do with the facial wash or not, but when I first began using this product I began to break out more than I had prior to using it. That being said, I would strongly advise that if you are acne prone or have sensitive skin, you stay away from this product as it has proven to be quite harsh on the skin.
The thing that I love about this product -and all the products in my facial routine- is that they are not only effective, but also reasonably affordable so when I run out I can quickly replace them without leaving a dent in my pocket.
Item #2
This Simple Moisturising Facial Wash is my current favourite and the second in my daily morning routine as (and this is just my opinion) I feel like its a good balance for the skin after using the harsh Clean and clear wash. I find it also balances out the scents that may remain on my face after using first wash, adding a more gentle aroma.
The wash feels really smooth and soft when in contact with my face, removing all sweat and dirt that may remain after having used my first wash. I've had really good experience with this wash as it works effectively without drying out my skin or caused random breakouts.

The product supposedly works best when massaged into a small lather, then applied onto wet skin before being thoroughly rinsed off.
Item #3
£1.50 |
I use this Boots Brand facial wash last in my routine, for no particular reason. At this point, it is not necessary to use another facial wash, but the cucumber in general is beneficial for the skin, so I thought I may as well try this product out.
Okay so there are many different reasons why I purchased this item. The first is whilst I was partaking in work experience at Boots, many customers requested this product and so Ii became curious. The second reason is that Boots were doing a deal in which you could choose three facial items for £3 -so giving in to my inner self- I couldn't resist the bargain.
The third reason why I am experimenting with this wash is that it does not contain any alcohol. I personally have nothing against facial products which contain alcohol, but my sister did mention that alcohol-free products may be healthier for the skin, so I thought I'd try t his out and see the effects it has on my skin.
This Boots Cucumber Facial removes excess oils from the face, leaving my skin feeling refreshed after use. When applied, I would say this is the smoothest out of the three washes on the skin, leaving my face feeling soft and smooth. The application process is very similar to that of the Clean & Clear and the Simple wash.
Item #4
The Cucumber Cleansing lotion has got to be my least favourite and the final in my facial routine. I no longer use this as often as I used to -perhaps three times a week.
I would suggest that people who have dryer skin use this product as it provides -from my experience- more moisture than the previously mentioned products. When used, I tend to apply this cleansing lotion last as I generally wipe it off instead of rinsing it off so I can avoid getting my face wet again.
p.s. I really need to find a good surface to start taking pictures on
Anyway, I've got another quote for you all,
