Little long awaited but the time has finally come! My Favourite hair/beauty products of 2011.
Products that I have used throughout or most of the year general body, hair and skin.
Cleansers - Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish I love how it feels on the skin, it gives your skin a thorough cleanse and gently ex foliates, the smell is quite relaxing with Almond oil, Rosemary, Chamomile and Eucalyptus essential oil. For quicker use of getting make-up off I tend to reach for Simple cleansing wipes, they do a good job of removing make up even waterproof mascara while not irritating the skin.
Toners - My favorite toner of all year i have used constantly would have to be Simple soothing facial toner removes all remaining traces of make-up from the face leaving it free for you to moisture! there is no prominent smell to it and it is enriched with vitamins and skin loving nutrients. And also no unnecessary or harsh chemical used in the product so it wont upset your skin. Dermalogica multi-active toner after cleaning just sprites over face and simple as that it is done! feels refreshing just before you apply the moisture.
Moisturisers - I love love love Oilatum for eczema, itchy irritating dry skin conditions but I just uses it whenever or wherever I have dry skin on face or body. Really moisturising and handy for anything. Simple light moisturiser, incredibly light barely feel able once on skin can use on its own or under make up.Soap and Glory - The Righteous Butter, Thick creamy moisturiser leaves your body feeling hydrated throughout the day with a gorgeous floral scent.
Exfoliator - St. Ives Apricot Scrub Exfoliates dull surface cells to instantly reveal smooth radiant skin. leaves my skin feeling smooth and exfoliated a nice surface to put moisture on. Soap and Glory Breakfast Scrub - its like a paste substance which has oat in which gently exfoliates the body and also Shea Butter and Sugar Body Smoother. It smell delicious! bananas, almond & honey extracts. YUM.
Masks - When I feel my face need abit of recovery say from cold weather I use Dermalogica multivitamin power recovery masque, packed with concentrated vitamins A,C,E and F it helps the skin recover from damage that leads to skin aging while enhancing barrier. The mask I use twice a week is the Superdrug Cucumber cooling face mask when I feel my skin is abit of a pickle and needs a pick me up i pop this on for 10 and it feels instantly refreshed.
Hair Products - Coconut & Almond Hair Mask discovered from a friend at college when I bleach my hair to blonde. My hair was very badly damaged she recommend this, I used it constantly nearly every other day and some days when not at college put it on my hair all day it did amazing things for my hair! and for only £2.03. LOVE. got 2 be heat protector I have used this for the last year and abit it has been the best I have ever used!. Mythic Oil I got this out of a Glossybox and pop it on the ends of my hair whenever I feel it needs the added moisture which is most days with the amount I mess with my hair. A little of this goes a long why!.
