Skincare Favorites!

Hey everyone! Over the past month I have purchased some new products to try and some of them have definitely become my new favorites and made it into my everyday skincare or make up routine. Most of these products aren't particularly new so you most likely will have heard of them before but here's a quick overview and my personal opinion on them.


The first product I have introduced into my everyday routine is the Elizabeth Arden - Eight Hour Cream. I actually have never used any products by Elizabeth Arden before however I saw this in Watt Brothers (UK) for £9.99 instead of the usual cost of £26 so really who could avoid such a bargain? This product is fantastic, once I applied this to my skin/lips I felt instant re-hydration, I actually applied this before going to bed and it was still in place by the time I woke up. If you can get your hands on this I would definitely recommend doing so.  


Lately I have been noticing my skin has been a lot drier than it usually is and my normal moisturizers unfortunately just weren't cutting it so I purchased the Benefit - Total Moisture to try it out and I was pleasantly surprised. I have tried other Benefit facial products before and I wasn't too impressed so I didn't expect much from this cream but oh my goodness it is amazing! This facial cream is very thick and heavy so it isn't something I put on during the day but I do apply a small amount before bed after taking my make up off and I wake up with softer, brighter and hydrated skin. 


This is the Mac - Fix+, I actually purchased this at the beginning of summer after seeing so many other youtuber/bloggers using it. Fix+ is titled as a finishing mist however it is something you can spray over your skin before applying your make up or you can even spray a small amount to your brushes during application, This product essentially is used to refresh your skin/make up and to give your make up a dewy look. Again, my skin has been very dry the past couple of months so this was a life saver on days where I felt my make up was sticking to certain areas of my skin so this gave a smooth refreshed finish to my look. 


The final product I have introduced into my skincare routine is the Liz Earle - Cleanse & Polish. I actually received a sample sized tube of this product a couple of months ago and I became immediately obsessed. The key ingredients to this product are Rosemary, Chamomile, Cocoa Butter and Eucalyptus Essential Oil, the smell of all of those combined is incredible I can't even describe it. I did review this before so I won't go into too much detail about it but honestly my skin has never felt cleaner or clearer. 


Have any of you found anything else helpful to de-hydrated skin? Let me know!

Thank you so much for reading!
