What are everyone's staple products that they will always repurchase and never switch? Skin care, hair care, body care, makeup etc?
Also could you tell us your skin type etc so it could maybe help someone with same issues :)

  • 8 hour cream (I often try alternatives, but always come back to it).
  • Elnett flexible hairspray
  • house of colour lipstick and blusher in my colours

-Ren youth vitality day moisturiser
  • pitrok deodorant
  • Emma Hardie cleansing balm


Have only recently discovered but will definitely repurchase:
  • shiseido full lash volume mascara
  • NIOD copper amino stuff (anti ageing magic drops, IMO)
  • Aurelia hand cream
  • NIOD non acid stuff (second lot of anti ageing magic drops)
  • hand chemistry retinoil

Oh, and I have combination skin, break out with heavy products or, conversely, not enough moisturiser. My skin is fairly well behaved in general though.

Chanel Inimitable Intense Black Mascara. Have tried others but always come back to this.
Avene Anti-Rougers day moisturiser. I use the cream in the winter and the emulsion in the summer. I've got sensitive skin and rosacea and although it's supposed to reduce the redness I don't think it does but it doesn't make my face flare up so stops redness that way I suppose.
Garnier 7 day Cocoa Hand Cream. Love it, soaks in no greasiness and sorts out my dry hand. Also like Aveeno hand cream but the Garnier one is cheaper.
Rimmel pressed powder
Rainbow Rooms Glossette Spray (a bit niche that one, it's made by my hairdressers)
Mitchum Cream Stick Deo
Have recently bought Aldi Lacura Expert Eye Gel which is the best eye gel I've ever bought so will buy that again. I also like the Lacura Expert Serum.

There is probably more but that's all I can think of at the mo!

Emma Hardie cleansing balm- improved my greasy/combination/spot prone skin no end.

Chanel waterproof volume mascara- just can not beat it!

Decleor night balm( can't remember which one which is a bit pointless)...

Also currently loving the Aldi day cream which I must be about 5 years behind on at least , so far so good!

Clinique Take The Day Off cleansing balm - the best for oily, spot-prone skin
Pixi Glow Tonic - not sure this actually does a lot but I love the smell and routine of using it
Toni & Guy Wave Memoriser - AMAZING for adding texture to my poker-straight hair
Neutrogena Intensive hand cream

Kerastase Bain Satin shampoo and Nectar Thermique conditioner.

Nivea alcohol-free roll on anti-perspirant.

Johnson's Baby Oil for removing make-up, and shaving legs and armpits.

Johnson's Baby Top to Toe wash - as a secondary facial cleanser and as shower gel.

Tampax and Bodyform sanitary towels (because unlike Always they don't smell of Glade air freshener. I used Always for years, what a way to alienate loyal customers).

I'm dissatisfied with so much stuff right now. I think it is my body and face turning 40...

Peter Thomas Roth lip stuff (can't remember the exact name): the difference it has made to crinkly middle aged lips has been phenomenal.
Zelens 3t moisuriser: makes my skin shine (in a good way)
Otherwise I'm always open to suggestions!
