What beauty products do you swear by?

[C1239]

Random question, but what are your favourite beauty products?!

In case it’s if any use to anyone, my experience with CT magic cream on my dry skin was extremely negative. It’s heavily scented and made my face feel raw and tight. It also didn’t act as a good base for primer + foundation.

I tried a few other products from the skincare line and just didn’t get on well with any of them. I stick to the Superdrug vitamin E and natural radiance products now and my skin is the healthiest it’s ever been.

Froq that actually helps so much, It's so tempting, but I do worry about the price

Make-up wise - L'oriel telescopic mascara is better than much more expensive mascaras.
Yes!!! But last time I was in they didn't have it:( Also Roche posay extension mascara. Oh oh oh and for anyone wo ever thought about chubby sticks, they are epic!!!

Oh and if someone ever asked me what foundation I'd buy no matter what, match perfection by Rimmel and collection concealer. Had been told were dunes for YSL but wow!!!

Dupes even!

I need a nice light moisturiser that won't cause clogged pores or spots. I can't find one that suits me. Any recommendations?

Dr Denis Gros peel pads
Oskia vit c
Jordan Samuel Skin hydrate the mist
Emma Hardie morenga balm
Nuxe lip balm
Beauty Pie Jeju am/pm moisturiser
Beauty Pie One Pore Wonder
Tretinoin
Kate Somerville spray spf for topping up
Kiehl’s spf 50

Trish McEvoy- everything she sells. It’s all wonderful, though bloody hard to get hold of sometimes.

Perhaps I shouldn’t let on!

I've been a Clarins devotee for decades. Cost me a fortune. Since lockdown I've thought oh fuck it and used Palmolive soap and baby lotion. Several people have commented recently that my skin looks amazing.

Microneedling treatments for facial scarring

Tretinoin for acne and aging

Laneige Cica moisturiser for irritated/red skin

Drunk Elephant Protoni moisturiser for everyday

Olaplex for bleached/lightened hair

Olaplex does nothing for me. Bleached and dry.

Watching

So the Lagom SPF50 face sun cream came and so far so good!! Feels very moisturising and sinks into skin quickly. Great under makeup and almost acts like a primer for it. Still need to see if it breaks me out at all.

It does say on it to reapply every 2 hours which I won't be doing (that would cost a fortune for a start!). Does anyone actually reapply their face SPF throughout the day when it's not particularly hot, winter etc?

Love the urban Veda range- very good with sensitive skin
Holland and Barrett vitamin A serum
Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
No.7 clay cleanser
Body Shop Drops of Youth essence

Eyeshadows, mascaras and lipsticks I have a range of and don't see much difference in quality as long as I'm using good brushes.

Olay Pro Vital Day and Night creams - but I think they've been discontinued, finding them increasingly hard to get.

Inkey list Bakuchiol (alternative to retinol)
Waitrose pure micellar water.
Both quite reasonably priced.

REN perfect canvas primer. Quite expensive but worth it.

Also Altruist sunscreen- so cheap! Recommended by Sali Hughes I think.

Hydrolonic acid (japan)
Cactus Oil
Nivea lip balm in the cherry colour

CeraVe face wash and moisturiser (I use the pump bottle one on my face and it's fab).

HG has to be the Ren spf. Can't recommend enough if you're oily. The only spf that has never made me greasy or spotty, and controls my oily t-zone. Light dusting of powder over the top and it lasts all day.

La Roche posay effaclar H - the full range - keeps my acne away!
La Roche posay hydraulonic acid serum
Obagi vitamin c serum
Elizabeth Arden retinol capsules
Filorga eye cream

Thank you for the suggestion. I've seen this mentioned a few time so I think I'll have to try it out!
