Oh, this is my favourite subject lately! I have recently got into Asian skincare, so am using a lot of different stuff:

DHC cleansing oil,
Hada Labo Super Hyalonic Face Foam wash,
LGH Tea Tree Essense,
COSRX AHA/BHA Toner,
Scinic Honey AIO,
Missha Time Revolution Essense AND Ampoule,
Banila CO Dear Hydration balancing moisturiser

PM take make up off using garnier aloe extract cleansing milk, hot water and flannel, then wash/exfoliate my face with Lush herbalism cleanser then a bit of bio oil and la roche posay toleriane eye cream.
AM just splash face with cold water and put on makeup (I don't use moisturiser under makeup as my skins quite oily.)

EyeDrops · 11/12/2018 18:45

I'm very low maintenance.

Garnier rose cleansing milk, followed by garnier B.B. cream in the morning.

Use the same cleansing milk in the evening and either Nivea moisturiser or a Lush serum bar.

Or, if I've a bit more time (morning or evening) - couple of times a week maybe - I use Ponds cold cream to cleanse instead and wipe off with a hot flannel. Fabulous stuff.

AM: splash of cold water, dry with a flannel, no 7 serum before breakfast. After breakfast, Nivea Q10 day cream. And a tiny bit of make up if I'm bothering.

PM: wash my face in the shower with Simple foaming cleanser. Dry and use Lidl night cream.

I've also started using the no 7 hot cloth cleanser but I'm not sure how it fits in my routine. I don't need that sort of cleanser in the morning, and at night I don't know whether to use it before or after my shower... Advice appreciated on that!

TheFairyAstronaut · 11/12/2018 23:16

AM

Dr Sam Flawless Cleanser + konjac sponge
Evolue Hydrating Serum
Altruist SPF 50

PM

Evolue Gentle Cleanser + Foreo
Then
Pixi Retinol Tonic
Mad Hippie Vit A Serum
Dr Alkaitis Elixir
Or
Alpha-H Liquid Gold

Bluesheep8 · 12/12/2018 05:54

Lambchops- you could use it whilst in the shower.i often use mine in the shower without the cloth, just rinse. Or before if you prefer.

cheeseismyspiritanimal · 12/12/2018 06:05

AM - splash of water followed by Aldi caviar day cream

PM - Aldi hot cloth cleanser followed by Pixi Glow Tonic then Aldi night cream

Pixi has been the biggest thing to make a difference to my skin - I love it!

I am fascinated by Korean skincare too! I have dry, sensitive skin and this is what I use which is working well

AM Micellar water followed by Hada Labo Premium Lotion, then Eucerin 5% Urea cream. In the summer I was also using La Roche Posay sunscreen which is v good and absorbs well.

PM Body Shop Chamomile oil cleanser, Micellar water then the Hada Labo Lotion and Eucerin again.

Hada Labo is brilliant stuff!

Looking to add a serum to my routine but there’s so many out there, I’m not sure which one to try. I’ve heard good things about snails but I’m a bit squeamish about them! 😀

LambChopsMcGee · 12/12/2018 07:34

Thanks Bluesheep, I'll give that a try

OHolyNightOwl · 12/12/2018 09:48

@Destinysdaughter
I went with the Missha Time Revolution serum as so many beauty bloggers raved about it. It contains all sorts; Niacinamide, Retinol, two vitamin C derivatives, Fermentations etc.

If this one does not work, next on my list is Leegeehaam Grow Vita.

I was also debating getting Benton Snail-Bee as it has great reviews.

Whenever I get used to all my current new products I will add Dear Klairs Freshly juiced vitamin drops as well.
