Choosing skincare mid 20s

[candycanesxo]

I posted few days ago about skincare and just wanting some more help.

How do you go about picking a brand/company there is to many. My main concerns are anti aging/ hydration/ dullness. I'm 26 so wanting get serious with my routine. So far I only use liz Earle Cleanse polish and Clinique moisture surge.

I have a budget of 300 for in January. Please help with what is good where to start? All so confusing...

You don’t need to spend £300! It’s trial and error, what works for me might not work for you.

Personally I am a big fan of cerave fash wash and moisturiser. I like to play around with different face masks but I keep the basics simple.
A facial oil is also good for keeping up hydration.

Haha Quess your right! Just kind of think we only got one go at looking after our skin may well splurge but like you said Quess I don't need to if the products work, also wondering if they all need to match and be from the same company?

Wow, do mean £300 per month on skin products? Tbh you are still caring for your skin if you spend £2 on soap. I don't think you need an expensive "routine", just eat and drink well and stay out of the sun.

The brands will tell you that you need to stick to their brand but you don’t need to. Find what works for you.
I would recommend
Oil cleanser
Cerave cleanser (use either depending on your skin needs that day)
A decent spf
Good quality moisturiser. Can’t go wrong with Nivea though!

I used to use a lot of expensive stuff. I recently switched because of wanting vegan, cruelty free skincare.

Now I’m using skincare from Superdrug (their naturally radiant range) which is a fraction of the cost of what I paid before. My skin has never looked better. Don’t be fooled into thinking more expensive means better.

Really good SPF.
A nice oil for overnight.
That's it!

SPF every single day will mean you will not NEED £300 face creams in 10 or 15 years time.
