What three skincare products couldn’t you live without?

[Tinks15]

...interested to see what people love. I can never seem to find the right product for my skin. I’ve spent a fortune over the years.

-Glycolic acid toner - I use The Ordinary
-Hada Labo Premium Hyaluronic Acid - it must be used on damp skin (I have a rose water spray thing but I think bog standard water is fine) and then locked in with a little bit of moisturiser on top. Otherwise it does fuck all.
-SPF - I use Boots Soltan

Clarins blue orchid oil
Body shop vitamin E night cream
Divine cream

The Facialist Rose cleansing balm
The Ordinary Hyaluronic acid serum
Lacuna (from Aldi) day cream for dry skin

I think I might try the Hada Hyaluronic acid on that recommendation.

Dermatica tretinoin and hydroquinone
Skinceuticals CE Ferulic
Kiehls midnight recovery serum.

Kiehls Calendula cleansing face wash
Kiehls skin rescuer
Any Elizabeth Arden lip salve
+
Smash box primer

Deviant cleansing concentrate
Skin and me retinol
Superdrug pure hydrating serum

O'Keeffe's hand cream
O'Keeffe's Lip Balm
La Rochay Possay Efficlair duo +
Vichy Thermal 3 in 1 cleanser
Garnier oil free BB cream.

I have weird menopausal skin, sometimes oily sometimes dry, these things are my go to's.

Aveeno Colloidal Oats Cream. A staple in our household.

Clinique CityBlock spf40... the only spf that doesn’t leave a white cast on me.
My Rio 60 Second Face Lift. Has given me my cheeks back.

Garnier face wash, Nivea and Aveeno. Tried loads and spent a fortune over the many many years. These are the only ones that get replaced everytime. I don't even bother looking at anything else anymore.

No7 protect and perfect serum.

Astral cream.

It’s all I use, don’t need anything else. Regularly get compliments on my skin. Well, I did before we had to cover our faces with masks.

Simple protecting moisturiser, superdrug 10% vit C serum, aldi night cream

If we're just having 3 items, I'll have to multitast, although I'm pretty basic when it comes to my skin.

Dr Bronner Castile Soap
Simple Protect n Glow factor 30 moisturiser
Vitamin E or Blistex lipcream, but I'll probably go for vitamin E as it has more uses.

Lancôme Miel en Mousse cleanser, love the feel and smell.

Boots No7 Protect and Perfect day moisturiser- used this for years, flirt with other moisturisers but keep coming back to this.

Vaseline intensive care had cream- sinks in quickly & does the job.

Thanks everyone, it’s interesting to see the things that everyone likes.

I need to be a bit more budget friendly atm so I’m trying to find products that will work but won’t cost the earth. I’ve noticed a few people have said ‘The Ordinary’ & heard mixed reviews on their stuff. I’ve used a couple of bits of theirs in the past but didn’t use it for a long period of time so couldn’t really tell if I liked it.
To the people that are using it currently. Do you rate it? Has it improved your skin etc? Did you look into which of their products would suit you, as they do so much!

• Hada labo hyaluronic acid (or Dr Sebagh serum repair)

-Dr Jart ceramidin liquid

• Origins Clean Energy Cleansing oil (been using it for years).

I think after trying a sample, my new holy grail is going to be Elizabeth Arden hyaluronic acid capsules...it's like an Angel has spat on my face when I use it, shame they are so expensive.

Repeat guys for me:

Cerave PM
Hada Labo HA serum
Eucerin SPF, various

Oh God, I want to look as if an angel’s spat on my face! I’m sold.

Sunday Riley Good Genes
Drunk Elephant Sunshine Drops
Fresh Rose Sleep mask

@VinylDetective I didn't say I look like Angel has spat on my face (I wish) but it certainly feels like it. Skin feels (and looks) so hydrated after using the capsules for a few days.

Avene cicalfate repair cream
Jojoba oil
Dermatica Tretinoin

UFO masks
Nivea face scrub
Nuxe nourishing oil

The ordinary hyaluronic acid
Calypso 8 hr sunblock
Palmers aha body lotion mixed with equal parts dove daily tan and used all over, face included.

Nelsons calendula cream
DermaV10 Rescue Oil
DDF enhancing sun protection SPF30

Skin and Me
A cleansing balm (currently Alpha H)
Eucerin Gel SPF

Overhyped imo.
