For me it was 11. Same as every work day.

Hyaluronic acid (whilst face still damp)
The Ordinary Buffet
Eye cream (éclat from Amazon-new this week)
Heliocare 360 spf 50
Concealer
No7 Hydraluminous foundation
Teeny bit of bronzer (no7)
Teeny bit of blusher (one from Superdrug)
Maybelline eyebrow pen thing
Mascara (random 3D one from Amazon that I love actually)
Bit of lip gloss (Rimmel)

@Meggymoo777

So we've all been posting our morning products... how about that evening???

Here's mine:
Absolute Hot Cloth Cleaning Oil (Kinvara)
AHA Peeling Solution (The Ordinary)
Retinol Tonic (PIXI)
Hyaluronic Acid (The Ordinary)
Rosehip Serum (Kinvara)
A touch of Astral (because I'm retro! 🤣)
Carmex Lip Balm

I used 2 of those in my 12 this morning so I'm up to 17 today

Just cleansing balm here! My night moisturiser was bothering my skin, so I'm forgoing it to see how I go.

JaceLancs · 27/04/2021 23:19

Nothing - I either have a bath or shower and wash face as part of this using normal soap - at the moment Bronnley lemon as was a Xmas gift - that’s it
I’m 57 and lucky enough not to have wrinkles etc
Occasionally in winter if my skin feels a bit dry I use e45 cream
In summer I use a tinted moisturiser with spf eg olay
I’ve always avoided the sun on head area as it gives me a headache which has probably helped - gave up smoking over 20 years ago and don’t drink too much! I’m told I look younger than I am but much is down to genetics - DM is past 80 with very few wrinkles but is very jowly and I know I need to control my weight as I age

WhoEatsPopTarts · 28/04/2021 01:11

UntilYourNextHairBrainedScheme · 28/04/2021 07:46

Water in the shower
Lip balm

I didn't used to need lip balm until my 40s, but my lips get really dry now.

Having experimented recently my skin is 100% definitely vastly better when I leave it well alone apart from the lip balm though!

Cocopogo · 28/04/2021 07:50

I realised I need to wash my face more reading all these Blush

Didn’t have a wash
Pixie toner
Venn all in one
Concealer under eyes

HelloDulling · 28/04/2021 07:50

Bvop · 28/04/2021 07:54

Water and lip balm

doadeer · 28/04/2021 08:58

If I used soap or just water my face would be so tight and dry it would be horrendous. I remember as a child I got a dry forehead and around my nose and I was so embarrassed at school I tried to rub it away with water which made it 10x worse! My face does not like to get wet 🤣

CorianderBee · 28/04/2021 09:03

Moisturiser
Cleanser
Sunscreen

I'm WFH

limesoda · 28/04/2021 09:43

Dermalogica ultracalming cleanser and a muslin in the shower
Ultracalming toner
Gel moisturiser

Then:

Glossier SPF
Anti redness primer that was a sample
Erborian BB cream
Glossier concealer
Tiny bit of blush
Mascara
Brow tamer (I think its benefit)
Lipstick (Lisa Elridge velvet blush)

I WFH not on zoom and I love putting a bit of effort into how I look in the morning. I don't make much more effort for a night out TBH, maybe some eyeliner and a red lipstick, but I can just as easily do red lipstick to walk the dog.

NoSiree · 28/04/2021 09:52
