Here is my little routine for when I need to relax and make my skin look half decent...
I then went in with my Decleor Phytopeel to exfoliate and get rid of all the gunk and left over makeup *nice!*
Next up was the Flavo-C cleansing and exfoliating mask. This is one I actually received as a freebie from freshers fair last year. Getting there early definitely paid off, as this is a full size mask and I love it! Its more of a heavy duty peel, but its very fun to use.
After this I used my Soap & Glory The Fab Pore Facial Peel (which ironically enough isn't a peel). This is a nice clay mask that has beads in it that break up as you massage it in. It smells really luscious and visibly minimises pores.
Finally, just before I went to bed. I moisturised with a thick layer of Origins Drink up Intensive moisture mask. This is something I have been lusting after for a while after seeing it on the likes of Anna at Vivianna Does Makeup, Lily at What I Heart Today and Lily at LLYMLRS. I love this, it literally sinks into skin overnight leaving it super soft and glowy when you wake up. No effort required.
So there you have it. An absolute monster of a 'skin sort out'.
A review on the Origins will be up soon. If you want me to go into anymore detail about any of the things I used, just let me know and Ill be happy to do so.
What are your favourite 'me time' treats?
I think my facial steamer is even older than that one :') x
ReplyDeleteThe Origins mask sounds great, it has been on my wish list for a while, I will have to get it :)

ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean by first semester of uni feeling like a year! I went all out and did a major haul after the first semester, myself. I really want to try that overnight face mask by Origins! I've heard a lot about their products!

ReplyDeleteHaving a good skincare session is always my favourite thing to pamper myself with if I'm feeling a little bit stressed.
ReplyDeleteI've been tempted by the Origins mask too but it's between that at the Dr Jart sleeping mask... hmm... x
