Current Skincare

Skincare posts are one of my favourite to read, I'm always on the lookout for new products to keep my skin healthy.

A couple of weeks ago I ran out of my regular The Sanctuary Spa Hot Cloth Cleanser so I picked up the No. 7 Melting Gel Cleanser. Having used it for about a week I quite like it, it's a nice consistency; it comes out as a gel then when in contact with your skin it becomes an oil and then washes off like a cream wash. It does take all your make up off, I like to wipe it off with a damp muslin cloth, but it can be a little irritating on the eyes so I'll probably go back to The Sanctuary one. 

I've been using the Clinique Dramatically Different moisturiser for years but since I had ran out (why do all your beauty products run out at the same time?!) and No. 7 had a 3 for 2 offer on skincare I thought I'd give the Beautiful Skin Day Cream a go. It's very smooth on the skin and sinks in right away. I find that my skin is much more hydrated using this, I'll still use my Clinique moisturiser in the warmer months as I expect this could make my skin quite oily in the summer. 

For the past month or so the weather has been particularly cold and blowing a gale which has left my skin feeling really tight and dry. I picked up the No. 7 Dry Skin Rescue Balm and I love this. It tells you to apply to dry patches but I smooth it all over my face before bed so that it sinks in overnight and I wake up to soft plumped up skin. 

Let me know in the comments is you've tried anything from the No.7 range that you think is worth trying out!
