Clinique Facial Soap

Summer has officially ended in England *looks sadly out the window*, yet i still want my skin to glow!

This facial soap was basically a impulse purchase ( I mean what don't I buy on an impulse?) for £11.50,and I have come to believe that if you keep your skincare routine simple and not too fussy your skin will find its natural glow.

I use this morning and night, at night when I take my makeup off. I love it. I am not a regular user of Clinique but I have great things about the brand.

This my friends, is da bomb. Seriously I mean not many people think of using something so simple, I barely see any soaps in skincare routines, there needs to be more.

This has most definitely found a firm place in my beauty drawer.

Liz Earle Sheer Tint

Today i am going to review the Liz Earle sheer tinted moisturiser!

In the summer or whenever its hot i feel like foundation is way too heavy for my skin and i want something lighter. So i opt for a tinted moisturiser with a fair amount of coverage, some lucky ladies don't have to wear anything because they have perfect skin, where as i have small spots here and there.

I have found this tinted moisturiser to be very good on my skin, it doesn't make me feel to oily as it dries and sinks in very easily! It has not caused any breakouts and really given me the summer glow which we all want (with a bit of bronzer).

Also i wanted some sun protection as well, this has SPF15 as do most, but depending how hot it is i will either reapply this or regular sunscreen.

The packaging feels expensive, as it is in one of those 40ml bottles which makes you use a minuscule amount, which is good as a little goes a long way!

The only real let down is the price- £21, if you live in England some sun is an occasion to be remembered as it doesn't stay for long. If you only use this in the summer, like myself you will really need to only buy this once a year, but if you wear this as your 'base' all year round it would be alot of money.

So i am going to give this 4* out of 5, as the let down is the price!

Clear Skin #3: Witch Blemish Stick

This is the 3rd post in my clear skin series, and I have a blemish stick for you!

This is the Witch Blemish Stick found at Boots and any other drug stores. 

This works wonders on oily combination skin especially. It reminds me a bit of a glue stick in the way it applies, you push this 'waxy' stick out and rub it on the break out area.

This is probably one of the few products which I repurchase often, as a side note it does not run out quickly either which makes it worth the money.

I cannot remember the price of this item off the top of my head but I assure you it is not that expensive or I would not have bought it. I am a strong believer that the cheaper, the better.

Clear Skin #2: Pro Active Cleanse Bar

Welcome back to my journey to Clear Skin day 2!
Today i have a soap bar?! Yes, a soap bar.
It is the Pro Active Cleansing Exfoliating bar- £14.99

As you can see it is for Acne prone skin, however my skin is not prone to acne it can get rather spotty! When you have lathered it up small bits appear which gives it the 'cleansing feel'. Although it has bits in it, it does not feel harsh on your face. Which is a great point about this.
It is on the expensive side of face products but believe me it works, i had reduced redness in my face and did not look like a tomato.
Overall if you are prone to lots of spots anywhere on your body and face i recommend using this everyday. It will reduce your acne/spots if you pair it with a good spot cream (hint what is coming next)

Clear Skin #1: Boots Foaming Face Wash

So lately i have been tackling with spotty skin, so i thought i would start a series in which i can write reviews about the products i have tested. Everyone has those small annoying breakouts, whether its 'the time of the month' or just because your a teenager like myself.

So the first product in this series is the Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel face foaming wash, which was £3.59. So generally quite a cheap product for a 150ml bottle.

I am very pleased with this product, as it is very gentle on my skin. No one wants a face wash that makes your face sore! It cleaned my face, getting off those bits of makeup i was too lazy to do myself. It reduced my breakout a lot by the next morning, so my face wasn't a huge mess.

I have to add the whole foam thing is rather fun! 

It is an easy lather and foams up beautifully!

I can definitely say a 5/5 for me from my clear skin series.
