136 Decisions, Decisions…

I have been really struggling with my skin lately, it is dry, it is oily, dull, lifeless, and red, with dark circles the lot. I would like to think this isn’t my fault but the reality is… my bad skin appearance is completely my fault. I have begun looking at what could be the root of my skin issue. I don’t really use any products on my skin to help it or hydrate it. The results of this are crystal clean and need changing.

I have been thinking about it for ages and want to start daily with a skincare routine. But I want to do it right and really use products that are going to help instead of just going into a shop a buying whatever is there so I haven’t found the time to sit down and look at products want to try out and experiment. When it comes to skin you want to be careful and look after it properly, once you have damaged it there is no going back, especially if it is your face. You get one lot of skin so look after it.

Long story short I am in the market for some skincare, I am going to look at what is available, I am still a student, so my budget is going to be limited, and lastly looking at what I want to achieve from each product. An example would be if you want a face cream to hydrate your skin without making it sticky, you want to look at water-based products, not oil. If you know any good products that aren’t going to cost an arm and a leg please let me know via the comments or my contacts page. Stay tuned to see what I will buy to experiment with. The only thing is you must buy them to try them out, it is unfortunate if you don’t like them but that is the case.

To feed my skincare tummy I am going to be looking in more than just the shop up the road. The shops that spring to mind straight away are Superdrug, Boots and the Body Shop. I love the Body Shop body butter so no harm in trying their other products. I do want to try Lush, John Lewis and then a few high-end brands but in time, gonna stick to the lower ends first. I may try a small higher-end bit of skin care. Let’s just see where it goes and I will keep you posted!
