Fran's Skin Care Routine

Hey guys and welcome back to our blog! Last week Sher shared with you her skin care routine and today I thought I would share mine with you guys so you can get an idea of both of our regimens. I'm going to be telling what products I use and how I use them, in which order, as well as what the importance of each product is. I've been thinking of trying some new products soon as well, probably for weekly use, so if I do purchase them you will definitely be seeing a review soon. Nonetheless, let's get straight into my daily skin care routine.

The first thing I want to mention is make-up remover because it is essential if you do wear make-up. It is important to have make-up remover wipes or some kind of other product whether you wear make-up daily or occasionally. At the moment I've been using the Simple Kind To Eyes Eye Make-Up Remover because it is very gentle on the skin and removes waterproof make-up too.

Then I move on to a cleanser. This will help to remove any remaining make-up from your skin. I realize, especially when using wipes that even after using a number of them I still feel like I could keep using more and there would be make-up left on them. It's like the make-up never goes away completely. A cleanser helps to lift off anything that's left. I only use this product at night, as I do not find it necessary in the mornings. The one that I use is the Simple Kind To Skin Purifying Cleansing Lotion.
I like to apply this product using my electric face brush which I got a few months back. It was very inexpensive and I find it to be very effective. I feel like it helps the skin absorb the product more than when you use your fingers. It comes with various types of brushes and with my cleanser I generally use the sponge.

Face wash is next and once again I like to use a product from the Simple range; the Kind To Skin Refreshing Facial Wash Gel. In my hands, I work a small amount into a lather and apply it to my face. In the mornings I will usually use my hands or a sponge and in the evenings I use my electric face brush once again, this time using the brush with bristles on it.

Before I moisturize my face, I use a toner for smoother skin as well as to tighten pores. The one I've been loving is the Simple Soothing Facial Toner. Apply generously to cotton wool and wipe in gentle upward motions on the skin, both day and night.

Once a week or so I use a facial scrub to exfoliate my skin. An exfoliator removes any dead skin cells, clears your pores and leaves your face feeling super soft and looking more bright. I've been using the St.Ives Apricot Scrub for years now and I swear by it.

Every now and then treat yourself to using a face mask to keep your skin hydrated and feeling fresh. Both sheet face masks and cream versions are good. At the moment I've been using the Simple Deep Cleansing Face Mask.

The last thing that I will be mentioning is the E.L.F Cosmetics Zit Zapper Acne Treatment. When I do have a zit I apply some of this directly after I've finished my skin care regimen, before I go to bed. By the day after it is usually quite reduced.

And that is it for my skin care routine. I know it is quite lengthy, but I do have to say that I have found this method to work really well on my skin and there has definitely been a difference. Do you guys use any of the products mentioned? If so let me know in the comments below. And if you have any products that you use, I would love to give them a go! Thank you so much for staying till the end and I'll talk to you next time!

Xoxo, Fran
