Skin care 2022✨

You guys! I cannot put into words how much i’m in Love with, “The Glow Recipe” products. Their formulas are gentle yet effective. They’re AMAAA-ZING! I regret not knowing about this brand in the past. They literally have fruit extracts in their products and they’re clinically proven. I have no guilt of whatsoever on spending my pocket money on their products. IT LEFT MY SKIN PLUMPED UP AND GLOWY! And the glow was just so beautiful and came right from within.

Also i’ve said this earlier as well, Your makeup only looks good if your skin is good. My skin is sensitive to new products. And Glow recipe was the thing which went on so well for my skin. I would definitely recommend it to anyone with sensitive skin and someone who doesn’t mind going an extra mile for their skin care routine.

The first step is that I use a good cleanser ( I currently am using the one from neutrogena one)

This face wash does not over dry my face at all nor does it feel like my skin is getting stretched even though it contains Salicylic Acid. I got mine from a shop (Naheed) in Karachi, so if you live in Pakistan you can get it from there or Alfatah.

The second step is to apply/spray on a good toner or rose water. I don’t mind using local brands like Saeed Ghani & Marhaba rose water or you can use Thayers/Mario Badescu. Just a quick reminder you should store your rose water spray/bottle in the refrigerator to give a super cool feeling.

Next we move on to the serum step, when my face is half dry I just add a pump or a bit more of my favourite Glow recipe Niacinamide serum;

Words would not be enough to describe how much I love this serum and how amazing it feels on my skin. It has Watermelon extract, Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid. This serum goes well with all skin types so this is pretty much a safe investment.

Moving on, I let this amazing serum to settle in and absorb completely on my skin and then I apply any of my two favourite Glow Recipe moisturiser;

I use them on alternate times(depending on my mood) I’ll use one in the morning after a cleanser, toner and serum and before my sunblock. For my night time routine I just follow all the steps and just don’t put on a sunblock. These two are the safest moisturiser investments. They’re hydrating and give your skin a plumped up glow. And always remember to never ever neglect your neck area while taking care of your face.

The last step is sunblock (after my morning routine). I personally love Neutrogena Products because they’re easily accessible in my country. I am currently using this sunblock;

I would never advice anyone to buy any high-end skin care products or makeup from local department stores in Pakistan (no matter how huge they may be).Temperature control is everything! You can invest on Neutrogena and Loreal since these are drug store products. At times certain products need to be kept in cool temperatures or else they will do more damage than good. Try ordering your products from trusted pages (there are many operating these days) instead. It’s safe to get locally manufactured products instead of that. I once ordered The Ordinary Hyaluronic Serum from a local shop (wont name it) but my skin started breaking out after using that product. I never had this issue in the past so it just got on my nerves, this explains my choice of my face cleanser/wash. I had previously used this serum bought from somewhere else and it went well on my skin; but this particular shop had no temperature control nothing! Glow recipe literally rescued my skin, THANK GOD.

In the end i’d like to tell you always apply sunblock with an SPF 50+ even if you don’t plan on going out it does wonders to your skin!

Have an Amazing day!✨❤️

My Favorite Body Shop Products

Hey Guys,

I hope you all are having an amazing day. So today I’ll be telling you guys about my favorite Body Shop Products. The Body shop is a British cosmetic and skin care company. I have a combination skin which is a bit sensitive too. So my skin tends to get dry in winters like everyone else and it gets a bit oily on the t-zone during summers.

I absolutely love the Tea Tree Range. It works wonders for people with acne or acne prone skin. It’s really good for combination skin and it does not over dry your face. And it helps clearing out blemishes. I’ve personally used 3 products from this range.

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Clay Mask – $17

Body Shop

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash – $14

Body Shop 1

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Foaming Cleanse – $15Body Shop 2Final verdict: If you have an acne prone, blemished skin which also tends to get oily this range and these face wash will help you fight your skin problems. This entire range is for people with blemished skin and acne prone skin. They also have cooling properties.

My next favorite range is the Vitamin E. This range is again for people with sensitive and dry skin. As my skin gets super dry during the winters I switch to the Vitamin E range. My 2 favorite Vitamin E products are:

Vitamin E Gentle Facial Wash – $6

Body Shop 3

Vitamin E Eye Cream – $19.50

body shop 5

Final Verdict: I would definitely recommend the vitamin E range to anyone who has a dry to sensitive skin. This face wash has non drying properties. I recently started doing a lot of eye makeup and the area around my eyes has gotten really dry. So I started using this Vitamin E eye Cream and it has helped a lot in fighting the dryness.

This next range has an amazing fragrance. I’m talking about the Strawberry range. I absolutely love strawberries and any moisturizer with its fragrance is just so cute. I tried two products from this range and I would recommend it to everyone, since it’s just too good.

Strawberry Hand Cream – $6

body shop 6

Strawberry Lip Butter – $7

body shop 7

Final Verdict: We need hand and lip moisturizer throughout the year, be in summers or winters. Hence this is the most safest investment you can make. And they have an AAA-MAZING scent. Would definitely recommend both of these products.

Stay tuned for more!♥
