Waking up in the
morning is a struggle; the warm cosy bed is a lot more attractive than having
to put effort in and getting ready. The only thing for me that makes it a
little less daunting is that when I jump in the shower, I have an array of
products waiting for me! That will make me feel more awake and smell amazing.
SKINCARE
The bulk of my
skincare routine happens in the shower due to it being more convenient and seeing
as though the rest of me is getting a good clean, why not tackle my face as
well? On an everyday basis I use the MagnitoneLucid Brush with the Bliss
Makeup Melt (£24), together they remove any makeup from the day before and
thoroughly clean my face leaving it oil and dirt free for the day ahead. My
skin is far too sensitive for a scrub every day; therefore I use
the Garnier Pure Active(£2.65) only once a week. The scrub has an amazing
cucumber scent and feels all tingly on the skin.
BODY
After my face has
been completely cleaned it’s time to move onto the body – the part that makes
you feel and smell beautiful! In the summer I love using products that smell
fruity and are quite overpowering because then you can guarantee the smell will
last. All over my body I use the Soap
& Glory Sugar Crush body wash (£6.50) which smells divine! The zesty
scent really wakes you up in the morning and it makes the bathroom smell great
too, the entire Sugar Crush range is well worth the splurge! Every other day I
use a scrub on my arms and legs to help keep my stubborn, ingrown hairs away –
my all-time favourite is TBS Raspberry. It also seems like it’s been
discontinued which breaks my heart. The last area I focus on in the shower is
the more intimate one, it is just as important to look after that area as it is
the rest of your body. For this I like to use the femfresh Daily IntimateWash (£2.99/250ml). What is femfresh? First off, it has a low pH which
helps to keep the area down there calm and with it having no soap and a light
scent it doesn’t irritate. The hint of Aloe Vera gives the wash soothing and
calming properties, and anything with Aloe in I am drawn towards!
AFTER SHOWER AND STAYING FRESH
Part of my everyday
shower routine includes products that I use afterwards that help me to smell
amazing and feel fresh all day. It starts with a double dosage of body
moisturiser, two seems unnecessary but it works wonders! First up is for the
dry patches on my skin and for this I love the Garnier
Intensive 7 Days (£2.45) - it restores my skin and leaves it feeling silky
and soft. Then I like to use another moisturiser that smells a little better
and any from Victoria’s Secret is fine for me. They smell gorgeous and the
scent stays on longer than perfume does which is surprising and when night
comes a hint of glitter appears too! (£9.30).
During the day I love
using a mist to cool me down, especially in the hot weather whilst I’m at work
my body tends to heat up and a mist is the only thing that works. I grabbed
this one from the Poundshop but they are now readily available in supermarkets!
The other thing I use is Freshening and SoothingCloths from femfresh (£3.49), like the wash they contain a pH balanced
formula that cleanses, freshens and soothes your skin. I love taking these to
work with me on longer days as by the time 2 o’clock comes around I feel all
sticky. These refresh me and make me feel less conscious of smelling horrible
along with a spritz of deodorant of course!
All of these products help me to stay fresh all day and work well together like a magical recipe to keep me fresh and clean!
