Skincare Favourites

Hello Everyone!

This is my very first blog post for bellaboo beauty, so here goes!

Here are a few of my favourite skincare products which I have found to be really beneficial and work well for my skin! They are the basics that I pretty much use every day and I would definitely recommend to anyone with combination or sensitive skin!



1. Nude Anti-Oxidant Foaming Cleanser: I've found this cleanser to be really gentle and soft on your skin, perfect for every day use. Its great for preventing skin blemishes and apparently assists in anti-ageing (not that that's too important to me as I am pretty young!). It has oat kernel extract and citric acid, and it smells pretty fruity and refreshing! Its 100% natural, and good for sensitive skin because it also hydrates your skin as you cleanse.

2. Avene Light Hydrating Cream: I absolutely love this hydrating cream. It is 'light' so it isn't too heavy, it is like a watered-down milk cream to moisturise your skin after cleansing. I always wake up in the morning, after sleeping with it on, feeling refreshed and my skin feels really smooth and nice!

3. Avene Thermal Spring Water: This can be applied as a toner after cleansing, and I use it every day. It is odourless, but is really refreshing and luckily for me comes in a tiny travel bottle which is good to shove in your handbag and use to refresh your face on hot days! It is soothing and you can spray it on red or damaged skin to rehydrate. I really love this brand!

4. Burt's Bees Hand Balm: This one smells really nice, it has a lavender scent, and it works to really moisturise dry hands. The only downside is the slightly impractical container which makes the 'balm' difficult to get out and apply. Nonetheless, a great product which I really love.

5. Burt's Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream: This is also from Burt's Bees and its handy because you can carry it around in your bag. I normally wouldn't be bothered to 'moisturise my cuticles' but if your waiting for the train or watching tv its really easy to get some on your fingers and spread it to your cuticles. It smells really citrusy and it applies onto your cuticles really easily, moisturising and softening them. Who doesn't need that?

6. L'Occitane Beauty Milk: This product smells really really nice (like roses) and its in a cute little bottle, which is half the reason I bought it initially! It is enriched with grape seed oil and shea butter which is amazing for moisturising your face.

7. Perry's Lemon Myrtle Oil Body Lotion: I love this lotion so much, it smells like lemon myrtle oil and it applies really well all over the body. I bought it from a country market originally and I have been going back to buy more but I think you can purchase this one online.

There you go, my go-to skin care favourites! I hope you enjoy and feel free to post any comments or questions, I would love to hear from you!
