Simple Kind to Skin Protecting Light Moisturiser

Since becoming a beauty blogger I have started to give skincare a bit more attention, and I am always on the lookout for a good facial moisturiser. Let's welcome Simple to the party.

Morny Lily of the Valley Body Moisturiser

I love Lily of the Valley, it is my favourite flower so when I spotted this moisturiser for £1 I couldn't say no. I've recently found this in Savers for the same price but this was also found in the local £ shop.

The scent of it is gorgeous, the scent is also quite strong but it lasts on the skin for hours. The formula of the moisturiser is one I am not used to as it is very liquidy (I'm a Body Shop body butter snob, which are a lot thicker then this one).

I did like this moisturiser it did melt into the skin quite easily and you didn't really need a lot of product to really moisturise your skin. One thing that I did notice is that it is blooming cold when putting it onto the skin.

I would repurchase this moisturiser again (but at the moment I have a backlog of body moisturisers that I need to use).

BLOGMAS 10: My Morning Skincare Routine

On a morning my skincare routine is quite a quick one.

1) Micellar Water
This is just to clean my face and get rid of all the muck that may have ended up on my face through the night. I have been using L'Oreal's Purifying Micellar Solution, it also leaves a clean palette to put my mosituriser on.

2) Moisturiser
I use Garnier's Moisture Match for combination to oily skin, as I said I don't like to put too much moisturiser onto my skin, with this I only need a tiny bit.

3) Lip Scrub
I am currently using Lush's Mint Juleps lip scrub, and it smells fantastic. Once you have finished using it you can just lick it off but I use water (when you think about it, it's dead skin from your lips that your licking off, and licking your lips doesn't help them too much)

4) Lip Balm
I use Maybeline Baby Lips in Intense Care, this just helps to add some moisture back into my lips.

As you can see only four steps here (not that excessive) I don't like to overload my skin with a lot of moisturising products due to the fact that my skin is combination so it can get oily and then lead to breakouts.

What do you use in the morning?

Garnier Moisture Match (Shine be Gone)

DISCLAIMER: All opinions are my own and product was bought with my own money.

Moisturising is a massive thing and my face needs it big time but my skin is prone to breakouts and I have very dry skin, so to find a moisturiser for me that won't leave me with spots all over my face is a problem.

While in the local supermarket I found Garnier Moisture Match 24H Hydration mattifying fresh cream, this also comes in different products for different skin types. I chose the 'Shine Be Gone' option as it is for combination to oily skin.

Garnier Moisture Match

I managed to pick this up on offer for £4.99 and trialed this for a week to see how my skin handled the product.

Actual tube containing the product.

The tube is 50mls and you only need a small amount to put on your face, as I said I was quite dubious about this as I feared a breakout on my skin, but but using a small amount it left my skin feeling refreshed. It also kept away the dry skin that does accumulate on my face and kept it moisturised

Small amount on the hand

Overall Thoughts.

The product was really good and I will certainly add this to my everyday skincare regime.
