REMOVE ALL YOUR MAKEUP, ALWAYS. NO EXCEPTIONS.
I use the Clinique take the day off cleansing balm.
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT. It works SOOO well, I was afraid it was going to be very greasy but it leaves my skin soft and clean (and not oily).
You just take a tiny bit of product and rub it on your eyes for about 30 seconds and then on your face and it literally MELTS your makeup and it has no perfume so it is perfect for sensitive skin!

WASH YOUR FACE
I use the Simple kind to skin moisturising facial wash.
It is great for dry and sensitive skin (it has vitamins, nourishing ingredients, NO perfume and NO colours)

USE A GENTLE TONER
I like to use Roberts Rosewater because it’s natural (it’s made with pure essential oils of Rosa Centifolia and distilled spring water) and it isn’t as aggressive as the usual drugstore products. It is a delicate facial cleanser/toner, it contains no colorants and it gives the skin a pleasant fresh scent.

You just put a bit on a cotton disk and tap it on your face gently, concentrating on the t-zone.

MOISTURIZE ! MOISTURIZE! MOISTURIZE!
This in one of the most important steps. Your skin needs to drink too!
Be sure you use the right cream for your skin type. My skin is very dry so I have to use a very rich formula.
I use the Garnier nordic moisture match. It comes in 5 different textures and formulas:
– Protect & Glow ( normal skin )
– Start Afresh ( normal / dry skin )
– Goodbye Dry ( dry / very dry skin )
– Wake Me Up ( dull skin )
– Shine Be Gone ( combination / oily skin )

I obviously have to use the pink one (for very dry skin) and I really like it.
Its texture is rich but non-greasy. This moisturiser gives you the comfort you need in a flash, without feeling heavy on your skin.

GENTLE FACE SCRUB (ONCE/TWICE A WEEK)
It’s important to scrub away the dead skin cells so your skin can breathe and feel soft and wonderful. My ALL TIME FAVORITE scrub is the Lush Let The Good Times Roll.
This face and body cleanser is a gentle treat for the skin, leaving you soft to the touch with a buttery popcorn fragrance. Maize flour and polenta gently exfoliate, whilst cinnamon powder stimulates and leaves you feeling fresh and revived, with beautifully soft skin. This gentle yet scrubby cleanser will soothe and soften your skin, giving it a natural glow.
Also I must remind you that all Lush products are natural and the ingredient list is the proof:
Maize Flour, Glycerine, Talc, Water, Corn Oil, Polenta, Fair Trade Organic Cinnamon Powder, Perfume, Gardenia Extract, Popcorn.
Just take a little piece, add a little warm water and then gently rub it on your face, rinse… et voilà!

GENTLE LIP SCRUB Every week try and remember to use a lip scrub too! Some people forget this step and have beautiful skin with dry cracked lips ( NOT SEXY )I use Pink Cotton Candy Scrub from Lush, it’s a blend of exfoliating Fair Trade sugar and moisturizing jojoba oil.

Scrub Bubblegum over your lips (be sure to lick off the excess) and then apply your favorite lipstick for a flawless finish.
