This is a small update on skincare!
I’ve been using two moisturizers for face. Chambor Essential Day Moisturizer(
normal to oily skin) for daytime. I’ve had this one since months and I think
winter time is the best time to use it. Its not suitable for my combination
skin otherwise, it suits normal skin only. Avon
Solutions Moisturizer is a nice night moisturizer, I mentioned it in my
previous skin care post as well. It’s meant for oily skin too, but in winters
my skin is normal and this suits it well.
Avon
Aloe Hydra Cool Eye Mask is something I’ve had since an
year. I use it only when my eyes get
puffy and it really helps reduce the
puffiness by 50% everytime I use it. Its extremely gentle too. I’ve been
using it recently because I’ve been up late at night(or should I say early in
the day?) and hence, puffy eyes.
L’Occitane
Divine Eyes Cream sample is something I had taken when I shopped online from L’Occitane. I mentioned in my previous skincare
post that I’ve been using Himalaya Under Eye cream, but I’ve switched to this
because I wanted to finish it. I still have 1 sample left, you can get
5-6 uses out of one 1ml sample. This is meant to be a youth eye treatment, yet
to see any difference to my eyes though.
Now coming to my
favourite part, the face. I’ve been pampering myself with a small mask
and scrub routine at home. I don’t do this often, that’s why the only masks I
had were those that I had used in summers.
Cyclax Vitamin E & Cucumber Mask is supposed to be cooling, but it’s not. It’s
like a normal clay mask that detoxifies skin. I find that after I’ve used this,
my blemishes are greatly reduced, it doesn’t dehydrate my skin and my pores
look tighter too. It also claims to stimulate cell renewal but I can’t confirm
if it does that. It was brought from Singapore by my mother, I don’t think it
is available in India.
St. Ives Apricot Scrub is a recent purchase and I absolutely love
it. I get why it has received so many rave reviews, if you find this at any of
those beauty stores, Grab It! I’ve used only 4-5 times till now, still the tube
looks like its half empty although I used a small amount each time. If you live
in a really cold place, you would need a creamier scrub than this one.
Freeman’s Cucumber Peel Off Mask is again something that I had brought for
use during summers. This mask does give that cooling effect, but my sister said
that it stings her skin, so stay away from this if you have a sensitive skin.
I’ve been using it now cause I gotta finish it.
