My Current Skin Care Rutine

Hello lovelies :)

I already talked about my skin care in this post, but I did change it a bit during the past few months. I am not somebody who would change her skin care too often, because I like to stick with products that work. If it works do not fix it, right? I do like to experiment from time to time though and after some reaserch and long testing I decided that I will swap some old products with some new ones. Now that does not mean that I was not satisfied with my previous skin care rutine, but I can not deny that this one works a bit better.

AFRODITA CLEAN PHASE CLEANSING FOAM (NORMAL TO OILY SKIN)

I always start with this product in the morning to cleanse my skin from the oil that appears on my skin during sleep, and I also use it as a make up remover in the evenings. It is a really nice creamy foam that dos not dry out my skin and makes a really good job when it comes to removing make up.

FRUIT OF THE EARTH ALOE VERA GEL

Manca from Invisibly Perfect recommended this aloe vera gel a few months ago, and I must say that she was not wrong. I love to use it before right after the foam in the morning or after I apply the Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid in the evening. It is hydrating, soaks into the skin really quickly and it is really light weight. I also use it after waxing my legs and it does a really good job when it comes to calming and nurishing my skin.

AFRODITA NATURAL LIFT EYE CREAM

My go to eye cream for quite some time. I apply it right after I clean my skin with the foam. It has a really creamy and rich texture, but it soaks into the skin quickly and I can instantly feel how it mosturizes my skin. If I could only have one skin care product this cream would be it.

AFRODITA OIL CONTROL 24H MOISTURIZING CREAM

I was jumping backward and forward between this cream an the serum. I think both are good, but there is more product in the cream, so I decided to use the cream instead of the Oil control serum. It smells like lemon and looks quite thick, but once I apply it on the skin it soaks into the skin really quickly (unles applied too much) and it leaves a true matt finish behind, but still hidrates my skin. I use this product in the morning, after I apply the aloe vera gel.

PAULA'S CHOICE SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA LIQUID

I only use this BHA liquid in the evening. After I use the foam and eye cream, I dab this liquid on my skin and massage it a bit untill it soaks into my skin. It feels a bit oily, but does not leave an oily resedue once it soaks into the skin. I use this product because I have some nasty purple scaring from acne and BHA chemicall peelngs are supposed to help removing the scars over time. I must say that removing the scars is a long proces, but I am already seeing some progress. Some scars appear a bit lighter and smaller than before. Overall this product makes my skin really soft and smooth.

ALPSTORIES COLD PRESSED 100% PURE ORGANIC HAZELNUT OIL

I recently reviewed this product in this post so I am not going to talk extensively about it here. I use it as the last product in my skin care rutine. I use a few drops in the morning and a pump in the evening. It soaks into the skin quickly and nurishes it nicely.

Do you have any of these products or other products from these brands? What do you think about them?

Thank you for reading :)

Have a nice day :)

My skin care rutine

Hello lovelies :)

I had this post planed a while ago, but decided to postpone it for a bit just so that I was 100% that all of the products shown in this post suit my skin. I use products from Afrodita because so far only this brand of skin care really did something for my skin. Here are all the products I use:

MORNING RUTINE

First things first I use Afrodita young & pure purifying foam for oily and impure skin. This foam helps me mattify my skin and cleans it, preparing it for other products. After that I use Natural Lift anti-wrinkle eye cream on my lid and my under eye area. Aldough this cream is quite rich it sinks into the skin quickly, it also makes my eye area feel much softer and less irritated. I finish my morning rutine with Oil control mattifying serum which mattifys my skin and keeps it hydrated troughout the day. Without using this serum I become oily much quicker, so it definetly works for me.

NIGHT RUTINE

I start my night rutine with young & pure purifying foam which not only cleans my skin but also gently removes any make up I was wearing. If I use it for removing make up I use 2 or 3 pumps of the product (depending on how much make up I wear) and if I use it for cleaning my skin I use only 1 pump. After that I apply Natural Lift anti-wrinkle eye cream on my eye area and Oil control moisturizing cream on my face. Aldough this cream is really good at hydrating my skin and pore minimizing I am thinking about switching it up with the serum, just because I do not feel the need to use two different products that do almost the same thing. This cream sinks into the skin really quickly and mattifys it while keeping it nicely hydrated. After that I use Natural lift anti-wrinkle mosturizing serum on my face and neck, which is on its own too rich for my skin, but with the oil control cream underneath tones it down a bit and makes the whole face look more matt than just using the serum on it's own.

OPTIONAL PRODUCTS

I use these products from time to time, depending on the situation. For instance when I am wearing wareproof make up that the foam can not remove I will use eather Clear phase micellar solution or Clean phase eye make up remover, depending on how much eye make up was left over after clensing my skin. I like to use Clean phase eye make up remover more than micellar solution just because it is quicker and I do not mind the oily film that Clean phase eye make up remover leaves. In case I run out of purifying foam I switch to young & pure refreshing toner for normal to oily skin, which I do like, but I just prefer the foam a bit more, because it removes make up better.

In case my skin is acting really nasty (or 1 a month) I will use a lemon scrub (just lemon juice mixed with some sugar), which leaves my skin really smooth. If I get a spot I usually treat it with tea tree oil, which helps it cure faster. The most important thing is ofcourse drinking enough water, I drink at least 2 l of water a day, sometimes even more, depending on the weather.

Well that would be for today. What is your skin care rutine? 

Do you use any of the same products as me?

Have a nice day ;)
