MOISTURISER

Moisturiser....as you enter your 20's, you need to keep your skin hydrated and fresh if you want to keep getting asked for ID at bars.

I've tried my fair share of moisturiser over the years and  my favourite ones are surprisingly the most inexpensive. The most I've ever spent on a moisturiser is $76 in australia. It was estee lauder ultra hydrating night creme and yes, it was fabulous but you can get just as good moisturisers for way way less.

Here's some of my favourites:

CLARINS MULTI-ACTIVE DAY CREAM

NIVEA REGENRATING NIGHT CREAM

OLAY REGENERIST NIGHT CREAM

CLINIQUE MOISTURE SURGE

And believe it or not:

SUDOCREM

Clinique moisture surge is absolutely amazing but as with most clinique products, it's a wee bit pricey. Worth it though because it is heaven!!! The clarins day cream is my favourite day moisturiser...it has high protection sunscreen which is VERY IMPORTANT if you want to preserve your skin. The others are night creams, the Olay one is again quite expensive but the Nivea one is a cheaper alternative and it does the job. Sudocrem is just the best thing ever! Yes I know it's for nappy rash..but ever heard the expression 'soft as a babys bum'? well, sudocrem does that to your skin. If I have a pimple, i put sudocrem on it and the next day it's almost gone. Every couple of weeks i cover my whole face in sudocrem(except for the eyes...it burns!!!) before I go to sleep and when I wake up my skin is unbelievably soft.

My favourite tinted moisturisers are:

CLARINS HYDRA-CARE

DOVE ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS

I haven't been able to find the Dove moisturiser in London but the Clarins one is everywhere.

As for body moituriser, hands down this one is the winner:

ST IVES WHIPPED SILK

It's creamy, lightweight and absorbs quickly and it leaves your skin feeling soft and hydrated for ages!!! One of the things that makes me incredibly happy is having a shower, putting a treatment in my hair, covering myself in St Ives, moisturising my face, making a cup of tea and sitting in bed watching TV or an old movie. Fab!!!!
