A new video for you here, but because it’s proved to be such a popular one already I’ll provide you with a bit of an extended blurb. The Five Beauty Products that Changed My Skin has a slightly confusing title, I suppose, because it’s much more about the five “types” of product that have changed my skin.
Each product within the video holds a special devote my beauty-lover’s heart; Emma Hardie’s Moringa Balm was the first cleanser that truly made me consider cleansing as a luxurious experience, Effaclar Duo helped me greatly with my adult acne many years ago, Liquid Gold was the first high-performance product that I tested thoroughly (it blew my mind), Medik8’s Crystal Retinal 6 paved my distance to a more clued-up retinol-testing era and Hydraluron was the first serum that made me research (and fully appreciate the powers of) hyaluronic acid.
So these were the products that opened my eyes, for a moment, to certain skincare techniques and ingredients. Cleansing balms to get that thorough, silky, beautiful cleanse. Salicylic acid (Effaclar Duo and Paulas’s Choice Skin Perfecting Liquid) for treating acne and breakouts in an exceedingly soothing and effective way. Glycolic acid (Liquid Gold, Pixi Glow, many different peel pads and masks and creams) for your overnight glow that just blows your mind. Retinol (Medik8) for the most comprehensive hit-every-sign-of-ageing-with-it solution you’ll probably ever try. Acid hyaluronic for hydrating and plumping without having to add any heavy oils or overly rich creams…
All from the details are listed below the video screen, but it’s really worth watching me talk with the skincare choices (if I do say so myself!) to get more of an idea whether these types of ingredients might be something you’d prefer to try. Do leave your comments and questions, whether you type them below or beneath the video on Youtube – I’d love to know which products you believe have had a great effect on your skin…
