you can call me skincare crazy if you want to...

I'm not sure what it is that fascinates me this much about skincare. I just love to pamper and treat my skin. That way it looks much better and healthier to me. I try to eat healthy, exercise and drink a lot of water, but this glowing skin doesn't come that easy. You really have to have a everyday- and night-skincare-routine that suits your skin type. So here are my favorite skincare bits that I use on a day-to-day basis.

Cleansing:





I've been using the bioderma solution micellaire for almost an year now. It's great to take your make up off, both - foundation and mascara, eyeshadow and all that jazz. It doesn't dry your skin out or anything. Great for sensitive skin. I got the clarins lotion douce demaquillante two weaks ago. I'm not so sure if I like it. It's really hard to take your mascara off with this stuff. I'm thinking about getting the more oilyer one from the clarins range. 






Lately I'm really into the hyped cleansing balms from liz earle and of course emma hardie. They're both great for taking all of your makeup off and really deeply cleansing and hydrating your skin. I'm personally more on the oily side and these two work really nice for my skin. No breakouts or anything else alarming so far. 


Toners:




The clarins doux exfoliant is a bit of an different toner as I'm normaly used to. It's supposed to exfoliate your skin as you could guess from the name. It's nice! The caudalie eau de beaute comes in a spray bottle. It contains alcohol and I have a feeling it's kind of drying out my skin a little bit. It's a again, kinda hyped product but I haven't seen a huge different in my skin since using this. Also it was expensive so I will use this up. 



Moisturizers:

As moisturizing the most cleansing balms are, a day- and nigh-tcream is super important. I've been using the make a difference line from origins. It's a gel formula and really light, but yet moisturizing enough for my oily skin. For eye creams I'm using the origins starting over eye cream. It's alright but I think I could use a bit thinker, more moisturizing one. That's why I lately bought the bobbi brown one.  So far I'm happy with this one.






Serums: 





Alpha-H liquid gold is an amazing over night treatment. It contains glycolic acid which is supposed to restore your skin overnight. It's a bit tingly when you first put it on, but only for a few minutes or so. Both kiehl's serums are great. I've been using both for almost a year now. The midnight recovery concentrate is again, an overnight serum. The powerful strength concentrate should be applied under your daily moisturizer. The same with the origins a perfect world serum


Masks and Peelings:




Of course you got to have some mascs and peelings in your skincare shelf! These are some great versions that I've been testing for a few month now. The glamglow mask really gives you a nice glow after applying. It also helps with breakouts and can be used as a spot treatment overnight. The totally hyped origins drink-up intensive overnight mask is worth the hype too. It is really moisturizing and calming. 

So all in all, you can't go wrong with all these products if you have kind of the same skin like mine. Definitely worth the money :)

Hope you liked my first international entry.
