Simple Sensitive Skincare Products

Today in England it has been extremely miserable, wet and cold! The rain hasn't stopped and the cold wind is probably the worst. Which is why i am now writing a blog on Simple's Sensitive skincare products. 

Simple is a really good skincare range for people who have to put up with dry skin conditions and skin that have issues with fragranced products. 

I've only just started using their products as they had an offer on in Asda for a set of three of their products. These included a Mouisterising Facial Wash, Soothing Facial Toner and a Hydrating Light Moisteriser. 

You're supposed to use them every morning and evening, which for about a week now i have, but thanks to this horrific weather today my face has became dry yet again. So i try use the moisteriser more often but not too much. 

Overall, the products are really 'simple' (i guess that's why they were named it). All you do with the Facial Wash is massage it all into the face and neck until it goes all bubbly, and wash it off using cotton pads or what i mostly use are facial sponges. The toner is used to help form a even complexion and provide a deeper cleanser for the face, which is perfect for when you've just taken off a full coverage makeup look and want that extra guarantee that the makeup has disappeared for good. I use one cotton pad for the toner and wipe it all over my face, not forgetting the hair line, around the nose and eye, be careful not to get it in you're eye though!! 

Finishing off i use the Hydrating Light Moisteriser, this stuff literally glides onto you're face leaving it feeling silky smooth.

Another product from the simple range that i use all the time,  is their cleansing facial wipes. These are really good if you want a quick makeup remover, they are very very moist, which is great for that fresh skin feeling. 

I really would like to try more products from this range like their Hydro Boost Moister Cream and the Cleansing Face Mask. 

Hope you all enjoyed the read and manage to take a look on Simple Sensitive Skincare Range, and enjoy them as much as i do!

NSPA Skincare Products

Everyone should know the importance of looking after our skin, whether it's just on our faces or all over our bodies. It all should matter. So i thought i should share mine in hope that it might help someone.

Moving on... I regularly take long hot bubbly baths surrounded with candles (as that is the only time i truly relax) During these times i use my up-most favourite products of all time. They smell AMAZING and i genuinely think that they work so well.  These products are called NSPA. The originate from a spa called Nirvana. But they have published the products they use and only sell them exclusively in Asda. Which i find great because i have a local Asda near by and i find them reasonably cheap for how good they work. 

This is their Bathing Ritual range, it includes a moisturizing body wash, shower mousse, a foaming bath milk, body polish (which is used as an exfoliator), warming salt scrub, body lotion, body butter and a hand and nail cream. The thing i love about NSPA is that their products is organised into 3-4 groups. The first group are the cleansers which have a big number one on the packaging, the second group is exfoliation with a big number two on it, the third group is treatment, and the forth is moisturize. 

However, the bathing rituals only come in three groups which is the 1st, 2nd and 4th groups but they have recently produced a treatments range (3rd Group) for the bathing rituals, which is a body firm treatment. 

But as i was saying these products really do work and you can see a big difference in the way you're skin looks and feels. The smell is luxurious as well and the BEST thing of all is that they have produced a scented candle using the same scent of the bathing rituals range which is Jojoba and White Jasmine. Also, when you have got out of the bath an d used you're lotion/body butter, you can smell even more great by using their Jojoba and White Jasmine Body Fragrance. 

So i always have the most spa-like baths ever. 

The NPSA range also covers a Beauty Ritual Range, which again i always love to use. In fact, i use this range as soon as i come out of my bath. 

So, again they use they same organised structure, of the 1-4 assigned groups. 

The scents are all different which i think is good, because having the same scent of products get a little boring... 

Firstly i use my Deep Cleansing Facial Wash. This is a good cleanser for taking off makeup although i usually take off my makeup before i get into the bath, but i still use the cleanser and it gets out makeup that you can't always see. I use only one pump of the cleanser which is foamed based, and gently massage it into my face in circular motions. I then use cotton pads to remove it. Secondly i use a Revitalising Vitamin Toning Mist which i spray all over my face to give my skin that extra boost. 

I then move onto my exfoliators, i have three of them. I can use all of them but generally i only use one or two at a time. My main one is called a Brightening Detox Scrub which is a cream-based scrub that i massage deep into my skin. It has micro exfoliation beads that gently buff away dead skin. It smells really good as well. I remove this using Facial sponges, which i buy from Super drug. The next one is a Hot Cloth Polish, which is harder to use on yourself, but at the same time feels amazing. I usually pump 2 skirts of the cream into my fingertips and massage all over my face again. I then grab my Muslin Cloth which i put into warm to hot water, NOT TOO HOT though!! And then i gently put the cloth all over my face and dab the cloth into the cream that's already placed on my face. The feeling is like luxury. It really is!! I then remove it using the muslin cloth.

The other exfoliant is called the 5 Minute Magic Mask, and its a mask you apply to you're face which has tiny orange coloured beads that disappear when you massage it into your face, which is what it's designed for. The beads are filled with vitamins which helps to soothe your face and leave it looking more radiant. You then have to leave it on for 5 minutes. Remove by facial sponges and cold water to ease puffiness. 

Moving onto the third group, treatment. The treatment product that i use is a Deep Hydrating Facial Oil, which is great for my skin as it gets really dry in some places. So all i do with this oil is drop 2-3 drops into palm and rub together until it gets warm and gently dab it onto my face. 

I also use another product called a Replenishing Moisture Mask. Again, it's cream based which is easier to massage into my face. The reason why i use this mask is because it's deeply nourishing and you can sit back and relax for 10-20 minutes while it works wonders for your skin. Remove it by facial sponges and warm water.  

The last step is forth, which is moisturize. I use a product called Oil-free Moisture Gel. I don't want to use too much oil, so i find this moisturizer really kind to my skin. It quite literally glides onto face, leaving it feeling like a baby's bottom.  

Hope this is not boringly long for you all, i just thought it would be nice to read from someone who has used the products specifically. 

If you have any questions at all, please leave me a comment. 

Thanks again BeautyGeekz.

Chapter One

So, i am new to this whole blogging thing, but i have always found myself talking to my friends and family about my interests in Beauty. They believe that i should go into Beauty Therapy, but I've only just finished college with a qualification in Childcare. So i thought what better way than talking about Beauty not only to friends but to people on here. Blogging is the new fashion for communication. 

First things first, a little introduction about myself. I am 18 years old, 19 in June this year. If you haven't noticed already i have bright red hair. I will be writing a blog on my hair if anyone's interested in looking at it. I may not get many people looking but if i do then, well thank you, ha-ha. 

I have many interests in Beauty, my main interests in it is Makeup and Skincare. Followed by Nail care and of course, hair care. Makeup is a highlight of my life, i started using it very young, watching the people around me using makeup, and seeing women on adverts made me more and more interested.  
Since i can remember we always had an Avon makeup magazine delivered to us, obviously when i was young i couldn't read so i continuously flipped the pages to look at the pictures. When i was about 12 to 13 years old, i started asking my mum for bits and bobs (I know, young right?!) But it wasn't anything like foundations and concealers, but the little things like cheap lipsticks and eye shadows.

Now i'm older i can't get enough of the stuff, i had two draws of my bedside tables and makeup boxes underneath my bed stuffed with makeup i had collected in the years. Anyway's i sorted through all the junk i collected as a child and threw out most of the makeup that wasn't very good and i wasn't using. I now only have two draws of main makeup and a storage box underneath my dressing table. 

Since then I've been interested in skincare. I am very very self conscious of my skin, I've hated freckles for a very long time and now they've faded i'm not so unsure of them but aside of that i had very bad dry skin on my face, especially on my forehead and chin. I also have Keratosis Pilaris. It's small, red pimple like spots on my arms and legs. It's not contagious and it's harmless, but it just looks horrible. So skincare to me is important. But that's another Blog!! 

Wow, that's a huge first blog. Sorry guys!
