Lush

Yep, you guessed it. The skincare routine has changed yet again. I try to go 2-3 months to try skin care products if I see improvement, i'll stick with it. If not, ill move onto the next product I want to try! Which leads me to this post! Back in November, I went to my dermatologist to talk about skin in general. Skin cancer, acne & eczema to name my main concerns. She gave me a few samples to try for different concerns and we came to the conclusion that what I was using at that time just wasnt helping.

Fast forward a week, I was with a childhood friend for the weekend and noticed she had some Lush products. Ive tried their products before but never for a specific issue. Friends, the last couple of months have been a game changer.

Neither of us have ever been a fan of high end, let alone expensive skin care routines, think Birchbox samples trust us, we've tried it all! In fact, they have been the root of most of our issues. I'll be the first to admit, I have never been one who gravitates towards the more 'natural' route but folks, I think im there to stay! I have found a routine that works great for me without paying an arm and a leg. I decided to share my favorite skin care products with you on here, in hopes you could find some relief that wont break the bank!

1. 9 to 5 Cleansing Lotion- I use this liquid cleanser every morning and night, it is VERY gentle and only a pea size is needed. 1 small bottle has lasted me 3 months.

2. Dark Angels- Rubbing black charcoal all over my face was certainly n

ot something ive ever done or planned to do but this scrub is amazing! I use this every time I shower, it removes so much dirt and grime causing blocked pores (ew). Other than the black licorice smell (which ive never liked!) I love this stuff! It is not abrasive at all and saying this has not irritated my skin at all is crazy to me! It really works wonders.

3. Herbalism- I only got this because it said it was for sensitive, acne prone skin. Otherwise, I probably would have skipped it. I use this with the dark angels. It does have a very weird earthy smell, but its nothing I cant stand. I think the combination of this and the Dark Angels is keeping my skin at bay.

4. Imperialis- This moisturizer is great, it is not greasy and smells so good! I find the moisturizers with lavender work best for my skin and dont irritate. I normally use this at night.

5. Magical Moringa- This moisturizer is more of a matte finish. I use this in the morning as a primer to keep my skin from getting to oily throughout the day.
