Blogtober: Day Seventeen

Saturday 17 October 2015


There are some things in life that I can live without (crisps and shoes are not on that list) but when it comes to my daily routine, I have to have my favourites. I genuinely feel rather odd when I go to bed without certain lotions and potions; clearly I’ve turned myself into a routine monster.

While I do try to maintain a full on skincare routine, more often or not I just can’t be bothered. When laziness strikes I keep things simple with Garnier Micellar Water to remove my make up and Olay Beauty Fluid to keep my face moisturised. The Olay Beauty Fluid has been slathered on my face for years now thanks to my mum recommending it to me.


I’ve been using the Garnier Micellar Water since it was originally released and I absolutely adore it. I tried to go back to make up wipes after struggling to repurchase the Garnier Micellar Water (it was sold out everywhere!) but my face felt absolutely disgusting after using just one. I never realised how little make up wipes actually remove.


Lush and I get on like a house on fire and after trying multiple products, Sympathy for the Skin is a firm favourite. I use it after every shower and occasionally at night when my skin is feeling a little dry. It’s the best moisturiser I’ve ever used and it seems to be awfully popular in my household.


There are multiple lip balms lying around my house but I’ve started to really favour Lush’s offerings. Whip Stick (the gorgeous chocolate scented lip balm) is currently lying in the bag I use on a regular basis so Lip Service is the one that sits next to my bed. While I’m not overly crazy about the smell of Lip Service I love how soft and moisturised it leaves my lips. The cold weather is currently wreaking havoc on my lips at the moment so Lip Service is a God send.


It’s safe to say I like to keep things simple and convenient at times. My lazy routine takes less than 5 minutes so it’s perfect for all of those times when I’ve demolished far too many episodes of Modern Family. I should really set an alarm for 10pm every day so I can actually do my full skincare routine. Oh who am I kidding?
