Today's post is all about my current skin-care products that I am obsessed with and it won't break the bank. I was supposed to get this post up on Wednesday but I wasn't able too. I decided just to wait and get it up today.
A couple of weeks ago, I went skin-care shopping, my skin started to break out so bad I had to do something to fix it. I never had an acne problem before. Now as an adult, I am starting to get "adult acne". I was breaking out so bad around my chin area and a little bit on my forehead. I told myself I need to do something so I decided to buy some skin products. Before heading to Ulta, I did some research and all of the products that I bought are amazing and I've been seeing huge results.
Before I get into the products, I wanted to tell you a little bit about my skin. It's very sensitive so I have to be very careful with the products I use. If not, it will make my skin break out even more. I received a PR package, a couple of years ago, it was a mud mask which I never posted about. I would never post about a product that I don't love. Anyways, it ruined my skin and took me up to a year to fix the problem. I spent so much money on skin-care products because I thought the more expensive a product is the better. I couldn't be more wrong. So here are all my current favorite products that are amazing and won't break the bank.
If you have been following me on Instagram, you already know I have an obsession with Mario Badescu. I have been using their products for a couple of years now. I've tried everything from their face wash to moisturizer. I love everything that I've tried from their line, and love that it's affordable. Definitely, do your research before trying any products because I can suggest what works for me but it might not work for your skin type. Right now, I am loving the Super Collagen Mask (has amazing reviews!), Chamomile Night Cream, Vitamin C Serum (which everyone should add for summertime), and drying cream for your pimples. Side note, be careful with the drying cream because it can really dry your skin!
Another product that I have raved about is First Aid Beauty. I noticed in the reviews that they are perfect for all skin types especially for someone that has sensitive skin. This might be one of my all-time favorite brands and I highly recommend to try them out. I've been using their products for about two years now and love it. Some of my go-to's are their face masks and face wash. They are starting to add makeup so I can't wait to try that out!
I picked up an exfoliating facial wash that has changed my life! This was my first time trying it out and the brand as well. I bought the smaller bottle, just because, I wasn't sure how my face would react to it. I was going to give myself a facial (which I will write another post about) I need something to really exfoliate and clean deep under my skin. This facial wash did exactly that. It left my skin feeling so soft and clean. The review of this product was amazing which is why I would suggest it to anyone that is looking for a product to exfoliate your skin. After using it, I am definitely going to pick up some more Philosophy products and keep you posted on that.
Lastly, I've been loving Trader Joe's skincare line which is superrr affordable. I read so many articles on Facebook about Trader Joe's rose water facial toner so I had to try it out! I love it so much! I recommended it to my friends and my mom loves it as well. After noticing that the facial toner was really improving my skin, I had to try their other product out too. It's kind of a funny story. Since my mom loved the facial toner, we decided to go together and bought everything they had for your skin in store. Once we tried those products, we went back and there were so many people buying all of the products. They were pushing us out of the way. It was so crazy we had to buy everything in bulks, just because, everyone was buying it. HAHA. The real reason why I love their products is the ingredients they use. Most of their products are all natural! Some of my faves are the Nourish Antioxidant Facial Serum, Citrus Body Wash with Vitamin C (all time favorite body wash), and the Nourish All-In-One Facial Cleanse (really cleans and get all of your makeup off).
Well, that's all of the products that I am currently loving. I hope you guys really enjoyed this post. Let me know what products you are loving in the comment section!
Till next time!
