Skin Product Recommendations!

Today I want to talk about a few skin products that I use and why I recommend using them. First, I want to say the please remember that all skin types are different and this is only my own opinion. I’m going to be recommending some BB creams, toners, moisturizers, and a few lip balms.

Okay let’s start!

I am going to start with a few toners that I recommend and why. The first toner that I recommend and one that is my favorite toner is:

Burt’s Bees Garden Tomato Toner

This toner costs about 12$ which is a little pricey but it is really worth the cost. The bottle lasted me about five months and my skin really thanked me for using it. The toner has a really nice cooling effect and it helps to get rid of the dirt/oil that possibly was left behind from cleaning the face. I tend to get some redness around my nose and cheeks and when I would use this toner the redness would fade. Overall, this toner really helps to lighten the skin, tighten pores, and keeps the face feeling really fresh and cool. Plus the toner is 99.4% natural which is a nice feeling knowing that you aren’t putting a bunch of junk on your face!

This next toner is:

Crystal C Mist Toner by Skin79

This toner is 9$ and comes in a little spray bottle which I found to be really neat to use. So far the bottle has lasted me probably four months so far but I also don’t use it as much because I like Burt’s Bees better. However, this toner is still really great and I highly recommend it for a few reasons. The biggest reason why I recommend this toner is that it contains vitamin C which helps to brighten the skin and keep it from looking dull. I also recommend this toner because it comes in a spray bottle which really feels nice on the skin and it helps to stop the wasting of the product. You can also apply this on top of makeup if your face needs to feel a little fresher and it won’t smear or ruin it!

Now I am going to move onto some BB creams that I recommend! The first BB cream that I recommend is:

Hot Pink Super Plus Beblesh Balm by Skin79

This BB cream is 28.00$ and by far the best that I have used and it is my favorite BB cream as well. This BB cream comes in a handy pump bottle that is not only cute but also hygienic and it helps to stop waste of the product. The BB cream applies on smoothly, evenly, and it doesn’t feel cake like or clog my pores. The BB cream takes away all redness on my face and helps to make my skin look really bright and flawless. The price is kind of a lot but it really is worth it plus it lasts for a really long time. It has lasted me five months now and I still have over half left! I really love this BB cream and recommend it a lot.

The next BB cream that I recommend is:

Diamond The Prestige Beblesh Balm by Skin79

This BB cream costs about 20$ and is great for those who don’t need a lot of coverage. The BB cream has great shine to it for giving a look of dewy skin without looking oily. However, it doesn’t cover as much as the BB cream before and it also doesn’t last as long. I would use this BB cream for when my skin is doing really well and I want give a dewy look. Overall, the BB cream is worth the price for those who don’t need a lot of coverage. I wouldn’t recommend this for people who need coverage though.

Let’s move onto moisturizers but first I want to say that I don’t use typical facial moisturizers. I use drugstore lotions that work for hands and face because anything else I use either makes my face oily or it won’t help with dryness.

With that said:

 Nivea Soft

This is my favorite moisturizer and I usually can get a small bottle for about 3$ and it will last me a couple months. This moisturizer has Vitamin E and Jojoba oil which helps to keep the skin soft, smooth, and not dry. It also is very lightweight so it absorbs fast and won’t make the skin oily. For the price and value alone this lotion is worth getting. I love the fact that it has vitamin E because it is so great at restoring the skin! Overall, this is my favorite moisturizer for my face and it keeps my skin super soft.

The next moisturizer is:

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion

This moisturizer is kind of expensive at $14 for a small bottle. However, I like to use this when my sky is excessively dry and in need of major rehydration. I only use this when my skin is really dry because otherwise it is too rich and will make my skin break out. I would recommend this to whoever has really dry skin but not to someone with normal or oily. Overall, it feels really light and hydrating but it is also rather rich. It works great for dry skin and stops any flaking as well as redness caused by dryness.

Finally, now I will talk about some lip balms and glosses.

 The first lip balm I recommend is:

Neutrogena Lip Moisturizer

This lip balm is great for lips that are really chapped and in need of a light lip balm. The lip balm applies smoothly and protects for a few hours. It also doesn’t irritate the lips like some other flavored lip balms can do. This is a really basic lip balm and for the price of $3 I feel that it is a purse essential.

Another great lip balm is: 

Color Balm- Peachy Keen by Say Yes to Carrots

This lip balm is about $6 and is a tinted lip balm that applies on smoothly. The color is great for fall and it is perfect for someone who doesn’t like to wear lip stick. The lip balm is glossier than lip stick and it doesn’t irritate the lips like a lot of tinted lip balms. The balm also lasts for a while and it is full of vitamin E, Jojoba Oil, and Sunflower Seed Oil which really helps to repair chapped lips.

Finally, I recommend tinted lip butter:

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Sugar Frosting

Lip butters are a great way to keep your lips soft and looking shinny without the need of lip balm and gloss. Revlon Lip Butter Sugar Frosting is my favorite because the color is very light and makes the lip shinny without adding too much color. It is perfect for an everyday look and can even be vamped up for a night out on the town. I can usually get the lip butter for about $7 and it will last me a few months. I think this is another purse necessity because it is so versatile and can be used every day.

Even though this was a really long post, I hope that there was a lot of good information here. Just remember that every skin type is different so some of these products may or may not work for you. Until next time, take care!
