Even in a stash as obscenely large as mine, there are still products that day in, day out, make it into the rotation. These are the daily heroes, the products that I just can't get enough of, and that really don't get the recognition they deserve on this here blog. They're really awesome, and they deserve to have the spotlight shone on them today.
First up, lets talk shower gel. A fairly boring product, but an essential nonetheless. I'm on my second bottle of the Original Source The Quench Moisturising Shower Gel with Peach and Apricot Oil, and I really like it. The water in London is really hard, and I get out of the shower with incredibly dry skin. I'm lazy, and I don't have the time to moisturise my whole body after every shower, but with this I don't need to, it's so moisturising! And, it smells incredible.
Now, I might shower every day, but I don't wash my hair every day. And any girls out there with fringes will know that by day two, they're in dire need of a wash. The Colab Rio Dry Shampoo is a total lifesaver, it refreshes second day hair perfectly, removing oil and not leaving a trace, and it smells so good that my boyfriend always comments on it. If a boy notices, you know it's good.
Skincare wise, I tend to switch things up depending on what my skin needs, but there are two items I use every day, no matter what. The first is the Caudalie Vinosource Moisturising Sorbet, my morning moisturiser of choice. The lightweight, whipped formula means that despite being incredibly hydrating, it sinks in quickly without leaving a residue on the skin, making it perfect for pre-makeup application. The second is the Bioderma Sensibo H20, which I use without fail daily to remove my eye makeup. It's just the best, gentle but effective.
I tend to switch up my brushes, depending on what products I'm using, since different products work better with different brushes. However, there's a reigning queen of concealer application, and it's the Nanshy Concealer Perfector Brush. A densely packed, artificial bristled, tapered brush, which fits perfectly under the eye, and presses in the product without pushing it about or absorbing any. The perfect brush for high-coverage, flawless concealer.
Speaking of concealer, there's no way I could write a post like this without mentioning the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. This stuff covers everything, and looks flawless on the skin. I can't not use this!
