Beauty routine essentials

... I can't believe that I found some!

I've always been such a beauty- and make up-addicted girl but it has always been difficult for me to find the Holy Grail(s). 

I buy a lot of beauty products (I always had... my mother used to hate me for this, our bathroom was overfilled with my stuff), experiment even more and fall in love with many of them but it's always for a limited period of time. Especially for skin-care stuff, I never found the PERFECT products. 

Lately, my beauty routine is giving me much more satisfaction than my weekly pizza (and believe me, this is big!) and since this has been going on for a while now, I think I have to share. 

And since the only friend that would understand my beauty raves is 1300 km away from my house, I can only write it here.

So, here we go! 

Autumn beauty routine 

(hope it will stay the same also for winter though, ahah!)

1. Clean the face!

Here's the baby, all consumed 

And this soap is amazing. 

It's organic and hand-made in Belgium, you can buy it online on the Bubbles at Home website. Shipping is quite expensive outside Belgium, though (but I think it's worth it)

It's an argan oil-based soap and it's incredibly mild and hydrating. I have a mixed skin but I'm not a teenager anymore, so I have that bastard skin that needs something very particular: hydrating but not too much, soothing, totally non comedogenic and deep cleansing. And with a boost of vitamin E, why not. 

This soap has all the quality in one. Magic!

2. Refine the washing!

Avène Eau Thermale. 

It's just super, no other words for it. 

I spray it all over face and neck after cleaning skin and eyes and dry it with a clean make-up remover cotton disk. Since when I started to use it I don't have irritations and itches anymore.

3. Moisturize!

Lancaster Skin Therapy

- Anti-ageing oxygen moisturizer - 

I never felt something so similar to love for a cream. 

I tried the sample of this cream by chance, and I had to have it immediately!

It's actually an anti-ageing cream, but since it's not so hard-core anti wrinkles and they say you should start at 25 to use this kind of stuff (I am already one year late!) I thought I       should give it a shot.... and I will never regret!

It's oxygen-based, so when you apply it you don't just feel that your skin is softer and brighter, it really looks like it's enlightened from the inside and that it has a boost of energy. I apply it every morning, every time I do my make-up and every night after the argan soap and Avène water.

It really works well, it's already two weeks I'm using it and I couldn't love it more. 

This is the gel-cream texture, which is perfect for my skin, but they also make a rich cream (for dry skins) and a fluid (for oily skins).

Try this, you won't regret!

My skin thanks!
