Summer Skincare | Holy Chic

Today I bring to you the first instalment of #BeautyDaysOfSummer where over the course of 8 weeks I will bedding some summer themed post as part of this challenge. I am going to take you through my summer morning and night time skincare routine which isn’t too dissimilar from my winter routine (I don’t really have seasonal routines really) but I hope you enjoy it regardless.

 So firstly I will cleanse my skin and remove any of the night before makeup with my Garnier micellar water. I will then spot treat my excema patches with some E45 cream which is what that white tub is. Because I find this too greasy as an all over moisturiser, this goes on underneath my nspa primer which creates a barrier for my oils. I will then moisturise with the infamous Palmers cocoa butter and finish off with my Garnier under eye roll on.

 

There isn’t much difference here again but I as always will take my cleanser/toner Garnier micellar water to remove any excess dirt or oils from my face. I will then moisturise all over with my Cocoa Butter night renewal cream which is a much thicker consistency but leaves the skin feeling smooth and well moisturised. I will then use my Garnier regenerating eye cream and finish off with some nivea lip balm.

So there you have it. I try and keep it simple and just keep my skin as clear as possible and if my skin likes something, I try not to change it. I like my skincare to be lighter during the day and heavier at night. I hope you like it and let me know some of your favourite skincare products for the day or night down below.
