Vaiva's skincare line - Combination skin....

Hello ladies,

As you all know, every one of us has a different type of skin. One of us may have very dry skin, while others might have very oily skin and of course, a lot of girls will have combination skin and this is what I have....

I had a very hard time dealing with my skin and it took me forever to find perfect products to prevent my skin from drying out and become very oily/greasy.

My T-zone is very oily and my nose and cheeks are dry and chapped and when applying make-up it looks horrible and patchy if it's not perfectly moisturised.

Therefore I use these products to perfect my combination skin and I call it my own skincare line as I use more that one skincare product.

Products are:

-No7 Beautiful Skin Foaming Cleanser, for Normal/ Oily skin
This foaming cleanser is perfect after your daily scrub, as it just makes the skin feel very soft and glowy, the result is instant after the first wash. I use this product daily, before going to bed and of course when cleaning my face with the facial scrub, right after.

-Clean & Clear Advantage Clear & Soothe Daily scrub Oil-Free, tough on spots & gentle on skin with natural aloe vera & exfoliating beads.
I personally use this scrub once a week or every time I wear full-on make-up. Even though this scrub has beads which are gentle on the skin, it's still a scrub and I have noticed that if I use it daily it dries out my skin, almost feels like it rubs off the very top skin layer. This scrub opens up the pores and for that reason I use the foaming cleanser after to finish off the cleaning process.

-Clean & Clear Advantage Spot Control Moisturiser Oil-Free.
I use this product after I cleanse my face with the facial scrub or the foaming cleanser, this prevents me getting spots over the night, this also hydrates my faces, so it doesn't become oily or dry. This moisturiser is very light and easy for the skin to absorb.

-Vichy Idelia Normal to Combination skin.
I came across this brand, when I actually was sent a sample of it to my house. I had this craze one day when I signed up for alot of freebies (as probably what alot of girls do, or maybe just me, haha). And I tried the sample of Vichy face cream. I am not sure now if the sample was for combination skin or it was for other types of skin, but it instantly felt very light and left my skin very smooth. I then went on a mission to find this brand and I didn't have to go far as you can find Vichy at Boots ( I am not sure about other shops such as Superdrug or Savers). I was lucky enough that Vichy did creams for combination skin which I found very hard to find for other branded face creams. Once I started using it daily my skin instantly felt better and looked better. The cream is very light and the skin absorbs the cream very quickly. I found it amazing that when using it before going to bed, the skin doesn't become oily overnight, it doesn't get blocked so you don't have to wake up thinking that a few pimples popped out while you were asleep. I do apply this after I apply the Clean & Clear moisturiser and it still doesn't become oily overnight and I don't get pimples.

-Clean & Clear Advantage Spot Control Treatment Gel Fast Action.
This magical gel is so amazing! If you ever get a pimple or a spot and you are in public, or even at home, just apply this gel on to the affected area and in a few hours the pimple/spot will clear away. This is my life-saver, as you can also apply it over your make-up which is even better. It's a clear gel, so when applying it over your make-up, it doesn't ruin the effort you put in to look pretty.

-Vichy Normaderm Soin Hydratant anti-imperfections global.
I use this skin hydratant as my make-up base, as it is perfect! It hydrates your skin and holds in the make-up. The pores do not get clogged up and when applying make-up it just glides onto your face. So, really this hydratant/make-up base prepares the skin for when applying the make-up. I personally use it only when I apply my make-up, of course I use other products I have listed as well.
