My Daily Skincare Routine

I thought I'd share with you my daily skincare routine. As a disclaimer, I'm not a professional skincare person, and these products work for my quite dry, almost spot free skin. I also have a small budget, so everything I use are relatively cheap drugstore products.
Products used in my daily skincare routine.
First I use my Boots Skin Clear Deep Cleansing Lotion, which I put on a cotton wool pad and wipe all over my face by avoiding my eye area. I find this gets ride of any makeup I didn't manage to remove the night before and also remove any oil around my nose. It also last a really long time, as I bought this around November and have used it everyday but is only just running out (which means an excuse to go shopping !)
Next I use the Simple Kind To Skin Purifying Cleansing Lotion which I squirt onto a cotton wool pad and use on my eye area, to remove any mascara and eyeliner which may be there, I also finds it can sooth my eye area especially when they are irritated due to hay fever.
I then moisturise using the Simple Kind To Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser as I find my deep cleanser dries out my skin which looks hideous under my makeup. I love this moisturiser as it is really light which means it doesn't make me overly oily which used to happen when I used a different moisturiser.
This is what I do in the morning when I wake up and at night to remove makeup and moisturise before falling asleep.
Also...
If I have time in the morning or at the weekends I use the Clearasil Daily Clear Vitamins and Extracts Scrub. It says on the packet that it is suitable for everyday use but I think its a little to harsh so only use it a couple of times a week. I also love the smell I have the one with avocado and pomegranate extracts, I love using it as it does just smell so good. I can't really describe the smell, but it smells fresh and lovely (if that helps).

My 'If I have time' products !
At the weekends in the evenings I occasionally like to use the Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Peel Off Face Mask. It claims to "deep clean, tighten pores and help to remove blackheads. I think it does deep clean, and I saw an reduction in the amount of blackheads I had once starting to use this. I love the smell, as it smells of tea tree which makes me feel all clean, I also love how its peel off so there is no mess when trying to remove it. Another advantage is that it is really cheap, only 99p and is usually on a 3 for 2 offer. I am also running out of this as have finished a tube and only have one small packet left.
 
Hope you enjoyed this post and found it useful in anyway. Please comment anything you would like me to blog about and any improvements I could make to my blog.
Thank you
