Here I am, a week into my post-surgery-recovery. First semi-painless day. A perfect time to binge-write a few posts.
I have (another) confession to make. I sometimes donât follow my own advice when it comes to skincare.
Here are some of my most common skincare sins.
Itâs officially Summer today, the sun is out, which means itâs time for my list of favourite SPFs.
Disclaimer: I wear SPF 365 days a year, I prefer mineral sunscreens (for their stability, the fact they physically protect your skin and because I have a bad history with Octocrylene, which is not even a proper sunscreen but a stabiliser).
The days of mineral sunscreens being white are gone – those heavy, un-spreadable formulations with a âlooking-like-a-ghostâ finish – theyâre a thing of the past. However, mineral sunscreens arenât just a, well, sunscreen! The majority of them are packed with loads of hydrating ingredients, high quality oils and other goodies and can be easily be doubled up as a daily moisturise too.
Wow.
I can get overly excited over skincare launches (which shows in my collections I am trying to use and which also resulted in the â3-out-1-inâ rule by my fiancĂ©).
I love Dermalogica! Some of their products in the top ten of my staples (Daily resurfacer, daily microfoliant, Skinperfect primer with SPF and a few products from their professional range). Their SPFs are also really good. I havenât had any full size so far, but Iâve tried samples for almost all of them.
