Loved and left them… Inspiration - Hyped products we forgot about!

The beauty industry has changed - we have more beauty brands now than ever and see new ones launching all the time.

This means a huge amount of new products, launches and re-launches, meaning that it is pretty much impossible to keep up - even for beauty addicts.

It also has two ofter "consequences" - firstly we hype up a lot of products, that we very quickly forget about again, because something new comes along, we have to try.

Secondly there are a quite the chance, that we will miss something good out there!

So I thought, I would give these two categories some love in this little two part series.

Today I will go through some of the products, that were really hyped at some point, but we never really hear about anymore - probably not because we don't love it, just because we got distracted by something new.

Detox Darling… Review - Caudalie Instant Detox Mask!

Face masks is probably the skincare category, where I most often try out something new.

I love browsing beauty webshops and looking at high rated products, and that is how I found this Caudalie Instant Detox Mask.

My skin has been acting up a bit lately, so I was very much on the look out for something to help with this and it seemed perfect for that.

I have been trying this out the past few weeks and is ready to report.

Let's Cleanse & Moisture… Current Skincare Routine - Evening Routine!

So now we made it to the second part of my skincare routine - the evening part, which is a bit more extensive than my morning routine, you know with the make up removing and all :-)

Go back to my morning skincare routine to see a bit of a explanation on my skin type.

Make sure to click the products to see in depth reviews of the products.

Let's Cleanse & Moisture… Current Skincare Routine - Morning Routine!

I realised, that it has been quite a while, since I last did a skincare routine post - actually almost exactly two years (you can see my old skincare routine posts here)

As you will see, that is quite a few reruns, but I've changed up quite a big part of my skincare routine since then.

Let me just start with a little introduction to my skin type.

I have somewhat sensitive skin and can't just use any product, and that is probably the main focus in my skincare routine, not to upset my skin.

This is also the reason, why I tend to stick to, what I know works!

My skin is dehydrated and especially in the winter, I get dry patches, if I don't use the proper skincare.

But I do also suffer under smaller spots/blackheads and uneven skin - but I rarely get a big break out, unless I use something my skin doesn't like (saying that, I do actually have a big one right now, without any explanation).

So with that said, you can decide for yourself, if you think, my skincare routine would suit your skin type.

Skin Hydrators… Product Battle - Caudalie Vinosourse Serum vs. Antipodes H2O Intensive Serum!

The Caudalie SOS Thirst Quenching Serum has been a staple in my skincare routine for quite a while.

But a few months ago, as I was running low, I decided it was time to try something new, however still something, that did the same.

I have a really love/hate relationship to Antipodes, some of their products I adore and some of them, not so much!

But I really liked the sound of this one, so I wanted to give it a try.

They pretty much claim to do the same - give you skin a good injection of hydration, so I thought a product battle was needed!

Only one… Review/May Favourite - Caudalie Vinosource SOS Morning Eye Rescue!

I was trying to put together my list of May favourites, but found it really hard.

I felt like there was actually only one product, that really stood out to me this month.

Not that I haven't enjoyed other products, but they are product I have mentioned a million times before or that I'm don't feel, I have used enough to call favourites.

Also this month, I haven't been using a lot of products, as I have been occupied with exam reading.

But I still really wanted to let you know about this product - The Caudalie Vinosource SOS Morning Eye Rescue.

Sample Perfection… Review - Caudalie Vinoperfect Trio!

I got this little luxury sample set as a gift with purchase on Feelunique, when I restocked my favourite Caudalie products.

It was actually quite generous samples, so I got over 2 weeks use from them.

And I thought, I would let you know, how I got on with them.

Holy Grail... Products I'd rebuy!

I only have one true holy grail product, which will also be featured below, but I have several products, that I rebuy over and over again or know I will rebuy again.

And I though, I would share them with you.

Skincare:

The joy of discovery.... My favourite products of 2012!

I was thinking about doing a "classic" 2012 favourites product.

But I decided to do the products, I've tried for the first time and fallen in love with during 2012, and that I'm sure, I will be loving for many years to come.

Skin:

Caudalie Vinosource S.O.S Thirst Quenching Serum and Beauty Elixir:

A big brand discovery for my this year was, as so many others, Caudalie.

Both products have such a positive effect on my skin.

So I know, I will be using these products for many years to come.

Clean on me, Part 2 ... Skin care routine - Evening + extra treatments!

So as promised in Part 1, here is part 2, which includes evening routine and extra treatments.
(see Part 1 about morning routine here)

I really try to cleanse my skin every night.
But to be honest, I don't - However I always do, when I have worn make up.
But for the days, where have just have a stay-at-home day, I might skip it!

These are the products, I use in the evening:

Clean on me, Part 1... Skin care routine - Morning!

Over the past year and a half, I have tried out a lot of new skin care products.

Some I really liked and others didn't really do anything for me.

So recently I have gone back to some old products, that I know works with my skin.

But still I have a number of products in this routine, that I found during my try outs!

I will probably still be trying out new products once in a while, but for the moment, my skin really reacts positively to this routine.

Just to summarise, I have very sensitive skin, and it's dehydrated, especially on the cheeks.

But I also have problems with blackheads, large pores, redness and the occasional pimple.

So with my skin care, I aim both to hydrate, but also to deep clean and keep impurities to a minimum, with products that doesn't irritate my skin.

So this is my morning skin care routine.

"Like, Like, Like".... Current favourites #1!

I love see and read what other have as their favourites.

So I want to share mine as well.

I know, that most do monthly favourites, but that's not for me. 

So it will probably be a current favourites once in a while.

But for now, here are my current favourites:-)
