In the morning in the shower, I simply splash my face with
some water. I never cleanse as I find my face gets too dry doing it twice
daily. I hop out and apply my Lily Loves Pearl Hyper Hydrate moisturiser and
most days, John Masters SPF30 sunscreen. On the rest of my body I rub Moogoo
full cream moisturiser. I’m excited because I have recently discovered this and
it has been the only moisturiser able to get rid of my keratosis pilaris
completely! I use Harmonis Kiss deodorant on days when I am home, but I’m still
not confident enough to use it going into town or at work, so I still use a
toxic supermarket brand.
For makeup, I keep it simple. I use Bare Escentuals powder
(not totally clean, I’m aware), Physicians Formula Mascara and a cheap eyeliner
I picked up from a cosmetics store.
I usually wash my hair of a night time and sleep on it
slightly damp, so it isn’t as frizzy and unmanageable the next day. I’ve found
when I wash it in the morning it frizzes up and becomes knotty and unruly. I
have to confess, I am still using a toxic conditioner. I’ve found it really
hard to find an affordable toxic-free one that moisturises as well as this one.
I also use Thursday Plantation’s shampoo but it seems they have had a recent
reformulation and some of the ingredients now look suspect. So I fail. Anyone
have some suggestions? I use coconut oil as a leave in conditioner for the ends
of my hair, and sometimes as a mask.
Of a night, I use
Kora’s foaming cleanser; the skincare brand of the famous Miranda Kerr, and it
does a great job removing every last trace of makeup, sunscreen and pollutants
on my face at the end of the day. When I have time, I apply a manuka honey mask
to my face and relax. This has really helped with the dryness and has reduced
my acne by 50%. I massage a few drops of Trilogy’s rosehip oil into my face,
concentrating on the areas that are scarred and dry such as my chin, temples
and forehead. I then rub my Lily Loves Pearl Hyper Hydrate moisturiser in.
Tada! xx
