When come to my skin I'm really not a product junkie I like product that do what they say they will do (perhaps its my inner tomboy but whatever). I hate heavily fragranced product and am not a fan of heavily hyped up products either but all of these product that I am about to talk about have been working miracles on my skin this winter. I usually wear makeup about three out of the seven days of the week so I think that's something that has helped reduce pimples or random bumps on my face. I've also toned down my makeup routine with the thought that less it literally more. As in applying foundation, powder, or even eye makeup the less product you put on the less work you have to put in, in order get all that gunk out of your pores. I don't really have sever acne prone skin, only the occasional dark spots and small pimples. But I do suffer from really dry skin and it is winter so sometimes I get flakey dry patches. So I like to replenish my skin with products that add moister back into my skin while also getting rid of dirt. The best thing that I ever did for my skin was stopping the constant exfoliating of my skin I would exfoliate at least 3 times a day and it was unnecessary. The products that are listed down below have totally changed the direction of my skin for the better and I absolutely recommend them for you all to try.
JERGENS SKIN FIRMING
Although I'm not particularly sure if it is actually reduces the cellulite on my ass or is firming my skin but its really moisturizing to my skin. It kind of gives my skin a nice glow and I usually combine it with some Trader Joe's Organic Coconut Oil. The two product in combination with each other leaves my face and whole body really soft.
DR.BRONNER'S 18-IN-1 HEMP PEPPERMINT PURE-CASTILE SOAP
Now being that I'm African we're strong believers of if it burns it works and Dr. Bronner's really freaking works the dirty just melts away and it leaves a cool clean feeling on your face or body it all purpose (PSA: please refrain from putting this product anywhere near your vagina you will regret it, your welcome in advance). It gets all of my makeup off and it has so many great ingredients such as Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Palm Kernel Oil, Organic Olive Oil, Mentha Arvensis, Organic Hemp Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil, Mentha Piperita, Citric Acid, Tocopherol, which are known for being really good for skin. Lately I've been convinced by my older sisters on the importance of oils in products and I have to say I'm a believer, oils are life. They just add a nice natural moisture and glow to your skin and the improvement you see in your skin is almost automatic.

NOXZEMA CLASSIC CLEAN ORIGINAL DEEP CLEANSING CREAM
As I said before I used to think that exfoliating was what took your makeup off and cleaned your skin. I wasn't really a fan of cream cleansers because I didn't really understand how they worked or if they actually did work. But the Noxzema is so worth the hype because its literally like Jesus in a bottle. It really penetrates my skin and I've noticed that it minimizes the pores on and around my nose. You can apply it to your skin wet or dry and leave it there for as long as you want (I prefer 10 + minutes) and then gently rub and push the product into your skin and rinse. It leave you with a cool tingly feeling of greatness.
SIMPLE MOISTURIZING FACIAL WASH/SIMPLE REPLENISHING RICH MOISTERIZER
The thing I love most about Simple products are that they are so gentle on the skin and it really just smells like soap very nature. It's kind of thick but I love to apply it in the shower and its never irritates or effects my face negatively. As stated on their website Simple® is a complete range of facial skincare products perfect even for sensitive skin. The Simple® brand knows that what is left out is as important as what is put in when it comes to gentle, yet effective skincare. All Simple® products have no dyes, artificial perfumes or harsh irritants that can upset skin and contain skin-loving ingredients and added vitamins for natural, healthy-looking skin. Simple® products are hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic and pH balanced. I use this product in the morning to freshen up my face and its just soothing after I use Dr. Bronner's Castile Soap to remove my makeup or just to cleanse my face which is a little more intense. Lastly I put on the Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturizer right after I'm completely done washing my face. It has a thick gel-like consistency that isn't too heavy and it doesn't have a greasy after glow when applied.
Thanks for stoping by guys hope you enjoyed this post until next time
