Oh So Simple

Hi guys :) The other day I went into Superdrug for no reason and came out with a load of Simple products haha. I wanted to get a proper routine going for my skin, using products from the same brand or mainly the same brand as I find that the way I currently do things doesn't really work as I'll use one product from one brand, another from a different brand etc and they just don't really go together. I love Simple. I have sensitive skin and I feel as though these products have always worked wonders whenever I have bought them in the past, so now I have decided to base my skin care routine on Simple products. 

Kind To Skin Moisturising Facial Wash

This facial wash leaves my skin feeling hydrated and soft; I absolutely love it. This is something that I normally do in the morning, but I also do it before I go to bed at times because it is just amazing haha.

Basically, I wet my face before applying a decent amount of the facial wash. I gently rub it into my skin and then wash it off with water. It just cleanses my face after a long nights sleep so that I am feeling more awake, and also cleanses it after a long day of wearing make-up. 

Kind To Skin Micellar Cleansing Water

I basically use this product to remove my make-up as it also helps to cleanse your face and unclog pores. This product is so good as it leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed after a long day of being covered by loads of make-up. 

I never actually understood why brands started to bring out these micellar products, so I researched it and found out that micelles are little molecules that are attracted to dirt and oil, so they are perfect for cleansers as they help to remove them from your pores. I just think that was a really clever idea haha. 

Kind To Skin Protecting Light Moisturiser with SPF 15

I needed to find a moisturiser with SPF, especially as it is summer now! For the best protection, you need one which protects you against both UVA and UVB rays, which this one does :) When I saw this product I just had to pick it up! It leaves my skin soft and moisturised for hours and it is now a vital part of my skin care routine. 

Basically, i apply this mainly to my face and neck as they suggest, but also to places like my arms and legs which need moisturising and protection haha. I apply this gently because you shouldn't rub your skin or be harsh with it. 

Kind To Skin Micellar Cleansing Wipes

These are also my go-to make-up removal products as they have the micelles in them to help clean out my pores and they are just so gentle and I don't need to scrub my skin for it to actually remove my make-up as I have had to with previous wipes that I have tried from other brands! 

These wipes are perfect for removing all types of make-up. I normally just have to wipe across my eyes once and it is all off, which is pretty great I think! 

So, that is my recent skin care haul haha. Simple is perfect for sensitive skin. Some products that I have used have given me rashes or red patches over my face and I have just had really bad experiences; but never with this brand. I don't know why I never thought to do this before but oh well, better late than never ay?

Just to say, I haven't been sponsored or anything like that, I just wanted to share with you my thoughts and what I picked up so that maybe you could go and give them a try for yourself as they have products for all skin types :)

Which reminds me, Simple have this questionnaire thing online which you can complete called the Simple Sense report. Basically they ask you questions on your skin care routine, health and lifestyle to help them come up with a routine that would be perfect for your individual needs. 

I took it and it said that I need to focus on the areas of 'Deep Cleanse', 'Protect' and 'Nourish' so that my skin can be kept healthy and soft even with my lifestyle. It recommends products for you to use, some of which I shall be purchasing soon to get started with my routine and to build on these products that I have mentioned. 

What are your favourite skin care products?
