My top skincare products -January

1. Okay, so I'll start with my ultimate favourite skincare product used in January which is.. Biore pore unclogging facial scrub. This product was my first ever purchase from Biore, and I was amazed at how pleasant smelling this scrub was.

• Pros: Cheap compared to other products on the market, smells lovely, works quickly, face feels refreshed after use, helps prevent breakouts &get rid of blackheads, scrub is gentle to skin, smaller softer beads (compared to the solid larger ones you can get in other products), good texture (not too thick nor runny), little amount needed

• Cons: I would not recommend this product to those who want a product specifically for acne of spot-prone skin, leaves nose the tiniest bit shiny afterwards

Overall I would recommended this product as it is inexpensive, packaging looks fresh and simple, i feel that this product is very effective and is also great for sensitive skin.

2. After the cold winter weather my skin was dry in areas so i turned to the good old E45, you can't really go a miss there. I find that it works well for all areas which are suffering from dry skin. E45 is also very well known to help people who are suffering from eczema.

• Pros: You can find this product in most local drugstores, helps your skin feeling soft and hydrated, can be used by most skin types, inexpensive, can be used all over body, un-fragranced so it cant go wrong with people who don't like smelly products, easy to apply and rub into skin, quick absorbent, product sized can vary from large tubs to small (easy to carry) tubes

• Cons: Skin can be left a little greasy looking, personally i would not recommend using under makeup as it can become sticky 

Overall great for the winter season, (not to sure if it would become oily and greasy in the summer), can be purchased in most shops in various sizes pots/tubs/tubes.

3. Next is Garnier's pure active spot fighting 24hour moisturiser, I started using this product about a week ago as my skin had came out in a breakout. EUGH! I purchased this product as it is kind of a two-in-one method (a moisturiser and a spot-fighting/preventing cream)

• Pros: Helps prevent the breakout of spots, does not leave skin feeling greasy, absorbs into the skin quickly, reduces spot size, nice appearence

• Cons: Difficult to find in any store, (I purchased mine from Superdrug and have never seen it in any other shop), personally I do not wear this product under makeup as it can make my skin feel quite clogged, but i would recommend that if you are going to buy this product to use once a day then I would suggest using it at night after you have washed your face 

Overall works best as a spot-cream rather than a moisturiser, inexpensive, fights against preventing break-outs very well, noticable improvement within a few days (depending on skin type).
