EVENING SKINCARE ROUTINE

H A P P Y  S A T U R D A Y  you guys! Today I wanted to share with you my current evening skincare routine! I always find it very interesting to see what other people use to take care of their skin. I'd say that I have normal to dry skin that can get a little bit oily during those hot summer days and occasionally I get blemishes - but nothing too dramatic. With that being said I'd like to take you step by step through my night time skincare routine!

01  B A L E A  EYE MAKEUP REMOVER for waterproof makeup (oil-based)

The first step in my night time routine has to be taking off my eye make up with an oil-based eye make up remover. I'm currently using this one by Balea that I got back in March when I went to Lörrach in Germany with a friend of mine. I gotta say that this one isn't that great with removing my waterproof mascara but I'm still gonna use it up since I don't wanna waste the product - but I definitely won't repurchase it again. (I do prefer the one by Nivea.)

02  G A R N I E R  S K I N  N A T U R A L S  MICELLAR MAKEUP REMOVING TOWELETTES for sensitive skin

Then for my face I usually like to go in either with some micellar water on a cotton pad or with these micellar wipes by Garnier that I just recently got and really like. They have a lot of product on them, aren't dry at all and do the job really well - they also don't irritate my skin. Also the wipe itself is really soft and doesn't have the same texture as the removing wipes that I normally use. I just picked them up at the drugstore and I'd actually say that I'm gonna get another pack once I've used this one up! 

03  G A R N I E R  S K I N  A C T I V E  PURE ACTIVE SENSITIVE Anti-Blemish Clarifying Tonic

When I've taken off all the makeup I like to go in once again with this face tonic so make sure that everything has really come off. I just take a little bit of it onto a cotton pad and rub it on my face - but don't put it near your eyes! I really feel like this gets off every rest bit off and my skin is absolutely clean afterwards!

04  K I E H L ' S  MIDNIGHT RECOVERY CONCENTRATE

I've been using this one for about a year now and I really like it! I can't really say that it does a lot for my skin since I don't suffer from blemishes, redness or unevenness on my skin. But I still really enjoy using it since it makes my skin really soft and I the scent that it has is really calming - has some sort of lavender scent to me (if I'm not mistaken) that I really like! I'm probably not gonna repurchase this one, not because I don't like it but just because I don't really see a dramatic difference in using it so I'm interested in using another one - maybe another one from Kiehl's maybe one from another skincare brand e.g. from Sunday Riley.

05  O R I G I N S  DRINK UP INTENSIVE Overnight Mask to Quench Skin's Thirst

I actually purchased this one almost exactly one year ago in Nashville/TN and I've used this one since then - not every night but every now and then when I feel like my skin needs something extra AND I still have a couple of uses left! I absolutely love this product and I'd recommend it to everyone that is looking for a really really moisturizing mask. I enjoy the fact that it's an overnight mask that you don't have to rinse off after 10-15 minutes. My skin feels always so plump in the morning when I use this mask and I'm definitely gonna repurchase it! The hype around this product is justified and it is over all just an amazing product!
