My Nighttime Routine.

before: read on to watch the process of how i get my face ready for bed

I talk a lot about the kinds of products I use on my face. Usually when I’m reviewing a product, I’ll only show you how I use it by itself, and I know it can be tricky seeing how it fits in my routine. I know there’s nothing quite like seeing it in action. So today, I’m taking you step-by-step through my night time routine, to show you HOW exactly I use what I do and WHY.

this is just the tip of the iceberg

Next, I run my hands under the tap to wet them then massage my face again. This emulsifies the oil and gets it to start deep cleansing the skin and removing dirt.

Bet you thought we were finished.

I mask three times a week, and it so happens that this routine took place on such a night. If it’s a night that I’m masking, I will dab my face kind of dry then reach for my face mask. This time it’s Fresh’s Sugar Face Polish (the one that came recently). I put a bit in my palm (again, I know that it’s not the best) and then using circular motions again, I massage it over my face, concentrating on problem areas like my forehead or wherever else I feel some issue arising. When I’m done, I hop in the shower for ten minutes and let the mask set.

i’ve learned that a little goes a long way… and that i ALWAYS get this in my hair

really love using this fresh sugar polish. my face always feels like it’s getting an in-depth power clean

Shower done, I rinse my face with warm water that almost always turns scorching (please someone tell me why this always happens to me when I’m rinsing off a mask).

I then let my face air dry until just before the last drops have evaporated. Then moisturise my face. Right now I’m using my Nivea Cherry Blossom & Jojoba Oil Lotion. I’m not using any night creams or night masks, but if I was, I’d apply them after moisturising my face.
