Throughout my life, i’ve use pretty much most of Body Shops cream ranges, each cream type for when my skin was going through a different stage of life
tea tree - teenage years, for blemish prone skin
Seaweed - just coming out of teenage years, but skin was still combination type, so i used this
Vit E - this is the only cream that DID NOT suit my skin. i got itchy red bumps on my face! But maybe it wasn’t right for my skin type back then. Vit E is recommended for normal skin, so maybe it’s worth trying again, after the above comments?
Aloe Vera - this one i currently use. Suitable for sensitive skin, it is my saviour! the night cream is the best. It really calms my skin overnight
I went through a stage of buying ‘the most expensive’ creams on the market (ranging from 100 to 300 pounds.. shhh). But i must say the one place that has always been good to me (and my hubbys pocket) is Body Shop. Even those creams that are only available behind the counter (not displayed on show cos they’re too expensive) are so not worth it. They do nothing, you are paying for the packaging.
Another thing i would recommend everyone to start using is Boots No7 Protect and perfect beauty serum. My sister in law recently gave me this (was she trying to tell me i’m looking old??!) It is one of the only SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN face products one the market that is proven to actually work, giving you smooth, wrinkle free skin. Everyone should use this inder there normal moisturizer. i remember last year this product sold out in days! And it is not expensive either!
So start using it now, no matter what your age. You can thank me for this tip in 10 years, when you look half your age ![]()
