Skin Essentials!

Aloha!

I thought I'd start off with a post about some of my skin essentials because come on, we all think about skin care, even if we do not partake.
So, for my face, all I can say is simple. Literally, I just use Simple products.
I have massively sensitive skin, and Simple brand themselves as 'sensitive skin experts' so there really was no other choice.
My Simple product range currently consists of their 'Kind to Skin Moisturising Facial Wash' and their 'Kind to Skin' moisturisers - both the rich and light.
Now, I've had a lot of trouble with facial washes before, because I struggle with things that contain soaps and things, but this facial wash is 100% soap free which is literally a godsend for me.
I also like the fact its moisturising, as I don't feel as if I necessarily have to follow up application by moisturising, especially if I'm working early, I feel like using my facial wash is enough for the day and I'm happy, and I feel like it really does clean up my skin.
When I've stayed away from home for a few days or so, and come back and have had a breakout or something, I just get back into my routine and in a few days my skins dies down again, so I think  it's perfect.
However, I love following up with the moisturiser because I feel like my skin is so so sooooo lovely soft afterwards. I tend to use the rich moisturiser before bed and light in the day time
and I like that it doesn't feel heavy or gunky on my face, and if I get sweaty at work or anything I actually feel like it helps my skin so that is ah-mazing.

 Secondly, my body lotion must-have is Vaseline Essential Moisture.
This product is like my absolute favourite. I've tried so many different body lotions in the past, and I've never been able to find the right one. I find that a lot of body lotions and really oily or watery so it takes absolutely ages to get dry, or that they lack this feature, and i'm using like a quarter of a bottle for my legs or something silly. This moisturiser feel so soft and gentle on my skin, once again doesn't result in any irritation of my skin, I find it such a quick and easy product to use and at the end of the day I'm still feeling my skin and thinking, how is this so soft! It smells amazing too which is always a bonus and is definitely 5 star in my opinion.

Lastly, my fave hand cream is Soap and Glory's Hand Food. Now, I had always seen Soap and Glory products and was like "Oh, they look awesome"  but never bought any. However, a friend of mine got this for me last month for my birthday, along with another amazing body lotion from The Body Shop, and I'm in love with it. It smells absolutely delicious and leaves my hands feeling so smooth and soft. I like how when squeezed, the quantity of hand lotion that comes out is enough, but not too much, due the small hole, and I just can't stop using it!

So, there we have my skin essentials - what do you think? Have you experienced any of these products? What did you think? Let me know below!
