Skincare to Makeup Part 2: Image Skincare

If you've been keeping an eye on the blog lately or have been following me on social media, you may have come across me explaining that I am currently doing a three-part series on brands that approach makeup from a skincare point of view, or skincare brands that have recently released a makeup line. Skincare has started to play a very important role in my life, especially as I am in my thirties and ageing skin is a thing. Paying attention to what we put on our face is the trend these days and makeup is no exception. My first post was on mineral makeup brand Jane Iredale, who utilise natural ingredients to get the best out of our skin and be as beautiful as we can be. Don't worry if you've missed the first part of my 'Skincare to Makeup' series, you can find it right here.

This second part is all about skincare brand Image Skincare. Image Skincare focuses on scientific advanced formulas that offer clear results, postponing any signs of ageing as much as we can. Their motto:

"IMAGE now, Age later."

Image Skincare is a brand trusted by professionals but as it is now also available to non-professionals like you and me, I felt it was time to see what we're actually dealing with and whether the products are worth it.

The Ordinary Colours Foundation: More Than Just A Hype?

I remember exactly when I first heard about The Ordinary.. well actually, read about The Ordinary, in Stylist Magazine a few months ago. Since that moment, I feel like I can't escape it! It's definitely the most talked about brand of 2017. Obviously my curiosity was peaked and I just had to see what the fuss was all about! I started off with the Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5, Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG and the High-Spreadability Fluid Primer, which I absolutely love. But as you have probably seen, The Ordinary has since then taken things a step further with the release of their foundations.

My March Skincare favourites: The Ordinary & La Roche-Posay

I can't believe it's April already! Time for me to look back at March. Last month, my skin suffered from redness, with dry patches on my cheeks and an oily t-zone as well as my usual under-eye puffiness. The windy days here in Birmingham definitely didn't help with that, so I decided to give my skin a little bit of extra TLC.
