Very Excellent Habits

Do you ‘treat’ your skin?

No I don’t mean feeding it chocolate cake and buying it new shoes. I mean using a daily facial treatment on it. Yeah… I didn’t get what that meant either until I read Amazing Face by Zoe Foster. 

She says that you need to moistourise your skin, tone it, exfoliate it, sprinkle fairy dust on it but then also treat it with some form of serum. Every day. Basically you pick a serum that matches your issues like an Uber Awesome Amaze-balls Hydrating Serum or Foetus Face Youth Serum and it does magic shit to your face. This information would have been helpful a month ago when I started using Soap & Glory Skincare Make Yourself Youthful Rejuvenating Face Serum, because I thought it was a moisturiser with a fancy name. I was wrong. And it was a crap moisturiser, but a freaking amazing serum. Which I’m pretty sure was the plan.

I’m of the beauty school where you slap a handful of supermarket night cream on to your jowls and hope for the best but with all these fancy shmancy products available these days, coupled with the fact that I’m not getting any younger, I’ve come to love the ritual of smoothing serum on my face at night just before my moistuiser. It’s makes my skin all tingly and tight and I feel it doing very important things as I sleep. I imagine it’s how digital images feel when you drag the airbrush tool over them. It could be a placebo effect but honestly? My skin feels like the tummy of a kitten, but without all the fur. I’m sticking with my serums.

Do you use serums? Would you recommend any?
