About 2 years ago, in the beginning of 2016 my skin started to really act up. I never had problematic skin, it was never really dry and never really oily. But for some reason, my skin got super sensitive and dry that winter. My normal moisturiser didn't really work anymore so I did some research online. I wanted something quite simple, very moisturising and not too expensive. After some time I found The Body Shop's latest release: The Oils Of Life range. I never ever tried oils on my face before, because I didn't want to end up with oily skin.. I know it sounds so stupid to me now, haha.
Having read amazing reviews I went to the closest shop and got myself the Facial Oil and the Intensely Revitalising Cream. I have used them for more than a year now and I am still so in love. My skin improved so much after only a couple of days so I haven't been using anything else since then. I have added a serum recently (the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum) but I am still sticking to this oil and cream. They also have brought out a night cream since then and I will maybe get it in the future aswell.
I use the cream in the morning and evening, but the oil only at night. I also have to say that I sometimes skipped the oil in the summer months but when it gets colder it is a must for me!
Do you have any products which have been using for ages and still love?

The oils sound so good.

TBS is such a classic.. but for a good reason :)

A few years ago I also thought using oils on my face would make my skin even oiler, but actually I do think that in the winter, nothing is more helpful than a good face oil :) I've heard good things about The Body Shop skincare products before, and with all you say about these and the fact that they're bringing out a night cream, I should probably try it out!
ReplyDeleteFor past year or so I've been using the Pixi Rose Oil blend every night, and I would highly recommend it - it works really well and lasts for ages!

I have struggled with my skin for a few years now and something seems to quite work for me. I have completely changed my diet (even cut out dairy at the beginning of this year) and it hasn't had an effect on my skin. I just recently purchased a face brush from Vanity Planet and I am soooo hoping that this will help. I will be posting about it on my blog when I have tried it for a minimum of one month but probably longer just to make sure! Lovely post!

I really need to add oils into my skin care routine as I still suffer with acne on my cheeks. I might give these a go.

Yes girl.. definitely try it!

The oil looks great! About a year ago I would have never dreamed of using oil on my skin as it's naturally quite oily but I am finding the oil is actually helping to hydrate my skin. Like you, I only use oil at night.

I've heard quite a lot about this range but still haven't tried it! I have combination skin so I get a bit worried it may make my skin too oily, but will have to give it a go and see how it goes xx

Yes girl that was me too. I was super worried my skin would get even more oily. But maybe just give it try?

That's exactly how I describe my skin...its perfect neither oily or dry but then suddenly in winter it starts behaving weirdly. I always take special care of my skin in winter ....I guess maybe I haven't found right products.
ReplyDeletewould like to try this as TBS is my favorite brand when it comes to bath and body products...in skincare tea tree range is my favorite.

I will try this range.. thanks lovely!

This oil looks amazing !

I have been using a multipurpose balm for a very long time and cannot get over it. IT is actually a romanian brand, Fares. Probably impossible to get it shipped elsewhere as it is only local. www.georgyana.me
