Simple, easy, and cheap skincare

Makeup remover - byoma melting balm cleanser - cerave hydrating cleanser Moisturiser - Nivea creme lazy day - bioderma sensibio H2O I used to be a full skincare girly, and then my skin got really bad and I read a lot about the skincare industry and how insidious and awful it is. Now I essentially just use 4 things. A cleanser, I use cerave hydrating cleanser. And a moisturiser, in my opinion the more simple the better. My favourite is the embryolisse lait creme, but it’s a lil spenny so I mostly use Nivea soft, which I find to be really similar and costs like £2. the third thing is an oil based cleansing balm for makeup removal. atm I use Bioma, which is the affordable replacement for the very expensive Clinique cleansing balm. I also use an spf (but controversially only when it’s sunny as I live in the U.K. and we have a much bigger vitamin d deficiency problem than we do a skin damage one). Unfortunately I’ve never found a face suncream that isn’t expensive, so atm I use laroche possay, but it lasts me ages cause there isn’t much sun here. for ease and laziness I also use bioderma micellar water for days when Im too tired to wash my face or I’m taking off makeup on the go. I have mostly dry/combo and a little sensitive skin, but this routine will work for any skin type (might need a lighter moisturiser if oily). In the U.K. to but this entire routine with full size bottles would cost around £37, and my skin is infinitely better than it was when I was using elaborate and expensive skin care routines!

my skincare routine.

Happily divulging my skincare routine for those who've asked. I'm not a gatekeeper but I am more inclined to share recs on an app that won't cause a ripple in the supply chain. 1. [Vanicream Unscented Gentle Facial Cleanser] $10 Tried and true. Plain and simple. Gets the job done. No further questions your honor. 2. [Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant] $35 2x/week (Fall Winter) Sometimes, the internet is correct. Use it at night, wake up with better skin. I don’t make the rules. 3. [Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 OG 1970] $88 2x/week (Spring Summer) I don't have concrete evidence (just the oil on my skin) to back this up, but I believe my skin thickens during the summer. Feels like I need something heftier than the PC. Enter P50. Reminder, I'm not a doctor, nurse, teacher, your mother, an esthetician, a makeup artist, or a babysitter. This is just what works for me. Moving on! 4. [Dieux Skin Instant Angel Moisturizer] $45 I can’t explain how nice this is so I won’t attempt to. (See Justin Bieber, Angels Speak.)

Study hall created by Hank Green, the crash course folks and ASU…. only $25 per course ($400 if you want the actual credit) so you can try college classes without the commitment! I am taking the intro to programming class and it’s so good! It’s like a trial but for college 💕
