Step-by-Step Evening Skincare Routine for Entire Week

Hello again, 

When I decided that I really needed to up my skincare game, I was a little clueless as to what exactly I should be doing. I did a little looking around the internet but couldn't find that one place where everything was put together for me in a step-by-step way with a little reason for each. After much reading and investigating, I put together the below for me to follow on a weekly basis to ensure I'm getting all the right stuff on my face at the right time.

nB. I am absolutely, definitely not a skincare expert but the routine I have seems to be working for me and it's simple enough that I can understand.

Day 1

Cleanse

For this I feel I have many, many options and I'm a lover of the thick balms and creams. Either; the Eve Lom balm, Emma Hardie balm, nSpa Hot Cloth Polish or the Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser.

Lip Scrub

I give my lips a little love with Lush's lip scrub in Mint Julips

Toner

I switch between the Benefit Moisture Prep Toner and the Nivea Daily Essentials Toner  (which scent holds a special place in my heart) 

Serum

I have been sampling both the YSL Forever Youth Liberator Concentrated Serum and the Odacite Pure Elements Wild Carrot Serum But I am still on the look out for an awesome colour correcting serum. Any suggestions?

Moisturiser

I am using the luxuriously thick Omorovicza Rejuvenating Night Cream

Eye Cream

I'm sampling the Natio Ageless Brightening Eye Cream but I am desperate to find a good eye cream to remove those horrible dark circles and discoloured eye lids I have

Day 2

Cleanse
Exfoliant

My top pick for this is the Alpha H Liquid Gold which doesn't require any steps afterwards

Day 3

Cleanse
Mask

For this I'm into either the Body Shop's Honey and Oat Mask (for deep clean) or Asda's nSpa 5 Minute Magic Mask (for brightening) or the Oskia Renaissance Mask although I'm not too keen on the smell with this one

2nd Cleanse

For this I use a Micellar Water like this Loreal one

Lip Scrub

Moisturiser
