Review: The Body Shop Vitamin E Facial Oil

Hello Everyone :)

I went shopping a few weeks ago and ended up in the Body Shop as per usual, and I ended up purchasing quite a few bits and pieces. One of the items was the Vitamin E facial oil. Im a big fan of the Vitamin E range, I tend to use the BB cream and the moisturisers from the range and so I  decided to try something new, so I picked this out...

Vitamin E Facial Oil - £11

As i've mentioned a few times throughout my blog, my skin tends to get extremely dry throughout the colder months so its SO important for me to have a good skin care routine during the colder months. Usually my skin would be really dry by now, but it isn't, so I reckon, this Vitamin E facial oil is helping my skin. Normally I would take my make-up off with a face wash and whack a load of moisturiser on and massage it into my skin. Now I do exactly the same but I use this before I apply my moisturiser.

Where this product is an oil I would only ever use it at night in order for it to sink into my skin, and I wouldn't be too keen putting it on in the morning before doing my make-up ect as I would find it too greasy. The oil is a pipet application which makes it easy too apply. When I use it, I use two drops on each side of my face and then rub it in around the rest of my face.

When I first got this product I wasn't too sure about it as I hadn't really noticed it before, however, I am so glad I did decide to purchase it. If you do suffer from dry skin then I would definitely recommend to purchase it and give it a go as I do believe my skin has benefited from this. 

Are there any products in the Body Shop you would recommend? What are you loving at the moment?

Clarins - My life saviour!

Since a young age, I've always suffered with dry skin. During my childhood I had really bad eczema and dry skin too. As I reached my teenage years it became more of a problem to me as I started to get paranoid about it and wanted to get rid of it & no matter what I tried nothing EVER seemed to work, it always worked to a certain extent and then tablets, creams ect wouldn't do anything. Luckily i've seemed to of grow out of it, but sometimes when I'm stressed or upset I will get it back a bit, I tend to get really bad skin during the colder months too & we get a lot of them in England. 

Clarins HydraQuench Cream normal to dry skin - £34

Clarins HyydraQuench Intensive Serum - £48 ( for a big bottle)

Clarins moisture rich body lotion for dry skin - £30

I've been using these products for about 2 years now. Since i've been at uni I haven't been one for using expensive products, but I find if I don't then my skin will always be dry. Luckily I don't get spots & oily skin so Im lucky in that respect. When my skin is very dry I use the intensive serum and then I apply the cream afterwards. When my skin is good ( like it is now) I use the body lotion on my face and all over my body after a shower ect. If it wasn't for these products I don't know what I would do, so if you suffer with dry skin I would definitely recommend these products to you. 

Do you suffer from dry skin? - If you do what do you find works for you?
