My Favourite Natural Skin Care Products!

For the past few years I have been struggling with problematic skin which I have decided to try and combat using natural products only! These products are what I've found work for my skin type (which changes daily, sometimes oily, sometimes dry!)

I use these products along side trying to eat a balanced diet and reducing my sugar intake, but sometimes acne breakouts are inevitable due to hormones so these products helps to calm the skin down when you're having bad skin and help prevent them.

Please make sure you do your own research if you're considering trying any of these products out as some can be strong on the skin!

1. Coconut Oil

This is the best skin care product of all, my holy grail! Coconut oil can be used for many things, such as teeth whitening, hair masks, and as a body moisturizer. Personally, I use this as a moisturizer/primer before I put my make up on everyday! It helps the make-up glide on and also gives you a really fresh and dewy look, as well as intensely moisturizing your skin and helping combat any blemishes

Since using coconut oil for about a year and a half, I have noticed that my skin is looking healthy and hydrated! I wouldn't go a day without it! This product is one of the most expensive yet so so so worth it. I buy my 500g pot from my local supermarket for £8.

2. Apple Cider Vinegar

This stuff is absolutely brilliant for when you're having a bad break out, although beware and do your research because it is strong! Apple cider vinegar with "the mother" dissolves dead skin cells and helps give your skin a good intense clean whilst also fading scars and giving your skin a healthy shine. I only use this when my skin is bad just to help clear up the acne but I recommend using it for a month straight to get your skin used to it. All you need to do is dilute it by adding water and then wipe around your face with a cotton pad. You must make sure you buy an organic unpasteurized brand with "the mother" in it which means it has a lot of good bacteria in it to help fight the acne. This has helped clear up my under the skin bumps on my forehead and also has reduced the size of my pores! This 1litre bottle cost me £4 from amazon but will probably last me forever!

3. Avocado Oil

This was such a random buy, but I saw it in the supermarket a few months ago and decided to use it to take off my make-up and it is INSANE! I couldn't believe how well it took off my mascara and foundation and it is super easy to just smother on your face and then wash off with water. It leaves your face feeling so so soft and silky and completely make-up free. This brand in my local supermarket was £2.50 and has lasted me about 6 months so would totally recommend!

4. Break-Out Kefir Lotion

This is my most recent product to try, but I have already seen amazing results. It has completely cleared up my blackheads around my nose and chin and it really does leave your skin looking amazing! This product has tea tree oil, thyme and raw goats milk which has lots of antibacterial properties. My skin really does look blemish free without make up which I'm rather pleased about! This was £8.25 from www.chucklinggoat.co.uk
