sk:n.

Now that my skin is starting to actually calm the heck down, I'm more inclined to try out different products. I used to have skin that would break out in spots over the tiniest little change, but now - whether it's due to diet, my Clarisonic, or just being a little older - I can use different brands' cleansers and moisturiser without too much fear of that happening.

Despite my skin behaving a little better these days, I still make sure I use products which are suitable for sensitive skin. I've had reactions in the past that have left me with a red, itchy rash on my face, and I like to try to avoid that, funnily enough! 

All of sk:n clinic's cleansers, moisturisers and serums are meant to be fine for sensitive skin, so I gave four of them a go! Here's how I got on..

CLEANSE.

I used this along with my Clarisonic and thought it was lovely. It left my skin feeling soft, clean, and not dried out. I absolutely love that it has Evening Primrose Oil in it, as I know that it's amazing for skin!

CORRECTIVE.

To be honest, I don't get a lot of redness on my face, but as my skin tone is quite yellow any time I do get a bit red & blotchy, it really shows up. I found this was great when I had one of those sore spots underneath the skin which made the area all red, and also on my cheeks after being outside in the cold! 

AGE-DEFYING.

I always think, "I'm waaay too young to be using anti-ageing creams!" but, at 27 this is probably a great time to start! I've only got a few very fine lines around my eyes (from smiling so much, probably!) and I don't mind them, but I don't want them to get any deeper yet! This is a lovely moisturising cream, and you only need a tiny bit. I'm sure it's made my dark circles less visible, and it's definitely made my concealer go on much smoother! 

ANTI-BLEMISH.

This is the only product out of the four that I didn't really like. There are a couple of areas of my face which are more prone to spots than others, and when I applied this to those areas, I actually got more spots. Admittedly, I've only used it the once, and other factors could have been involved, but I'm a bit wary to test it again! 

It does contain salicylic acid, which is also in one of my other favourite cleansers and leaves my skin super clear - so I will test it again at a later date to give it a fairer trial!
