Garnier Moisture Bomb Tissue Mask

Last weekend my mum and I decided to have a bit of a girly night as we had the house to ourselves. We bought a takeaway, lots of goodies and some pamper bits. We picked up two of the Garnier Moisture Bomb Tissue Masks and I wanted to share my thoughts on them with you. 

Normally I tend to prefer non-sheet masks but we decided to try these out anyway. We got ours from Boots for £1 each, normally they are £1.50 each. 

The instructions on the back suggest that you apple the mask to a freshly cleansed face. I used my Garnier 3 in 1 wash because I like to use matching products but I don't really think it matters what cleanser you use. 

When I first took the mask out of the packet it was a little slimier than I had anticipated and was quite fiddly as I was afraid of tearing the sheet when trying to unfold it. Like all sheet masks I have tried this one didn't fit my face at all so I had to line my eyes up and then squish the rest of the sheet onto my face which I think worked fine although it looked significantly scarier than a normal mask. This made it hard to try and keep a straight face as we were both laughing at each other.

I left the mask on my skin for the recommended 15 minutes and then I peeled it off. I must add that peeling this mask was oddly satisfying. When you peel off the mask some of the cream is left over, the instructions say that you can either wipe the excess off with a cotton pad or you can massage it in as you would with a normal moisturiser. I chose to rub the excess into my skin which left my face feeling quite sticky for a while. This however eventually went away and left my face feelings soft after about 10 minutes.

Although there were no dramatic differences my face did feel quite soft and re-hydrated after using the mask. I have already purchased another mask to use next time I feel like a pamper night.

I hope you enjoyed reading this post and as ever a follow would be greatly appreciated!

My Skincare Routine

I have always had sensitive skin which meant that I have to be careful what I use on my face. From about the age of 13 I have been struggling with acne, although it has calmed down a lot now that I am getting older a lot of the scars remain on my skin which causes me to feel very self-conscious. I wear foundation almost everyday which means that is is important that I take care of my skin.

In this post I will be sharing with you my skincare routine.

Although I am not the most disciplined when it comes to skincare in the evening after a long day, I do try my best to stick to my routine.

For taking off my makeup at the end of the day I use the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water on a cotton pad. I find that this product removes all of my makeup effortlessly including eye makeup and leaves my face feeling clean. If I were having a lazy day I would be able to skip the next step.

To wash and exfoliate my skin I use the Garnier Pure Active 3-in-1 Wash, Scrub & Mask. For everyday use I use the product as a face wash but if I have a little more time I use the product as a mask by putting a layer on my skin and leave it on for a couple of minutes. I then scrub the product into my face before rinsing the product off.

I don't do this every time but after I've washed my face I use the Simple Kind to Skin Pore Minimising Toning Cleanser. I use this in the hope that it will make the pores I have on my skin less noticeable but because I don't use it everyday I haven't really noticed any changes unfortunately.

For moisturiser I use the Simple Kind to Skin Replenishing Rich Moisturiser at night because I prefer the thicker consistency before bed, also because it has the word replenishing in the name it sounds like it does more for your skin. In the morning however I use the Simple Hydrating Light Moisturiser instead as I feel that it absorbs quicker and helps my makeup apply smoother.

I also use the Simple Kind to Eyes Soothing Eye Balm. The product has a cooling effect that instantly makes my eyes feel more awake and less puffy which is great for early mornings. I use this day and night.

I also keep my Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes in my box but those are mostly reserved for very lazy nights where I cannot be bothered to take my makeup off properly.

I hope you enjoyed this post and as always, a follow would be greatly appreciated.
