Products that I have *actually* repurchased
Certain Skincare products are must-have for me! |
I thought I would compile a list of makeup & skincare products I have *actually* repurchased when the first tube ran out. I'll do skincare in this post first. Makeup follows later in the week.
1. Biotique Morning Nectar: My 3rd bottle. I always have this with me. Works like a charm on me, when I get sunburnt or dehydrated. It is also very good as a cleanser in a hurry..
2. Himalaya Gentle Exfoliating facewash: While I generally don't use foaming cleansers on my skin, even though it is combination, I use only this cleanser when I have to use one.
3. Lakme Strawberry Facewash: Yes, I know what you are thinking. When I don't use foaming face washes, what are two doing on this list. I use this as a body wash, after gym, in the evening after office. Two reasons: One, it smells very nice & citrusy, very refreshing in the summer, secondly & this is actually the important one: it tingles and delivers a very nice cooling sensation when it is rinsed off. No other body wash does this, and during summers I need that *tingle*.. hehehe.
4. Jergens Face Cream: Takes off even the most teflon coated mascara with minimum of fuss. Just apply and leave on for 30 seconds. Wipe off. No more tears, no more broken lashes.
5. The Body Shop Face Buffer: I use it every alternate day with a bit of water - just a gentle massage in the morning. I honestly think a good exfoliation routine with a good anti-oxidant protection cream is the backbone of good skin.
6. The Body Shop Vitamin E Night Cream: I'm a believer. I thought this was over hyped. Till I tried it. I haven't reviewed this yet. But I'm on my 2nd tub.
So those are my products I would replenish in a heart beat should they ever run out. Btw I'm sorry for being AWOL. I suddenly had to travel quite a bit for office work.
So what are the products you always repurchase?
nice post!Very true it is not always that we repurchase products cause there is always something new we want to try!!
ReplyDeleteProducts I have repurchased are mainly my moisturizers,face products like msfs,tinted moisturizers and face wash..
I know!! With so many new launches all the time, can we be faulted for being so fickle?? :D
Deletelol you're so right! There are not many products I repurchase again and again apart from shampoos/conditioners and deos...I think the only one that I cant live without if my No.7 face moisturiser which I've been using for about 10 years! lol omg that makes me sound old...Im only 27! lol
ReplyDeleteThere is always so much to try out! :D.. I have heard quite a few praises of the No 7 line so I'm not surprised you like it so much! :)
DeleteMe too very rarely re-purchase any product... I would look forward to your review on Vitamin E night cream, I am running out of my current one <3
ReplyDeleteI have I used to use the body shop's Vitamin E night cream and I loved it as well. Bought it 2 times as well. Planning to purchase it again later ^_^. By the way, great idea with the Lakme Strawberry wash as a body wash! ^_^

I use the Biotique cucumber toner and it takes out dirt which nothing else does and I thought I was the only one who had the brilliant idea of using facewash as body wash:P

ReplyDeleteRegarding TBS Vitamin E eye-cream - it did not work out for me :( I thought I loved it when I first bought it, but its not true :P I would love to read your detailed thoughts on it - the thing is I have dark circles and it was too light for me.
