Skin, hair and nail favorites of 2014

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my favorite skincare, haircare and nail products of 2014.

Makeup removers: 

Dior Instant cleansing water: This is my first cleansing water and it smells lovely. It works really well and I re-discovered it this year. I am almost out of it now.

Estee Lauder gentle eye makeup remover: I got this in a gift set from Estee Lauder and started using this last year. It is very gentle and I am a contact lens wearer. It removes my waterproof mascara well.

Yes to cucumbers facial wipes: When I travel, I like to take these wipes with me. They are very gentle and remove everything properly. 

Cleansers:

Murad daily cleansing foam: This is my morning cleanser, works to remove any oil and keeps me refreshed.

Mychelle fruit enzyme cleanser: This is an organic brand, sulfate free and I wanted to try it and picked up the travel size. I love this, it's very gentle and cleans my skin very well.

Eye creams:

Origins Ginzing: This one is for daytime, very light and has a tint to it thats very brightening. 

Estee Lauder Advanced night repair eye: My favorite eye cream of all time, whenever I go back to this, my eye area feels vey hydrated and refreshed and my dark circles get lighter.

Toners:

Rosewater: Any brand would work, but I like this one from Whole foods market. I just spray this after cleansing in the mornings and it refreshes my skin.

Peter Thomas Roth Max complexion correction pads: I use one pad in the night after cleansing. It's very potent and works really well to keep my skin clear of future breakouts.

Serums:

Ole Henriksen truth serum: This is my morning serum, very light and gives a very healthy appearance to the skin. Sometimes I use it in the night time too.

Kiehl's Clearly Corrective dark spot solution: I am using this to lighten my dark spots and this serum really works! I noticed a significant difference and I am almost out of it now :(

Moisturisers:

Estee Lauder Clear difference oil-control hydrator: This leave a nice matte finish to the skin and I love using this in the day time.

Ole Henriksen sheer transformation: My recent favorites, this night cream is very light weight, doesn't make me oily and hydrates very well.

Sunscreen:

Loreal silky sheer face lotion 50+: This is a very light weight lotion which is why I like it so much. 

Mask for acne:

Lush mask of magnaminty: This mask has really good ingredients and I use this whenever I have any new breakouts.

Acne treatment:

Kate Somerville DermalQuench Clear anti-acne treatment: This has 2% salicylic acid and I use this where I have breakouts.

Scrubs:

St.Ives even and bright scrub: This is a daily scrub and very gentle. I use it around 3 times a week and whenever I feels like my skin needs to.

Kiehl's pineapple papaya facial scrub: This is my favorite this year and feels very nice to use it. No gritty particles and I use it twice a week.

Ecotools konjac sponge: I started to use these when they first launched. I use this along with my night cleanser and is very gentle compared to cleansing brushes.

Hair care:

Aveda scalp benefits shampoo: I love Aveda's hair products and this one's my favorite. It balances my hair's oil production and keeps them healthy.

OGX macadamia oil conditioner: This is the conditioner I have been using for the most part recently and it works really well. Doesn't weigh my hair down.

Chi keratin silk infusion: This is my favorite leave-in treatment at the moment. Leaves my hair smooth and doesn't look weighed down.

Nails:
