Welcome everyone! The wait for beauty life hacks is finally over, this post is all about my latest obsession, skincare! Skincare has lost the charm it had before but I am here to revive the long lost love of taking care of your skin. I promise I won't tell you to go to Manhattan, New York to get a caviar facial but if you have $275 in your pocket and a lot of free time then you should definitely try it once in a lifetime. To start this enchanting blog post, lets begin my experience with skincare.

Lets just say that my experience with skincare hasn't been the best from the beginning, I could not afford all the Body Shop products and Drunk Elephant products at that time so I decided to try out a DIY Skincare regime. I mixed equal parts of coffee and honey together, unfortunately, I applied it 4 times a day! My face got all red and swollen, there was an allergy all over my face! Everybody in my family got life sickeningly afraid that it was acne and bought me all these Body Shop products from their Vitamin E range. I must admit that the Body Shop Vitamin E Face Wash cleared up my face so please try it out when you have time! The cleanser would burn my skin so no room for that in your lives! Over that time span, I have learned a ton of things about how to care for your skin. Plus, I have bought a ton of Clinique products that are bomb! It might seem that I have little or no experience with skincare but believe me, I have made a Rs. 375 Clean and Clear Face Wash make my skin clear so you can sip your tea while you read.

Now, let me come to a few products that can help your oily and shiny skin, Bioderma's sebum clearing face wash is bae for you when you have oily skin but don't worry too much that it will cause breakouts, it's perfect and my whole family uses it so I speak with experience. Olay's moisturizing gel is perfect for your skin in that sense. For all the money spending people, try Tatcha's Satin Skin Mist. Tatcha has already paved its way into skincare for Jeffree Star but hey, you can save up some money for 6 weeks like $10 a week.

So treatable, sensitive skin. Lets all give a round of applause for my sisters with sensitive skin. Nothing works for sensitive skin but you know that God gave you the skin of a gentle angel. Clinique is perfect for you, just go and fill your cart with Clinique. Make sure the products say "Fragrance Free" and "Allergy Tested." The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Wash is my experience tested and it works too. Just be really careful when you pick up a product, you can even choose from Mario Badescu's sensitive skincare range.

Dry skin is really easy in my opinion to treat. two things "Heavy Moisturisation" and "Too much lotion." Cetaphil's lotions will do wonders for you and Aveeno Dermexa Emollient Cream is amazing too. I personally have not dealt with dry skin but I do have an uneven skin texture for which you have to exfoliate. Try using chemical exfoliators more, never us the St. Ives Apricot Scrub. Fresh skincare is really good for you too. Enchanteur lotions are really good too.

A few bonus points, Drunk Elephant and Kiehl's are really good skinncare companies too. Hey, just watch a Michelle Phan video and you will get to know things ahead of your time. Michelle uses the Then I Met You Living Cleansing Balm to melt her makeup base so why don't you all try it too! Otherwise Bioderma and Garnier's Micellar Water are good for removing your makeup too. Next time, I will discuss combination skin, AHA toners, Elizabeth Arden skincare and analysing a bit of Kourtney Kardashian's skincare. Until next time, this is me Beenish Saeed signing off.
