Beauty Must Haves | Olay Regenerist Cleansing System


Dear Beauties!


With all this makeup we really need to take care of our skin. Because a beautiful makeup look cannot be achieved if you dont have the perfect skin. I have always had clear & radiant skin but from all this makeup it started to act crazy. From last few months I was breaking out all over my face which never happened to me. My T-zones went super oily & undereye very dry that I couldn't apply anything not even the moisturizers. I have dry to combo skin.

I have been changing alot of products in my skin care routine & that's when I decided to pick this brush.  I was tempted to try a brush cleansing system but was not ready to splurge & pick Clarsonic.
And I'm happy that I didn't as this works just perfect for me. So Today I'm sharing my complete thoughts on this product. Interested? Then keep reading.



I picked mine from Whites Pharmacy in Salaam mall for around 135SAR, which is greater then spending 600-700+. It comes with a brush head, batteries & a sample sized cleanser. Separate brush heads are easily available in the markets for around 35SAR.

I first used mine for removing the makeup & I loved how it worked on my skin. It moves in circular motions yet very gentle on the skin which cleanses without over drying or harshly exfoliating. It did remove the makeup & left it very smooth. I used it in my night time routine with the Age-defying night cream & let me tell you the forehead wrinkle which I have been worried about has disappeared.



I use this once a week if I am not wearing too much of makeup on daily basis or twice a week if I have had heavy glam sessions for parties etc. I have seen a big difference on my skin, it feels smoother, clear & my breaking out also stopped. It also helped me with the flaking & dry patches issues.

I use it with the cleanser it came with, sometimes with my face wash or even sometimes I just put the scrub with microbeads on my face & use this to get rid of dead skin. Versatile, right?



Apart from being effective on skin this system is water proof which makes it even more easier to use it in the bath. The brush doesn't let the product out that means no dripping & it lasts for a really good time. I have been using it for good 2 months & its still looks new.

I have found my skin looking really radiant & clean since I started using it. I would never splurge & buy something when I am really happy with the results. So, if you were wondering if you should pick which one I guess I have given you a really thorough review. Save! for other stuff.



Have you tried it? What do you feel?

Skin Care Essential | Winter-proof Skin Care Routine

Dear Beauties!


When its cold in Middle East, we all know that things gotten really serious. And what happens when temperature take a nose dive? It effects our skin's moisture level. So we have to make sure that our skin care routine is winter-proof.

Use a gentle scrub, I know it sounds weird but trust me exfoliation helps your moisturizers work better. As our skin dries out & dead skin stops shedding, it keeps your moisturizer from fully sinking in. So use a mild scrub girl!

Some of us need richer moisturizers during winters, so upgrade your moisturizers. Your old moisturizer that worked really great for summers is not guaranteed to work for winters as well. Look for the products with Glycerin & Sorbitol in it but keep the SPF in your mind. I am loving my Boots Cucumber Whitening Moisturizing Day Cream for my days.

For nights I like to give my skin a lil extra care with my The Body Shop Overnight Vitamin E serum in Oil followed by Olay Age-Defying night cream for a radiant & youthful looking skin next morning.

I am hooked up on Neutrogena Deep Clean Gel Wash. I have been loving it so much, it cleanses my skin really well without drying it & my skin looks amazingly radiant.

Last but definitely not the least in my Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub to keep my pout soft & smooth.




What are you loving for your skin this winter? Let me know.
