Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Peel Off Face Mask

I am recently loving sticking a face mask on with some music and a good book and have a good old relax. So I've been testing out quite a lot of face masks over the last few weeks to find the perfect one and this one is definitely up there with the best. 

The bottle claims that it deep cleans and tightens pores and helps remove blackheads which it really does. This is one of the few face masks were I feel my skin is noticeably cleaner after I've removed it. Peel off masks are definitely the best type of face mask they are just so fun to remove and you know when you've had it on long enough. I also definitely prefer face masks in a bottle/tub as I feel when using the sachets that I only use about three quarters and the rest goes to waste, so these are perfect. This bottle is 50ml so that's around 5-7 uses, but I've had this a while and it's still going strong. I picked this up on offer for around £2 about a month ago, it is now £2.99, here. 

Have you tried the tea tree and witch hazel range? 

Can anyone recommend any face masks for me to try?

My Skincare Routine

Ever since I was young I've suffered from acne, after trying every over-the-counter products possible and a number of prescription products from my doctors, about a year ago the nurse put me on the pill and ever since then my skin has begun, admitted slowly, to clear.

I have never been one to stick to a skin care routine, either products tend to make my skin worse or I forget after a few weeks, but recently I decided I needed a better skin care routine if I wanted to keep my skin under control. So a few months ago whilst Superdrug was having a sale on skincare and free delivery I ordered a few products that seemed to fit my skin type. And I've picked up (or found hidden in my room) a few more products, and have been able to continue a fairly consistent skincare routine.

The products (L-R):

1. Simple Radiance Brightening Eye Cream 

For as long as I can remember I have suffered from quite dark circles under my eyes, despite the right amount of sleep and drinking alot of water, I've been on the look out for an eye cream - after seeing this in my local tesco for £1.74 I couldn't resist, especially once I got home and discovered the £7.99 price tag on Boots. I tend to only use this on a night as I rarely have alot of time on a morning and this takes a short while to soak in.

2. Nivea Daily Essentials Oil Free Moisturising Day Cream 

After using a simple moisturiser for quite a while, here, I switched to this nivea moisturiser on recommendation from my nurse who said it would help get rid of acne scarring, which is starting to lightly develop since my skin has been clearing. I haven't noticed any immediately effects but it moisturisers my skin very well. I don't have any problems with the simple moisturiser and still use it from time to time. I use this at least twice a day; morning and night.

3. Garnier Clean and Soft Complete Cleansing Milk 

This is a great cleanser it has rose extracts so smells lush and makes my skin feel really clean and moisturised. I don't tend to use moisturiser after using this unless I'm putting make up on afterwards. I use this on a morning to clean my skin from the night before and then on a night to remove makeup. This is a very gentle cleanser and can remove eye make up easily without any irritation, which is always a positive for me as it means less products to carry back and forth from uni.

4. Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Peel Off Face Mask

I love this face mask, you can buy it in sachets or a small tube. It leaves my skin feeling really soft and refreshing. I tend to use this once or twice a month when I have time, which is generally only when I go home for weekends, to give it a good deeper clean.

I also use the Soap and Glory Scrub Your Nose In It Face Scrub and Mask to also give a good deep clean but it is too harsh for my skin to use it more often than once or twice a month.
