MY WEEKLY SKIN CARE ROUTINE-MY HOME SPA REGIMEN

A great skin is a must especially on those days when I am too lazy to slap on any more makeup other than a lipstick and a dusting of powder!
this post is about my once weekly skin care routine as I have shared my daily routine in a previous post.



CLEANSER
I routinely use the forever living aloe purifying cleanser, which is cream based (non-soapy). I apply this after washing my face as I would have done in my daily routine.

I also use the Avon blemish 3-in-1 cleanser scrub and mask, on days when I have had a lot of makeup on. It is cream based I apply and rub gently to remove any last traces of dirt or makeup. 


EXFOLIATING
The forever living Aloe Deep Cleansing exfoliator is my go to exfoliator with oatmeal granules in a creamy base. It is a gentle scrub with no harsh particles that can tear or hurt the skin while at the same time lifting off dead cells and leaving my skin soft- love it! I apply on a damp face and gently swirl around on my face avoiding my delicate eye area, then wash off with warm water. I would recommend this if you have sensitive skin prone to break outs or one with lots of acne as the particles are gentle and harsher scrubs may break open the acne and worsen it.
 FACE MASK
next I apply the Avon olive oil mask in a thin film across my face sparing my eyes brows and lips and wait for 20 mins before rinsing off with tepid water. Its helps to restore moisture to my skin leaving it well hydrated.


SUGAR SCRUB
I use this for my lips because I tend to have very dry lips that peel easily and lip scrubs are not readily available so I reach for my home made olive oil and sugar scrub which I apply on my lips and rub lightly for a few seconds then rinse off after which I apply lip balm.The olive oil serves as a carrying medium for the sugar all the while moisturising as I exfoliate.I sometimes scoop out some and use to scrub my elbows and knees to remove dead skin.

FOOT CARE
I gently rub the pedi set across the sole of my foot . this comes after week long application of the Avon foot works foot cream that also contains alpha-hydroxy acids in an emollient base. Alpha-hydroxy acids help to slough off dead cells and aid skin renewal.




 I love my weekly routine, but whenever I have the time I like to visit a great spa and be pampered! I need some good places to try out,any suggestions?
