    Today I want to share my favorite skin care products specifically for the face. I’m very picky about what I put on my face and I always read the labels before purchasing. Knowing that chemicals absorbed through the skin can effect the whole body, it’s all the more important to stay clear of harsh chemicals. These are all products that I have purchased myself and that I use on a daily basis. 

    My skin type

    I have a pretty balanced skin, not too dry not too oily. My nose and forehead can get a bit shiny during the day, nothing too bad though. I usually get one or two breakouts during pms. Other than that my face stays clear.

    1. Burt’s Bees Facial Cleanser with Cotton Extract (€ 14,95)

    What it is:

    A gentle oil based cleanser that comes out more or less in a solid state but liquefies through the warmth of your skin. It removes excess sebum, make up residue and sweat without drying out the skin. It’s fragrance free, hypoallergenic, allergy tested, non-comedogenic and dermatologically tested.

    Why I love it:

    As the product promises it really does gently cleanse the face without drying it out. Before using this facial cleanser I used one from Korres that dried out my face when using it long term. My face would always feel squeaky clean, as though it was stripped from ALL its natural oils. This doesn’t do that.

    Ingredients:

    Aqua (Water), Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Glycerin, Cetyl Alcohol, Cera Alba (White Beeswax), Sucrose Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Gossypium Herbaceum (Cotton) Flower Extract, Oryza Sativa (Rice) Extract, Beet (Beta Vulgaris) Root Extract, Quillaja Saponaria Bark Extract, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Yucca Schidigera Leaf/Root/Stem Extract, Artemisia Umbelliformis Extract, Euphrasia Officinalis Extract, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel), Water, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugar Cane), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Silica, Sucrose, Fructose, Glucose, Coco-Glucoside, Inositol, Maltodextrin, Citric Acid, Benzoic Acid, Trehalose, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, CI 77947 (Zinc Oxide), Alcohol Denat., Phenoxyethanol

    *Tip:

    Before going in with this cleanser I remove my make up with a microfiber cloth.

    1. Cattier Paris Gommage Argile (€ 7,99)

    What it is:

    A gentle face peeling with healing clay and aloe vera suited for all skin types. It contains small specs of apricot seeds that gently remove dead skin. (No micro plastic!) Its organic and has the ECOCERT label.

    Why I love it:

    Its great at removing dead skin without being too harsh on the face. Some peelings are just too rough for the delicate face skin and can even damage your skin. This does what its supposed to without going overboard.

    Ingredients:

    Lavandula Angustifolia Extract, Aqua, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Glycerin, Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil, Decyl Glucoside, Titanium Dioxide, Bambusa Arundinacea Stem Extract, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Glucoside, Xanthan Gum, Benzyl Alcohol, Sodium Benzoate, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Mentha Piperita Oil, Lactic Acid.

    What it is:

    An organic, fair trade, vegan face cream with jojoba oil, hyaluronic acid and aloe vera. This is hands down the best day face cream that I have ever used. It absorbs into your skin within seconds and is the perfect base before putting on make up. It is fragrance free and protects the skin’s natural moisture barrier.

    Why I love it:

    Plainly put, it’s everything I want in a day face cream. It’s super lightweight but still hydrating and feels great on the skin. It never leaves my face feeling tacky or shiny. Because it absorbs so quickly its great for applying before make up.

    Ingredients:

    Aqua (Water), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil, Glycine Soja Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Stearate Citrate, Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Xanthan Gum, Glyceryl Caprylate, Cetyl Alcohol, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil (Sunflower), Sodium Levulinate, Sodium Anisate, Sodium Phytate, Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract, Alcohol (< 0,1 %)

    *Tip:

    If you have very dry skin this might not be hydrating enough for you.

    1. Kneip Almond Blossom Face Cream (€7,50)

    What it is:

    A rich and intensive hydrating face cream suited for dry and sensitive skin. It’s made without conservatives, paraffin, silicon or mineral oil. It is dermatologically tested. It’s incredibly hydrating as it contains a blend of oils such as almond oil, shea butter, vitamin A and E as well as panthenol.

    Why I love it:

    While I do not use this as a day cream (it’s too heavy for during the day) I love using this in my night time routine. I add a generous amount of it on my face and massage it in. The next morning I wake up with hydrated, soft and healthy skin.

    Ingredients:

    Aqua (Water), Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Glycerin, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Olivate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Sorbitan Olivate, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Panthenol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Candelilla Cera, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Phytosterols, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Flower Extract, Retinyl Palmitate, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil, Pogostemon Cablin Oil, Bulnesia Sarmientoi Extract (Guaiacwood Oil), Limonene, Linalool, Coumarin, Citronellol, Geraniol, p-Anisic- Acid, Parfum (Fragrance), Helianthus Annuus Hybrid Oil, Caprylyl Glycol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Arginine, Tocopherol.

    Tip:

    Because this doesn’t contain any preservatives, the shelf life is relatively short (3 months!). Also keep in mind to wash and dry your hands before applying this to prevent bacteria growth inside the bottle.
