From hyaluronic acid to vitamin c, niacinamide, BHAs, AHAs and many many more, there are seemingly endless ‘active ingredients’ being touted around at the moment and you could end up buying and applying serum after serum after serum. 
So in this video I look at some of the skincare products that we could pretty much glaze over and just focus on effective ingredients, drawing thoughts from consultant dermatologist Dr Natalia Spierings shared in her book Skintelligent.

My favourite cleansing washes:
In the mornings I use COSRX Low-PH Good Morning Gel Cleanser https://go.shopmy.us/p-808707
In the evenings I alternate between good old gentle CeraVe foaming cleanser https://go.shopmy.us/p-910502 and Sand & Sky’s Australian Pink Clay Deep Pore Cleanser which also exfoliates https://go.shopmy.us/p-913140 and I have a 15% off discount code (CLARE15).
All are gentle but effective!

I use Geek & Gorgeous’s fabulous and low-cost C-Glow 15% vitamin C serum every morning https://go.shopmy.us/p-717360

For tretinoin I order from Dermatica, but Skin + Me is another great option.

My hero moisturizers that I’m trying out at the moment are Calecim’s multi-action cream with stem-cell derived growth factors (use code HONEST for 15% off) https://go.shopmy.us/p-654801
And Adipeau’s Active Face Cream designed to renew facial fat. You can use the code HONEST20FOR2 to get a 20% discount off first-time purchases when ordering two bottles and HONEST10 for 10% off single orders. https://adipeaucare.myshopify.com/products/active-face-cream

For sunscreen I use Paula’s Choice Youth-Extending Hydrating Fluid with SPF 50 https://go.shopmy.us/p-577589 It’s light, non-greasy and sits really well under make-up. 
I also like this Anessa Perfect UV Skincare Milk from Shiseido which is also a light and non-irritating option that offers strong protection https://go.shopmy.us/p-821369
