THE ORDINARY NIACINAMIDE
I love love love skincare !!!
Just in case you didn’t get it, I love skincare !! lol
Quick back story to the old days of blogging; I struggled with acne back then, but I am glad to say it’s been over a year now of being acne-free. The repercussion of the experience meant that I pay more attention to my skin and what I eat. I spent a lot of money on various skincare products ( I have shared some of this on my YouTube channel); this is how my obsession with skincare products started.
If I had a choice between buying the most expensive dress or the most expensive skincare product. I am most likely going for the skincare product.
Nonetheless, I do not believe skincare has to be expensive to work; the ordinary skincare brand was one brand that made that belief happened. I first discovered the ordinary brand years ago when I was struggling with acne. I tried many of their products as they are affordable and works too. Ever since my acne disappeared, I have stopped using the products. I still have two almost full bottles of the salicylic acid and acid peeling solution.
Since my acne was over, I have focused on clearing the scars and working towards more glowing skin. Many of the products I currently use are mainly exfoliating products, skin brightening serums, hyaluronic acid e.t.c.
Recently I added the ordinary niacinamide to my collection. I have used the product before, however, as I was trying many products out of desperation to get rid of my acne, I could not tell what was working or was not. Now I am more intentional and focused so I can see the difference.
Niacinamide is great for hyperpigmentation, acne treatment, minimizing pore appearance and many more.
Skincare routine;
I have never had a skincare routine. I never liked sticking to any routine before best believe now that I don’t play with my skincare routine. All thanks to my acne experience, so in a way, I am grateful for that experience.
I keep my skincare routine very simple, making it easier to maintain.
Nighttime routine;
My nighttime skincare routine is my favourite thing to do at night before bed. It’s my favourite me-time. I may skim over my morning skincare routine; my nighttime routine is vital. Mind you, this also involves things I do apart from skincare. I will share it with you all one day (maybe in a youtube video).
These are all the skincare products I am currently loving. I will be talking more about each one in a later blog.
