Top 3 Luxury Moisturisers for Combination Skin 2016

Having combination skin can be awkward to say the least...one day your face is oily, the next dry, or even worse...the two at once. Finding the right products to combat this up and down oiliness can be a challenge, but luckily for you I have tested the best moisturisers out there and have some recommendations for you!

Here are the top 3 moisturisers for combination skin in 2016...

1. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel

Notice the word "gel" instead of "cream", this means

that this product is lightweight and oil free while still

being generously hydrating - perfect for combination

skin types.  Enables a matte finish without

compromising on hydrating which is great for

immediate makeup application afterwards.

Dramatically Different lives up to the Clinique name -

promising quality and expertise from years and years

of practise.

2. Dermalogica Active Moist Lotion

Priding themselves on a range of high quality

natural products, Dermalogica only use natural

ingredients to achieve optimal results. This Active

Moist Lotion is no different - featuring lemon,

cucumber, and burdock to create a caring and fuss-

free option for those with combination skin. This

smart lotion works to hydrate the skin while

making sure that the skin's natural oil balance is

kept in check. Ideal for sensitive skin types.

3. Sakare Hydrating Mineral Complex Moisturiser

 "A beautifully light yet potent skin hydrator, which can be used day or night to lock in moisture and also provides anti-ageing benefits" - Sakare Website

This product is extra smart - it utilises red algae 

in order to enhance the skin's natural ability to 

retain moisture, rather than simply overloading

your skin with more than it can handle. In turn, 

this means that your skin is left ultra hydrated, 

but without any excess oiliness. Genius. As if that wasn't enough, this product is also enriched with 

strong anti-ageing elements that will give skin of any age a youthful glow.

Best Product for Gentle Make-Up Removal (Sakare Calming Milk Cleanser)

The name says it all...Calming Milk Cleanser. And calming it certainly is.

If your nightly make-up removal ritual is to rub a cleansing wipe over your face until it feels clean and then head straight to bed then you should reconsider! Face wipes are not only full of chemicals and other nasty stuff that you don't want to be rubbing into your pores but are also extremely dehydrating. Studies have shown that they don't actually fully remove all traces of make up but just spread them all over your face. Sleeping with traces of make up on your face can lead to irritation, dehydration, and even blemish outbreaks. The rubbing action which is required when using these wipes for make up removal can also be damaging to skin, and even increase signs of ageing.

Many people underestimate the power of a good, gentle cleanser as they are caught up in more fancy products like serums and masks. The truth is that if you have a steady skincare regime in place with quality products you won't need anything else to make your skin look it's best.

Personally I follow the Sakare skincare regime of cleansing, toning and moisturising morning and night. If you don't wish to enter into a regime with 3 stages every morning and night please consider to adopt cleansing, even if just for the purpose of make up removal.

Sakare Calming Milk Cleanser is completely natural and so can be used by any skin type, no matter how sensitive. It's calming due to the unique combination of chamomile, rose water extract, and vitamin E, and will leave your skin feeling 100% clean and even moisturised.

To use simply massage all over your face and remove with a cotton pad or damp cloth. I like to repeat twice: once to remove my make up and a second just to pamper my skin. If you really wish to treat yourself then place a cloth in hot water, ring out the water then place it over your face. The steam will open up your pores and sweat impurities out.

Since using the Sakare cleanser I can't go back to face wipes as I now realise how damaging it is to your precious skin. You only get one face so treat it well and it will last you!
