Skincare Update!

All of my life I've suffered from small red bumps/spots on the backs of my arms. I've always been conscious of them and with summer coming up, this year I decided I'm going to do my very best to clear it up!

After scouring the internet I found out the condition is called keratosis pilaris, which is sometimes called chicken skin (I know, it sounds disgusting!)

After to-ing and fro-ing, looking at what solutions other people have found (if they have found something, it turns out it's quite difficult to treat) I settled on the Clinique Turnaround Body Smoothing Cream which quite a lot of people have recommended.




I'm so excited for it to arrive and to give it a try! My arms have been red and bumpy for literally as long as I can remember so the prospect of maybe getting rid of it is amazing!

I'll give it a week when it arrives and post an update on whether there's been any improvements!

Just a quick post about the Boots Simply Sensitive Hydrating Eye Cream I picked up yesterday. I recently have decided to start taking care of my skin more seriously, and have noticed the skin under my eyes has become quite dry and sore. After finding this Boots eye cream I thought I would give it a try!

At the first application, the formulation appeared quite runny, but after applying to my under eyes it was instantly soothing and absorbed into my skin quickly, leaving the area smooth and instantly hydrated.

The cream comes in this handy little tube with a very thin applicator nozzle so you can dispense just a tiny bit of cream as that is all you need.

All in all, I've been using the cream for a couple of days now and can already tell a difference; the skin is still slightly dry and flaky but it seems to be doing it's job! As of this moment I would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking of using a light eye cream, especially as it's kind to sensitive skin like mine!
