#BootsBeautyBox c/o Boots
If you are looking to either take on a new skincare routine, or amp up your existing beauty regime, investing in new beauty products can be expensive. Especially so if you adopt the mindset that if it is more expensive, it means that it is better for your skin. Which, I can honestly say does not always ring true and there are many high street products on the market from our favourite drugstores, including Boots.com, that will do just as good a job, if not better!
The lovely team over at Boots recently sent me a #BootsBeautyBox, packed full with some of their best selling skincare products from their Boots Essentials, Botanics, Skin Clear and Simply Sensitive ranges. From the bunch, the four products that stood out to me and have recently been incorporated into my daily skincare routine, have been:

SKIN CLEAR RAPID ACTION SPOT GEL

Recently I have been getting the odd breakout on my cheek, forehead or chin area and as soon as a spot starts to appear I like to get to work on minimising the size of it, as quick as I can. This nifty gel is said to reduce redness within four hours, reduce the size of spots in two hours and kill off harmful bacteria deep in your pores. On using the Skin Clear Rapid Action Spot Gel my skin feels instantly soothed and I like to apply before bedtime and in the mornings before applying make-up, to kill as many surrounding germs as possible.

TEA TREE & WITCH HAZEL FACIAL SCRUB

This charcoal face scrub has again been a saviour for my skin upon my recent breakouts and I have found it to also be a God save for removing dead and dry skin that seems to appear on and around my nose (I think I need to drink more when I am in the office). If you are looking for a new face wash then the Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Facial Scrub comes in at a pocket friendly £3-£5.

BOTANICS 3 IN 1 CLEANSING SOLUTION

This is the first time that I have tried a liquid cleanser and I am surprised at how much I have been loving this product. The Botanics Cleansing Micellar Water Solution is great for removing make-up and for an added cooling sensation on the skin I have been keeping mine in the re-refrigerator prior to use.

SIMPLY SENSITIVE PROTECTING DAY MOISTURISER SPF15

When looking for a daily moisturiser it is always a good idea to go for one that has SPF protection. For less than £5 this daily moisturiser has aloe vera in to help cool the skin and feels light once applied and is a great base for your foundation.

So, if you are looking to add some new skincare products without breaking the bank, you can head into your nearest Boots or visit them online to see what skincare treats they have in store.

    Thanks Emily 🙂 I couldn't believe the prices of some of the products, as skincare is usually so pricey! So, these are definitely my favourites that I will continue to use! xx
