Skincare: Toner and moisturising!

Following on from my post on my skincare routine: cleansing ...here's what I'm using for toners and moisturisers right now...

Witch Hazel- both distilled liquid and in gel form are my current favourites, they do a fantastic job of keeping my skin's tone and texture even, keeping oil at bay and generally boosting my skin condition, my pores are also much much smaller too, take a look at my full review to find out more!

Also in use is Liz Earle's Instant Boost Skin Tonic which softens and soothes my skin with a wonderful scent as a bonus!


I know for some people toner is a step that's seen as pointless but it's really made all the difference to my skin and if I wasn't going to do anything else with it then toner's what I'd reach for.

Moisturising is a bit of a mis-match depending on what my skin's up to. Sometimes leaving my No7 hot cloth cleanser on an extra minute makes all the difference to the moisture level of my skin whilst for others' Liz Earle's Superskin moisturiser does the job in one application, bringing my skin back up from neglected and dry to smooth and supple. 

Simple's oil balancing moisturiser is generally the one I reach for in the mornings whilst Boots' Botanics moisturiser does an amazing job of settling my skin whilst reviving when I've been slack with the nurturing my skin needs.


Currently my face isn't the picture of perfectly cared for skin, but generally when I stick with the above routine I have soft, happy skin! 


What are your top toner and moisturiser favourites? Always good to know for future reference!
