My New Face Routine

Some times I feel like make up removing products don't always take everything off. I feel limited to what I use as my skin tends to have reactions to certain products so I try not to over do the amount of products I use or change them around a lot.

Most days I don't wear that much make up and some days I don't even bother. I like to give my skin a break once or twice a week from make up. On night's out I do wear a good amount and sometimes break out after even though I have removed it all and cleansed my face. This is where I feel it's not removing it all.

So on a recent trip to Penney's ( I know it sounds like I'm there a lot) I saw these and thought I have to buy them. I think these thoughts a lot and this is why I'm always broke, well that and I keep leaving the country and flying to the other side of the world for a few months. At first the brush felt a little stiff and I wasn't sure if it would be to rough on my skin but once I used it I noticed it was much softer then I first thought and the sponges feel very similar to ones I have bought in the beauty shops. Not bad for €2.50 for both. 

After removing my makeup with makeup remover I applied my usual cleanser to my face and then using the brush I used a circular motion to rub the cleanser into my skin. After I was finished I dipped the sponged in some luck warm water and and removed the cleanser. Each time I wiped of some cleanser of my face with the sponge I used a different part for the next area of my face and rinse the sponge when I needed to. I felt like my face was so clean after and all I needed to do was apply some moisturiser and I was done.

Cocoa Brown Tough Stuff Review

First of all I love the smell of this, it just smells fresh and makes me want to use it even more. Secondly I love that it's pink.

This is one of the best product that I have bought in a very long time. The first time I used it I knew I would become obsessed with it. There is definitely no going back now.

It's described as "A no nonsense 3 in 1 body scrub" used to prepare skin for cocoa brown tan, remove stubborn old tan and as a fabulous exfoliating body treatment.

I have used this for all three of these. Using tough stuff before I applied my tan helped my tan develop without any bad patches around dry areas. I struggle with this usually which tend to put me off tanning. As I suffer with eczema and keratosis pilaris (bumpy red skin that can be very rough) on my arms and legs I have been let down by a lot of products that just don't work for me. This is definitely not one of those products. I used it on dry skin the first time and then on wet skin every couple of days since. 

I expected good results from the reviews I kept seeing but didn't expect how good the results would actually be, my legs and arms especially have never been so soft. I literally kept telling people to feel how soft my skin was .... Like a weirdo haha.

I used it when my tan was fading to help it as it tends to sick to the insides of my elbows and the back of my knees. Oh and also on my hands and feet. Basically anywhere I tend to have eczema breakouts.

I recommend that anyone who wants supper soft skin and perfect tan should give this ago and the results will speak for themselves. I must pick up a new one to stick in my suitcase to bring with me.
