The Beauty Products She Uses, That You Can Use Too

Every now and then, the unthinkable happens. I got to the bathroom cabinet and to my complete dismay discover that I'm fresh out of facial serum cleanser. It's gone 10pm, the local pharmacy is closed.

Perhaps it's time to come clean pardon the pun, but I have on more than one occasion veered into Tuula's side of the mirrored cabinet and used (without consent) some of her beauty products. Not only that, but I've used them more than once. And here today I'm not only announcing to you all that I have no remorse, but that I openly recommend these products as a refreshing alternative the male grooming mainstream narrative. Here goes, and thank you. 

Hyaluronic Moisturising Body Cream

I use this one on my face at night. The Intensive moisturising body cream by team Dr Joseph has a pleasant fragrance for a long lasting skin care experience. Protective extracts of apple, rose hip and hydrating botanical hyaluronic acid give your skin a plus of vitality and glow. I also like the name, maybe I should start a 'Team Carl Thompson'. It does sound like I've discovered a way to clone myself doesn't it? 

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion

I put this on my face after the body cream. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion combines all-day hydration with skin-strengthening ingredients to provide the necessary protection and hydration for very dry or dry to combination skin type. The skin is more resilient. The silky texture penetrates quickly.  Two squirts does it. Oh get your mind out of the gutter. 

Clinique Moisture Surge Hydrating Supercharged Concentrate

Last thing at night. Clinique's Moisture Surge Eye 96-Hour Hydro Filler Concentrate is an ultralight, cushiony water-gel that helps eye-area skin replenish its own moisture for a full 96 hours of intense, crease-plumping hydration. For all skin types. Even though the packaging doesn't look particularly unisex. 

Green Tangerine Vitamin C Eye Patch

First thing in the morning. You can even plonk these on behind your sunglasses when out walking the dog. Green Tangerine Vitamin C Eye Patch 60 sheets (22AD)- This green tangerine vitamin c eye patch takes care of dull, tired skin around your eyes with instant hydration and radiance. - A hydrogel patch contains green tangerine vita c spot serum to provide moisture and a whitening effect. 

Elemis PRO-COLLAGEN marine cream

Admittedly I only use sparingly due to the lofty price tag. This anti-wrinkle moisturiser is clinically proven to improve hydration, leaving skin looking and feeling firmer and more radiant.

Meet the ultimate anti-ageing cream that is giving people the confidence to go makeup free. This super moisturising, yet ultra-lightweight gel cream delivers essential hydration for younger-looking skin.
