Ready to up your skincare game? An excellent decision, if I do say so myself. But rather than fiving into the deep end, let’s take it back to basics first, eh?
Cleansing, or double cleansing to be more exact, is a must when it comes to your skincare routine.
Let your first cleanse take off your makeup, and any dirt from throughout the day (you’d be surprised). Then, your second cleanse should make sure your face is completely spick and span and should cleanse your actual skin.
Skingredients Sally Cleanse, €30
If you haven’t tried Sally Cleanse just yet, first of all, where have you been? And second, prepare to fall in love. Sally Cleanse is a 2% salicylic acid treatment cleanser that can also be used as a micro mask and a three-minute spot zapper. It effectively exfoliates the skin for instantly smoother results and helps to lift away any excess oil for a matte finish.
It’s an OG, and a must-have in your skincare routine especially if you suffer from oily or acne prone skin. And it now comes in refillable packaging too. Shop it here.

CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, €13

Prefer to wear a full face of makeup going about your day? Then you’re gonna love Dermalogica’s Pre Cleanse. Rub this oil in between your hands before massaging over your face, including eyes and lips to melt away makeup, oils and impurities from the skin.
It leaves your skin feeling soft, clean and nourished, without stripping the skin of its natural oils. It comes in both a balm and oil so you can take your pick. The smaller size is just €15, so you don’t have to invest fully before you decide. Shop it here.

Skin Proud Velvet Cloud Cleanser, €14.99
Skin Proud is one of the latest brands to land at Boots, and having tried and tested some of their range I can confirm it’s a good’n. If you’re looking for a vegan cleanser that ensures not to strip the skin, this is for you.
With a whipped mousse texture, it breaks down all traces of makeup for that super-clean feel you’re looking for from a cleanser, all while keeping your skin soft and hydrated. Check it out here.

Declaré Gentle Cleansing Powder, €30
An oldie, but a goodie, this is a cleanser I’ve gone back to time and time again. Made especially for sensitive skin, this is a powder that when mixed with a small amount of water transforms into a softening foam.
A little goes a long way to remove make-up, debris, dead skin cells and purify the skin leaving it supple, soft and squeaky clean. What more could you want? Shop here.
