Olay Scrubs Detoxifying Vitamin C & Black Charcoal; A good scrub for once a week use!
Skin type: Combination. Pale. I wasn’t shouting it from the rooftops, but I did enjoy using Olay Detoxifying Vitamin C & Black Charcoal Scrub. Right away, let me say that I don’t recommend it for daily use. While it claims to be suitable for daily use I found that it dried out my Combination skin when using it every day. Over-exfoliation is a real problem and I don’t think anyone needs a daily scrub. What I like to do is keep it in the shower and use it once a week. That way

I don’t wear makeup daily, but I did find it absorbed quickly and didn’t leave a residue. I would probably recommend applying it and your moisturiser at least 30 mi

Neutrogena Clear Face: The Perfect facial sunscreen!
Skin type: Combination. Pale. Absolutely love this Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen Lotion. My only complaint would be that I was sent the SPF 30 option, which is a little low for me. I have extremely pale, Scottish skin that burns easily even on overcast days, so SPF 30 only works for me in spring or early summer, during the hottest summer days I need a higher SPF. This is available in higher SPF though, so it’s not really a problem when you're buying it. This sunscreen has
