I tend to mix my skincare up quite a bit using different products and combinations almost every day depending on how my skin feels. Indeed, it's rare that I will have a skincare routine that uses more than a couple of things from the same brand. Lately, however, there has been a trio of Sarah Chapman products that I have been picking up to use in the morning on an almost daily basis.
First on my face (after cleansing of course) is Sarah Chapman Skinesis Instant Hydrating Booster. Now I've raved about this serum plenty of times and I almost always have a bottle to hand as it does wonders for my skin which is frequently dehydrated. I find that just a couple of drops leaves my face looking and feeling refreshed and plumped. It is packed full of hyaluronic acid but it doesn't leave my skin feeling tacky as other hyaluronic products can. It's the consistency of water and I think the reason that I like this so much is that it gives such great results despite being such a super light weight serum - I love the pampering feeling of a skincare routine but hate to feel as if I have layers and layers of product on during the day when I am going to be wearing make up on top.
Sarah Chapman Skinesis Eye Recovery is one of the best eye creams I have found to date and is another repeat purchase. It is packed full of peptides along with more hyaluronic acid and I find that it is very comfortable to wear as I have sensitive eyes and this never makes them sting or tear. Although this cream feels lightweight it is intensely nourishing, banishing crepe-iness under the eyes and smoothing everything out so skin just looks better and it manages to do it's job without leaving you with greasy sticky lids, sinking in swiftly so you don't have to wait an age to apply eye makeup.
Sarah Chapman Skinesis Dynamic Defence was a product I bought at the beginning of the summer and, truth be told, found to be a little too rich for my combination skin in the extreme heat and humidity of a New York summer. Now that the temperature has dropped I find it to be a perfect daytime moisturiser. It is quite rich for a day cream, a little oily even, but like the eye cream it absorbs quickly. In addition to moisturising it contains Vitamin A to help protect your skin along with a Broad Spectrum SPF15 (which I know isn't strictly enough but every little helps right?)
Smelling of iris, rose and jasmine (the same scent as the overnight facial but not as strong) it feels indulgent and pampering as well as effective.
Honestly, there's nothing that I dislike about these three products (except for the price maybe) and I must say that everything I have tried from Sarah Chapman Skinesis has been delightful - Overnight Facial, Ultimate Cleanse and Rapid Radiance Cleanse are all particular favourites of mine from the range. In fact I think it is safe to say that if I had them to hand I would be fitting them all into my morning routine!
If you are looking for some effective yet sumptuous skincare Sarah Chapman has you covered.
