With the makeup and skincare industry
being completely over-saturated, it’s difficult to know what products really hit
the mark and are the holy grail of all products, especially if you are like me
and love reading blogs or watching YouTube. For me, the tell-tale sign that
someone absolutely loves a product is if they would spend their money on the
product again. When I write blog posts, I like to state whether I would buy a
product again or not, as I want to be smart with my money, and if a product is not worth it then I will not purchase it again…
So onto products that I have repurchased
and will continue to repurchase until something else slides it out of
place. I have two makeup favourites and two skincare bits to share with you.
The first makeup product I want to mention is the Kiko Milano Highlighting Effect Fluid Concealer (£7.20/2ml). This is a concealer that is great for highlighting features. If you are new to my blog, then it should be known that I am a massive Kiko Milano fan, I think they have quality products for affordable prices and they are by far my favourite high-street makeup brand.

I use Shade 5 in this product, which is slightly lighter
than my skin-tone, but is just as warm. I love that this product is super
lightweight on the skin, so it's not too heavy on top of my foundation and blends in seamlessly while still providing coverage. I use it under my eyes and in the centre of my face
(forehead, bridge of the nose, upper lip and chin). For a whole blog post on this product, go click on this link!
The second makeup repurchase that I wanted to mention would be the Collection Fast Stroke Liner (£2.99/3.8g). This eyeliner is amazing, affordable and accessible. What I love about this product is that it is super black and also so easy to apply. I’ve tried more expensive eyeliners
in the past, and although I would recommend them, liquid eyeliner generally runs out quite
quickly so I would rather find a brilliant product on the high-street and save
my cash for products that will last longer.
So onto skincare, I’m going to breeze over
this first product because I feel like I mention it in most of my skincare
posts. It’s The Ordinary ‘Buffet’ serum (£12.70/30ml). If you have problematic, congested
skin that might leave you with spots then this is the product to try. It
contains helpful peptides that work to de-congest the skin. I’ve noticed so
much difference in my skin since using the product, I used to have a lot of
texture on my skin and used to be prone to breakouts too. Now my skin is smoother in texture and just feels breathable.
The next product I have repurchased is the
Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream (£24.50/50ml). This is one of my all time favourite
moisturisers. My skin just agrees with it. I love this one and also the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream SPF 30 (£24.50/50ml) too. I find with the Kiehl’s moisturisers that they hydrate your skin on
the inside but also moisturise the top layer of your skin too which is
important as your skin does battle the elements daily, so it’s important that
it’s protected. I generally have oily skin, and I find that this doesn’t leave
my skin feeling greasy or heavy. They sink in well and leave a nice amount of
residue on your skin so that it is prepped for the day. I would be more than
happy to buy this product again because I haven’t found a moisturiser that
delivers as well as this one does.
So that’s my four beauty repurchases, as
you can tell I love these products and it’s just so nice when you find a
product or brand that you agree with and can advocate to other people. I would
love to know what products you have repurchased, as like I said at the start of
this post, it’s just a really good indicator of whether it’s stood the test of
time! So let me know in the comments below!
I really like The Ordinary! I haven't tried that serum yet! I always hear great things about it!

It's such a revolutionary brand! You should try it, it's a product that would suit most skin types :)
