Introducing Sarah-Jane

by Sarah-Jane
I am your new contributing Beauty Editor, Sarah-Jane, but my friends call me SJ. I have been working as a beauty journalist for over 7 years now so I feel fairly qualified to tell you all about the latest products that are going to be coming onto the site as well as talking about other products that I highly recommend.
So, as this is the beginning of my blog I thought I would talk about the beginning of any beauty regime – cleansing, toning and moisturising. My favourite cleanser of all time is Clarins one-step gentle exfoliating cleanser. It has tiny exfoliating beads in it, which I need as I have oily skin and it helps keep it under control. Now as for toning, I have a big confession to make – I don’t actually tone. Like so many other women, I have limited time in the morning and would rather lie-in for an extra 5 minutes then extend my time standing in front of the mirror and in the evening, quite frankly I just want to get to bed. So I normally skip this step and go straight on to the moisturising part – but if you guys have tried any good toners recently then let me know, you might be able to convert me. Finally for the moisturising, by day I use Good Skin oil-free lotion, £12 and by night I swear by Origins night-a-mins lotion, £26. My skin can’t take heavy creams so these lighter versions are perfect for me.
When necessary a spot treatment and the odd face mask is thrown in for good measure, but that’s a whole other blog. Until next time, stay beautiful.
