Hold the Complicated Skincare Routine—These Simple Products Have Given Me a Serious Glow

Key ingredients: Cica oil, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, rice bran oil

I love using a cleansing oil to remove my makeup, but my skin can get clogged easily, so I have to be very careful when trying a new formula. Prequel's cleansing oil lifts away makeup and excess sebum without clogging my pores thanks to a non-comedogenic, oil-to-rinse formula. It's one of the only cleansing oils I've tried that doesn't leave a greasy residue on the skin, and it's even safe for sensitive and acne-prone complexions. After using this as my first cleanse, my skin feels soft, supported and never stripped of moisture.

Key ingredients: Glycerin, oat extract, aloe vera

This cleanser first came on my radar after hearing esthetician and Who What Wear UK beauty contributor Grace Day include it in her roundup of the best products for sensitive skin. Designed for both the face and body, it is packed with glycerin, which works as a humectant, drawing water into the skin to keep it hydrated. It also contains soothing ingredients such as oat extract and aloe vera, making it an ideal option for dry or irritated complexions (it's even safe for those of you with rosacea). Pair this with the oil above for the perfect everyday routine to gently cleanse the skin.

Key ingredients: Oat, arnica, vitamin F

The brand currently has two serums available on Space NK: the one above, and then the Multi-Quench Plumping Hydration Serum (£30). Whilst I love a hydrating serum as much as the next person, my skin has been feeling particularly red and irritated lately, so I was keen to try the Redness Reform Soothing Serum instead, and I'm so glad I did. The lightweight formula feels cool and calming on the skin, and what I love is that it instantly works to reduce redness whilst also soothing skin under the surface thanks to a blend of oat, arnica and vitamin F. It might not be a serum I reach for every night, but when I'm using actives in my routine, I can definitely see myself reaching for this one to keep things balanced.

Key ingredients: Peptides, ceramides

This is, hands down, my favourite product from the brand (so far). As the name suggests, it sits halfway between a milky toner and lightweight moisturiser, something that my combination skin can't get enough of. I personally use it as a moisturiser both morning and night, but if you have dry skin, you can apply it underneath a richer cream for even more moisture. Although it's lightweight, it is packed with ceramides and peptides, adding this dewy, plump finish to the skin that has earned me so many compliments.

Key ingredients: Ceramides, glycerin, polyglycerides, linoleic acid, linolenic acid

Speaking of moisturisers, I was surprised that I liked this one as much as I did. It's full of hydrating ingredients, so I thought it would have a rich, almost greasy texture that wouldn't agree with my combination skin. However, I was pleasantly surprised by its lightweight, somewhat gel-like consistency that leaves you with a soft, silky finish and a supported skin barrier. I'd actually say it's the perfect middle point between a light gel moisturiser and a rich cream, making it ideal for so many different skin types. Another everyday essential I can't imagine my skincare routine without.

Key ingredients: 0.02% hypochlorous acid, soothing mineral concentrate, electrolysed water

This is a bit of a new product for me, but I wanted to include it as I've been using it so much this past week. It's essentially a facial mist made for reactive skin, and can be applied whenever you want to soothe or calm the complexion. It also helps neutralise acne-causing bacteria, so I like to use it after the gym if I've had a particularly sweaty workout. It's not something you need in your routine, but I've personally found it a really helpful addition to my everyday life, especially when I'm experiencing more redness than usual.
