Top Ten Beauty Buys With Luke Sam Sowden

I’ve been absolutely loving Nadine Baggott’s Top Ten Beauty Buys IGTV Series lately, as I really like seeing all of the Beauty products that people actually use. Well as you probably already know, I use quite a lot of Beauty products myself, and I thought that I would tell you all of my top ten Beauty Buys and why I love them so much.

Anyway, that’s enough of me rambling, here’s my Top Ten Beauty Buys.

A tall conical white plastic tube with a bright white lid that has Aldi Lacura Rose Hot Cloth Cleanser written in dark pink writing and a picture of a dark pink strip on it next to a tall bright white cardboard box that has Aldi Lacura rose Hot Cloth Cleanser written in dark pink writing and a picture of a dark pink strip on it, on a white background.

1. Aldi Lacura Rose or Vitamin C Hot Cloth Cleanser.

I always have a couple of Tubes of these on the go, as their incredibly thick and creamy yet ever so slightly balmy consistency always leaves my Skin feeling incredibly squeaky clean, silky soft and intensely moisturised. Plus they’re also great at removing any kind of SPF that i’ve been wearing without me having to pull or scrub at my Skin.

A tall thin conical white Plastic Tube with a silver Plastic Lid that has GlamGlow SuperCleanse™ Cream To Foam Cleanser written in bold black writing on it next to a tall rectangular white cardboard box that has GlamGlow SuperCleanse™ Cream To Foam Cleanser written in bold black writing and a picture of a silver star on it, on a white background.

I only really buy this when it’s on some kind of an offer, as I can never justify spending £25 on a Cleanser. But on the plus side one Tube does tend to last me about twelve months as I only really use it whenever I have a massive Blemish that i’m trying to get rid of or my Skin is feeling particularly oily, greasy and clogged.

A tall slim cylindrical clear plastic bottle with a white lid full of some Orange liquid and a label that has Pixi Glow Tonic written in bold Grey writing on it on a light wooden table, on a black background.

I’ve probably gone through about ten Bottles of this since I first started using it, but I just haven’t found anything else that leaves my Skin feeling so smooth or looking so clear without it being an actual Physical Exfoliator.

A long and thin bright orange plastic tube with a gradient black and bright orange label that has L’Oreal Men Expert Hydra Energetic Anti-Fatigue Eye Roll-On written in bold white writing on it, on a white background.

It’s probably the amount of Caffeine that’s in this that makes me love it so much, as I can usually wake up after having a disastrous night’s sleep, roll a little bit of it underneath and around my Eyes and end up looking like ‘i’ve actually had a full eight hours of uninterrupted sleep.

A short cylindrical clear glass bottle full of some bright white liquid with a white pipette lid and a white label that has The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 written in bold black writing on it, on a white background.

5. The Ordinary 2% Hyaluronic + B5.

It’s not the fanciest Hyaluronic Acid Serum in the World, and it does leave my Skin feeling a little bit on the sticky side every time that I use it, but i’ve probably gone through about ten Bottles of this ever since I first started using it as I just haven’t found anything else that leaves my Skin feeling so plump and hydrated. Plus it’s so reasonably priced that I don’t feel guilty whenever I use it on any other parts of my Body that need a little bit of extra hydration.

A tall rounded rectangular pale pink plastic bottle with a white Plastic lid that has Garnier Naturals Rose Water Toner For Sensitive Skin written in bold black writing and a picture of a large bright pink rose on it, on a white background.

6. Garnier Naturals Rose Water Toner For Sensitive Skin.

I probably go through about five or six Bottles of this a year, as I don’t actually use it as a Toner and instead decant it into a Spray Bottle and use it as a Hydrating Mist. I also use it in between the various different steps of my Skincare Routine whenever my Skin is feeling particularly dry or rough, as it tends to supercharge whatever i’ve used and add tons of hydration to my Skin without leaving it feeling greasy or sticky.

A short cylindrical clear glass bottle with a white pipette lid full of some dark red liquid and a white label that has The Ordinary written in bold black writing and 30% AHA + 2% BHA Peeling Solution written in smaller bold black writing on it, on a white background.

7. The Ordinary 30% AHA + 2% BHA Peeling Solution.

I’ve probably gone through about three or four Bottles of this ever since I first started using it, as even though I use it at least once a week, one Bottle lasts me between five and six months. I love a good Exfoliating Acid Peel but some aren’t as strong as I would like them to be, and this gives me that perfect glass like smooth Skin that i’m after with very minimal effort. It does say that you’re supposed to only leave it on for a maximum of ten minutes though, but as I have Skin like a Rhinoceros, I can usually leave it on for a good half an hour before I start to feel even the slightest of tingling sensations.

A small rectangular blue cardboard box that has spacemasks written in bold white writing and a picture of some blue and white stars on it, on a white background.

8. Spacemasks Self-Heating Eye Masks.

At £15 for a pack of three they aren’t the cheapest Eye Masks in the World, but they’re perfect for whenever one of my Migraines decide to rock up for a visit or when my Eyes decide to start stinging or itching for absolutely no reason. They’re also great to use once they’ve finally finished heating up, as they allow me to block out any light and just relax for a while without me worrying that i’m irritating my Eyes even more.

A short rounded rectangular gradient blue and green plastic bottle that has Mitchum Men Ice Fresh Deodorant Stick written in bold black writing and Triple Odour Defence written in bold gold writing on it, on a white background.

9. Mitchum Men Triple Odor Defence Ice Fresh Deodorant Stick .

I’ve always used Mitchum Roll-On Deodorants as they’re the only Deodorant that manages to keep me feeling dry all day long, but this leaves me feeling incredibly dry and fresh all day long as well as also leaving my Under Arms feeling incredibly silky soft, hydrated and intensely moisturised, plus I also get little faint bursts of it’s delicious fresh and clean scent every so often throughout the day.

A tall cylindrical clear glass bottle full of some clear liquid with a metallic silver lid and a bright green label that has The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea™ Eau De Cologne written in bold white writing and some pictures of some tea leaves on it, on a white background.

10. The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea Eau De Cologne

I don’t really have a Signature Scent as I tend to wear whatever Fragrance i’m in the mood to wear, but I have bought at least two or three Bottles of this ever since I first started using it as I absolutely love it’s delicious fresh and zesty yet ever so slightly floral Green Tea scent. Unfortunately though, they’ve sadly discontinued most of the Fuji Green Tea range so let’s hope that they don’t discontinue this too.
There you go, that’s my Top Ten Beauty Buys.
