Skincare is one of those things I always feel like I should be better at (and that I’m failing as a girl because of it somehow). I’m lucky as my skin is fine really (I drink a lot of water) so I’ve never really done anything. Selfcare is something I struggle with generally so never found it worth the effort.

I’m thinking as I enter my thirties though I should. Just had a sheetmask and enjoyed it but I have no idea where to start generally in terms of it.

What’s your skincare routine? Is it worth the effort/cost?

    Dish soap as in washing up liquid?!

    Not sure if this is a cultural difference, never heard of anyone in the UK washing their skin with fairy, thought it would dry it out.

    Looking at this thread though it seems quite common, so maybe we’re the odd ones for not doing it!

      Yep, actual Fairy liquid for dishes. If you’re old enough to remember it was advertised as being gentle enough to not wreck your hands, but she’s used harsher dish detergent on her skin & hair in her youth with no bother.
