Beauty must haves | skin care edition

Looking after your skin is a must, and there are so many factors into looking after your skin that it can be a daunting process, but with these items, it will make life a hell of a lot easier, and this is without breaking the bank.

{all costs are in New Zealand dollars}

The most import ones are water and sleep, I know you hear this a lot, but it's true, skin gets dehydrated very quickly, so water is a must, and without sleep, the under-eye bags are going to get really bad and very hard to cover up.

A good makeup remover: I personally use the cleansing micellar water with rosehip by Essano. It costs around $13 for 400ml, and I use it every day and still have leftovers after a full year of use; you don't need a lot because it goes a long way.

night cream: I have very combined sensitive skin, so I use two different night creams, both by Essano, I use rosehip moisture restore night cream for $23, and I also use the collagen repair night cream for $25

serum booster: I use the relax sleep tight serum booster. It costs $5 from Kmart

cleansing products: my favourite is the Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser it is $7.90 from net pharmacy

toner: I use the Thursday plantation tea tree and witch hazel honer, and I get 100ml for $10 at lie pharmacy

exfoliator: when it comes to exfoliators, it can be so hard to pick one that is good, but you really need to think about your skin type because you don't want to aggravate the skin if you have very sensitive skin; I personally use the st I've apricot blemish scrub which is about $10 at the warehouse

moisturiser: I currently don't have any moisturiser left for my skin, but I have tried a few in the past, and the next one I will be trying is the st Ives renewing collagen and elastin moisturiser, which you can get for $10 at the warehouse

eye cream: I use the essano visible lift eye creme, which is $18 from the warehouse, but when it comes to the eyes, you really don't want to be really cheap, in my opinion

Face oil: I really don't be cheap when it comes to my face oils, and it shows because I use Kora Organics By Miranda Kerr Noni Glow Face Oil 10ml, which is $39 from Sephora; you can get cheaper ones.

Top 10 must-see travel destinations: New Zealand

  Top 10 places to visit in New Zealand   I moved to New Zealand back when I was seven years old, and as I grew up, I wanted to find some fantastic places to visit. I found the ten best places to visit in New Zealand.  This list will contain five places in the south island of New Zealand and five of the north island.  North Island 1- Matamata All my hobbit fans will definitely want to check out Matamata, where the shire lays.  But for all my non-hobbit fans, there is still a lot to do in Matamata, from the Wairere falls to the opal hot springs.  2- Pouakai If you love long walks, The pouakai range is for you, but even if you don’t want to go on a walk, there is still a lot of sightseeing to do.  3-Waiheke Island From beautiful beaches to wine tours  Waiheke island has something for everyone.  4-Rotorua From the hot springs to the Maori culture, Rotorua is a must-go destination.  5-Coromandel The coromandel has such a vibrant history that it’s no wonder most people rave about going to t
