After a long day in class and staying up late to finish your term paper - you just want to run and crash on your bed. Except, there's one teeny problem - you still have makeup and dirt on your face. Quick! Grab a makeup wipe to remove that layer of makeup from your face, then gently wash your face with a cleanser, follow with a moisturizer and then head to bed. College can be hectic but you should always, always clean your face in the evening. Trust me - your face will thank you in the morning! Here are the top 7 products that I recommend having in your skincare stash.

1. Makeup Remover Wipes

These Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes are perfect for taking that initial layer of dirt, leftover makeup and grime off your face before you head in with the cleanser. Always double cleanse to make sure you're getting everything squeaky clean!

2. Facial Cleanser

Daily cleanser to rid your face of dirt, makeup, and other particles from dust and debris. Choose a cleanser that works well with your skin type. For oily skin - gel formulas tend to work better. For dry skin - creamy or milky cleaners. This Clean & Clear Morning Burst Facial Cleanser is the perfect pick me up for the morning too!

3. Exfoliator

These are used after you wash your face with a cleanser, about twice a week. Exfoliators clear away old skin cells and help unclog pores. I have very sensitive skin, so I use avoid using exfoliators with scratchy grains or scrubs. Those can easily irritate your skin. I recommend Neutrogena's Deep Clean Gentle Scrub which you can pick up with 10% off from Pharmapacks with your UNiDAYS discount!

4. Moisturizer

It’s so important to use a moisturizer that is kind to your skin as well as just moisturising. I recommend REN Skincare's Evercalm Global Protection Day Cream as it has great protection from everyday stressors like smoke and pollution, great if you live a big city like me!

5. Sunscreen

So important to use sunscreen, especially if you are in sunny climates and hot weather. Apply after your moisturiser or find a moisturiser that already includes SPF, as this will help prevent skin discoloration and ageing. I recommend La Roche-Posay Anthelois 50 Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid.

6. Mask

I love using face masks because they are so essential to my skincare routine. Try a mask 2 - 3 times a week and look for one that is hydrating. You want something that leaves your face feeling smooth, hydrated and rejuvenated. Try this Avocado Sheet Mask from the It's Skin range available with 10% off at Urban Outfitters, there's a whole range of masks suitable for a lot of different skin concerns!

7. Eye Cream

We often forget to protect the skin underneath our eyes. It’s so important to treat your eye area with extra care. Avoid using moisturizers or other products near your eyes. Instead, go for an eye cream or gel that is specially designed for the top of the cheek bone and directly under your eye. This Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream will help lock in natural moisture without leaving skin feeling greasy.
