Avene Cicalfate Restorative Hand Cream – Review
Here’s another review of a product from the Cicalfate range. This product’s formula contains Pierre Fabre’s patented blend of minerals and sucralfate, which I discussed in my Cicalfate products review. According to their trials, the combination can reduce symptoms of eczema. The base of the cream is mainly mineral oil with some other emollients. The…

CosRx Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream – Review
The Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream is one of the newest additions to CosRx’s lineup, and as always CosRx didn’t disappoint. The main ingredient in this product is snail secretion filtrate constituting 72% of the formula. Snail secretion filtrate is mainly known for its skin-rejuvenating properties; it calms the skin, takes away redness, and helps…

IOPE Bio Eye Cream Youth Complete – Review
The review is going to be short because the product is simply bad. The main three results that this product is supposed to deliver are firmer skin, fewer wrinkles, and youthful-looking eye area. I couldn’t notice any of these results, instead, it made my eye look like a raisin. During the three-week testing period of…

Indeed Labs 10 Balm Soothing Cream – Review
This product has a simple name, but not so simple ingredients. The product contains ten main ingredients, i.e. allantoin, bisabolol, vitamin E, oils of baobab seed and bruiti as well as extracts of honey, propolis, pollen extract, royal jelly, arnica. The mix of ingredients is rich in antioxidants, minerals, and amino acids. All of the…

Shiseido Anessa Perfect UV Skincare Milk – Review
This product is one of the most popular sunscreens in Japan, but a lot of people outside of it love this product as well. I had wanted to love it too, but it failed to win my heart. This sunscreen provides SPF 50+ and PA++++ (4), the highest possible ratings in Japan. It also includes…

Etude Soon Jung 5 Cica Sleeping Pack – Review
This mask was released during the period when Korean brands were introducing cica lines. Just like most of the other products, this one also contains cantella asiatica – the ingredient that we all love and look out for. This product has a thick and creamy, gel-like consistency, but it absorbs pretty well. A little goes…

Pixi x Caroline Hirons Double Cleanse – Review
This cleanser is one of the products that Pixi have created in collaboration with beauty gurus, in this case with Caroline Hirons. Pixi make a lot of great products, but this cleanser is just superb. First of all, the packaging is very practical – ideal for daily use and travelling; but also the formulas of…

Missha Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence Rx – Review
I don’t even recall which reformulation of the Missha’s essence it is, but it’s another one. If you liked the old version, stock up on it, or forget about it altogether. New formulas are here, and this is one of them. I don’t have much information about the essence, but on the box, it’s written…

Lancôme UV Expert Youth Shield Milky Bright SPF 50 PA++++ – Review
This sunscreen is my favourite, new, discovery of this year so far. It is very pleasing to use, and I’m sure many of you will appreciate it. It’s from the higher price shelf, one of the priciest sunscreens I have used in a while, but it feels luxurious on the skin. This product is quite…

Origins HIGH-POTENCY NIGHT-A-MINS Skin Refining Oil – Review
The winter time is the worst for the skin. It gets cold outside, we turn on heaters, and our skin becomes dry. As there are many great products to hydrate the skin, there’s nothing better than a facial oil to keep yourself moisturised. Origins claim that this oil will ‘[d]elete dullness overnight with our amazing…

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil – Review
When I think of DHC, this is the product that comes to my mind, the Deep Cleansing Oil. I think it’s one of their most popular products. Well, at least, that’s what I associate the brand with, but I am not the only who enjoys this product. I like a good cleansing oil. Using an…

Hada Labo Tokyo Intense Hydrating Skin-Plumping Gel – Review
Some time ago, I reviewed a few of products from the Hada Labo Tokyo range. Today I am back with another product – Hada Labo Tokyo Intense Hydrating Skin-Plumping Gel. Hada Labo Tokyo describe this moisturiser as: ‘luxurious silky gel cream [which] combines the skin perfecting power of a serum with the intense hydration of…

My Favourite Hand Creams: La Roche-Posay Cicaplast & SVR Topialyse
The winter time is the period of the year when two things of my routine are more important than in other seasons — my body lotion and hand cream. These two are indispensable for me, growing up with atopic dermatitis and still dealing with very dry skin, I can’t go outside without a hand cream.…

Altruist Dermatologist Sunscreen SPF 30 – Review
Before I heard the story behind Altruist sunscreens, I had seen them a couple of times in my local chemist’s shop. On the grey tube, there’s a prominent ‘Dermatologist’ writing. I thought to myself ‘another lousy doctor’s brand’ with a doctor that agreed to give his/her name for a share in sales; though, the products…

My Favourite Mists – La Roche-Posay Serozinc & Caudalie Grape Water
I usually don’t use regular toners that you apply on cotton pads unless they contain acids. If they don’t, I don’t like to be bothered. I prefer to use toners in a spray bottle. If I get myself to use a moisturising lotion, that would probably be an essence, especially a fermented one — they…

Hada Labo Tokyo – Review
I think everyone interested in Asian skincare has heard or come by Hada Labo (HL) at some point. They are one of the most popular brands in Japan and outside of it. However, today’s focus will be on Hada Labo Tokyo, which is technically Hada Labo’s Gokujyun line, but with a different name. I don’t…
