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…

Omorovicza Thermal Cleansing Balm – Review
This is one of the first releases of the brand, and it’s one of the products that I like the most from the brand. Omorovicza products are made with the use of thermal water and mud from Hungary, which is known for its thermal springs. One of the things you should do while in Hungary…

La Roche-Posay Toleriane Sensitive Prebiotic Moisturiser – Review
The entire Toleriane range is amazing; they are one of the best products for sensitive on the market. This moisturiser is a new addition to the Toleriane range and a pretty good one. This product was developed with the idea of healing a compromised skin. It’s meant to soothe, protect, and repair the skin barrier.…

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.…

SVR SUN SECURE Multi-Resistant Ultra-Matt Gel SPF 50+ – Review
Do you remember when I reviewed this oily mess from SVR supposedly created for acne-prone skin? Well, SVR released a new sunscreen aimed at oily skin types this year – SVR Sun Secure Multi-resistant Ultra-Matt Gel SPF 50+ (that’s a long name). Let me tell you it is better, much better than the previous one. This…

Weleda Almond Soothing Cleansing Lotion – Review
I am sorry, I have gone quiet for a while (again…). I’ve been busy, but I promise to catch up ASAP! I hope you will enjoy today’s review. I like Weleda. It’s a good, German brand making nature-oriented skincare, just like many German brands, e.g. Alverde, Dr Hauschka. Though I am not a particular fan…

Cure Natural Aqua Gel & Cure Water Treatment Skin Cream – Review
Cure’s Natural Aqua Gel is one of the most known products amongst Asian beauty lovers. I think it’s the product that initiated the cult of peeling gels. If you haven’t heard about it yet, soon you will. The other one, Cure Water Treatment Skin Cream was a complete novelty for me, I’d had no idea…

Sylveco Chamomile Face Wash – Review
Sylveco is a small, Polish brand producing ‘natural’ skincare based on plants without all those nasties. You would call it an indie brand, I suppose. Though, it’s a relatively affordable one. You would suspect that their products are full of fragrance and essential oils, in amounts that can cause irritation. However, it’s not the case…

HA: Hyaluronic Acid aka Heatwave Aid – Review of 3 Hyaluronic Acid Products
This year’s heatwave is already here; the Scandinavia and Greece are on fire and many people have died. This week the temperatures went beyond 30 here. The entire continent needs some Siberian breeze urgently. When it’s hot, I get sweaty and grumpy. There is no way I will be doing a full routine. Maybe in…

Tried & Disliked
Today, I am going to talk about a few products that I’ve tried, and I don’t really care about. All of these products either underwhelmed me or were completely useless. You could call it an empties post, but I couldn’t finish all of these products as they were just disappointing. Alverde – Reinigungsmilch Perfekter Teint…

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…

Paula’s Choice Calm Non-Greasy Moisturiser SPF 30 – Review
When it comes to exclusively mineral sunscreens some of us love them, and some of us hate them, I have mixed feelings about such sunscreens. I value them for how gentle they are for the skin, and basically, all people can use them. I am not always a fan of their texture, to be precise,…

Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Serum – Review
I wanted to try out this serum for a few reasons: i. Before I had only used Dr. Jart’s sheet masks, and I wanted to discover this brand more; ii. I wanted an anti-redness serum; iii. I wanted to try centella asiatica. So Dr. Jart’s Cicapair Serum seemed like a good fit. Before I get…

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…

Skinoren / Finacea 15% Gel – Review
I started using Skinoren during my teenage years. It was offered to me by my dermatologist as a maintenance treatment after topical antibiotics. Ever since then, I have always been using Skinoren. What are Skinoren and Finacea? Both of these are the trade names of the same azelaic acid treatment produced by Bayer*, in many…

La Roche-Posay Rosaliac AR Intense Serum – Review
At any time of the year, I use at least one of La Roche-Posay’s products, as there are many great ones. I’ve known the Rosaliac range for many years now; Rosaliac UV Light moisturiser is one of my favourite anti-redness products. I’ve gone through many tubes of it over the years. So when LRP released…
