La Roche-Posay PURE VITAMIN C10 SERUM – Review
This is a new ascorbic acid serum from La Roche-Posay, not their first ascorbic acid product, though the first in a serum form. I’ve been using it for over a month, and I have almost finished the entire bottle. Here are my thoughts. The serum is meant to help with wrinkles, lack of radiance and…

Avène CLEANANCE SOLAIRE SPF 50+ – Review
I get irritated when I think of this product; it is so terrible. I have given it a fair chance, even twice. It is a mattifying sunscreen, and usually, I would buy SPF 30, but it isn’t available, so I’ve opted for SPF 50+. Now I regret it. This sunscreen was formulated for acne-prone skin.…

PDC Direct White EX Whitening Essence – Review
I had been eyeing this product for quite some time. When I was buying this serum, I thought it would do a lot. It is supposed to fight hyperpigmentation, irritation, and moisturise the skin. There are ingredients to support that. Tranexamic acid is a popular ingredient used for treating hyperpigmentation in Japan. Then, there are…

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…

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.

Fotoprotector ISDIN Fusion Gel SPF 50+ –Review
Let me start off with saying that this sunscreen has nothing to do with a consistency of a gel, it’s as runny as water. Also, if you can’t tolerate alcohol in your skincare, you may skip this one entirely. ISDIN Fusion Gel (also known as Fusion Gel Sport) is designed for active people doing sports…

Mentholatum Sunplay Clear Water SPF 50+ PA++++ – Review
Mentholatum Sunplay sunscreens are one of the most popular sunscreens in Japan. They are affordable and provide high sun protection. The sunscreen that I am reviewing today is one of the Sunplay sunscreens reformulated last year. Japanese and Koreans sunscreens often go through changes. I find it quite clever, as a brand can adjust products…

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…

SVR Sebiaclear Serum – Review
Today’s review is about an amazing product I am going to say it up front. It’s packed with powerful ingredients, and don’t let the advertising to mislead you. You can use whether you’ve got acne or not. Sebiaclear Serum was developed for adults with acne-prone skin and it has ‘a triple action: anti-blemishes, marks, and…

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…

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.…

Do you remember when I reviewed this oily mess from SVR supposedly created for acne-prone skin?

Rohto Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Essence is the reason why this review on Rohto Melano CC Essence Face Masks happened (if you haven’t read it yet, go ahead). I have been using this Essence for a long time now. It’s my most preferred vitamin C serum as it works, and it’s affordable. (By the way,…
