This post concludes my reviews of SkinCeuticals’ products for 2020, as I don’t plan any more for this year. The H.A. Intensifier is more than just a hyaluronic serum; it contains a lot of ingredients that work together to revitalise the skin. The main component of the formula, besides hyaluronic acid (1.3%), is Proxylane (10%),… Read More SkinCeuticals Hyaluronic Acid Intensifier (H.A) – Review
SkinCeuticals’ C E Ferulic is on the top of the game when it comes to ascorbic acid serums. It is a patented formulation in which ascorbic acid is at a high concentration and at the right pH, which provides optimal results. A lot of brands try to create similar formulations, but when it comes to… Read More SkinCetuicals C E Ferulic – Review
This is my favourite face cleanser from Clinique, gentle and filled with skin-benefiting ingredients. This cleanser includes many moisturising ingredients such as squalane, which is second in the list, glycerine, cholesterol, cucumber extract, and several skin-soothing plant extracts. Clinique bring our attention to their ‘patented, skin-soothing lactobacillus extract’, which is listed as lactobacillus ferment (clinique.co.uk).… Read More Clinique Redness Solutions Soothing Cleanser – Review
This is one of the most popular essences in Korea and abroad, and I’ve wanted to try it for a long time. Here’s a review of it.

These two products have the purpose of brightening the skin, and the main ingredient in both of them is tranexamic acid. (TXA) Tranexamic acid has been studied as a skincare ingredient for decades now. It has been proven to have anti-inflammatory properties, as it mitigates skin damage caused by UV rays. It helps with post-inflammatory… Read More Hada Labo Shirojyun Premium Whitening Jelly Essence & Whitening Jelly Sheet Mask – 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… Read More CosRx Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream – Review
This product is like a bad romance; it’s alright to have a bit of it, but in large amounts, it brings trouble. The Ultra Facial Defense sunscreen has SPF 50+ and PPD rating of 26.4. It is a mixed sunscreen with titanium dioxide, L’Oreal’s Mexoryls XL & SX, and other chemical filters. It is very… Read More SkinCeuticals Ultra Facial Defense SPF 50+ – Review
Here is another review of a moisturiser from the Hada Labo family. The main active ingredient of this moisturiser is arbutin, which is known for diminishing hyperpigmentation and overall brightening the skin tone. There’s also a vitamin C derivative in the form of magnesium ascorbyl phosphate, which shares similar functions to arbutin. As in all… Read More Hada Labo Shirojyun Arbutin Whitening Cream – Review
Florence is known for its antique pharmacies offering various goods from perfumes to skincare. This hand cream comes from the gift shop of the Abbey of St. Minias on the Mountain (it.

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.

Update 23/07/2021: This product is no longer available; you can my latest review of the new version here. This sunscreen is not the most cosmetically elegant product out there; there are certainly better options available. Despite that, I like this sunscreen, and I am willing to repurchase it next year and let me tell you… Read More Kanebo Allie Extra UV Facial Gel SPF 50+ PA++++ – Review
This sunscreen makes me very happy, especially after two recent failures, because it does what it says on the box. Let me start by saying that this product has been repackaged. It’s the same formula but in a sky-blue bottle instead of a yellow one. Don’t confuse it with a new sunscreen in a pink… Read More Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk SPF 50+ PA++++ – Review
Mentholatum Sunplay sunscreens are one of the most popular sunscreens in Japan. They are affordable and provide high sun protection.
