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… Read More Etude House Soon Jung Panthensoside 5 Cica Sleeping Pack – Review
I like this mask – it does what it says on the box, and it’s relatively affordable. I have gone through a few jars of this mask since its launch. By the way, in some markets, it’s also called Anew Clinical Overnight Hydration Mask. Here’s what Avon say about it: The unique gel formula is… Read More Avon Anew Clinical Defend & Repair Advanced Hydration Overnight Mask – Review
I think this is one of the oldest Korean sunscreens; I had been postponing buying this sunscreen for years, as I knew it would be just like many other mineral-only sunscreens – drying and ashy. This sunscreen contains titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, not micronised, as well as iron oxides that help to protect from… Read More Innisfree Daily UV Protection Cream No Sebum SPF 35 PA+++ – Review
I usually don’t shop from Estee Lauder, they don’t carry many products that catch my attention, but this one is amazing. I notice quite a lot of inspiration from Asian beauty in this product, and let me explain to you why. Estee Lauder’s description of the product: Sheer fresh moisture without excess shine. Supercharges skin… Read More Estee Lauder Nutritious Micro-Algae Pore Minimizing Hydra Lotion – Review
June is Acne Awareness Month and having suffered from acne myself, I take the issue very seriously and personally. In my posts, I call acne a disease, a skin condition or an ailment, but in reality, it’s a skin disease, and like all disorders, it should be treated by a doctor, more specifically a dermatologist.… Read More How to Alleviate Acne Symptoms?
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… Read More Pixi x Caroline Hirons Double Cleanse – Review
Here’s another product from the Hada Labo Tokyo line. This lotion is quite similar to the original lotion sold in Japan; however, the ingredients are slightly different just like in other products from the same line. I picked up a couple of bottles of this lotion last autumn in Poland, and I’ve been using it… Read More Hada Labo Tokyo No. 1 Super Hydrator – Review
This is another BHA cleanser that I am enjoying. After reviewing Sylveco’s cleanser, I wanted to find a product that would be available to more people, and I think this one hits the spot. This product seems to have the gentlest formula amongst all Neutrogena’s salicylic acid face washes, as it doesn’t contain any sulphates.… Read More Neutrogena Visibly Clear Spot Proofing Daily Wash – Review
I always have a gentle face wash around — a type of cleanser that I can use when my skin is irritated or not. Something easy and affordable, and this cleanser fits in the category.

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… Read More La Roche-Posay PURE VITAMIN C10 SERUM – Review
I am irritated when I think of this product; it is so terrible. I have given it a fair chance, even twice. It is 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. It… Read More Avène CLEANANCE SOLAIRE SPF 50+ – 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… Read More PDC Direct White EX Whitening Essence – 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… Read More MISSHA Time Revolution The First Treatment Essence Rx – Review
This is another forgotten review — the super popular CosRX’s honey mask. It’s a hydrating mask that is also supposed to brighten and soothe the skin. It’s not overloaded with ingredients; the two main elements are propolis extract and natural beeswax, there’s no actual honey in the product. It contains glycerine, dimethicone, and hyaluronic acid.… Read More COSRX Ultimate Moisturizing Honey Overnight Mask – Review
