This Jelly is one of the last few active products that I will review this year. If you follow me on Instagram, then you may know that I was prescribed a hydroquinone cream in June, so this is the ultimate product that I had managed to squeeze in for trialing before I had to start the treatment.… Read More Transino Whitening Jelly Lotion – Review
I don’t usually review dietary supplements because I don’t think it’s my place to recommend to people things that can significantly impact their health. However, for this particular product, I will make an exception. The Heliocare supplements are not basic multi-vitamin pills whose contents you will only pee out; they offer scientifically proven results. A… Read More Heliocare Ultra D Capsules – Review
This cream is one of few products that was not included in this year’s reformulations from the Hada Labo range, which makes me very happy because I can review it. However, the write-up will be short, as the product isn’t that exceptional. The product contains the sought-after tranexamic acid (TA) as the main active ingredient… Read More Hada Labo Hada Labo Koi-Gokujyun Whitening Perfect Gel – Review
I don’t usually write about skincare marketed for men. I know there are some histological differences between male and female skin. Still, at the end of the day, the division in the skincare industry is about marketing strategies and nothing else. This product is no exception; it will suit everyone. The formula combines zinc oxide… Read More Kao Nivea Men UV Protector SPF50+ – Review
Summer is here, at least in the northern hemisphere, and many of us will be changing regular shoes for sandals or sliders, and with that may arrive the anxiety of showing off ashy feet. But fret no more; here’s a product that can ease your worries. This foot cream contains many hydrating ingredients like the… Read More CeraVe SA Renewing Foot Cream – Review
When I first read about the release of this product on ratzillacosme.com (the encyclopaedia of the Japanese beauty industry) earlier this year, I couldn’t wait to try it. However, it has turned out to be incredibly disappointing. The sunscreen combines zinc oxide and chemical filters, offering us high protection of SPF 50+ and PA++++ (4). The unique… Read More Kose Suncut Pro Defense Multi-Block Sunscreen UV Milk – Review
I used to detest menthol, I had even written about my dislike towards the ingredient in a few of my posts. However, ever since I’ve moved to Italy, I’ve grown fond of it. The evanescent tickle of coolness that menthol brings is something that I need during the warm months here. For me, it feels… Read More Mandom Gatsby Crazy Cool Body Water — Review
This product has been such a pleasant surprise. It offers very high UV protection with a presentable finish. This sunscreen contains a mix of chemical filters and titanium dioxide, giving us the protection of SPF 100 and PPD 58 (information obtained from Eucerin). Why do they put SPF 100 on the label even though the… Read More Eucerin Actinic Control MD SPF 100 – Review
This shampoo has been present in my life for so many years that I haven’t even noticed how heavily I rely on it. Admittedly, it’s one of the few products that I replenish regularly. In contrast to my skincare, I limit my haircare to a few staples with some occasional deviations; I like to stick… Read More Jason Dandruff Relief Treatment Shampoo – Review
Hydroquinone is disappearing from the OTC market in America, and some of you may be affected by the change, but do not worry, I’ve got you covered. This product from Mseoestic can help you with hyperpigmentation issues. The formula contains various ingredients with varying purposes, which give a gleaming and clear complexion. The star of… Read More Mesoestetic Melan Tran3x Daily Depigmenting Gel Cream – Review
I believe I have never blogged about haircare before, and it’s time to change that. Here’s a review of one of my favourite products from Shiseido, the Tsabuki Premium Repair Hair Mask. The mask features Shiseido’s unique technology allowing the active ingredients to penetrate rapidly into hair without the need for the product to stay… Read More Shiseido Tsubaki Premium Repair Hair Mask – Review
Today is World Book Day! Honestly, I am not much of a bookworm, but I enjoy reading a book once in a while; I think everyone does. On the occasion of a day dedicated to reading books, I have decided to share few titles that have influenced me. Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote This is… Read More World Book Day
Here’s a review of a product from a popular Japanese brand, Sana. The formula includes a blend of moisturising and brightening ingredients: two actives, arbutin and liquorice extract, which are well-known to help with hyperpigmentation. There are also fermented soybean and soy milk extracts that aid with skin discolourations. There’s ethanol in the formula, but it… Read More SANA Namerakahonpo Soy Milk Whitening Gel – Review
I don’t know what I thought when I was purchasing the sunscreen. Did I believe that L’Oréal, out of nowhere, had started making ungreasy sunscreens? If so, then I am a naive fool. Because the masters of upcycling formulas have done it again, this sunscreen is technically the Anthelios Ultralight-Fluid with few skin-benefiting ingredients. The… Read More Vichy Capital Soleil UV Age Daily SPF50+ Facial Sunscreen – Review
