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
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 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
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… Read More Lancôme UV Expert Youth Shield Milky Bright SPF 50 PA++++ – Review
I think CeraVe PM Lotion is one of most talked about American skincare products. It’s the amazing cream that everyone swears by. I must say that it’s pretty good, I’ve used the old and the changed formulations. And I agree with people speculating that CeraVe PM Lotion was altered after L’Oreal had acquired CeraVe. Today… Read More CeraVe Moisturising Facial Lotion – 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… Read More SVR SUN SECURE Multi-Resistant Ultra-Matt Gel SPF 50+ – Review
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,… Read More Rohto Melano CC Intensive Anti-Spot Essence – Review
I am back! It’s been a while since I wrote about sunscreens for the last time. So here it goes. I used both of these sunscreens, one till the last drop and the other not as much. I have decided to review these two sunscreens together because they are almost identical from the outside and… Read More The Battle of UV Essence: Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence & Isehan Sunkiller Perfect Water Essence
Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), which is excellent for many skin types. It improves the suppleness, firmness, also brightens, and overall rejuvenates the skin. The continuous use of products containing glycolic acid can better the appearance of enlarged pores, and research shows that it is helpful in acne treatment. It has a… Read More Pixi Glow Peel Pads – Review
Melano CC Essence is one of my favourite vitamin C serums. However, I’d never tried anything else from the line, this why I bought the accompanying sheet masks from the line. I finished using the entire box of Rohto Melano CC Essence Face Masks on 18 August (I know this review is overdue) and the… Read More Rohto Melano CC Essence Face Masks – Review
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… Read More Tried & Disliked
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… Read More Altruist Dermatologist Sunscreen SPF 30 – Review
Keeping in the theme of ferments, I will also review the SK II Facial Treatment Clear Lotion. It also contains ferments like the SK-II Essence, galactomyces ferment filtrate. However, this lotion is not all about the ferments, but about skin clearing properties, aka chemical exfoliation. This toner contains four acids, AHAs: lactic, citric, and malic… Read More SK-II Facial Treatment Clear Lotion – Review
