This sunscreen is the 2019 version of the UV Expert Aqua Gel. I’ve picked up the gel version, as I’d thought a gel sunscreen would be light and more suitable for hot, summery weather. Similarly to the Lancôme UV Expert Milky Bright, which I reviewed a few months ago, this product provides high protection against… Read More Lancôme UV Expert Aqua Gel SPF 50 PA++++ (2019 Version) – Review
This is a new addition to the Nivea SUN line. I would say it’s a better one than the last year’s releases, but it isn’t ideal. This product is similar to last year’s line-up by Nivea. It provides high protection from both UVA and UVB (only chemical filters in this formula) and contains liquorice root… Read More Nivea SUN UV Face Soothing Sensitive SPF 50 – Review
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
Products from the Moisture Surge range have been the first ones that I’ve tried from Clinique, and they are my favourites. Each item in the line is simply amazing, the products are suitable for all skin types and deliver amazing results In this product, there is a variety of moisturising ingredients. The main two are… Read More Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray Thirsty Skin Relief – Review
This cleanser is from Watsons’ Target Pro line, which is supposed to be a clinical/pro one with a lot of eye-catching ingredients. The products are meant to treat the skin and strengthen its barrier – that’s the general concept of the line. There are three ingredients written on the tube ‘Diamond Sirt, Ceramide and Thermal… Read More TARGET PRO BY WATSONS Essential Hot Cleansing Gel – 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
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 Rohto Mentholatum Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk SPF 50+ PA++++ – 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
Here’s a review of another reformulated sunscreen this year, unfortunately not a successful one. This formula just as the previous one is a mix of chemical filters and titanium dioxide. It is water resistant and suitable for all skin types, intended for both face and body. It also contains hydrating ingredients such as hyaluronic acid,… Read More Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Gel SPF 50+ PA++++ (2019 Version) – Review
Summer is coming! Honestly, I wish, it weren’t. I am not a summer person. It’s hot, you need to avoid the sun, and you just don’t feel like doing anything. Well, at least that’s me during hot days. Summer also means that I put extra attention to the way I protect myself from the sun.… Read More How to Protect Yourself from the Sun?
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
This sunscreen is a reformulation of the Anthelios Ultra-Light sunscreen. With the update, LRP brought back the SPF 30 version to the Ultra-Light line. The significant changes in this formula are: Improved sun protection, including infrared light: PPD rating increased from 42 to 46, and LRP assert that the product meets standards ‘stricter than the… Read More La Roche-Posay ANTHELIOS SHAKA ULTRA-LIGHT SPF 50+ – Review
