PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER    With half of the year covered by clothes, it is usually in summer that our decollete comes out of the turtleneck and we suddenly realize that, much like our hands, neck and chest really do show our age. Especially when you are as old as I am, you will see more and more people whose face doesn’t really match what comes underneath…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   The MISSHA All Around Safe Block Essence Sun Milk made me think about how everyone needs a sunscreen wardrobe. I mean, no matter how much you love that one shirt you feel so good in, you won’t be able to wear it year round, no matter the occasion. Same is true for sunscreens: You obviously have your favorite, the one you reach…

Biossance Squalane + Lactic Acid Resurfacing Night Serum – vegan Lactic Acid | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   The most interesting thing about the Biossance Squalane + Lactic Acid Resurfacing Night Serum is the 10% vegan Lactic Acid. Maybe it is just me, but I remember the days when bathing in milk or covering your face in yogurt was the recommended DIY kitchen hack for a gentle exfoliation, claiming that the lactic acid was in the dairy.    …

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN THIS POST ARE PURCHASED MYSELF, BUT LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   The La Roche Posay Anthelios Ultra-light Invisible Fluid SPF 50 was an oily skin favorite for many years and convinced with a really high PPD rating of 46 – as a quick recap PPD or the PA rating tell you the amount of protection against UVA you will get, meaning how well you are protected against pigmentation amongst other things.

The Inkey List Omega Water Cream – Versatility | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: PRODUCTS ARE DISCUSSED IN THIS BLOGPOST ARE PURCHASED MYSELF AND LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   What is the difference between a serum and a moisturizer? The formulation, the purpose and, well, the marketing. Honestly, these days it can be hard to tell without the label if you apply a rich serum or a lightweight gel, and I love that.     My latest example? The Inkey List Omega Water Cream, which is called a lightweight gel…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   No, you do not need a dedicated Niacinamide Serum in your routine. Niacinamide is in so many skincare products these days that you most likely get enough through your multipurpose products already. With that being said: I almost always have one in my rotation, and the reason for that is my minimalistic approach. Sounds counterintuitive, but on the nights I use…

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN THIS POST ARE PR (GIFTED) AND LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER I had no idea DRMTLGY sunscreens were that popular until I received some in the mail – I hadn’t even heard of the brand at all, not even their infamous needle-less serum, which is apparently a bestseller. Their products are more on the pricey side, with the DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer SPF 46 and their DRMTLGY Broad Spectrum SPF 45 being among the…
