One year of empties – skincare, hair care and makeup I finished in 2023 | Doctor Anne

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   Collecting all the products you use up and throwing them in one huge Empties post at the end of the year always sounds like such a great idea – until you actually have to sit down with a huge bag full of trash to sort through.     Will I ever learn? Probably not. So without further ado, get yourself a…

facetheory Supergel Moisturiser Oil-Free PRO vs Original – Which one is better? | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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 was really lucky that I got both the original facetheory Supergel Moisturizer Oil-frrr as well as the Supergel Moisturizer PRO that promises more actives, but also is quite a bit more expensive than the original. That way I get to compare them side by side and am able to tell you what has changed – other than the ingredients. Does…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   I know the Balea Beauty Expert line is a little niche, as the brand is only available in select parts of the world, but when I saw the Balea Beauty Expert Hydration Toner as new releases in my local DM, I knew I had to pick it up.   Some of the products I tried from the line were really good,…

facetheory Lumizela Azelaic Acid A10 Serum – Breakfast serum | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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   When you look at the ingredient list, the facetheory Lumizela Azelaic Acid A10 Serum sounds like breakfast. At least based on what I eat during the week, you don’t find fancy croissants here. Because other than the Azelaic Acid, which is derived from wheat,there are quite a few other things included that have potential skin benefits, but are also healthy and…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   Tiny white bumps on your face that look like whiteheads, but no matter what you try, you can’t pop them? Most likely those are Milia, and while you shouldn’t squeeze anything you have on your face, with Milia it is an especially bad idea.     But what are they, why do they appear and how can you successfully treat them? We will talk about all that today. And as always…

facetheory Polypep Collagen Boosting Serum PRO – increased peptide power | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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   You might have noticed on their website that many facetheory products now come as original version and as PRO version, in which according to the brand “their peptide power was increased”. For some that meant the addition of peptides to previously peptide-free products, for others like the facetheory Polypep Collagen Boosting Serum Pro, that additional peptides were added to enhance performance.…

Alpha-H High Tide Water Cream – Unexpected | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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 admit the Alpha-H High Tide Water Cream felt a little out of season for me when I received it, given that we are heading into winter here and most of my water based lightweight textures have been rotated out until next spring.     But as the brand is Australian it makes more sense – they are headed into summer…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   I have mentioned the facetheory Exaglow Serum in three different posts already without giving you a proper review, and the only explanation I have is that I received it at the end of summer when I usually switch the focus of my routine to fighting hyperpigmentation.

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   I can’t imagine you have NOT heard of The Ordinary Soothing & Barrier Support Serum yet, the bright pink serum has been all over the internet for weeks now.
