e.l.f. Blemish Breakthrough Blemish Calming Water Cream Review: Effective and hydrating? | Doctor Anne

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   As someone that struggled with acne for most of my adult life, I know how difficult finding the right moisturizer can be. The e.l.f. Blemish Breakthrough Blemish Calming Water Cream sounds like it could be the one: Hydrating, but not suffocating and heavy, calming to counteract the irritating potential of acne treatments and preventative in itself.     But does it…

The Inkey List 10% Urea Dry and Rough Skin Solution – Claims | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   When I tell you The Inkey Lists 10% Urea Moisturizer – Dry and Rough Skin Solution reminds me of a foot cream, but in a good way, that isn’t really going to sell it to you, is it?     It isn’t the texture, just to be clear, the texture is lovely and not similar to the really thick stuff I…

elf Pure Skin Moisturizer – I am a snob | 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 am really fuzzy when it comes to moisturizers, so the elf Pure Skin Moisturizer didn’t have it easy convincing me. Not that I have found many bad moisturizers during my years of testing skincare, on the contrary. I have found many that do exactly what they are supposed to do, and most of them do that quite well.    …

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Probio-Cica Enrich Cream – Smooth | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   Strengthening the skin barrier is a claim we hear quite often these days, and the SKIN1004 Probio-Cica Enrich Cream is no exception. Now there are different ways a product could aim to do that, and one of them is by replacing the skins lipids needed to form that healthy barrier.     Or, as the website puts it, by “cloning the…

Murad Daily Defense Colloidal Oatmeal Cream – I expected to love it, but… | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   A moisturizer with a press-down lid – the Murad Daily Defense Colloidal Oatmeal Cream and I were off to a great start. Because even though I don’t have any issues with jar packaging, this version is my favorite.     With that and the other two products from the same line – the cleanser (review here) and the treatment (review here)…

Murad Quick Relief Colloidal Oatmeal Treatment – I used it wrong! | 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 have stated before that I am easily one over if a product is called treatment. In case of the Murad Quick Relief Colloidal Oatmeal Treatment the naming isn’t too far from the truth though, and explains why on the packaging it says “for eyes, face and body”.     I admit that when I first read that, I was 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…

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…

Beekman 1802 Bloom Cream Daily Face Cream – Packaging | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER The brand Beekman 1802 has a lot of features they would probably love to be mentioned here – they are certified microbiome-friendly, believe in the power of goat milk, have a kindness program – but I want to first and foremost mention the packaging of the Beekman 1802 Bloom Cream Daily Face Cream. Why that? Because it is what puts the Bloom…

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer – not Pink Sauce | 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 Just to get that out of the way, the Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Pink Juice Moisturizer has nothing to do with the infamous Pink Sauce that caused so much drama in 2022. I mean, it has to be quite some drama that even I, who spends barely any time on TikTok (and if I do it is either comedy I am watching…
