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   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

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   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

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 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…

Vegreen 730 Daily Moisture Cream – Better late then never | 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   Fun fact – whenever I look for the brand Vegreen online, the first thing I see is an advertisement for the VeGreen Vegan Fusion restaurant in Duluth. Now nothing against vegan fusion cuisine, but I am here to talk about Vegreen, the skincare brand, and specifically about their 730 Daily Moisture Cream that I loved so much I finished it (and…

Balea Beauty Expert Night Cream with 0,3% Retinol and 2% Bakuchiol – Untrue! | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN THIS POST ARE PURCHASED MYSELF AND LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER I dislike misleading claims on the label anyway, but in case of the Balea Beauty Expert Night Cream with 0,3% Retinol and 2% Bakuchiol it really annoys me. Why? Because the main approach of the Beauty Expert line is to focus on effective ingredients, which would be great – if they did it with this cream.     Ingredients like Retinol for example…

fresh Black Tea Corset Cream Firming Moisturizer – Long time ago | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN THIS POST ARE PURCHASED MYSELF AND LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   The fresh Black Tea Corset Cream Firming Moisturizer is just one out of three different moisturizers in the fresh Black Tea line and is specifically aimed at sagging skin, promising an instant lifting effect. Similar to what a corset would do, I assume, as it pulls everything in tight, adding structure and definition to previously soft tissue.     I am no…
