PURITO B5 Panthenol Re-barrier Cream – Twice as much | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   It took me a while to understand why the name PURITO B5 Panthenol Re-Barrier Cream rubbed me the wrong way.     It isn’t obvious at first glance, but once you know, you can‘t unsee it. Or at least I can‘t. B5 is Panthenol, just in another form of writing, meaning the name of the product is Purito Panthenol Panthenol Re-Barrier…

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Light Gel Cream Review: Ideal for Oily, Acne-Prone Skin | 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   The packaging of the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Light Gel Cream reminds me of a board game my daughter used to love. It was called “Unicorn Glitterluck”, in which 4 unicorns had to escape a rain cloud by sliding over rainbows and getting distracted by eating muffins. Why? Because I wonder if people that never outgrow their glittery unicorn phase are…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   Dark spots left on your face when the acne lesion that caused them is long gone already? Don’t you wish there was a magic cream to make them go away overnight?

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…

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.    …

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…

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

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…
