PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   A skincare device with gold-plated needles that promises to deliver active ingredients deep into your skin—without pain, trauma, or risk of infection? As someone who’s always been skeptical about at-home microneedling, I had my doubts. But the Qure Micro-Infusion System claims to solve many of my concerns.     So, does it actually work, or is it just another overhyped gadget?…

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   Geek and Gorgeous released their new high strength retinal recently, the Geek and Gorgeous A-Game 20. It is one of the two strongest budget retinal serums available at the moment, with only Medik8 offering a 0.24% concentration at a much higher price point.     But is it worth your money, what changed compared to the other A-Game products and how…

innisfree Intensive Hydrating Cream with Green Tea Seed Review: Hydration for Dry 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   You shouldn’t confuse the innisfree Intensive Hydrating Cream with Green Tea Seed and the innisfree Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Acid Cream as despite very the similar name, one is made for dry skins and the other is apparently much more lightweight.     I have however only tried the Intensive Hydrating Cream with Green Tea Seed, the one made with dry…

Vegreen Fragrance-Free Cica Serum – soothing the skin | 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   In a world full of skincare actives that exfoliate, stimulate and do whatever else we want them to do, one thing often gets overlooked: The power of hydration and soothing for skin that looks (and feels!) its best. The Vegreen Fragrance-Free Cica Serum is one of the products that focuses only on this, not uncommon in Korean skincare brands and essential…

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

SKIN1004 Poremizing Fresh Ampoule Review: Is It the Best for Oily Skin and large pores? | 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   Ampoules are quite new in my routine, and the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Fresh Ampoule didn’t quite fit into my expectations. I know that they are designed to target specific concerns, but also easily absorb, but every single one I had tried so far was very hydrating. And this one isn’t.     Why it is still my favorite product from…

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   I keep repeating “If you have acne, more than just the occasional breakout, go see a doctor and don’t try to treat it with skincare from the drugstore! It is a skin disease that very often needs medication and, if left untreated, can leave scars and harm your mental health.” (More info: Why you have acne and how to treat it.)…

How to best use the Timeless HA Matrixyl 3000 Rose Spray in your skincare routine | Doctor Anne 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   Peptides are all the rage in an anti-aging skincare routine, especially the ones claiming to boost collagen production like the ones from the Matrixyl complex. But when packed into a facial spray rather than a serum like the Timeless HA Matrixyl 3000 Rose Spray, how much of the beneficial ingredients will actually reach your skin? And how do you best incorporate…

Does the SKIN1004 Poremizing Clear Toner Really Minimize Pores? | 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   Yes, the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Poremizing Clear Toner does contain Salicylic, Glycolic and a Polyhydroxy Acid. No, I still don’t think it will have a relevant exfoliating effect. But it might influence how your pores look – through a different pathway, not through exfoliation.     We have talked about pore size and how their appearance can be influenced before already,…
