Tocobo Bio Watery Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA++++ – right up my street | 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 click on the video linked below, you will realize that in the introduction I claim to talk about something else than the regular Korean sunscreens and probably ask yourself: But isn’t the Tocobo Bio Watery Sun Cream SPF 50+ exactly that? A sunscreen from a Korean brand?     Yes. Yes, it is. But I had it open and…

pixi Dream-yEye Replenishing PM patches – beauty sleep | 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 think by now I have three different tubes of pixi eye patches in my fridge, the latest being the pixi Dream-yEye Replenishing PM patches. Now just to be clear, you don’t need three different ones, to be honest you don’t even need one tube to have a good skincare routine, and you surely don’t need to keep them in the…

The Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil – magic | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: 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 If a website uses words like “trifecta” to describe the results of their product as Biossance does when talking about their Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil,  I admit I instantly expect something magical to happen. It might be just me as non-native speaker, but I only hear the word trifecta used in a clerical context, not regularly as part of a skincare…

innisfree Intensive Hydrating Toner with Green Tea Seed – Special? | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN THIS POST ARE PR (GIFTED), THE TONER ITSELF WAS PURCHASED MYSELF AND LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   As someone that grew up in the 80s/ early 90s, things like the innisfree Intensive Hydrating Toner with Green Tea Seed will never stop to amaze me. In my formative years toners were harsh, alcohol based fluids designed to strip your skin, and the hydrating beauties that come from Korean skincare are, compared to that,…

Clinical Skin Vitamin C Pro Collagen Serum – Worth the money? | 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 seems that testing new Vitamin C serums is kind of a hobby of mine, so I couldn’t pass on the opportunity to try the Clinical Skin Vitamin C Pro Collagen Serum although I admit, I knew that at this price point it would most likely not replace my current favorite.     Pricewise it costs about the same as the cult…

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner – good for acne? | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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   According to the website, the Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner is inspired by the Korean Aqua Peel Facial in that it exfoliates and hydrates at the same time. To achieve that, it features both PHAs or Polyhydroxy Acids, big exfoliating acids that are really gentle because they don’t penetrate the skin as deep as Glycolic Acid for…

fresh Black Tea Age-Delay Eye Concentrate – Butter in a jar | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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 blame it on the tea theme that I immediately think of butter when I look at the fresh Black Tea Age-Delay Eye Concentrate. Afternoon tea – scones – butter… Does that make sense? Or is it just that I am quite hungry at the moment and would think about food anyway? I am not sure.     Anyway, the fresh…

fresh Kombucha Facial Treatment Essence – Brighter smoother skin with tea? | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: SOME 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 am a huge fan of tea in various flavors – I drink black, green and white tea, I drink it plain, with sugar, with milk, but somehow Kombucha, the star in the fresh Kombucha Facial Treatment Essence, never really grew on me. At least not as beverage.     Kombucha is fermented black tea, and besides the benefits of fermented…

La Roche Posay Cicaplast Spray B 5 – Underrated | Doctors Review

PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER &nbsp: Out of the La Roche Posay Cicaplast line, the La Roche Posay Cicaplast B 5 Spray surely is not the best known one. I bet most of you would immediately think of the La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume B 5 (full review here) or maybe even the La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume B 5 SPF 50 (full review here) that was released…

First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser – Pearly white and gentle | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: PRODUCTS DISCUSSED IN THIS BLOGPOST ARE PURCHASED MYSELF AND LINKS USED ARE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   When it comes to cleansers, texture and scent is as important to me as the actual performance is – I love something luxurious for the mundane task of getting rid of the daily makeup and grime, it helps me unwind at night. Now the First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser is unscented, but the texture, a pearly white whipped cream like…
