Omorovicza Daily Vitamin C – the one for sensitive skin? | Ask Doctor Anne

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THE PRODUCTS MENTIONED IN THIS POST WERE PURCHASED BY ME. LINKS USED MIGHT BE AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER   Despite using the brand Omorovicza on and off for years, I realized I never reviewed one of their products on here. And no, it is NOT because the name is a tongue twister, it is more because although the products are lovely, they rarely made it into my regular routine.     I have a friend though that swears by…

Is the Timeless 20% Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid Serum worth the hype? | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS PRODUCT WAS PURCHASED WITH MY OWN MONEY. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE THE BLOGPOST. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER Whenever I talk about Vitamin C Serums, there is one that appears as a recommendation in my comments: The Timeless 20% Vitamin C + E Ferulic Acid, apparently a cult favorite for many in the US.     It is not readily available in Germany, so I had to have it shipped over with my wishtrend order, but you know me – if everyone tells me that something is…

Purito Pure Vitamin C Serum and Plainet Squalane Oil 100 | Doctors Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST CONTAINS GIFTED ITEMS (PR) AND USES AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER.  So, what’s new from Purito? Or rather, what was new from Purito in the first half of 2021 that I am only now getting around to review because… yeah, because reasons? It is the Purito Pure Vitamin C Serum, not to be confused with their previous Vitamin C serum that contained 10 % Ascorbic Acid. The old one has been discontinued and has been replaced by this…

Geek & Gorgeous 101 C-Glow Serum | Doctors Review

This blog post uses affiliate links and PR-Samples (gifted items). I received no money to write it. Please read disclaimer. My search for the perfect Vitamin C serum has been well-documented on here, and whenever I told you guys about why my latest acquisition hadn’t quite lived up to my (admittedly high) expectations, there was one that was recommended over and over: The Geek & Gorgeous 101 C-Glow Serum.     So when someone in the comments told me that Geek & Gorgeous is a Hungarian brand and even has…

Is the pixi Clarity Lotion good for oily skin? | Doctor Anne

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST CONTAINS GIFTED ITEMS (PR) AND USES AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER. One of the questions I get repeatedly is: What is the best moisturizer for oily skin? And while I have addressed the question whether or not you actually need a moisturizer if your skin is oily (see the blogpost here) or shared my picks in my skincare routines – spoiler: In the summer I skip the cream and only use a sunscreen – I figured I would…

The Inkey List 15% Vitamin C and EGF Brightening Serum Review | Doctor Anne

Advertisement info: This blog post contains PR-Samples (gifted items) and affiliate links. I received no money to write it. Please read disclaimer. Fancy ingredients are no longer limited to high priced brands it seems – The Inkey List recently released their 15% Vitamin C and EGF Brightening Serum to prove that. EGF stands for Epidermal Growth Factor and is one of the up and coming buzz ingredients for 2020. I will go into more detail about what they can (and can not) do later, but so far they were found…

Combining Vitamin C with other ingredients like Retinol – #AskDoctorAnne

This is part 2 of a three part series, so here is a little introduction to the topic and a link to the other parts:  There are a few questions I get over and over in the comments of my videos, so instead of answering them only individually, I figured I would use them for a new series – #AskDoctorAnne. Which sounds pretty catchy if I dare say so myself. And the first topic I wanted to address is: Combining skincare ingredients.     Are there ones that you should…

Avon Distillery Complete Overview

Advertisement info: This blog post contains PR-Samples (gifted items) and affiliate links. I received no money to write it. Please read disclaimer. There were many trends last that will accompany us into the next decade, “clean beauty” and “sustainability” being two of them. So it is no surprise that more and more brands try to position themselves as supporters of one or even both – my latest example? The launch of the “clean, green, vegan friendly” Avon Distillery line, all packaged in sustainable packaging as the brand claims.    …

pixi Vitamin C Lotion Review

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST USES AFFILIATE LINKS AND CONTAINS PR-SAMPLES (GIFTED ITEMS). I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER.   Todays review of the pixi Vitamin C Lotion marks my last in a long line that started quite some time ago with the pixi Vitamin Wakeup Mist (Review here). I admit I hadn´t thought about that one in a while, as that product was released years ago, but apparently pixi are building more and more whole lines around their hero products, and I am here for…

Ingredient Spotlight Vitamin C

I sound like a broken record, I know, but I really want to talk some more about Vitamin C and everything there is to know about it. Why? Well, because it is easily one of my favorite skincare ingredients, and one that I recommend over and over again. You remember that Instagram Stories Template popular in the last few weeks that made you choose between two ingredients, always pairing the ones that you picked against each other until you were left with one hero ingredient? Vitamin C was always among…
