Do you like traditions? Well, I do too! And this year, I'm certainly not going to break away from them since my "Sunscreens Guides" articles are your favorites, as you've often told me. So I'm starting my 2022 Sunscreens Guide series with the Europeans ones! And this year, I tested quite a few, you'll see ;)
It's summer here. It's already 40 degrees during the day in the Emirates and it's about time I switch from my classic moisturizer to a fresher gel-cream with a quenching sorbet texture. This year, I chose the super yummy Dr.Ceuracle Vegan Kombucha Tea Gel Cream and I don't regret my choice at all! Let me tell you more about it 😉
La Roche Posay just released a face serum in the Cicaplast range, one of its most popular lines. The brand claims the new Cicaplast B5 Ultra Repair Serum is like a "bandage" product for damaged skin, in need of intense repair. Tempting, isn't it? Let me introduce you to it!
Today, let's explore the fascinating world of hanbang cosmetics! How about a product from an affordable range in this category? Yes, I know, these are rare. But they do exist! Let me introduce you to the Misa Cho Gong Jin Youngan Ampoule serum from Missha!
L'Oreal Paris Revitalift Derm Intensives 1.5% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum is one of the most popular facial hydrating serums of the past few years. In the United States, one bottle is sold every 60 seconds. Recently, L'Oréal Paris launched a version for the eye area, Revitalift Filler 2.5% [Hyaluronic Acid + Caffeine] Eye Serum. Let me introduce you to it and tell you all about my experience with it! 🙂
If you are a skincare addict, especially if you are into the luxury kind, you must have already come across the British brand 111skin. I have, but I never had the urge to "invest". I guess my "skincare intuition" was well sharpened, you'll see… I would like to introduce their hydrating serum, the Hyaluronic Acid Aqua Booster and give you my detailed thoughts about this small 20ml bottle that costs $135! (yes, you read that right)
In the "gentle cleanser that cleans without stripping but still cleans properly" category, I request the Paula's Choice Skin Recovery Softening Cream Cleanser! And boy, isn't this one a winner!!!
Recently, in my stories on my Instagram account, I did a little teasing by mentioning a Korean product that, in my opinion, was a better and more complete version than the well known and beloved Cicaplast Balm by La Roche Posay. Since that story, I've literally been bombarded with messages every day asking me to reveal the secret and finally disclose which product it is! With such a great demand, I have to tell you about this Korean hidden gem (at least in the West), the Centellian24 Madeca Cream Power Boosting Formula!
I've been wanting to try this essence for years (if nothing else, just for the packaging)(yes, I know, that's not the most important thing but LOOK AT IT 🤩). As soon as it was within my reach for ordering, I literally jumped on it! Today, I'm introducing you to the fabulous K-Beauty inspired 'The Giving Essence' from the American brand, Then I Met You!
I can see it when I look at my stats on this website, anti-aging devices fascinate you as much as me (my two articles on the topic are in my top 10 most read articles 😆). I started testing a couple of them a few years ago, first with an LED mask, and then I continued with a facial toning device using an electric micro-current, the Trinity from NuFACE. This is the same technique that we're going to focus on today with my test of the micro and nano-current based anti-aging device, the ZIIP OX!
Dr.G R.E.D. Blemish Clear Soothing Cream is a true phenomenon in South Korea. Already a bestseller for several years, when Covid hit and especially when the obligation to wear a mask became commonplace, this soothing treatment cream has become Korea's favorite SOS cream! I had to try it to see for myself if it lived up to its reputation :)
I'm so pumped to tell you about the product of today's review! It's a cult product in Asia, and its story is absolutely fascinating, especially if you're like me, a true cosmetic nerd... Let me introduce you to the most popular eye cream in Asia, the AHC Youth Lasting Real Eye Cream For Face, 9th version!
I know this last part of my 2021 Face Sunscreens Guide is highly anticipated, and for good reason. Here, we're South Korea and K-Beauty lovers! I kept you waiting, I know, but I promise, it was worth it: here are the 14 (yes, 14!) Korean sunscreen products I tried this year 😍
I must warn you. This year, I tried so many new sunscreens that it was impossible to feature them all in one article, it would have been way too long! I decided to write three separate articles, and I'm going to start today with the European sunscreens. So let's do this!
Now that you've all seen my "small " collection of cushion foundations, I have no choice but to tell you a little more about them! What are my favorites, why do I like them and what do they look like in action on my skin. So here's my best-of of Korean cushion foundations, 2021 edition!
Don't miss out on new content we publish. Hey, it could be the review, or article that helps you find the exact skincare product you were looking for.
We wouldn't want you missing out on that now, would we :)
