Used-up and tested #26 – beauty products leaving my collection

Finally, January is over. It’s one of the longest months of the year (at least that’s how it feels like) and it always just makes me sad because I think back on all the shit that happened the year before, how another year has gone by and I still couldn’t do anything to change my…

Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion Age Defying Exfoliator review

It took me some time to get to do a review on this exfoliator since I got it in my Lookfantastic Black Friday box. It’s the first product I got to try from the Dr. Brandt brand. Dr. Frederic Brandt began his career as a cancer researcher at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Hospital in New York,…

Medik8 Hydr8 B5 Liquid Rehydration Serum

This was the first time that I heard about this UK brand and I’m very happy that I got this serum in my advent calendar. The brand was founded by Elliot Isaacs, who studied physiology, pharmacology and biochemistry and started a small lab in his dad’s pharmacy to create a cosmeceutical skin care brand. They…

Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Therapies Mayan Vanilla and Orange Blossom review

My experience with the first Philip Kinsley product I used which was a styling gloss was not a good one because it made my hair look horrible. I wouldn’t have given this brand another chance just because it doesn’t seem to cater to oily hair, but since I got a travel size of this deep-conditioning…

Ecooking Vitamin C Serum review

I think that vitamin C is something that we all should have included in our skin care routine. That’s why I was happy about getting this serum in my advent calendar, although I’m not the biggest fan of the Ecooking brand (I think they’re overpriced to be honest). I had a travel size of this…

Filorga Time-Filler Absolute Wrinkle Correction Cream review

I remember I used a facemask from Filorga and I can’t say I wasn’t impressed with it, but now I got a face cream in the advent calendar in a travel size and the experience was definitely much more interesting, especially since I love good anti-aging products. Packaging: The full size contains 50 ml and…

Tan-Luxe Super Glow Hyaluronic Self-Tan Serum review

Tan-Luxe was founded by Marc Elrick in Glasgow and it’s a brand focused on combining skin care with tanning ingredients that are good for the skin and that can also help have that special glow tan all year round. This particular serum is meant to provide a gradual while delivering some skin care ingredients at…

Caudalie Vinopure Purifying Gel Cleanser review

Caudalie is one of those brands that sounds “French fancy” (I mean, it is French) that is also a bit overpriced because it sounds so fancy and not because the products are really worth the higher price tag. It’s also not as expensive as not being able to splurge a little bit now and then,…

REN Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic review

I usually don’t do reviews on toners just because I don’t feel like they do much for the skin and I use them just like and extra step to clean my face in the morning or in the evening. But this time is different, because this toner works like a skin treatment. REN is an…

Used-up and tested #25 – beauty products leaving my collection

I hope you all had a great start of the year and let’s hope 2021 will be an awesome year, one when we will finally beat this damn pandemic. And since it’s always good to start the year leaving all the trash behind, here’s what I used up in December. Spoiler alert: mostly travel sizes.…
