If you are a makeup girl like me, you know that no matter how many times dermatologists/skincare experts/instructions on the back of sunscreen packaging tell you to reapply your sunscreen, that ain’t gonna happen. How am I going to put an SPF cream on top of a powdered and mascara-ed face? I won’t. So you can see how an SPF setting spray is filling out an obvious market gap.
Review | Honest Beauty Gentle Gel Cleanser
I’ve realised I have never featured an Honest Beauty product in my blog, and I have tried quite a few. Well, now’s the time to change that. Plus, I feel there needs to be more reviews out there of “clean beauty” brands from a dirty beauty lover like me.
Review | UpCircle Coffee Face Scrub – Floral Blend for Sensitive Skin
I’ve seen this product pop up in a few reels/tik toks/youtube shorts and being highly recommended, mostly because the brand is gravely environmentally conscious. Well, I happen to own this product, and its popularity prompted me to write a review, not so much as to give my two cents but more as to publish a public service announcement.
Review | Medik8 Advance Day Ultimate Protect SPF50+ Sunscreen
After retiring my Fenty Hydra Vizor and deciding not to use it until winter, I moved on to another moisturizing sunscreen. I’ve reviewed Medik8 as a brand before and I mentioned I would be interested to try a sunscreen next, particularly because they live by the CSA motto (vitamin C, sunscreen, vitamin A). This was the time to try their highest protection one.
Brand Review | Verso (Daily Glow, Night Cream, Super Eye Serum, Eye Cream)
Last year, when I was pregnant, I was barred from using retinol. Now I’m making up for lost time. That’s why I’m reviewing Verso, a brand that revolves around promoting the use of retinol in every skincare routine.
Review | COSRX Master Patch Original Fit Blemish Cover
I haven’t been afflicted with pimples in a really long time (not all is bad with pregnancy hormones) so when three of them decided to show up at the same time, it was time to bring out the big guns. I had these patches stored for something like this and now was the time to try them.
Review | Fenty Skin Hydra Vizor Invisible Moisturizer SPF30
‘Tis the season for sunscreen, they say (they wrong, because sunscreen is an year-round necessity, but summer seems to bring a peak in interest). I’m trying out some new moisturizing sunscreens and I plan to bring you on this journey by reviewing them all. Let’s start with Fenty’s Hydra Vizor.
Review | Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Sleepair Intensive Mask
Some reviews I write because there aren’t any out there on that particular product, some I write because the products are trendy, and some I write because they are either exceptionally good or bad, and I need to tell the world about them. The Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Sleepair Intensive Mask is a product that falls in the last category.
The Maskerade Ball #3 | 4 Quick Reviews of… Vitamin C Sheet Masks! (Sephora, Beauty Pro, Beauty Formulas, Nip+Fab)
Between the 1st and 2nd Maskerade Ball posts, two years have passed. Between the 2nd and 3rd, just 2 weeks. Can you tell I’m going through my skincare stash? Another area in my life where I have too much stuff. The good thing about it is the amount of reviews I’m able to write.
Review, Swatches, Comparison | Supergoop! Glow Screen and Unseen Sunscreen
Supergoop (not to be confused or assumed to be a spin-off of Goop, the vagina-smelling candle manufacturer) is a beauty brand dedicated to sunscreen, particularly by finding ways to get people to incorporate SPF in their routine. And dedicated they are. Sunscreen never looked so different.
