Before you start reading this review, if you want to know my stance on MLMs (anti, in short) and why I still buy from Avon, I’ll direct you to this post.
Avon products can be hit or miss, but some of the greatest hits really knock it out of the park. I’m not (nor have I ever been) an Avon consultant (nor do I have anyone to direct you to), but I’ve tried my share of Avon products and the Anew line seems to be consistently good, so when I saw they had a retinol specific serum, I had to try it.
Glow Recipe has been quite popular in the last few years, hasn’t it? I have tried some things from their Watermelon line but that one was so trendy and talked about that I felt my reviews wouldn’t add that much to what was already said about it. The Avocado line, on the other hand, could use more attention.
I’m going to give spoilers right off the bat: this brand is fantastic. Whatever the product, you can always rely on Paula’s Choice. And I’m not saying this because this is a hidden sponsored post (honestly, I wish) or because I’m trying to grab the brand’s attention (I’m aware of my irrelevancy), I’m saying this because Paula’s Choice is that good.
Medik8. Here’s a brand that I came to know and instantly related to their branding, their mission and their marketing. Also, the name is sort of pun-ny, so obviously they started off on the right foot with me.
Gender neutral, ingredient focused, inexpensive and TikTok famous. Sounds like The Ordinary good, right? Over the past few months, I’ve been testing out quite an assortment of The Inkey List’s skincare products to see if they can make my skin look as Gen Z as the audience they market to.
The Ordinary -the brand that hasn’t stopped making headlines since it launched. The Ordinary is a sub-brand of Deciem, a company that houses ten different brands, all launched at the same time in 2013. Its tagline isn’t “The Abnormal Beauty Company” for nothing.
