Let’s talk skincare

Good morning! Another morning, another beauty routine to do. Unlike other mornings, this one is quite exciting, because I got some new products last night.

1.Pixi Glow Tonic

Toner with ginseng and fructose is perfect for normal to dry, dull and aging skin. Oxygenating and exfoliating the facial glow tonic helps tone, firm and tighten the skin, it also removes dead skin cells for healthier looking skin.
I have used it already. Last night, swiped across my face, after that I applied Weleda Skin Food rich cream. Morning result- no shiny face, skin looks cleaner. I’ll test it over the next month and share results on here. Stay tuned!


  1. Weleda Skin Food cream

Unique, ultra-rich whole-body cream that deeply hydrates, restores and protects your skin. This is deep-penetrating replenishing skin repair cream for dry patches of skin and for added winter protection. Stubborn dryness on your elbows, hands and feet are moisturised and conditioned with the essential fatty acids and vitamin E in organic sunflower seed oil. Organic pansy is known for its mild antiseptic properties that calm dry irritation. Soothing rosemary leaf extract’s mild antiseptic properties and the anti-inflammatory properties of biodynamic and organic calendula flower extract gently nourish and care for your skin.

Surprisingly I use it for my face, at nightime. It’s very rich and leaves film on skin, which I find too thick as for daytime. I have applied it on my shoulders before and I have to admit, it gave them this glow that I really liked.
Victoria Beckham in the Interview for Into The Gloss said she uses this cream herself and swears by it. Big plus- it’s so affordable.

  1. Tony Moly Egg Pore

Steam balm formulated with egg shell powder a rich source of calcium, minerals, acetic acid and vitamins, charcoal powder that detoxes skin and purges any impurities and vitamin E which conditions and nourishes skin, it works rapidly to shrink pores, boost skins hydration, fight blackheads, brighten skin.
I only use it on my nose and area next to it. The reason behind it is, when I washed my whole face, I had lots of breakouts the next day. Using it on my nose gives a nice effect. Nothing groundbreaking, but I think I should use it more often to give it a chance.

  1. EMBRYOLISSE Lait-Crème Concentrate

  1. DR JART+
    Dermask Water Jet Vital Hydra Solution

Made of fine cellulose fibre, this lightweight, transparent mask allows pores to fully absorb essential nutrients and moisturising ingredients for an ultimate hydration therapy. Featruing aquaxyl – a patent moisturising ingredient- it immediately hydrates dry skin and strengthens barrier function. Ultra-low molecular weight hyaluronic acid activates moisture with high absorption, and seaweed extract, which containins algeinicacids, effectively removes impurities.
I did it just then, while I was typing this. It feels nice, looks nice. Good value for money, I think, but not a groundbreaking product. Skin is more moisturized and glowy.

  1. Caudalie beauty elixirIMG_4189

Favoured by A-list celebrities and in-demand make-up artists, this plant-based complexion treatment has reached legendary status thanks to its multitude of benefits:

  • Smooths away fine lines
  • Tones and tightens pores
  • Instantly boosts radiance
  • Sets makeup

Here, I invite you to read what it says on the website.

  1. Perfectly sets make-up
    Use as a priming base and setting spray to keep each step of your make-up application in place for a long-lasting, smooth finish.
  2. Tones the complexion
    Spray after cleansing to prepare your skin for treatments to follow, like serums and moisturisers.
  3. Instantly revitalises
    Spritz throughout the day for an instant pick-me-up to re-energise your skin and senses. (Tip: Keep cold in the fridge for a refreshing skin-awakening.)
  4. Complexion perfection
    Calm redness post workout, set midday make-up touch ups, quench thirsty skin whilst flying, and more with this must-have mist for those who are always on the move.

It’s advertised to be amazing and beyond. I used it just once for now, I’ll keep testing it out and share my thought later on. What I notice straight away is the fragrance. Very herbal, very strong. It’s like Aesop notes.
But yeah, after using it for a month, I’ll come back here, looking like ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY. So you better go and get your elixir! You don’t wanna miss out.
