I have been buying this since March 2021 as recommended by my dermatologist as I was starting on isotretinoin and my skin was going to dry out. I've used plenty of lip balms in the past but I feel like this one is the best. It has an angled applicator which makes it easier to apply. And that a little goes along away because if you accidentally use too much, it tastes kinda gross. I probably go through a tube every 6 weeks as my lips are really bad but it's definitely worth the money and it regularly goes on sale. It's small and compact so can easily fit into small pockets. If my lips are really bad, sometimes I get a bit of a tingly sensation but that goes away soon enough. Downside due to wearing masks as there isn't as much airflow, that my lips dry out a little bit quicker and have t apply more frequently than when I'm not wearing a mask.

This brand was recommended to me by my dermatologist as my skin was becoming dry and I need something good to combat the dryness. My skin is also a bit sensitive and I have redness. I primarily use it on my face and you don't need too much to cover it nicely. I had the 226g bottle and a small squeeze should do the trick and if you had too much, can always use it on your hands and neck. There was no lasting smell and it didn't feel too heavy. I do use it on my body from time to time but I have other preferred stronger ones. I had no reactions to it but that would be dependent on the person's skin. I would use it again and have already bought my second bottle.

I bought this thinking that it was the Sunsense INVISIBLE sunscreen. The packaging is pretty similar so it was easy to mistake it for the wrong one. And honestly, I found this one a waste of my money. It was so thick and really hard to apply. Definitely not the consistency you'd think sunscreen should be. As this is the visible version, you are meant to be able to see it but the white tint is just ridiculous after spending ages trying to blend it on my skin. The only good thing about it is the size of the packaging. Its a handy size that you could fit into a small bag and easy to squeeze the product out.

This was recommended to me by my dermatologist. My KP has never really bothered me but if I could get it to not look so bad, I'll try it. I originally had some sample sachets but then bought the proper size because even only after a few days of twice-daily applying the product, my arms look so much better. And even if you don't have KP, it is great for those with dry skin too. While the bottle isn't cheap, using it once or twice a day, it will last you ages.

When I saw the words "micro peeling" I was thinking that it would do a literal mini peel on my face and clean my skin. All I noticed was that the gel was foaming up where my pores are the worst, nose and forehead. I also noticed it smelt like peppermint foot cream and had to double-check a few times that I was in fact using a face cleanser. But the smell did go away pretty quickly. I have combination/oily skin so I didn't find it too drying but definitely apply moisturizer when you get out of the shower. For the price, I don't think I would buy it again and you can find other cleansers that are better.

I used this in the shower every morning to remove any remaining Vicks and oils built up on my face overnight. It's very easy to use. Three pumps into the palm of your hand (Try and keep your hand dry at this point), rub it in circular motions on your face, THEN wet your hands and repeat and the product "activates" and starts to turn white. And then simply remove with a washcloth. I didn't notice a smell or anything with the product. I did notice however the pump didn't always want to work and towards the end of the bottle, it was impossible to pump the product out so I had to pour it on my hand and that just wasted some product as it was too easy to pour out too much. On the times that I used it to remove my makeup, I found it about 90% successful in removing it and I only wear powder foundation. It could be a little drying straight after using but it isn't long until my skin felt normal again.

I have a long face so sometimes I find single-use face masks don't always fit quite right. Despite this looking like standard one, it fits better than most masks and there was plenty of space around the eyes and mouth that made it more comfortable to wear. The packaging was a tad difficult to open despite two rips on either side to help you open it. Would be better if you had scissors on hand to open it. I found there was a bit too much excess serum in the packaging, though you can just apply it elsewhere on your body to use it up. There were no overpowering smells nor did it aggravate my skin in any way. Though I did have a slight tingle sensation halfway through, it shouldn't have a reaction to anyone's skin. My skin looked lovely after. My redness was definitely subdued. Felt a little bit sticky but that went away not long after. I also have oily skin and it doesn't take long for the oil to start producing after my cleansed my face but it took much longer for my face to become shiny again after usage.

When I used loose powders this was my go-to brush. I always thought it was ridiculous to spend loads of money on a brush but when you use it most days on your face the money was worth it. It takes a little bit to be able to build up product nicely when you first start using it, but it gets easier over time. It takes a little while to dry when cleaning it, as it is a thick brush. I can't stay I've seen it shred any hairs.

This is the closet shade match I've found in a powder foundation. I'm quite pale, I wear the NC15, in some lights its a perfect match, others the undertone doesn't look quite right. I did get it colour matched in store. The lady that helped me that day actually took my previous makeup off and prepped my skin before testing 4 different shades. (I've had previous MAC artists just put it over my old makeup which is not a true colour match) It is super easy to apply. I use the sponge that comes with the product. I do like swipes across the product and then onto my face and then dabbing motions in places where I need extra coverage. It's not cheap at $54 a pop but it does last me months and that's with at least me wearing it 4-5 times a week, sometimes more. It's definitely a very matte product so you will need to add an extra something to your face. I personally don't coz I don't usually have time or the skills too but even adding a setting spray helps take away some of the matte. It says it absorbs oils but my skin isn't that different. My oil production rates are the same. It's roughly a medium coverage and is slightly buildable but you don't want to put too much on before it becomes cakey and starts to look gross.

When I bought this I thought yep, it will exfoliate my skin, clear my pores out and lessen the look of my blemishes. I can only say it exfoliated my skin. Even though I made sure each time I used it, roughly 3x a week, that my face was wet and I really got in there and scrubbed my face, I can't say my pores looked much better. The price point is great but honestly it's just an average exfoliator, no noticeable difference to my blemishes and it kinda dried my skin out a bit. If you do decide to buy it, make sure your face is wet before you apply the product otherwise its gonna hurt like crazy,
