The Inkey List Retinol : For the times when the budget is tight but you want something effective

May 11, 2020 Paris B 12 Comments

I’ve used a few products from The Inkey List since they launched, and I must say that it is an affordable brand that impresses me. I have since lost count of the new products launched since, but I might get round to trying them some day.

One of the products that I was most keen to try back then was The Inkey List Retinol serum. The packaging was damaged in my first order, but I later reordered it, because I was started to get into retinol serums, and this fascinated me at how affordable it was!

Like all retinol serums, it takes me ages to form an opinion about them, or even to share a review, because retinol takes time to show results. It most certainly isn’t a magic wand, and it can cause more harm than good, if not properly used. Hence, I always exercise caution and I advise everyone to do the same 🙂

So, does The Inkey List Retinol Serum do anything for me?

SKINCARE TIP: Get rid of milia (oil seeds) painlessly, the slow but steady way

May 7, 2020 Paris B 9 Comments

I’m not usually prone to getting milia, or oil seeds, so I never really had to figure out how to deal with it before. However, in the past year, I’ve experienced it twice, and gotten rid of them twice, with very good results.

So, I decided to share how I did it. But with a caveat.

My method isn’t quick and may not be for those with very sensitive skin. I therefore advise that you proceed with caution, and adjust your expectations and products accordingly. Remember to always work within your own tolerance.

And now, here’s how I do it 🙂

The Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm is well deserving of a permanent place in my cleansing balm Hall of Fame

I’m going to spoil this review for everyone and say this : I don’t know if I can use another cleansing balm after this Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm, simply because I love it so much!

I have enjoyed using it so much, I’m toying with the idea of repurchasing. This, despite knowing that I have other cleansing balms or creams in my stash waiting to be used up. I don’t even want to consider using another, and just want to savour every last bit of this balm.

It is that good, and that addictive! 😀
