Serum

The Oskia Super 16 Advanced Nutri-Active Collagen Serum is one of the best all-in-one anti-aging serums I’ve used in a while

I’m on the last dregs of my bottle of the Oskia Super 16 Advanced Nutri-Active Collagen Serum, and I’m already dreading the day that I squeeze out the last drop.

This serum was a game-changer for me, when I was looking to treat my skin after a long bout of neglect. It was what reminded me that I did not need a drastic change in routine to care for my skin, nor a long, elaborate routine.

What I needed was a good skincare product, and a comfortable moisturiser to seal in the goodness, and all would be well.

Absolutely blown away by the CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum – you’d be too!

Let me preface this by saying that I haven’t used a Vitamin C serum in about 3, or maybe even 4, months. So, I’m quite primed to notice any difference in my skin when I reintroduce this star ingredient into my skincare routine with the CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum.

I try to mention things like this, because my personal belief is that it’s impossible for every new product you add into your routine to make your skin better each time. At some point, it will reach its optimum, and it then becomes maintenance.

When I popped open this new tube of the CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum, it was quite an exciting thing for me haha! 😀 I haven’t been excited about new skincare for a while!

There are a few unique points about this product that I found interesting, and also to watch out for (so you don’t make the mistakes I did!) and I think these unique factors help this product be a better one. Let me explain 😉

Products I finished recently: 4 I enjoyed and 2 I won’t repurchase

I’ve used up some products recently, and it’s opportune to share what I thought about them after finishing them to the last drop, as there were a couple that didn’t quite blow me away. Yet, they didn’t quite merit a post on their own, if you get what I mean.

There was one that surprised me, as it sort of grew on me the more I used it. Wasn’t impressed initially, but by the end of its life, I was happy enough with it that I was contemplating repurchasing! 🙂

1 dropper of the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchroized Multi-Recovery Complex serum and you can just call it a night

It’s probably no secret that I’m a fan of the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum. I know it’s not everyone’s favourite, and I often get people telling me they don’t understand why I like it, or that it is overpriced.

But it’s a product that’s consistently worked for me, and it’s one that I find pleasure in using. So really, it should just be that – different products work for different people!

Some time last year, the iconic little brown bottle underwent another reformulation. Truth to tell, I’ve lost count. I think the last one was the Synchronized Recovery Complex II? Or am I mistaken?

Anyway, the new version of the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair serum is now called Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex, and I was kindly gifted a bottle a long while ago to have a go. Yes, I’m tardy, it’s a flaw 😛

I was curious just how the reformulation (if that) might make this iconic serum feel any different on skin, especially since I haven’t used it for a while.
