When I was offered the chance to try Augustinus Bader’s The Cream and The Rich Cream, I did not hesitate to say yes. This has been a brand that’s been on my radar for a while, but which I had not taken the step to try, primarily because of its cost.
Yes, it’s expensive and yes, it’s a luxury product. But I’d read so many raving reviews for The Cream, I had to know how it fares – as I’m sure you do too! 😉

I seem to have been talking about cleansing balms before they became a mainstream product, which tells you how long I’ve been around, and how great it is that we now have so many options available to us! I even have a whole Cleansing Balm repository (which I haven’t kept as updated as I should!)

The primary reason I did is because it is sunscreen, and I’m always running out of sunscreen! The other reason was curiosity. Beauty of Joseon products are incredibly affordable, which makes it very tempting to try to see if they are any good, from a skincare snob point of view 😀 It was also a good time to see if they were a decent enough budget skincare range, because a good quality budget priced skincare is always welcome.
I happened to get a few items during an online promotion a month or so ago, and immediately put most of them into my skincare rotation. What this means is that you’ll be seeing more reviews of this brand in the coming posts 😀

A while ago, I previewed the Murad Retinal Resculpt Overnight Treatment, which promises to lift sagging skin in just 2 weeks. I’d recommend reading the details and nitty gritty about the product in my earlier post, because I won’t be rehashing it here. I’d just be sharing my experience with the product.
