Trying the Dior Capture Youth Glow Booster Serum reminded me of the perils of being a beauty blogger

Some time last year, Dior released a range of serums that you could customize to your skin needs. It was reminiscent of the Bobbi Brown Remedies range, and was a luxury brand’s answer to the plethora of more affordable brands catering to a similar need for customization.

I recently had the opportunity to try one of the more interesting ones (to me), when I found a bottle of the Dior Capture Youth Glow Booster Age-Defying Illuminating Serum in an event goodie bag.

I like products that promise a glow and radiance, and when I saw that it contained Vitamin C, I was very intrigued. It was opportune that I had just finished the Vitamin C serum I was using, so I decided to put this to the test.

About 2.5 weeks in, I was reminded of the perils I face as a blogger, trying new skincare LOL!

You will be quite happy to use the Omorovicza Daily Vitamin C Serum every day if budget permits

It’s no secret by now that I’m a huge huge fan of using Vitamin C serums. While I struggle with other active ingredients, Vitamin C has delivered quick and visible results that have impressed me.

Naturally therefore, any new Vitamin C serum in the market grabs my interest, and the Omorovicza Daily Vitamin C serum is no exception!

I was very fortunate to be introduced the new Omorovicza Daily Vitamin C serum at a media launch, and thereafter, to spend some time using it, before I could form an opinion.

Late last year, I had the privilege of trotting off to a media event for the launch of 2 new serums in the exlusive Chanel Sublimage range, which I shared with you in great depth here.

I also had the distinct privilege of trying out both new serums – the Sublimage l’Essence Fondamentale, which I’ve already shared, and the Sublimage l’Essence Lumiere.

I was using it for a month back in December, and sporadically since. I usually try new products for a month straight where possible to gauge its efficacy. Over time, I incorporate it as and when I need it, usually because there’s always something else going on.

There’s an intricate dance of products being used and tested that I can’t quite explain, but it’s all kept straight in my head, and I know how it works LOL Ah #lifeofablogger – not all glamorous, I assure you 😀

But onto the Chanel Sublimage l’Essence Lumiere – what is this and who might it be for?
