Klairs All-day Airy Sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++ was a much anticipated product since the previous version was pulled off the virtual shelves in 2021. The original (white bottle) had a cult following, but does the new one live up to the expectations?

PURITO recently came out with two brand new products - PURITO Dermide Relief Barrier Moisturizer and PURITO Dermide Balancing Barrier Balm. I reviewed the balm here, so today let’s talk about the moisturizer. It is available on Amazon, YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT), and Stylevana (code INF10KBH). PURITO Dermide Relief Barrier Moisturizer features five different types of ceramides at 5,000 ppm

This is a sponsored post with affiliate links. All opinions are my own and honest. I genuinely love PURITO and get very excited about new launches. PURITO Dermide Balancing Barrier Balm was an especially welcomed addition to my skincare routine because I didn’t have any robust moisturizers in my rotation at the time (only gel creams). The balm can be purchased on Amazon, YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT), and Stylevana (code INF10KBH). PURITO Dermide Balancing Barrier Balm is v

But now, especially in the last two years or so, brands keep releasing wonderful, gentle cleansers, and I actually enjoy the process of face washing. It became a relaxing nightly ritual to end the work-filled part of my day. One of my favorite foaming cleansers of 2021/2022 is CosRx Pure Fit Cica

This is a sponsored post with affiliate links. All opinions are my own and honest. PURITO is an old favorite of mine - I still remember when they only had three serums in their lineup, with peel-off labels on the pump bottles. A lot has changed since then - the brand now has international celebrity status with a huge assortment of skincare. What hasn’t changed is my love for their effective formulas. PURITO recently released two new wash off masks. I already reviewed the clay

This is a sponsored post with affiliate links. All opinions are my own and honest. A lot has changed in my life in the last five years, but one thing hasn’t - there’s always a PURITO product (or two or three!) on my bathroom sink. I used PURITO long before I had my own blog or before they were an internationally recognized brand. I still remember when they only had three serums in their lineup. PURITO recently released two new masks, today’s review is for PURITO Bentolin Pore

It also contains niacinamide, panthenol, allantoin, centella and its derivatives to help with pigmentation, irritation, and the overall condition of the skin. I could only find it on Amazon.

Vegreen is a fairly new to me brand, but I was very impressed with their vegan mucin products - toner (review here), serum (review here) and cream (review here). The most recent addition to the Vegreen family is Vegreen Fragrance-free Cica Serum. It’s available on Amazon, eBay, and Oshen Skin (discount code KBHOBBIT10).

This post contains affiliate links. Product provided by Wishtrend Chasin’ Rabbits Green Golden Ruler is an antioxidant-rich moisturizer that promises to soothe and supply moisture without stickiness. The marketing materials also say it will “release wastes and toxins from the skin”, but I’m skeptical about that part. The cream is available on YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT), Amazon, and Wishtrend (code LUCY15). I did a little digging around to figure out why it’s called “gold

This post contains affiliate links. Whamisa puzzles me - they always nail the packaging, but the contents are a hit and miss for me. Typically marketed as organic, natural, vegan and cruelty free (that part is awesome), they are often full of essential oils and have strong scents that can be irritating to sensitive skin. My skin isn’t sensitive, but this is a good example of how “natural” isn’t always better for everyone and can still cause issues. A few months ago, I got a w

This post contains affiliate links. Product won in a giveaway. I won a huge CosRx Best Sellers package in the summer of 2021. Unopened, the products do not expire until 2023-2024, so I’ve been slowly introducing them one by one so as not to overwhelm my skin (and because once you open a skincare item, the expiration clock of 6-12 months starts to tick). I’m ready to review COSRX Advanced Snail 92 All in One Cream. It’s available on YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT), official Co

I used to get intimidated by the supposedly unstable formulas and the risk of oxidation. But now vitamin C serums are a constant part of my morning routine. I’m currently using By Wishtrend Pure Vitamin C 21.5% Advanced Serum, available on Wishtrend (code LUCY15), YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT) and the official Wishtrend Amazon store

Mary & May Idebenone + Blackberry Complex Serum, available on Oshen Skin (use KBHOBBIT10 for a discount) promises to improve elasticity and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. I first heard about idebenone in skincare a couple of years ago, but never had it as a star ingredient in a

I used and loved their midnight recovery cream, so it made sense to try the Klairs Midnight Blue Youth Activating Drops as well. These are available on Wishtrend (code LUCY15), Amazon, YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT), Stylevana (code INF10KBH), and iHerb (code CWN6107). This overnight serum feature

I’m giggling as I type this… keep reading. It’s available on Amazon and YesStyle (reward code KBHOBBIT). This product is vegan and cruelty free. That’s all I got for “pros”... My impressions Why is this called lip “moisture”? Is it a practical joke? There’s nothing moisturizing about this balm. I struggle even c

So far, everything I tried worked really well for my combination skin. My most recent find is the newly released AXIS-Y Spot the Difference Blemish Treatment, available on their official website. YesStyle also carries the brand, so check that occasionally to see when the newest product is added (and use reward code KBHOBBIT for savings). Fo

This post contains affiliate links. Product provided by the brand. I have combination skin and for about half of the year using a vitamin C serum and SPF in the morning is enough for me. However, now that it’s finally no longer summer, I like to introduce a light moisturizer before sunscreen to make sure my skin feels comfortably nourished all day and not dry or tight. I’m a long-time fan of Purito, so of course I had to try their new Purito Oat-In Calming Gel Cream. You can

So far, I’ve tried the bath bomb (review here) and a sunscreen that’s so bad I don’t even want to give it away (review here). Today’s review is for their Magic Beauty Shroom. Chasin’ Rabbits Magic Beauty Shroom is a vegan, cruelty free essence (which is somewhat hard to tell by the product name). It promises to soothe, hydrate, plump, and smooth out fine lines and wrinkle
