Jurlique Rare Rose Serum & Cream

A couple of weeks ago I was kindly gifted the Jurlique Rare Rose Serum & Cream.

The Rare Rose range is designed to intensely boost moisture to help replenish, hydrate and restore skin's radiance. 

The Jurlique Rare Rose Serum* comes packaged in a pink cardboard box with the Jurlique logo embossed on the front. Inside it contains a weighted pink frosted glass bottle that looks and feels luxurious and pretty.

The only think I did not love about the packaging is the cap, that while it protects the pump from being pressed accidentally, it does not cover the nozzle so any leftover product in it can dry out. 

Notable ingredients include nourishing Rosehip and Safflower Oils, Jurlique Rose and Dwarf Lilyturf Root extracts to protect from moisture loss (the latter being a botanical hyaluronic acid alternative); soothing Calendula and Lavender extracts, plus vitamin E.

The Jurlique Rare Rose has a beautiful scent of fresh roses and a lightweight gel texture that absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving it soft and hydrated. It has a velvety finish on the skin and also seems to reduce redness. 

The delightful rose scent lingers on the skin and can be perceived even hours later. 

Even though the Jurlique Rare Rose Serum includes oils, it never feels heavy or greasy so I believe it would make a great hydrating and soothing serum for all skin types.

The Jurlique Rare Rose Cream*, like the serum, comes packaged in a pink cardboard box with the Jurlique logo embossed on the front. The pink glass jar features smooth glass, a white cap with the Jurlique logo and a stopper inside. 

Notable ingredients include nourishing Rosehip Seed Oil and Cupuacu Butter (a botanical hyaluronic acid alternative), plus Jurlique's blend of Rose, Lavender, Marshmallow Root, and Calendula extracts for radiant and soothed skin.

The Rare Rose Cream has a beautiful rose fragrance (although slightly warmer and less intense than the serum) however, it is also perceivable a couple of hours after application. I believe this is due to the slow-releasing microcapsules of Jurlique Rose Extract, which continue to moisturise the skin throughout the day. 

Only a small amount is needed to cover the whole face and neck. It has a medium consistency and does not feel heavy on my oily skin, providing light moisture without looking or feeling greasy. It leaves skin with a very glowy, hydrated and radiant appearance.

Athough it is designed for normal to dry skin, I believe it would also be suitable for oily skin even if only used as a night cream.

Have you tried Jurlique products?

The Kills live at Rough Trade East

       

On Monday we went to see The Kills' new album God Games presentation at Rough Trade East in London.

I've been following their musical journey for about 15 years and have seen them live with Dotcito at the Roundhouse a few years ago but this was a completely different experience and much more intimate as, even though the event sold out, only had 300 people capacity.

It was amazing, we heard a couple of songs off the yet-to-be-released album (including Going to Heaven, Love and Tenderness My Girls My Girls, Wasterpiece, Bullet Piece and Better Days), then there was an interview section where I even got to ask The Kills a question just for fun which made them laugh (I got nervous and think I stuttered and my voice broke!).

It was fascinating to watch Jamie and Alison interacting with each other, so cute!

After the panel they played a small acoustic set including 103 and New York from God Games, as well as some older songs: Baby Says and Pull a U.

At the end we got the chance to get a poster print signed and I even got a picture with them.

I loved Alison's Celine jacket as well as her shirt but I forgot to ask her where the latter was from. Also really liked Jamie's loafers!

I'm starting to build a collection of pictures alongside my indie rock idols (see my Peter Doherty at The Royal Albert Hall post). Just need one with Julian Casablancas now 🤭

TOCOBO Complete Skincare Routine

@skincarestationery Tocobo Unboxing Haul ✨ Full reviews on the blog 📝 @STYLEKOREAN #trymereviewme_tocobo #tocobo #trymereviewme #lipcare #lipmask #eyegel #eyecare #darkcirclesolution #eyewrinkle #wrinklecare #koreanskincare #skinhydration #chappedlips #drylipsolution #stylekorean #stylekorean_global #lemontoner #aha #bha #kbeauty #ceramidecream #asmrunboxing #skincarehaul ♬ Chopin Nocturne No. 2 Piano Mono - moshimo sound design

StyleKorean kindly sent me a package of TOCOBO skincare to try and review!

I received the following products:

AHA BHA Lemon Toner: contains 38% Lemon Extact plus AHA and BHA to gently exfoliate the skin. It also contains Sphingomonas Ferment Extract, Panthenol, Allantoin and Hyaluronic Acid.

The packaging is so cute, I love the lemon shaped lid!

It has a medium viscosity texture but absorbs easily into the skin. It also has a slightly sour lemon scent that doesn't linger. Even though it contains Rosemary Leaf Oil it did not cause any irritation. It helped soften and smooth my skin however I believe that the inclusion of Alcohol Denat. also dried my skin out a bit.

Collagen Brightening Eye Gel Cream: infused with 81% Lavender Water plus Collagen, Quartz Jewel Water, Retinol and D-Panthenol at 1000ppm each. 

It comes in a sleek lilac tinted tube with a fine nozzle and screw cap. The text on the box was hard to read as it uses red font but luckily all information is also available online. 

The weightless gel is easy to dispensed thanks to its light texture and the fine nozzle applicator.

This Eye Gel features a lavender scent and tiny shimmering quartz particles which make it visually very appealing. It is extremely lightweight but very hydrating, it absorbs fast and layers well under other products. 

Bifida Biome Essence: this essence is designed to soothe and strengthen the skin barrier thanks to ferments of Bifida at 45%, Lactobacillus at 50,000ppm and Lactococcus at 10,000ppm. It also provides brightening and anti-wrinkle care with Niacinamide and Adenosine; plus hydration with several sugar derived ingredients, including Glycerin, Sucrose, Glucose, Sugarcane Extract,  Fructose, and Fructooligosaccharides.

It has a strong floral scent, has a light consistency with medium viscosity that absorbs quickly and layers well with other products.

I have been using it consistently twice a day for about 3 weeks and can attest to its soothing properties. My skin feels hydrated, soft, and looks more even as redness is considerably reduced.

I love the packaging's colour palette plus it feels so luxurious with the frosted glass bottle. One of my favourite products from this Try Me Review Me!

Multi Ceramide Cream: features Triple Hyaluronic Acid at 10% and Multi Ceramide Complex at 1000ppm to intensely hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier. It also contains Shea Butter, Chlorella Extract, Panthenol and several hydrating sugar derivatives including Glycerin Fructooligosaccharides, Fructose and Beta-Glucan. 

This cream has a whipped texture that melts into the skin and does not feel heavy on my oily complexion. It is both lightweight but nourishing at the same time and has a floral scent that matches the Essence. 

The packaging is absolutely beautiful, it features a textured frosted glass jar with a pastel blue lid. It feels luxurious and is nice to look at. Will definitely keep it for storage or even just for decoration. Another favourite from this TMRM!

Vita Glazed Lip Mask: this overnight lip mask can be used also as a daily lip balm to help moisturise and smooth lips by using Olive Oil at 30,000 ppm, plus Vita Skin E and Pomegranate Oleoactif (both at 100ppm).

It also contains Sea buckthorn, Jojoba and Moringa Seed Oils for deep nourishment and Lactobionic Acid to gently exfoliate. 

The rich formula coats the lips without stickiness and leaves a super glossy finish which I love. It makes lips look plump and feel instantly soft and moisturised with a sweet fruity scent. 

It comes with a spatula to dispense and apply product, which I found easy to use.

The outer packaging is adorable with its floral and gingham design in pastel colours, and the frosted glass pot is almost like a work of art, beautiful and decorative. Another amazing product from this TMRM!

I really enjoyed this Try Me Review me and would recommend every product as I believe they would be suitable for all skin types.

Ruffle Collar & Pink Sweatshirt

isntree Sunscreen Collection

Recently I received a set of 3 isntree sunscreens from Picky to test and review:

Hyaluronic Acid Daily Sun Gel SPF 30 PA+++

It features 10 types of Hyaluronic Acid and Beta-Glucan for a hydrating formula, as well as Niacinamide; plus soothing Sodium Palmitoyl Proline, Ectoin, Centella Asiatica, Nymphaea Alba Flower and Houttuynia Cordata Extracts; as well as Portulaca Oleracea Extract and Adenosine for anti-ageing effects. 

This Sun Gel has a lightweight consistency that gently moisturises the skin without feeling greasy. It is fragrance free and suitable for sensitive skin. It layers well with other products and does not irritate my skin. 

Onion Newpair Sunscreen SPF 40 PA+++

This non-comedogenic sunscreen is designed with blemish-prone skin in mind. It contains Onion Bulb Extract and Multi Vita Complex (Vitamins B3, B5, E and K) to soothe breakouts and to promote a brighter and even complexion. 

It also contains mattifying Kaolin, collagen-stimulating Adenosine, soothing Allantoin and Glycoproteins to provide a blurring effect.

This sunscreen is lightweight and features a purple tint that blends seamlessly onto the skin to brighten it and neutralise yellow undertones. It doesn't feel heavy nor it caused any redness or breakouts. It also improves the look of texture and layers well with other products. 

It is free from artificial fragrance however it does have a natural sweet scent that is not overpowering and does not linger. 

Yam Root Milk Tone Up Sun Cream SPF 50 PA++++

This sunscreen features a foundation effect, non-drying finish and skin barrier protection, and is formulated with Andong Yam Root Extract plus 5% Panthenol to provide moisture and strengthen the skin barrier. 

Other notable ingredients include Niacinamide, and Vegan Milk Complex (rice, bean and oats extracts) for a moisturising and firming effect; plus Hyaluronic Acid, Adenosine and Vitamin E.

It uses physical filters Zinc and Titanium Dioxide, which are known to leave a white cast. To avoid that, the product is tinted to provide a tone-up finish. 

As I don't usually wear foundation I like to apply this sunscreen over a non-tinted one. Something that I really like about it is that it helps even out my skin tone while also filling out small to medium-sized pores which give the appearance of smoother looking skin, 

The tone is a bit light for me however, only a small amount is needed for a brighter, more even look to the skin. It blends well and makes my skin look less oily. It would be nice to have this in more shades.

All 3 sunscreens feature the classic isntree leaf design on the front of the box and tube. I like the minimal-design and colour-coded packaging as it makes it quick and easy to identify which product you want to use.

They all come packaged in a recycled paper box made from discarded green tea and printed with soy ink which allows easier paper recycling. 

Have you tried isntree sunscreens?

PURITO Deep Sea Droplet Serum + Water Cream

@skincarestationery PURITO haul featuring the Deep Sea Droplet Serum and Deep Sea Water Cream 🌊 #skincarehaul #asmrhaul #skincaretexture #peptides #purito #kbeauty #textureshot @PURITO @Picky | Kbeauty 💌 ♬ Sunshine - WIRA

A couple of weeks ago I received a couple of PURITO products from the Deep Sea range to test and review. 

The PURITO Deep Sea Droplet Serum comes packaged in a white cardboard box, containing inside a sturdy clear plastic bottle with a light blue gradient label and a removable rounded cap. It uses a pump to dispense the product.  

This serum is designed to hydrate and nourish the skin thanks to a Marine Complex and Snow Mushroom. With over 66% Deep Sea Water, Glycerin, Hydrolysed Glycosaminoglycans, Tremella Extract & Polysaccharides, plus Glasswort and Algae Extracts, this serum leaves skin feeling hydrated and soft. 

It also features Ectoin and Allantoin to soothe, as well as Adenosine, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Copper Tripeptide-1, which have anti-ageing properties.

It is recommended to use 2 to 3 pumps however, I find that 2 or even just one pump is enough for my whole face. 

The Deep Sea Droplet Serum is a very lightweight and hydrating fragrance-free serum that does not irritate my skin. It layers well with other products and the nearly-invisible capsules dissolve easily on application, leaving no residue. 

Would definitely recommend this serum if you are looking for a gentle, hydrating serum with peptides.

The PURITO Deep Sea Water Cream comes in a recycled cardboard box holding inside a large pharmaceutical-looking tube with a screw-on cap. 

The cream is designed to provide deep hydration from the inside out and balance the skin's oil-water levels thanks to 60% Deep Sea Water and 2% Niacinamide, plus Sodium Hyaluronate. Other notable ingredients include soothing Panthenol, several Marine Extracts, Macadamia Seed Oil, Adenosine and Arginine. 

This moisturiser appears to have a gel-cream texture, however, it is more occlusive thanks to silicones but does not feel heavy on my oily skin when applied.

The Deep Sea Water Cream is easy to dispense and apply; it is unscented and gentle on the skin. It moisturises well and layers well under sunscreen. It is comfortable to wear and has slight blurring properties.

The only thing I don't love is that the packaging doesn't match each other but it would not deter me from using or repurchasing these products. 

I would love to see an eye cream with peptides in this range and also ceramides added into the current range.

HUM Nutrition Skin Squad Pre+Probiotic

A few months ago I was kindly gifted a couple of HUM Nutrition Skin Squad Pre+Probiotic bottles.

This supplement claims to "nurture the gut and clear skin of non-cystic acne" thanks to 9 strains of bacteria plus konjac root for balanced gut health. 

Full ingredient list:

Rice Dextrin, Amorphophallus Konjac Root Extract 200mg, 9 Strains Of Lactic Acid Bacteria (Bacillus Subtilis DE111, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Bacillus Coagulans, Lactobacillus Paracasei (Lpc-37), Lactobacillus Salivarius, Bifidobacterium Lactis (Bi-07), Bifidobacterium Lactis Bi-04), Lactobacillus Rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium Lactis (HN19)) 190mg, Capsule Material (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Pectin), Medium Chain Triglycerides.

The HUM Nutrition Skin Squad Pre+Probiotic supplements are free from Milk, Eggs, Fish, Shellfish, Tree Nuts, Peanuts, Wheat, Soy, Artificial Colors, Flavors and Preservatives.

Having acne-prone skin since I can remember (although not as bad as it used to be) I was very interested in seeing what this product could do for me. 

I started taking them last month and after over 6 weeks I can certify that they do help prevent breakouts, as I have had only very few minimal ones and only 1 or 2 bigger ones over the last few weeks. Any rare breakouts I experienced also cleared quite quickly and left no marks on my skin.

It is recommended to take 2 capsules daily, which could be a struggle for me sometimes even though they are on the smaller side. 

Something I did not love is that they do have an unpleasant smell to them (they are full of bacteria after all) but it was a bit unexpected and could be off-putting for some.

There has also been some slight bloating which I can't be sure if the capsules have caused, however if you are looking forward to an important event for which you would like to have clear skin then the HUM Nutrition Skin Squad Pre+Probiotic are definitely worth a try. 

Find the HUM Nutrition Skin Squad Pre+Probiotic at Sephora and Cult Beauty.

Oral-B Densify Decay Control

Recently I received the Oral-B Densify Decay Control to test and review. 

This toothpaste contains stannous fluoride in addition to sodium fluoride to reverse calcium loss while helping to prevent tooth decay and early stage-cavities. 

To me it has an intense flavour reminiscent of the smell of a Margarita, however it is alcohol free. 

It leaves my teeth feeling very clean and smooth. I like this product however, even though it should be used twice daily to achieve the claims previously mentioned I am a bit wary as there are cases showing stannous fluoride staining teeth so have been alternating it with other products to prevent this.

Another downside to this product is the price which is about 10 times more expensive than what I would usually like to pay for a toothpaste.

Other than that, Oral-B Densify Decay Control is a good quality toothpaste that I will continue to use with care.

You can get 50% off with code DENSIFYFIFTY on Boots until 31 August.

The Inkey List Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm

A few days ago I received the new Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm by The Inkey List. 

This Plumping Lip Balm is "clinically proven to plump lips by up to 40% in 4 weeks" which sounds promising!

It contains:

• 6% Tripeptide Complex (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38) to boost collagen production
• Ultra Filling Spheres with Hyaluronic Acid for an instant plumping effect
• A blend of Fatty Acids and Plant Oils to reduce TEWL, nourish and soften 

Full ingredient list:

Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Hydroxystearic/Linolenic/Oleic Polyglycerides, Glyceryl Rosinate, Theobroma Grandiflorum (Cupuaçu) Seed Butter, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Candelilla Cera, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Orbignya Oleifera (Babassu) Seed Oil, Squalane, Cetearyl Ethylhexanoate, Hydrogenated Olive Oil, Salvia Hispanica (Chia) Seed Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Glyceryl Behenate, Olea Europaea (Olive) Oil Unsaponifiables, Tribehenin, Sorbitan Isostearate, Tocopherol, Portulaca Pilosa Extract, Trihydroxystearin, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Sucrose Cocoate, Brassica Alba Sprout Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38, Glucomannan.

The instructions do mention that it needs to be used daily, at least 3 times per day, however only a small amount is needed so it will still last a long time even with constant usage. 

I've only been using it for 5 days and I believe I can feel some increase in the volume of my lips already when I press them together. 

The Inkey List Tripeptide Plumping Lip Balm leaves my lips feeling moisturised and looking smoother and supple instantly. It has a natural sheen and it is fragrance and colour free.

I would love to see tinted versions of this product and can't wait to compare my results in a few weeks time!

Nip + Fab Hyaluronic Fix Extreme4 Eye Patches & Concentrate 2%

On Saturday I received the Nip + Fab Hydrate Hyaluronic Acid Fix Extreme4 Concentrate 2% and the Jelly Eye Patches to test and review. 

The Hyaluronic Acid Fix Extreme4 Concentrate Extreme 2% comes packaged in a roomy cardboard box featuring all the relevant information regarding usage and ingredients. The serum is secured inside with folded panels, the sandblasted glass bottle feels luxurious and matches the aquamarine shade of the box. 

It contains 2% pure Hyaluronic Acid in high and low molecular weights, Tremella or Snow Mushroom, Polyglutamic Acid and 20% Glycerin. 

It is fragrance free (but the smell is reminiscent of ballpoint pen ink) and features a stringy consistency, very much like snail mucin products, which I believe is due to the high concentration of Glycerin. 

The Concentrate 2% has a slippery texture which when dried can feel tacky, however this sensation disappears once other products are layered over it. 

It makes my skin look very glowy and it seems to improve texture as well, however it does make my skin feel a bit tight which I believe is due to the Hyaluronic Acid.

Overall, the Concentrate 2% is a nice hydrating serum to add glow to the skin.

The Hyaluronic Fix Extreme4 Jelly Eye Patches come in a slightly less luxurious plastic pot, however it is very sturdy and well made. Inside it features a stopper to avoid leakage and a set of tweezers to dispense the patches. 

Like the Concentrate 2%, the Eye Patches also contain Hyaluronic Acid, Polyglutamic Acid, Tremella and Glycerin, plus Diamond Powder.

I had never used eye patches before so wasn't sure what to expect. The first time it was quite fiddly and hard to apply. The patches are also very delicate - I managed to rip one during my first application.

They feel very cooling and comfortable to wear thanks to the jelly texture, however and can slip down the face easily, so had to slide them up again every so often.

The Jelly Eye Patches are meant to be left on the skin for 10 to 30 minutes (instructions vary on the website and packaging). 

Around 20 minutes seems to be enough time for the essence to absorb fully into the skin. After removing them my skin feels very soft and looks hydrated and smoother, which I like. It is also nice to know that the patches are biodegradable.

The Eye Patches, like the Concentrate 2%, are also unscented, but a petroleum or plastic smell is perceivable, however this fades quickly. The package contains 20 pairs and has a short PAO of 3 months. 

The only thing I would change is the shape of the patches as I found them hard to get right under the inner corner of my eyes, which is where I needed the most hydration. I would get these again provided the shape was improved. 

Overall a fun step to add into your skincare routine.

TIRTIR Cica Care Bubble Toner

Been recently using the TIRTIR Cica Care Bubble Toner* which is designed to be calming and strengthening for the skin.

It contains several beneficial skin ingredients, including Centella Asiatica Leaf Water; Extracts of Witch Hazel, Licorice Root, Camomile Flower Extract, Rosemary Leaf and Camellia Sinesis Leaf; as well as Panthenol, Allantoin, Probiotics and Cica Complex.

Because of the several moisturising and soothing ingredients it helps reduce redness and also hydrates my skin without irritating it. 

The foaming format is also fun to use and very different to the usual liquid toners on the market. 

The TIRTIR Cica Care Bubble Toner feels very refreshing on the skin, has a sweet citrus fragrance that doesn't linger and effectively hydrates while prepping the skin for the next step in your routine.

Find the TIRTIR Cica Care Bubble Toner at YesStyle and use code NAV2019 for money off your next order (or follow the link for a higher discount).

By Wishtrend Propolis Energy Calming Ampoule TMI Box

Recently I was kindly gifted the By Wishtrend Propolis Energy Calming Ampoule TMI Box from the YesStyle Influencer program.

The By Wishtrend Propolis Energy Calming Ampoule comes packaged in a bright yellow box and an elegant clear glass bottle with white accents. It is sealed for hygiene and has a PAO of 12 months. 

This multi-tasking ampoule can help hydrate, add glow, provide antioxidant support, soothe and help improve breakouts by reducing bacteria on the skin.

All of this is thanks to ingredients like Houttuynia Cordata Extract, Propolis Extract, Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Witch Hazel, Panthenol, Probiotics and Zinc PCA. 

The texture is lightweight but not runny which makes it easy to apply. It immediately adds a glow to the skin and makes it feel very hydrated. It is also very easy to spread so only a small amount is needed. It leaves a non-tacky finish and it layers well under other products. 

The Propolis Energy Calming Ampoule has a faint sweet scent that does not linger. 

This TMI (or Tell More Information Box) comes with a lot of extra limited edition goodies to learn more about the product.

Included in this box are a poster, an informational booklet, samples of the Propolis Energy Boosting Essence & Propolis Energy Balancing Cream, a star-shaped enamel pin and the cutest glittery tape!

I really enjoyed this By Wishtrend TMI Box as it is a great way to get introduced to a product while learning more about its star ingredient.
