Catherine's Reviews

I’ve enjoyed using the Eve Lom Rescue Mask. This dermatologically tested product claims to keep skin hydrated 72 hours after use. I’d say this is true from my experience using it. Ingredients include: Kaolin Clay which absorbs oil and reduces puffiness, camphor which cools and decongests, ground almonds to exfoliate and honey to condition. My skin felt very hydrated and invigorated after use. It has a clean, astringent smell to it. Maybe that’s the camphor smell? It made my skin soft and smooth. It’s very luxurious. It’s safe for all skin types. I would recommend this mask.

I've enjoyed using the CicaRelief Serum by Real Barrier. Centella asiatica (shortened is Cica) is an herb native to some parts of Asia and Africa. It is also known as Gotu Kola, Indian Pennywort and Tiger Grass. Interestingly, tigers rub this plant on their wounds to help their skin regenerate. The leafy green herb has been used for centuries to treat wounds. Researchers found that Centella Asiatica extract is used in the healing of incisions and burns. There are many amino acids and vitamins in Centella Asiatica (including beta-carotene, fatty acids, and phytochemicals, including vitamins C, A, B1, and B2). Together they can help stimulate collagen production. 50% of this product is Centella Asiatica. Additional ingredients: Madecassoside, Allantoin and Panthenol, which assist in calming skin irritation. Hyaluronic Acid, which attracts moisture to the skin. It has calming Calamine in it. It has patented Ceramide 3 in it (for long lasting hydration). The product is dermatologist te...

I have enjoyed using the VELY VELY Yuja C-Tamin Toner. Yuja is a citrus fruit grown in Asia, specifically Korea and Japan. The ingredient is more common in Korean Skincare. The product has a very light lemon scent. Yuja has 3 times more Vitamin C than lemon! Yuja’s antioxidant formula protects against pre-mature aging. It stimulates collagen production. Yuja C-Tamin Toner helps even out your skin tone, assists with making skin less dull and assists with dark spots. I’ve tried the VELY VELY Yuja C-Tamin Cream. I enjoyed using that product, as well, and like I said the scent is wonderful! I had no reaction to the toner, so that was a relief. Would recommend this product and other VELY VELY products! #amazon #YujaCtaminToner #YujaCtaminSerum #YujaCtaminCream #vitaminserum #skincareroutine #healthyskin #igskincare #skincareobsessed

I’ve appreciated using the Easydew Repair Control Renewal Moisture. It doesn’t cause any reaction with my sensitive skin. I have used the toner and liked it as well. Recommendations included using it over serum. It’s like hydration over hydration. I have been using it in the morning and before bed. I wake up in the morning and it still feels moisturized. It has a very reasonable price. It’s in a cream form. I could see it renewing the moisture barrier, as it claims. It is suitable for all skin types. Apparently, it is used in medical facilities as a post laser skincare treatment! The product packaging states that it has been clinically proven to repair damaged skin and help remove the symptoms of inflammation. As with the Easydew toner, it contains DW-EGF, which is a synthetic formula made by Daewoong Pharmaceutical. EGF is a “Youth Protein” which replenishes collagen and elastin. I like the Easydew line/brand so far and hope to try more of their products. It’s perfect for my dry, sens...

I was pleased with the Herbal Dynamics Beauty® RevitAge® Diamond & Pearl Firming Gel Mask. I could feel the mask on my skin, meaning the ingredients were causing a warm feeling on my face. Maybe that means it was working? Not sure. I kept it on for the recommended amount of time. I still had a pearly, shimmer to my skin after I washed my face, or maybe I didn’t wash my face well enough. It has interesting ingredients with the diamond powder (which exfoliates) and mother of pearl. Additionally, it has Acacia Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid, Roselle Flower and Amino Acids which help to build collagen, soothe and repair damaged skin. It says to use 2-3 times per week. I will try to do that. I appreciate that it’s sulfate free, cruelty free, paraben free and phthalate free. Did I mention that it is so pretty? It’s a beautiful, luxurious formula. It has a pleasant, light, nice scent. Would recommend! I received this product complimentary for the purpose of review from Picky.

I love the Aloette Hand Couture anti-aging hand cream (part of the Farm to Jar skin care line). My hands feel so soft! It is just the right amount of creaminess. Not too thick and not too light. I didn’t have any reaction to the cream, which is good with my sensitive skin. My hands are a neglected part of my body, for sure. Glad I found this hand cream! The aloe’s soothing and moisturizing qualities make my skin feel so soft! I love the packaging. Very upbeat and classy looking! I think I’m going to start using it every day. This product was gifted to me for the purpose of review from Aloette.
