I can't be without
I use this every so often I get a breakout and i'm not joking, you it clears my skin up every time! I can't be without this product. It doesn't dry your skin up in anyway or cause any irritation like some acne products do. I have literally been using this for years and will be devastated if I couldn't get it anymore

Great for everyday use
This is a great everyday SPF option. It’s very lightweight, leaves no white cast or greasy residue. The texture is very smooth and it feels much less likely to clog up my skin compared to other sunscreens I’ve tried. It also performs well under my makeup.

Gentle yet effective!
The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+M Moisturiser is a great pick if you have oily or acne-prone skin. Here's why it's awesome: 1. **Matte Hydration**: It hydrates your skin without making it look or feel greasy, which is perfect if you struggle with excess oil. 2. **Acne Fighting**: Packed with ingredients like salicylic acid and niacinamide, it helps prevent breakouts and calms down any existing spots. 3. **Refines Pores**: This moisturiser also works to minimise the appearance of pores, giving your skin a smoother look. 4. **Controls Oil**: Throughout the day, it helps control oil production, keeping your skin feeling balanced. 5. **Gentle and Soothing**: Despite its acne-fighting powers, it's gentle and won't irritate sensitive skin. To use it, just apply a thin layer to clean skin in the morning and/or evening. You can wear it alone or under makeup. Stick with it, and you'll likely see clearer, happier skin over time.

Such an amazing brand! Every product I've tried of La Roche-posay has shown great results and consistency. 💙
Highly recommended
My sister recommended I try this. It feels really good and bubbles up well. It is quite affordable plus really good if you have sensitive skin. Also dermatologists help develop it. It feels nicer than majority of cleansers. I highly recommend that product.

Dark spot holy grail
This serum is amazing, cleared my dark spots and even my skin tone, improves hydration, soothes the skin’s and has anti aging properties. It’s light weight and not sticky, easy to blend into the skin. Fades hyperpigmentation and even skin tone. I’ll definitely recommend.

Altruist Face Fluid SPF 50/ 50ml
At first, I loved the texture, so lightweight. I've never liked a thick SPF. It was so smooth and easy to apply. Once applied I noticed after a while there was a slight white cast left behind as well as this white paste developed from the SPF. This SPF may work better if it's applied in layers. Room for improvement.

Retinol, a beauty investment I'll never regret!
Retinol is Vitamin A for your skin, one of the most effective beauty products for signs of aging. Retinol speeds up your skin cell turnaround, smooths fine lines & wrinkles & helps fade dark spots & blemishes. Some people can be nervous when introducing retinol into their skincare routine because of some of the side effects (like irritation & breakouts) but if you use it correctly & consistently, you'll love it! Retinol beginners should start with a low percentage & slowly increase the percentage over time to work out what level is best for their skin. I started my retinol journey months ago & am still on 0.5% as the bottle lasts ages, I'll try increasing the percentage when I make my next retinol purchase. Always cleanse before applying retinol & always moisturise after. It's best to apply retinol in your evening skincare routine. Make sure you use SPF in your morning skincare routine, especially if using retinol at night, as it can increase your chances of sunburn. You should also check your other skincare products can be used with retinol as some products can't be mixed with it, such as salicylic acid & glycolic acid. Also, keep your retinol in the fridge so it doesn't lose its effectiveness. I love The Ordinary skincare products, they last ages & I always see results after using them. I also use their rose hip seed face oil & hyaluronic acid daily.

Retinal royalty 👑
Having reached a certain age I started researching retinol. I tried a few well known brands but wasn't really seeing the results I was hoping for. Then I came across the Medik8 crystal retinal range. I started at the lowest strength & worked my way up to this one. I have not been disappointed. These are so gentle but effective. It's like applying a luxury serum. I have had no irritation, no purging & no worsening of my fine lines 👌

SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tea-Trica Sun Milk
SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tea-Trica Soothing Sun Milk SPF50+ provides high broad-spectrum sun protection while being gentle on the skin. Its lightweight, milky texture spreads easily and absorbs quickly, leaving no white cast, making it suitable for all skin tones. Infused with Centella Asiatica and tea tree extract, this sunscreen not only shields against UV rays but also calms and soothes the skin, making it ideal for sensitive or acne-prone skin. I appreciate its non-greasy finish and subtle, refreshing scent, I enjoying its comfortable wear and effective protection throughout the day.

Great serum
Silymarin CF serum is effective in addressing the needs of oily and acne prone skin. I've been using this serum for couple of weeks and I can see slightly improvement in my skin texture. My complexion looks brighter and I have less breakouts. One thing I didn't like about this serum is the sticky feeling after applying it. Overall great multi beneficial serum.

Amazing
Love this product. It really did enhance my skincare and the outcome. It have helped even out my skin and made my pores smaller and tighter. The other thing I noticed is my skin started looking brighter and tighter. Skin looks good without make up and my make up looks smooth. Would highly recommend this product as part of your skin care routine.

Amazing product! Works instantly and does the job.
I used this for the first time recently, and honestly, it worked a lot better than I had expected it to. The patch causes no pain or stinging, you almost forget that it's there. I left it on for the majority of the day, and upon peeling, my skin looked as if there had never been any spot / blemish. I especially loved that this works on spots that are forming, not just defined ones!

So far so good
I am very optimistic about this unassuming looking product. I used after washing & toning & saw some improvement in the tone and texture of my skin after 1 week so will continue to use & update my review accordingly. It is lightweight so no sticky residue. Moisturisering & sunscreen were easy to apply after with no clamminess. Like that it's Free From - fragrance, sulphates, silicones and essential oils. I have recommended to friends & family especially as they have been complimenting my skin tone.

Must have
This is a fantastic product! Though minor, so far so great. I can see a difference on my skin clearing. It's very easy to apply to my skin. I even got a few compliments on my face. So I'm sure it's down to this product. I would highly recommend this and already have!

Amazing little skin treat
As soon as I saw the little beautiful tester, I knew I would not be disappointed. The little bottle became my favourite part of my beauty regime. I apply a couple of drops after cleansing and allow a couple of minutes to fully absorb into my skin. It's almost like my skin drinks it straight away. It feels really gorgeous and you can almost feel the effect immediately. I am sure I can already see a difference in my skin texture. It appears more radiant, smooth and calm. I know there are a lot of products on the market, but I would strongly encourage you to try this little gem. I am buying the full size now and I am sure it will become an integral part of my skin care regime for years to come.

Must have in my routine
Salicylic acid is effective for treating acne, exfoliating dead skin cells, unclogging pores, and reducing inflammation. With regular use, it helped me improve my skin texture, reduce blackheads and pimples, and diminish the appearance of hyperpigmentation.

Salicylic acid face serum
I was sent this serum to use and review. Due to some changes in my life I've been struggling with hormonal breakouts so have been trying out different products to help combat this, I was hopeful that this serum would help make a difference but unfortunately that hasn't been the case. There's no unpleasant fragrance, it applies smoothly there's no stickiness or dry feeling after using. It hasn't made my skin worse and my oiliness seems to be under control so it's helped with that but not with the breakouts. I've been using it after cleansing both morning and night and will continue using. I think if you're struggling with oiliness and breakouts it's worth trying.
