💎 Skincare Influencers 💎

Unfortunately there were lumps in the balm that wouldn&#39;t melt down fully which ruined the experience of that perfect slip over the skin. I&#39;m a sucker for a luxurious first cleanse experience.

I struggled to emulsify with ease, this balm definitely needs more effort to do so. My skin was also left with a feeling of residue, which wasn&#39;t so bad if I followed up with a stronger, foaming cleanser. However I don&#39;t always like to incorporate these in my night routine.

This balm definitely struggled with removing eyeliner and mascara, especially waterproof ones. I found I had to go in beforehand with a micellar water over the eye area.

I was super excited to try this brands cleansing balm! 

First Impressions: The packaging is PKY&#39;s usual simple and sophisticated. This balm had little-to-no scent which I definitely don&#39;t mind, and didn&#39;t irritate my skin at all.

Results: It melted down my SPF and makeup well, but definitely took more work to emulsify.

This gel moisturiser has an ever so slight tackiness once applied, but I personally didn&#39;t mind it and found it didn&#39;t take long to absorb into the skin.

This is one of my personal holy grails!

First Impressions: I had heard amazing things about this product, especially for those with oily, sensitive skin, looking for a lightweight gel Moisturizer that won&#39;t leave them feeling greasy. I am a huge fan of Centella, and along with other added ingredients like Niacinamide, Tea Tree Leaf Water and Adenosine this product claims to heal, strengthen, smooth, calm, brighten and nourish the skin.

Conclusion: I loved this product, and my skin loved it. Super lightweight, breathable, very calming for my redness and sensitive skin. It sat well under makeup, and didn&#39;t make my skin feel too shiny or greasy. I recommend anyone with sensitive, oily skin to give this a go!

If only this came in a spray bottle for a fine mist.

10&#47;10 💎 This product ticked all the boxes for my combination&#47;oily, acne prone, sensitive skin!

This felt incredibly soothing! It helped to tame down inflammation and redness from my acne and sensitivity.

This toner has a refreshing, lightweight feel which was the perfect spouse for my oily grease platter.

This product does have a strong natural watermelon scent. I personally have adjusted to it and this does not bother me, but if you are extremely sensitive to fragrance, I would be cautious. 

Otherwise I love everything about this product. ♡

Look at how beautiful this packaging is! Just one of the many things I love about this product. ♡

This toner claims to:
✔ Gently exfoliate
✔ Leave the skin supple and bouncy
✔ Aid in decongesting the skin
✔ Unclogging pores
✔ Also contains Hyaluronic acid that deeply nourishes.

This provides exactly that for my skin! As well as a beautiful glow. It has a slightly thicker than water consistency, much like many other toners. This soaks in effortlessly into my skin, allowing my follow up products to still soak in as per usual, this doesn&#39;t pill, or sit funny under other products.

🔑 Key Ingredients 🔑

🍉 Watermelon Extract - Hydrates and soothes the skin.
🌵 Cactus Water - Contains electrolytes and antioxidants for the skin.
🌕 PHA&#39;s - Gently exfoliate providing a smoother texture and even skin tone.
🌳 Willow Bark (BHA) - Decongests and unclogs pores to minimize their appearance.

Definitely takes a smidge bit more work to melt down in your hand before applying, I often found (especially in winter) it wouldn&#39;t melt down fully and I&#39;d have the odd exfoliating bead. 😂

Another cleansing balm I enjoyed using.

- Melts down makeup, spf and oils easily.
- Emulsifies reasonably well.
- I love the boujee feel of a cleansing balm.
