I love testing new cleansing products and enrich my list. I have a dry to normal complexion and I have concluded to some cleansers that really suit my skin, like those below. I never skip my 3-stage cleansing routine with a cleansing oil, water based cleanser or foam and finally, toner! I would love to listen to your recommendations for your favourite products if your skin concerns are similar to mine!!! I cant resist to trying new ones!

Clean but not dry!!!

Nothing bad! Honestly, this is so comprehensive..

🧞‍♀️Let&#39;sSay you are only allowed to have a single skincare product wish fulfilled by the genie. Which product would you choose? Because you can only choose one. From the standpoint of my dry skin, this is the holy grail, the one and only product I would tell the genie to gift me, no second thoughts, hands down.
🧞‍♂️Why? Because it includes peptides, hyaluronic acid, ferments and antioxidants in its splurge-worthy pinkish formula, making it actually a youth or luminosity spell in a bottled version. While combating the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, it helps even out skin tone and locks moisture in.You will feel the difference in your skin very soon, it will definitely reduce break outs, improve pores and texture and your skin will feel firm, soft and smooth.
🧞FightingMultipleSignsOfAging Had I not tried it myself, I would have hardly fallen for all this hype. But soon after the very first mornings, I could tell that my skin looked calmer and more radiant, certain irritations caused by other fragranced products had subsided and felt my skin firmer, more youthful and plumper, with a different bounce &amp; vitality. Though the distinct herbal scent was hard to get used to in the beginning, it fades away after a while, as it is a really fast-penetrating serum. The revolutionary formula is a little gloopy, but thus,only a tiny amount of it works wonders. I use it before my evening moisturising routine and after thorough cleansing to allow it to sink deeper.
🧞‍♂️FreeFrom parabens, mineral oils, sulphates, pthalates. Full of humectants and antioxidants, in a luxurious recyclable packaging, a dropper that comes in handy. Good for all skin tones and types, super versatile and useful to emulsify your foundation and make your skin glow.
🧞WorthEveryPenny Do yourself the favour to try this, save money, time, space..it really works better than anything I have tried and fights many issues at the same time. Definitely worths all the money and the title of most comprehensive super serum ever!

🐝 FormulatedWith70% of propolis extract, this serum has the highest concentration of propolis you will find in k-beauty. Why is #propolis held in such high regard in k-beauty? Because, composed of resin (not honey, as many think), wax, essential oils, pollen, and other organic compounds, propolis boasts flavonoids, phenolic acids, resveratrol, all known for their soothing, antiaging &amp; anti-inflammatory properties. Propolis also contains enzymes, vitamins (B1, B2, B6, C, and E), minerals (magnesium, calcium, potassium, sodium, copper, zinc, manganese, and iron). 
🫖OtherIngredients This serum literally has it all, I mean, what do these people in iunik do, magic, spells, potions?🦉🧹 I loved the fact that this serum contains sea buckthorn extract, a great stabilizer for vitamin C, which my skin loves so much! 
🫖Wait, we are not even half way there. Niacinamide (really, do I need to elaborate?),soothing, alleviating from redness and controlling sebum&#47;oil production etc. Furthermore, sodium hyaluronate, which is a concentrated form of hyaluronic acid (I am a better person when my skin maintains its moisture, trust me). There is also honey extract. And glycerin. And beta-glucan. All of them, skin-soothing agents, precious humectants, antioxidants, moisturising and nourishing for my fragile, tired, dry and sensitive skin, which is often faced with rosacea and irritations. I really felt my skin barrier developing strength and improving slowly after the first two weeks. The citrus essential oil it contains is a drawback, though I couldn’t actually smell it. The serum is totally scentless, which communicates a sense of safety to me.
🫖OnTheDownside The formula is a little runny, but this is also the reason why it is so lightweight, not sticky and easily absorbed, so I won’t complain. The alleged brightening effects were not so obvious as I expected, perhaps if I invested in another bottle? Or is it because of my inner glow and brightness being too much already?🤣
🫖YesIWouldRepurchase, I would love to read your thoughts if you have tried it!

You have to learn to tolerate the smell, it is a little intense. And be extra careful because it may leave orange stains everywhere..

💎SeedOrFruit. There are 2 types of Sea Buckthorn: Seed Oil or Fruit Oil. The fruit oil is particularly effective for acne prone skin. The smell is berry-like, whilst its seed counterpart smells nutty. The Seed Oil has a golden colour and its texture is thinner. On the other hand, the fruit oil has a thicker consistency (might become even thicker if refrigerated, unlike the seed oil) and a dark orange-red hue.

💎PulpFiction The pulp of the Sea-Buckthorn berry, from which the fruit oil derives, contains nutrients, omega 7, fatty acids and vitamins that promote cellular regeneration, restore elasticity and strengthen skin. It boasts antibacterial, antifungal and most importantly, anti-inflammatory properties against swelling or redness associated with conditions such as rosacea or eczema. Its antioxidant potential is based on its high content of polyphenols, vitamins C and E, carotenoids, as well as sterols. The formula&#39;s intense natural hue is due to its high carotenoids and lycopene content. After application, the colour of the oil remains on skin until it is washed off. Only a small amount is needed to use either separately or diluted with other serums&#47;moisturisers. Be extra careful, because it may leave orange stains literally everywhere. I prefer to use it as a mask and wash off after an hour.

☄ ItWillHelp with Acne, prevent development of wrinkles, protect skin from free radical damage, tackle discolourations, rosacea &amp; protect against UV rays. The fatty acids it contains are by far the richest of all other vegetable oils.

💎TheScentAndColour of the product by The Ordinary are such because it is completely unrefined. if the product doesn’t have a scent, it probably means that it has been refined and has less active compounds. And we don&#39;t want that!

Nothing bad!!! Totally honestly, wonderful..

The Good Cera, Super Ceramide Cream by @holikaholikaglobal_official

🎼&quot;Que cera cera, whatever will be, will be...&quot;🎶🎶

💛Ceramides💛Such a buzzworthy skincare ingredient lately, right?Ceramides are waxy lipids, already produced by our skin cells, making up the 50% of the goopy material between them. However, their production slows down as we age and we need to intervene. Ceramides bond with skin cells to create a barrier on the skin’s surface to prevent moisture loss and plump skin with hydration.

💛TheGoodCera line by @holikaholika_official is dedicated to ceramides. This formula is hypoallergenic, restores skin-fat balance and saturates skin with vitamins &amp; minerals. If you suffer from any irritation, you can use either this moisturiser or the balm (for more immediate results, relief and soothing, but much waxier) and feel relieved. The brand advises it be used in cold seasons, because it is way too rich. In the first week of use, I found it a little sticky and felt as if it attracted all the dust onto my face. It really works much better if you apply this over a layer of your favourite mist or essence. Gradually, I built tolerance and now my epidermis feels much more elastic and soft, especially in the jaw line and forehead (which I have been torturing for years with my facial expressions and grimaces) without the sticky sensation. The product has an acidity of pH 5.5, the optimal level of skin moisture. It also contains shea butter to soften skin, boost collagen production and smooth some fine wrinkles. The texture is slightly waxy, without clogging your pores. You will just feel that you filled some gaps there, that after your great routine, you add this final step and lock everything precious in. Because I want my skin to feel supple, I will repurchase for the summer and use it as a night moisturiser instead.

💛OtherIngredients: Niacinamide (anti-acne), cocoa seed extract (antioxidant), hyaluronic acid, squalane, glycerin, aloe vera extract, chamomile essential oil, allantoin.

🌦OnTheDownside I would prefer less fragrance, truth be told, no matter how lovely this is. Although the scent vanishes after a while, it is still a little annoying (wearing the mask, I have to smell it &amp; it reminds me of Turkish delight, which makes me hungry...)

👻TheGhost I hate how pale my skin is when I wakeup in the morning, but I&#39;ve learnt to live with it. As it&#39;s very susceptible to irritations&#47;rosacea&#47;sunburns, I picked a high spf. To be honest, high spfs have this thick texture, which is so difficult to be absorbed or leaves white stains&#47;cast or piles etc. And this makes me look like a ghost. Not in this case, though.👻
⛅TheTexture is thin, light, sinks in skin and is non sticky. It is enriched with soothing organic grape water, according to the philosophy of the company, and gives a maximum UVA&#47;UVB protection, while it makes face look plump and dewy. The magic patented ingredient is an anti-oxidant complex of grape polyphenols which, combined with the filters, firms and protects the skin from photo-induced aging. It is ideal for sensitive skin and it is water resistant, while it also works well with makeup. It doesn&#39;t contain any mineral oil, it&#39;s non comedogenic, free from animal origin ingredients and the formula is highly biodegradable.
🌻Tip: Wait for your toner&#47;serum&#47;treatment to dry before applying this, otherwise it may pile or peel. Procrastinating on leaving the house has accidentally made me so wise with some products.🤣
