Hey :) 

I currently use Illiyoon ceramide ato concentrate cream but it’s getting really hard to find so I’m looking for a replacement. 
Do you know a cream similar to that one ?? 

Please help, it’s my favorite moisturizer 🙏

Please help me replace my moisturizer 😬

Hi picky people :) 

I’ve been seeing a lot of gummies that are supposed to help improve your skin, so I was wondering if it was a real thing ? 
And if it is, do you have any recommendations? ☺️

Skin gummies ?

Hi picky squad :) 

Have you ever had to pay taxes when receiving a giveaway from Picky ? Just received an email asking me to pay but it’s never happened to me before so I just wanna make sure it’s not a scam 😬 

Thanks in advance for your help 🙏

Taxes for giveaways ?

Hi :) 

I’ve been having skin problems because of the cold weather (I live in France). 
My skin is dryer than usual but I still break out (acne prone/dry skin). 
I use this Bellflower product but my skin is still sensitive… 

Any advice ?? 🙏

Winter problems

I received these products for free from Picky and The Potions in exchange for my honest review.

First of all, the design of the products is very effective. It reminded me of The ordinary packaging wise.

However the dropper isn’t very practical, which might be because of the bottles’ size. They are quite small (only 20ml) compared to pretty much every other brand (30 ml or over).

I’ve now been testing the 3 products for about 2 weeks, so I will write about my own experience. 
I have combination skin (dry cheeks and oily + congested T zone). And I’m also prone to breakouts. 

Hyaluronic acid 
It’s a very basic ingredient (but also very effective) that I use after cleansing, on damp skin. 
I like the texture wich isn’t too viscous and also not too watery. It absorbs very quickly and hydrates well. 
It doesn’t have a particular smell. 
I’ve been using hyaluronic acid serums in the past and i quite like this one. However, i don’t think I’ll be repurchasing it because of the dropper and the size. 
I use this in the morning and at night. 

Peptide
I really really like peptides, they work well on my skin. This product is really enjoyable. I like the texture (not too liquidy or viscous) and it absorbs quickly. 
It did show some results (skin more plump and I look less tired). 
I used to use a peptide moisturizer but I prefer this as a serum to be honest. 
I would consider repurchasing this but as I said before the dropper is really a problem for me. 
I use this at night.

Jojoba oil 
Jojoba is one of my favorite oils, even though I don’t really like oils on my face in general. 
This one is actually pretty good because it doesn’t leave the skin feeling greasy. 
The texture is nice, it absorbs well. Feels way nicer than other brands.
Doesn’t clog my pores.
Don’t think I will repurchase, as I said I don’t really like oils (and because of the dropper).
I only wear it at night because it’s too much on top of my moisturizer for the day time. 

Overall, it’s been a nice experience, I’ve enjoyed the hyaluronic acid and the peptide ampoule the most even though the jojoba oil wasn’t bad. 
I would consider repurchasing the peptide if the packaging changes but the other two products are very basic in my opinion, they’re sold by other brands with better packaging.

Review of The Potions Deep Hydration Trio

Not easy to get your hands on if you live in Europe and quite expensive too (on stylevana since soko glam doesn’t ship to Europe anymore)

I like this product as it can be a skin savior. The texture is nice, the comor is fun and it’s effective when it comes to irritated skin.

Nothing bad really, but it just feels super basic. It’s nice but not amazing and there are better and cheaper options on the market. 

Like all of the watermelon line, the sxent is really really nice. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a greasy film on the skin. It’s a big bottle as well so bot the most expensive product of the brand. 

Feels redundant as niacinamide is everywhere nowadays

I like the texture but since niacinamide is basically in everydingle skincare product i feel line i don’t need it as a single ingredient thing.

The inly bad thing i could find is the fact that it comes in a tube. You need to be avle to wash your hands before reapplying your product during the day, so it can be inconvenient to some people. 

This product is supposed to help with irritations. 
It contains very few ingredients and is comedogene free, fragrance free, paraben free, alcohol free, pregnancy free oil free… 

This product is basically a balm. It’s very thick (kind of like vaseline) and can feel very greasy when put on the face. 
I honestly very rarely use this product on my whole face. I use this for my lips. I suffer from very dry lips all year round so it’s really been a life saver! 
I use it all the time (at night but also during the day) and it’s honestly my holy grail when it comes to lip products. 
The product comes in a tube, so i use my finger to apply it. A little goes a long way (as i said it’s very thick so you don’t need to use a lot for it to be effective). I reapply maybe 3 times throughout the day and put a thin coat on before bed. 
It’s the only lip product i actually always go back to and have been purchasing for about 7 years. I always have one at home and constantly repurchase  it. 
I also use this sometimes on my face if i have dry patches during the winter but it doesn’t happen very often. 

This products is available in pharmacies (at least in France) and is very cheap (about 4€).
