Which product have you tried here in Picky and you loved so much, that you have bought afterwards? 


I got the Keep Cool Bamboo toner in a giveaway here in Picky and its been a HG of mine since. I'm on my 3rd bottle since.

I got influenced by Picky

I'm curious. Which one soothes and calms your skin better:

Cica or Mugwort?

Also, drop you Cica or mugwort HG here

Cica or Murgwort

We are here to help each other but sometimes it can be too much when the same question is asked several times on a row.

The hyperpigmentation question is asked between 7 to 10 times every day. Very often just after someone has asked the exact same question. 

Angelaa here asked a question about hyperpigmentation. Right after, two people asked the exact same question. When we others scroll down, we answer the first (which was asked last), maybe the second and pass on the third (which was the one asked first). It's a pity for Angelaa. 

Hyperpigmentation is a very annoying and persisting problem. I know myself. But when the question is asked so often, most of us just avoid answering and by using the search option, you will get very good advice and so many good options to treat your issue.

Hey lovely Pickies

We talk widely about mugwort or Cica in here but which one is your favourite botanical ingredient in skincare?

My skin fx. does really good with Green Tea and I have some products that contain it.

It won't come as a surprise for nay that knows me: I really, really like the Benton Green tea toner and the lotion. Even when my skin is dry, the levels of hydration these two give me are amazing!!

What about you??

Favourite botanical

I have been (as some others) quite annoyed about how Picky was lately developing: Dozens of question with no interaction, people that kept asking the same questions, others that really needed help drowning in ocean of questions... 

Today, I can see that people have started interacting again. The questions are real and when you take time to answer them, you get a like or even more questions. 

I am honestly so glad about it because that is, in my opinion what makes Picky a great place to be.

Picky as we love it.

✅There&#39;s literally nothing bad about this cream. I am very impressed with the formulation and the performance and I totally recommend this one to everyone, unless you are allergic to seaweed or sensitive to Niacinamide (2%)

🌊The @purito_official Deep Sea Pure Water Cream is a gel cream that melts into a burst of hydration and feels like a huge glass of water for skin

💦With an impressive list of ingredients, it deeply hydrates, moistures in moderation forming a protective layer that prevents moisture loss without ever feeling heavy on skin

💧The lack of silicones and the choice of macadamia oil and olive derived emulsifiers gives a nice occlusive layer that still allows your skin to breathe

👃It has a neutral and clean smell due to the lack of fragrance and EOs

This is an amazing cream at a great price point

It contains chamomile essential oil and some may react, even though it should be the mildest essential oil.

This is by far, my favourite snail mucin product. Packed with snail mucin and with good ingredients like Azulene, chamomile extract, ferments... 

If your skin is irritated, Red, freaking out... This essence is magic!!

My couperose got really bad after I used a chemical sunscreen. I used this essence as a mask by saturating cotton pads with the essence and leaving them on my skin 10&#47;15 minutes. After only one mask, the difference was striking. After three days, my skin had calmed down and the couperose on my cheeks was much smaller.

It has a wonderful smell. My mom had a product with Azulene when I was a kid and this product smells like that.

The Schwanen Garten Antioxidant Nourishing Cream is an intense anti-aging cream that deeply moisturize and reduces signs of premature aging.

It contains:
*Humectants like water, HA and Glycerin.
*The SG complex using Polyphenol rich organic grown plants that pack an amazing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect like Cica, rosemary, Green tea, Mistletoe, Oregano and Chamomile. 
*Emollients like Squalane, Moringa, Rosehip and jojoba oil and cacao butter. 
*Ceramide NP to support skin barrier. 
*Niacinamide to brighten.
*Bakuchiol to trigger collagen production and increase cell turnover. 
*Adenosine to soothe and restore skin. 
*Free of harmful and toxic ingredients for both animal, human health and environment.

This cream has a pale yellow colour and a mild natural scent of the raw ingredients. To me, it smells of tree bark and lavender on a rainy day. It feels so earthy and calming.

The testure is weird: a light cream, almost gel type that kind of melts and feels super refreshing in contact with skin. However, the cream has a nice body to it and I can feel the emollients. It's not greasy but I can feel the oils nourishing and creating a layer on my skin.

The Niacinamide in it didn't bother me at all. This cream works so, so well for my skin. My skin is hydrated, plumped, healthy and glowy. I use it as night cream and I have noticed a huge improvement, especially around the eyes.

This cream is designed to deal with dryness but the brand has a lighter option with only Squalane as emollient that you might prefer if your skin is on the olier side.

@schwanengarten has been an amazing discovery for me and I'm loving each of the products I have tried. This brand has it all, in my opinion. 


Contains willow bark (possible irritant) and cinnamonn (irritant and allergenic)

This mask aims to absorb excess sebum while soothing irritation and inflammation  and replenishing moisture levels

🌿The mask is quite thick and creamy and  contains dried mugwort leaves in it

👃 It was a very light typical murwort scent, very earthy and somehow &quot;masculine&quot; 

After using this mask, I don’t feel any dryness or tightness in my very dry cheeks. I can not see an improvement on redness but the skin is fresher, smoother and definitely less congested

It works quite good for me. Is a good clay mask for dry skin types

I gave in for the masses and bought this overhyped and highly recommended product.
So... It didn&#39;t work at all

First, it sits on top of skin and doesn&#39;t absorb. I can see the pearls of product on top of my skin like when you sweat. 

Second, there&#39;s no effect. Other salicylic acid products that cost 1&#47;4 work, this doesnt. 

Third, it is super expensive.
