Thankfully, Picky have extended the deadline to sept 15 as it seems shipping delays have effected most of us who won. Hopefully this new deadline will give us plenty of time to thoroughly test out our products so we can give better reviews. Thank you, Picky and SKIN1004, can’t wait to finally get my hands on these  👏🏼

Good morning everyone!

I’m always intrigued by folx top, holy grail, must haves they keep stocked in the skincare stash. 

I have dry/combo, sensitive skin and just cannot tolerate fragrance in my face products anymore. Womp womp. 

It can be difficult navigating to find those FF, gentler products so her are my current top 5:

✨Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Concentrate Cream 

✨Rovectin Clean Lotus Water Cream

✨Isntree 8% AHA Essence

✨Heimish Green Clean Foam

✨Mother Made Enzyme Powder Wash


Let me know what your favourites are!

Fragrance Free Holy Grails!!

May be a little too much for drier skin types

I gotta say, I’ve been really loving this cleanser lately. It’s got a little more cleaning power than I’m used to, I gravitate towards anything gentle or calming for my sensitive skin but this gives me a great clean with its mild yet foamy surfactants balanced with glycerin, multiple molecular weights of Hyaluronic acid, centella and a ton of amino acids. 

It’s texture surprised me on first try, it’s a pretty light, runnier texture so you do have to be careful when dispensing the product out, you do not need a full pump, you’ll be sudsy for days! That being said, I LOVE that it’s in a pump bottle, I don’t think I realized how inconvenient a tube can be sometimes with wet hands and I’m a clumsy bish so this has been a great addition to my routine. 
It has a pleasing light lather, that considering how foamy it actually gets, rinses easily and does not leave my face dry. 

I cannot speak of its ability to cleanse off makeup as I always use an oil cleanser on full glam days, they just work better! But on natural days this is a solid “one and done” foaming cleanser. 

It’s reasonably priced (seems to be on sale often too 👌🏼) for a good size and I think it can work for all skin types but especially the more combo and oilier folx, or even those of us who are drier but live in humid climates, this’ll be a fab choice.

Now, I realize this only has the one filter and titanium dioxide does not quite have the full UV spectrum protection that a lot of us prefer but that being said, I am a very firm believer of any sunscreen you enjoy using is better than not wearing any at all!

It has a lovely light, almost milky texture that spreads very easily and leaves no whitecast! I’m a very white, white girl but I genuinely believe this is a mineral sunscreen that can work on darker skin tones too 😍😱😍 @glowbyramon has a great review on YouTube for any of you melanin endowed beauties to compare.

It can feel kinda wet upon application but doesn’t take to long to work in and dries down quickly to a beautiful satin finish I personally adore. It is moisturizing without being heavy or greasy. It does not pill or collect in my eyebrow hairs and it works fantastically under makeup. 

This has some beautiful, nourishing and soothing ingredients; ceramides, mugwort, honeysuckle extract, green tea, amino acids, and hyaluronic acid. It genuinely helps calm my skin on days where my skin is feeling a lil irritated or after exfoliation. I find myself reaching for this as my spf more often than I don’t. 

I tend to use this more on “indoor” days where I know I will not be in full, direct sunlight but I normally wear some sort of hat to protect my face when I’m outside. I’ve had no issues so far with this spf not providing enough protection so do with that what you will. 

In conclusion, if you struggle with finding a sunscreen you like, have sensitive skin and need&#47;prefer mineral spf, crave something moisturizing but not heavy, this is a solid option. I am nearly out of this tube and I will be sad when it’s empty.

Too strong for daily use on sensitive skin, keep to 2-3 days max a week

This is great for use a couple days a week. 
Does a great job at tackling the sebaceous filament buildup on my nose and mildy helps with KP texture on the cheeks. 
pH 5.5

At first i really liked the aesthetic of the bottle but as its all whited out i cannot tell how mich product is left

This is not exactly a wow product but it delivers. Simple yet soothing. Perfect for those days your skin is feeling irritated and needs calming.

Does not live up to its texture. For my dry skin it is not occlusive enough to keep my skin moisturized over night

Thicker, creamy texture.
