I’m looking for everyone’s suggestions for a rich moisturiser. I have oily / combination skin but during the winter, I get dry patches around my nose and chin. I’m looking for a richer, thicker moisturiser that I can use at night to help with my dry patches as a gel moisturiser doesn’t do the job for me in the winter.

Let me know your favourites 😊

Recommendations for a rich moisturiser

Hi guys! I hope you can all help me - I have completely fallen in love with Korean skincare (I have only tried the brand ‘Some By Mi’ - love their AHA BHA PHA cream) 🥰

Can anyone suggest any brands / products from Korean skincare brands for oily / combination skin (with a little sensitivity)

Bonus points if I can purchase them on YESSTYLE as I already have a small basket full of items 😂

I’m so super excited to try out Skin1004’s Madagascar Centella Ampoule that arrived today 🙌

I’m not an expert photographer but I took a couple of photos - can’t wait to try it! 😍

Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Ampoule 🥰

Absolutely nothing at all, no irritation or stinging and I can see results already!

*gifted by Picky and Skin1004 in exchange for an honest review*

This ampoule contains a vitamin C derivative, tranexamic acid and Niacinamide which claims to brighten skin whilst also aiding uneven skin tone and reducing the appearance of dark spots.

I received Skin1004’s centella ampoule from Picky last year and I loooved it, so I was super excited to try this ampoule, too. Let me tell you, I was not disappointed!

🤍 it has a light, delicate, herbal scent which I really enjoyed
🤍 it has a thick, gel like texture (as opposed to the watery texture of the centella ampoule) but it sinks in to the skin really nicely
🤍 I’ve been using it once a day in the morning for almost two weeks now and have noticed some significant improvement on some of my most stubborn dark spots, so I’m hopeful that with long term use it will make a huge difference 
🤍 the niacinamide helps to soothe and calm my skin
🤍 the 100ml bottle is a very generous size and will last absolutely ages

It does sting a little when first applied, but I think this is due to the strong citrus-y fragrance. However, I think there is a fragrance-free version.

I loved the thick, creamy texture of this cream cleanser. It left my skin feeling clean, smooth and soft. It contains AHAs and BHAs to help improve uneven skin tone and texture. It comes in a generous 150ml pot and a little goes a long way. It is also budget-friendly at just over £10 a pot.

It can be a little oily, but not enough to put me off. The main reason I would never buy this balm is the ridiculously high price point - I will definitely try to find a more affordable alternative.

This recovery balm is amazing! The texture is thick and nourishing and it has a very calming scent. The cream is soothing and non-irritating and sinks in nicely without leaving a film on my skin.

This balm has helped me with dry patches and I always wake up with glowy skin the day after. It also helps fo reduce redness.

It leaves my skin feeling a little greasy and sticky

I have noticed a slight reduction in my dark spots and scarring after a short period of time, lovely light scent, sinks in nicely and doesn’t pill with other products

This ampoule is heavily scented with tea tree and I found that it did cause some stinging.

*gifted by Picky and CommonLabs in exchange for an honest review*

CommonLabs’ Vitamin E range contains 72% tea tree leaf extract, as well as madecassoside to promote healing, allantoin to soothe, vitamin E to protect the skin and their patented ingredient gesolza to reduce inflammation.

This ampoule had a thicker consistency than I was expecting, but it wasn’t sticky. It left my skin feeling smooth and soft, not stripped, and I did notice a slight reduction in redness. 

I love the packaging and I love that the range is cruelty free and doesn’t test on animals.
