Hey beautiful people! 
I am very curious about the „Black Rice“ line by Haruharu.
I'm seeing it everywhere right now. Almost every creator got a PR package and hardly anything negative to say about it.
That makes me wonder a little bit.
Have you tried this line? What are your opinions about it?

Is it worth the hype?

Hello dear ones! 

I'm going away at the end of September and I'm already thinking about which products to take with me. ✈️
I'm considering minimizing my routine to water-based cleanser, toner, moisturizer and that goes without saying, sunscreen.

What are your travel essentials? Do you travel minimalist or do you have everything with you?

Looking forward to your answers! 😊

off we go!!! but with what?

Hey dear community!

I have read that after applying sunscreen you should wait at least 15 minutes before leaving the house (so that the skin has absorbed everything properly).
I'm barely making it lately (my early morning time management is a disaster right now 🙈).

What is your opinion about it?

Hey lovely skincare community 😊

I‘m about to use up my Purrito Galacto Niacin 97 Power Essence.
Can you guys recommend me an essence that is for combination skin/prone to redness?

It was like washing my face with pure curd soap. 🧼
My skin felt dried out after using it and simply tightened. 
I also failed to create a good lather, even though I had emulsified the cleanser well into my skin beforehand. It also did not wash off easily, I had to apply a lot of pressure. 

I used the cleanser for about two weeks, thinking my skin needed to get used to it. However, the result was always the same: tight and dried out skin. 

I researched for a long time what this could be due to. It contains myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid and lauric acid. All of these acids are combined with the ingredient potassium hydroxide, also known as lye. The reaction of these ingredients together results in a very high pH. Even the really good and beneficial cica ingredients couldn't change that. 

 For my combination skin, this cleanser was unfortunately a bust and I wouldn't recommend it, especially for people with sensitive skin.

The Cica Creamy Foam Cleanser contains the beneficial extracts of Centella Asiatica such as asiatic acid, asiaticoside, madecassic acid and madecassoside. 

I can‘t say anything bad about this exfoliater.

This Resurfacing AHA exfoliator contains 5.25% of glycolic acid which removes dead skin cells and Hyaluronic Acid to add some hydration. Vitamin B5 and Aloe helping to seal the moisture in my skin.
I really love the fact that you getting some soothing components while exfoliating your skin. It‘s not harsh at all. 
Now to the greens: Kale, Spinach and parsley are giving my skin an energy boost and provide it with antioxidants. 🥬

This exfoliator is really bringing out my glow and it’s helping me with the whiteheads I sometimes have on my nose area. 
I use it 2-3 times a week before my nighttime routine. Especially when my skin feels congested it is such a relief. ☁️
Sometimes I experience a slight tingling but that feeling goes away quickly and leaves my skin awakened and energized.

Although it contains almost a green smoothie, it has little inherent odor. But what you can smell is very pleasant.

If you are looking for a gentle way to exfoliate your skin, I can really recommend this gem. 💚

This jet-black cleansing oil is made from a variety of natural plant oils, extracted from black beans, among others. 🌑 Black sesame oil with antioxidants prevents dehydration and skin ageing, and vitamin- and mineral-rich blackcurrant seed oil promotes and strengthens the skin’s protective layer even during cleansing.

This oil is incredibly effective, effortlessly removing all make-up, oil and dirt residues, gently removing dead skin cells and regulating excess sebum production.
Since I started using these oils, I no longer need facial cleansing wipes. An absolute plus.

This eye cream prevents premature aging of the skin around the sensitive eye area.

Its formulation with Centella Asiatica extract and four different types of peptides balances lost body proteins and stimulates collagen production.

The contained concentrated tiger grass extract has a very antibacterial effect and thus provides an irritation-free climate around the eyes. 🌱
I especially appreciate this about the cream! My eyes are very sensitive, but did not feel irritated. Neither by the scent and not even when I rub my eyes after applying (yes I know that I should avoid this 🙄). No redness, no tears.

The cream is very light and absorbs well even with little dabbing.

I apply the cream not only around the eyes. The area around my mouth is also cared for with it. Since the skin here is also comparably thin, the peptides in the eye cream help against smile lines or discoloration in the mouth area.✨

Some people may be irritated by the smell of tamanu oil.

It fights off environmental aggressors and evens out skin tone and texture. Skin is left looking clear and feeling calm. 

With a blend of nourishing oils like safflower seed, tamanu and rosehip, it does exactly what it claims to do, and that is to calm, condition and brighten up the skin without causing irritation or clogging pores. 

This creamy serum is so rich that on some days I leave out the moisturizer or just mix a small amount with the serum. (This works very well for my skin at least).

It’s 100% vegan friendly and cruelty free. 🌱🐇
