Murad AHA BHA Exfoliating Cleanser – Worth your money?

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST USES AFFILIATE LINKS AND CONTAINS PR-SAMPLES (GIFTED ITEMS). I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER. It does not happen often that a skincare product leaves me confused. After years of using my face as testing ground for new releases, I tend to know quickly what a product can do for me and which ones I should stay clear from. The Murad AHA BHA Exfoliating Cleanser though was an exception. When I first read it up, I was excited – I love BHA…

The change in EU cosmetics product regulation

EU cosmetics regulation bans free from claims – What does that mean for you?

On July 1st 2019 a technical document came into force that bans the use of several “free from” claims in cosmetics, and that has caused quite a stir. But if you don´t produce cosmetics yourself, how would that change in cosmetic products regulation affect you as a consumer? I admit it isn´t a topic that I usually pay much attention to, and it isn´t a topic you´ll see talked about in a regular beauty video. But with increasingly more people interested in the ingredients they apply to their face and…

pixi Vitamin C Tonic Review – Tonic, toner, does it matter?

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST USES AFFILIATE LINKS AND CONTAINS PR-SAMPLES (GIFTED ITEMS). I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER. Do you know the difference between a toner and a tonic? I don´t, or at least I didn´t until I started writing my pixi Vitamin C Tonic Review. To be fair, I still think they are different names for the same thing, as it often happens in skin care, but that might just be cynic me. I´ll let you decide for yourself while I share my…

Skin types - How to find out which one you are

Skin types – How do I find mine and why does it matter?

Sometimes it is the simple things we struggle with the most, and if we get them wrong, nothing that comes afterwards even has the chance to get right. That is true in so many parts of our lives, and translates into skin care as well. Or into skin types, to stay on topic. Figuring out your skin type is crucial to learn which products (or better: ingredients!) you will need to make your skin become the best version of itself. And it should be fairly easy, don´t you think? …

Beauty Low Buy 2019 – July Update

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST USES AFFILIATE LINKS AND CONTAINS PR-SAMPLES (GIFTED ITEMS). I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER. You know last month, when I told you that my Beauty Low Buy 2019 July Update would probably be less than stellar? Well, it is even worse than I anticipated. Again, disclaimer here: I do by no means want to complain! I am very grateful that I am in the position to receive so many interesting skin care products, but calling this a Low Buy is ridiculous.…

Monthly Recap July 2019

A lot has changed since I posted my last Monthly Recap (read here), both for my blog and in my personal life. Time to bring you up to speed, don´t you think? Blog stuff first: I took (well, am still taking) the Zero to Influence You Tube Bootcamp to help my channel gain momentum and reach the audience I really wanted to reach: People that want quick and honest skincare reviews as well as information about how skin and skin care works. And while I thought I already worked hard…

pixi Vitamin C Juice Cleanser Review – The bottle cap issue

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST USES AFFILIATE LINKS AND CONTAINS PR-SAMPLES (GIFTED ITEMS). I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER. I will spoil this pixi Vitamin C Juice Cleanser Review right at the start and tell you that I was disappointed. Not by the product itself (although I wasn´t too impressed either), but with the bottle cap. How can you be disappointed by a bottle cap, I hear you ask. Did it leak? Did it break? Did it ruin my silk blouse/suede loafers/white carpet because of a…

Beauty Empties July 2019

Advertisement info: This blog post features PR-Samples and uses affiliate links. I did not receive any money to write the blog post or film the video. Please read disclaimer. Is it possible that an Empties post makes you sentimental? Well, in my case it is. But I admit that ever since I had the kids I cry a lot more than I used to. Not that I cried when writing this post, but I did get heavy hearted. It made me think about Sal from UmmBaby Beauty, the queen of…

Merumaya Melting Cleansing Balm Review – Teaching

ADVERTISEMENT INFO: THIS BLOG POST USES AFFILIATE LINKS. I RECEIVED NO MONEY TO WRITE IT. PLEASE READ DISCLAIMER. Ever so often you come around something that has been available for such a long time, you question whether or not putting up a review does actually make any sense. Take the Merumaya Melting Cleansing Balm for example: It has been available for many years now, and there is a ton of rave reviews out there. So is it absolutely necessary that I add my voice to the mix? Well, yes. …

My travel skincare routine

Advertisement info: This blog post uses affiliate links and PR-Samples (gifted items). I received no money to write it. Please read disclaimer. I am all about traveling. And I am all about having an effective skin care routine. And if you decide to go “off the grid” for two weeks in Sweden with a camper van, the effective travel skincare routine might require some planning. At least when most of the available space is occupied with stuffed animals, other toys and food. (My family somehow has other priorities than…
