Intense hydration. Thick formula without being sticky. Extremely calming for the skin and has really helped with skin texture as well. Definitely a great product for dry/combination skin. Last a really long while as you only need a pea-size amount.

Think if this as an antibacterial spray for your face. Calming, hydrating and really effective. Can just use this as a toner after cleansing, for a simple skin care routine. I have also used this on makeup too. Can reapply easily through the day as a...

Botox in a bottle. If you have warmed up to retinol, this is the next step. Its pricey, but worth the hype. Start with just a little bit.

If you are just getting into retinol/retinal, this is a good place to start. I did not see any purging with this, but that really depends on the individual skin type. Its hydrating. The formula is thick but effective. Use it 1-2 times in a week to st...

I great upgrade for your hyaluronic acid. Calming, intensely hydrating, not sticky or thick. I bought mine last year and only ran out a few days ago. Great for hotter temps as well.

If you need a volumising blowout, this is the one. Does not leave any residue. Does not make hair feel sticky or heavy. Follow it up with velcro rollers or a blow dry as you would and let it sit for 10 minutes. You really don't need much else. I have...

Great lip balm. Though I find I ran out really fast. Does the job. Again good as a topper and you don't need to reapply as often.
