I discovered when I was 25 that my skin is mixed but dehydrated while battling my first and only acne episode to this day. The episode lasted about one year and I tried everything, from dermatologists to cosmetologists, personalised skin analysis and recipes and so on.
The harsh topical treatments left me with sensitivity and a mild reactive rosacea.
You could say I have them all: dehydrated, sensitive, mixed skin with occasional rosacea and pigmentation.
I've tried and tested so many products and cosmetic treatments over the years and only added the best ones to this list - the ones that work for my skin now that I am 29.
You can only do the same thing for yourself - try and test but if your skin type is as crazy as mine, have a look here.
A fresh, effortless look without spending hours in front of the mirror? Yes!

Perfect for everyday wear, quick routines, or when you just want to look put together without overthinking it.

It has taken me years of trial and error to stop hating my fine, frizzy hair and work with I was born with. Turns out, conventional hair care advice such as constant brushing and heavy product use doesn’t always apply to curly hair, especially when it’s on the finer side (a double whammy).
