I created this list for women 40+ who are done guessing with skincare. Every product is chosen for performance, not hype - curated to support skin that’s changing and needs intention, not trial and error. Simple, effective, and chosen so you don’t ha...

Rich but not greasy at all. Also without hormone disrupting fragrance! They also have a light version but despite my skin leaning towards the oily side, I prefer the rich version.

Got this tip from a Makeup Artist, put this under your eyes before concealer, if you tend to get crincly undereyes. Makes it so much smoother.

Maybe a bit “gimmicky” BUT it does feel like my skin is less dried out when I'm using this one to wash my face.

The first eye patches that made a visible difference in my under-eyes. Get's down swelling. Use them when you have some time, since they stay on between 1 and 2 hours. So worth it!

I was skeptical, mainly because in the past I had done a “fruit acid peeling” and the derm, which was very painful and left my skin peeling. This here is very different. You do feel a slight tingle, wouldn't really call it a burn but you do feel it. ...

Very moisturizing. I use it as a serum under my face lotion. Morning and night. So it does work under make up as well.

What does this have to do with skincare? I had to lear that we also need skincare from the inside. I've been taking this for the past few years (in my morning coffee - it does not change the flavor) and it makes my skin a bit more plump and bouncy. T...

Keeps those pores clean and dead skin cells away.

This feels so nice! At first you can use it as a gentle mask and when you dampen your hands and rub it in, it foams up a bit, really cleansing the skin. Take your time to massage it in and rinse.

This one surprised me. I know they say that everything that comes off your face using this, is the old skin but I do believe part of it is the rice powder that's in the product. However, this is part of the gentle "scrubbing action" it does. The Hydr...

At the moment this is the only toner I use. It is gentle but still helps keep the pores clean. I especially notice the positive effects, when I wear a lot of makeup or when I am in the sun a lot. The skin gets a bit thicker, as it tans and this toner...

If you had asked me a year ago, I would have said neck cream is a scam but this one here is so rich, it does soften and strengthen the skin on my neck. At times I have used it on my face as well. If you struggle with dry skin, this is a heaven sent. ...
Tighten & Lift Neck Cream

Not only nice for pores but I also use it under my eyes because it has a cooling effect. Feels so refreshing.
CACTOX Pore Relief Multi Balm

I use this on top (!) of my night skincare ca. twice a week. My skin is super soft the next morning.

Gentle but strong at the same time. The “scrubbing pearls” are very small, which makes them very effective on the skin. Old skin cells have no chance. I have this one in my shower and use it a few times a week for the past ca. 5 years.
