I got the shade 02 Candy Halo and it’s such a beautiful natural pink shade for everyday use.
💓Things I love about the gloss
- Very hydrating (contains squalene)
- Non sticky
- Sit comfortably on lips
- No fragrance or taste
- High shine
- Lasts 3-4 hours for me
Things I don’t like 👎
- the wand is small and doesn’t get the product out so you have to keep dipping it multiple times
- Didn’t find the product worth the price. You can get these same things from a drugstore lip gloss
- Colour appears sightly different than on website and I don’t think the colour gloss looks any different on me than the clear one.

PanOxyl PM Blemish Brightening Patches

I get the worst type of acne i.e nodular cystic acne and have huge pimples on my face that takes weeks to clear out and leave spots and scars that take months to fade. I tried the free sample of 4 patches on one of my dark spots and it did nothing for me. I kept the patch on for more than 12 hours. The spot was still of the same colour and no difference to be honest. May be it works for the small read spot but not on the nasty dark PIE that I have. Also I only used for 4 days and it is indeed a small time to notice a difference. I did however help to hide the spots and I liked that. Also the patch sticks well to the skin and doesn't come off at all or isn't noticeable that you are wearing it even in day light.

Been wearing this everyday to work and I have received so many compliments on my skin. I hardly get time to get ready in the morning and this foundation saves me so much time. I apply it after my skincare so my skin is dewy. Extremely lightweight, sits comfortably on my skin and a little does the job. Covers all my acne scars and hyperpigmentation so well. I even use it as a concealer and I love the coverage. It literally sets itself as it claims and does not need setting powder. Stays put upto 12 hours for me that's how long I have worn it. I also go to gym and do 10k steps after work and this foundation does not budge. I LOVE this one and I am apply just this one product coming summer.

I love Grown Alchemist brand for their vegan, cruelty free products, and so I was really excited to try their Instant Smoothing Serum - and it lived upto my expectations!
I have an acne prone sensitive skin and this serum helps to soothe my skin without making it irritated. I always need a good hydrating serum since I am on tret and it makes my skin dry and flaky. I've been using this serum in the morning routine after essence, and I've noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my pores and the overall hydration of my skin. The serum feels lightweight and gets absorbed so easily, leaving my skin feeling smooth and hydrated!
It has sodium hyaluronate which is smaller in molecular size than sodium hyaluronic acid so it gets absorbed easily into the layers of our skin and it attracts moisture to itself. I always use a moisturiser over the serum to lock in all the moisture.
Love this serum

I have scars from acne and uneven skin texture. I am also on tret so my skin used to feel dry every morning. Been using this product since last 2 weeks and it has significantly improved the texture of my skin. I also wake up feeling soft and hydrated. No dry patches. It has also reduced the appearance of dark spots. The serum is very lightweight and gets absorbed like magic. I use a moisturising cream afterwards. Really excited to see long term use of this serum.
It is definitely worth the money.

Obsessed with this lipstick that offers all the shine and hydration of a lip oil.
What I LIKE 💗:
Hydrating
Shiny dewy finish
Non sticky
Very lightweight on lips for a lip oil (I forget it’s on my lips)
Buildable formula
Great shade range
Also I wore it everyday for the last week and my lips felt always so soft and hydrated with just a single application in the morning. So the shine and colour might not stay put but formula continues to keep the lips hydrated for a long time.
What I DON’T LIKE👎: Honestly, as a brown skin girlie, this shade kind of washed me off a little. I would also like to mention that it doesn’t have a great staying power like a lipstick. But it definitely stays longer than a lip oil would.

The formula is extremely hydrating and glides like butter on the lips. I lo ve the sheer and shine it gives my lips without feeling heavy or without any stickiness. The colour is buildable. Shade 150 gives a nude pink natural look to my lips and I LOVE it. Suitable for brown skin.
Don't like: Nothing in my opinion. However, I do feel it has a less staying power than of a lipstick.
