Read if your vit C serum turned yellow/orange⬇️

🍊How we can tell if a Vitamin C Serum Oxidised:

The color of the vitamin C serum gives a good idea if its oxidised. 

Light yellow- The serum has started oxidation but good to use. The potency has started decreasing. 

Orange/brown - It's completely oxidised and lost all effectiveness. 

🍊Factors that Influence Vitamin C Oxidation:

 The three factors that promotes vitamin C oxidation are heat, light, and air. 

Heat and light can be restricted by storing vitamin C serum in a cool, dark place. Air can be restricted by tightly locking the cap immediately after using the serum.

🍊Can we use oxidised vitamin C serum?
Yes, we can, but only if it has turned slightly yellow. This is usually a sign that the oxidisation has started, but the formula is still potent enough to deliver its benefits to the skin.

 If however, it has a dark orange or brown colour to it, it’s best to avoid using it all together as it not only useless on the skin, it will also create a barrier on the surface of the skin that can interfere with other active ingredients and formulas absorbing effectively into the skin.

There is no strong research on how Oxidised vit C can harm our skin, but when oxidised, the product becomes something else which is not Vit C. Hence the benefits we were supposed to get from Vit C, won't get anymore. So it's better not to use the oxidised vitamin C.

Hope this helps.

🫰🏻 Body Sunscreen-
Just like the face SPF is a must for the body also.

🐌 My Skin  type - Dry and Sensitive
🐌My Experience - 
I have started using it last year when my skin was in worst acne condition. I have dry skin, and had acne on top of it, my skin used to become more dry whenever I used to put anything to treat pimples. It literally helped me a lot with that dryness.
I have used it as essence, used with sheet mask and as after sun care. It really soothes the skin. Visible changes I could see after using this as a part of my daily routine. (swipe and see my skin changes). 
Does not make skin oily, yet provides hydration. Even if the label claims this to be a product for dry and sensitive skin, I felt personally any skin type can use this, Even people with oily skin can skip moisturizer if they are using this in their routine. 
Also the best part is, it has betaine, allantoin, panthenol along with snail secretion filtrate(87%), all of which are great  as soothing agent and contributors to make skin hydrated, and to calm the dry and itchiness.
🐌Rating - 4.5 &#47;5 (0.5 for the availability)
🐌Will I repurchase - Yes!  In a heartbeat

🔆 Final Verdict - It's definitely a good mineral sunscreen with lots of goodies inside but I am not a fan of the stickiness. Also I don't think I can afford it anytime soon.

 🔆𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 -
📍𝙈𝙮 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝘿𝙧𝙮 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘼𝙘𝙣𝙚𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙚
▫️Texture - The texture is lightweight creamy. Blends easily.
▫️Finish - Gives matte finish. But my skin feels sticky after applying this. Not so heavy but feels like something is on my face that I need to remove. Also I find it's hard to re-apply.
▫️Pilling - Never experienced pilling when applied with or without multiple products. Due to stickiness I never used it for reapplication.
▫️Stings? - No.
▫️White cast - goes away when settles down. And just like any other physical subscreen,it takes forever to blend!
The white cast might be visible on darker skin tone.
▫️Did it break me out? - No
▫️For who? -  Anyone can use if they love mineral sunscreen. For dry skin its pretty fine, but oily skin might feel overwhelming in summers.
▫️Water resistant? - I experienced its melting down with sweat, so no, its not.
▫️Prevent Tanning? - Yes! absolutely.

🔆𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 -
📍𝙈𝙮 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝘿𝙧𝙮 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘼𝙘𝙣𝙚𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙚
▫️Texture - It has creamy texture. Blends quickly and easy.
▫️Finish - Leaves a wonderful glow to the skin. Initially it gives dewy finish, later on settles down to normal finish.
▫️White cast - Not at all.
▫️Pilling - Not experienced so far. Reapplication is easy. 
▫️ Stings eyes/skin? - No
▫️Did it break me out? - No
▫️For who? - All skin types, throughout the year.
▫️Water resistant? - Honestly speaking, I don't swim, so can't say how it will react during swimming. 
But I didn't see its melting down with sweat. So if that's a criteria to judge it as water resistant spf, then it is.
▫️Prevent Tanning? - Yes I felt it's pretty good in preventing tan.

🔆 Final Verdict -
It's a perfect pick for my dry skin. I wish it's easily available in India then definitely it will be added to my repurchase list. 

-Nothing bad I could see!! Except Availability in India.

Product -  Sedum Essence
💧Packaging - Simple bottle with screw cap. 
💧Fragrance -  No added fragrance.
💧 Texture - Watery but thicker thatn water.
💧Goodies - Sedum Extract 65%, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramide NP.
💧My Experience - 
 📍My Skin is super dry and sensitive.
 I like the hydration from it. Because of its watery texture I use this as toner both in am and pm routine daily. Even if I forget to apply anything after this for sometime, my skin doesn&#39;t start to feel stretchy or tight. 
Provides a subtle glow to the skin right after applying it. The skin doesn&#39;t feel sticky at all.
I am half bottle done and it becomes my holy grail Product.
I personally felt that if someone wants to keeps their skincare routine really minimalistic then this can be used as a toner-serum-essence and just top it up with moisturizer. Also it didn&#39;t break me out.
⭐Pros
- Hydrating
- Quickly absorbed, no sticky feeling
💧Recommendation - 
Anyone with dry and dehydrated skin. 
Oily skin might feel a little overwhelmed after application.
I have sensitive skin and I am using this comfortably, so sensitive skin people also can give it a try (although for Sensitive skin, I always recommend patch test).

Using this Fruit AHA Cleanser from brand Re&#39;equil  for past few months.. Hence its review time.
💮 Texture-  gel like smooth texture with nice subtle fragrance. Lathers easily, glides on skin like butter.
💮 Price - INR 450&#47;- for 200ml.
💮 Ingredients - see in the pic

💮Skin type -All skin types (My skin type is dry and sensitive)

💮My experience - 
-The one thing I look in Cleansers that it shouldn&#39;t strip away the moisture from skin while cleansing the dirt, and I am totally satisfied.
-Presence of natural AHA within it gives the skin subtle glow and with long term use, the skin becomes even and I personally felt that it takes care of little bumps too. 
- It cleans the skin pretty well. Although, if you have makeup on, must clean the make-up with cleansing oil&#47;micellar water, because its so mild and won&#39;t be able to clean up makeup alone. 
After half a bottle I had stopped using it and switched to another cleanser, but I ended up going back to this one.
- I literally couldn&#39;t find any cons!
💮Rating - 5&#47;5 ​

💮Will I repurchase -Its my new found love and yes I am gonna stick to it for a while ✅
