• This is very nit picky, but it claims to be fragrance free, but it just may be -synthetic- fragrance free as I smell a hint of sweetness from the essence, but it's very light 

Fun fact: Our grandpa's dog got a little too excited by a treat in my hand and scratched my arm and left 2 long red scratch marks. I applied this product on my arm out of curiosity, and it actually helped calm a lot of the redness down 🤯

🐌 Key Highlights
• 96% snail mucin extract, which is anti-inflammatory and helps control sebum 
• hyaluronic acid 
• antioxidants 
• plant collagen aids skin elasticity 
• AC-cica Pure Complex, which is great for acne prone skin and helps relieve acne scars
• Centella asiatica extract helps soothe and calm skin

🐌 My Experience
• I use this inbetween a toner and a serum 
• It has a very thin and runny consistency so it absorbs into my skin quickly yet hydrates it 
• The essence does hydrate and plump my skin
• As you read above, it definitely calms skin too
• I'm not sure about the claim about it helping acne scars yet, I'll have to keep using it
• Overall, it's a nice essence. It's nothing mind blowing but it does the job
• It's worth a try! 

• There's only one size of each nail per design, so if you want matching patterns on both your hands, you'll have to use different sizes of nail strips or just settle for mismatching nail designs, i.e. your thumbs won't have matching designs 
• In my opinion, it's a little pricey, but it can still be cheaper than getting your nails done at a salon
• Not really a con, but I'd recommend going over the gel strips with a top coat so the edges stay in place

• The gel strips are so easy to apply. My nails are very curved but they wrapped around my nails easily without any creasing 
• I appreciate the variety of sizes 
• The excess strip is easy to file off 
• They look so near and professionally done! 
• They last. I've had them on for 5 days already, and they've stayed looking fresh 
• I love that the lamp automatically turns off after 60 seconds, which is how long you need to cure the nails 

If I’m being picky, the packaging causes the toner to fall out too slowly.

This toner contains calming and very hydrating ingredients: centella extract, panthenol, and sodium hyaluronate. It is thick for a toner, but it still absorbs beautifully into the skin. I like that it is thicker because it makes my skin feel more moisturized than other toners. It helps calm down any redness I may have on my face, especially when my skin flares up due to allergies. I also love that this is unscented. This will be great for my combo oily skin as it gets colder.

I'm skeptical if this will expire quicker than other serums as it doesn't list any preservatives in the ingredient list. We'll see.

I love Centella. Whenever I have red irritated skin, Centella is such a calming ingredient. This Ampoule is basically 100% Centella. It's simple, but it does the job - it moisturizes and calms any redness. This ampoule is more thin and runny so it works for day time, but I also use it an night with other skincare.

I did mention that it is on the thicker side, and it contains a bunch of oils, so it  may feel too oily and thick if you already have oily skin. Those with dry or combo skin would definitely like this moisturizer better. Because it is so thick, I also find that it doesn&#39;t immediately soak into the skin and you might have to rub it in for a while. A trick that I do is to spray my face with water and then apply the moisturizer. When your face is slightly damp, this moisturizer has a way easier time soaking into the skin. Also, I think this is worth mentioning - this moisturizer also has a slight herbal-like scent when you first apply it, but it disappears after a few minutes.

Highlights
• Ceramides, shea butter, jojoba seed oil, hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid, squalane 
• targeted towards dehydrated, red, or uneven skin 
• deeply hydrates, calms redness and irritation

I am in love with this moisturizer. I was actually looking for a thicker moisturizer for going into the colder months, and then this one literally showed up at my door. Pure&#39;am claims that you can use this moisturizer for both day and night time, but personally, I only use it during my night routine. My dehydrated combo oily skin loves this moisturizer. It feels so thick and luxurious. It has everything I need in a nighttime moisturizer. It has humectants (hyaluronic acid) to pull moisture in, ingredients that moisturize (all those delicious oils), and occlusives (shea butter) that create a barrier to keep all the moisture locked in. Because of all those components, it keeps my face moisturized all night, and my face doesn&#39;t feel tight in the morning. 

Overall, I love this moisturizer so so much. I am so glad I was given the opportunity to try it. This will be my go-to moisturizer for the upcoming colder months! I highly recommend this moisturizer.
