Mary & May Review

Reviewing @marynmay_official ✨ Brand: An eco-friendly korean brand specialising in effective, transparent formulas with simplistic packaging and renown ingredients. Reminds me of the deciem brands but with elegant korean formulations. Products: (+ review) 1. White Collagen Cleansing Foam: While having collagen in a diet can be helpful, it’s topical benefits aren’t backed by many studies. This cleanser has a rich lather than felt a little stripping for my skin. I like that there’s 1% niacinamide in this, making it better suited for oilier skin types. 7/10 2. Vitamin B5+ Bifida Toner: Y’all know I love a good panthenol rich product in my routine. Fermented skincare helps actives penetrate better too. With 1% panthenol and 3% bifida fermentation lysate, this toner is hydrating and easy to dispense. However, there’s a strong fragrance in this that my face just can’t tolerate. 😭 6/10 3. Idebenone + Blackberry complex serum: Now we’re getting into the good stuff! This serum is rich in antioxidants from blueberry and ubiquinone, and has arginine for a dose of anti-aging benefits. I can’t attest to the latter claim yet, but I’ve definitely been enjoying adding this to my routine in place of an antioxidant serum. It’s hydrating and emollient too, so great for winter! (Swipe for texture) 8/10 ✨ 4. Idebenone Blackberry Intense Cream: This. Cream. Is. A. Dream. Such a rich buttery texture! (Swipe for texture) The first night I used this, I was so shocked because I didn’t expect it to be so emollient yet not feel greasy or tacky on the skin. It seals everything in and prevents TEWL (transepidermal water-loss) throughout the night. The ingredients list is stellar with 63% blackberry complex, ubiquinone, cholesterol, ceramides, fatty acids, panthenol & hyaluronic acid. 😍It can very well go up against more high-end moisturisers (and beat them)! 9/10 🔥 *I was sent these products from @stylekorean_global as part of their #TryMeReviewMe Club #stylekorean #stylekorean_global #marynmay #trymereviewme_marynmay
