Super excited to have these arrive - looking forward to trying them out over the next few weeks and letting you know my thoughts.

The packaging is lovely - I am really curious about these products, especially if they have any scent! 💜

Will post my reviews in a few weeks - please comment if there is anything in particular you are interested in hearing about!

Received my Isntree giveaway items!

I am so excited, I just had to share. I checked my junk mail (would always recommend doing this regularly, just in case!) and found one from Picky saying I had won the recent Isntree Onion Newpair Line (+ HA Sun Cream). 

So over the moon! I had entered so many and thought maybe I was unlucky or just not eligible, but I am happy that I get to try these new products!

I hope they arrive soon so I can provide a thorough review on Instagram and Picky 🎉

I won my first Picky Giveaway!

I have been wanting to try the Chestnut AHA clear essence for a long time now, so really excited to have this opportunity. Thanks Isntree & Picky! 

I tried the Isntree Onion line as part of their giveaway and really loved their gel cream, so hopefully I will find another Holy Grail prlduct in these three!

Did anyone else get the notification they had won? Which of the products are you most looking forward to trying?

I won the Isntree new design giveaway!

Is anyone else having a similar issue after updating to the latest version of the app? I have tried to apply for giveaways but get an error that to apply I need to re-verify my e-mail. Happy to do that but the e-mail never arrives and the re-send button doesn't work!

Would love any advice or how to contact the lovely Picky crew for assistance 💕

Keen to get it fixed so I can apply for the November 18th giveaways 🤣

Stylevana: INF10PANGOLIN

There isn&#39;t anything bad to note aboyt this product.

I am a big fan of the calming serum, but love this one too! It has some great ingredients in, is a little thicker consistency than the calming one but thats not a bad thing. The bottles are plastic but are quality and a little goes a long way. These serums are a staple in my routine.

Before I bought this I was warned about the smell - its kind of curry or burnt sugar? Initially I noticed it but it wasnt as bad as I was expecting, and now I dont even notice when I use it.

I am so glad I bought this - I was not sure about the price point and I had not seen a difference from BHAs previously, but I am obsessed!

I have been using this every other night for a couple of months now and I am in love!

I have found it has really helped to even out my skin tone while keeping my skin hydrated - there was some slight tingling upon initial application but that was expected. I have some hyperpigmentation which I am trying to reduce and this is having a positive effect.

If you find your skin is a bit dull, or you are keen to reduce the appearance of pores, then this is for you. Even better, is in a glass bottle which means it looks and feels fancy and is recyclable.

I would be sure to cut open the tube when finished to ensure you get all the product.

No downsides for me, I really like this.

I am a big ran of the overnight rice mask, which is my HG, but really enjoy this one too. I have dry skin and it works well, but it has a thicker clear gel like consistency which I think would be nice for oily or combination skin. I use it primarily as an overnight mask, after a moisturiser (usually) but it does make a lovely day moisturiser too if you use a small amount.

It hydrates and I have found the propolis to be anti inflammatory and therefor help acne breakouts. I even use it in the same routine as the Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum to really embrace propolis!

I can&#39;t say there has been anything negative about using this over the last few months - it might not be moisturising enough for all skin types but I do use a moisturiser underneath in the winter months.

This is one of my holy grails! After applying this as the last step in my PM routine, the next morning my skin is plumper, softer and more hydrated. It helps calms redness and has never irritated my skin - a little bit of it goes quite a long way too. I can&#39;t recommend this highly enough.

I can not fault this - I do not have lots of redness but it does help settle my skin amd reduce any irritation I do have.

Another stunning Beauty of Joseon serum!

Review:
I have found this to be a great serum for reducing redness and soothing my skin. I love the lightweight texture and it works well either in the AM or PM. It has some fantastic ingredients - Green tea is rich in antioxidants - but it is gentle and calming enough to use on sensitive skin without irritating. 

2-3 drops goes a long way, so I find a bottle lasts a long time and it&#39;s great value for money.
