The consistency is between a gel and a watery texture. 
It is clear in colour. 
There is no scent.

I love applying this essence! My skin feels instantly hydrated after application, it leaves a slight dewy glow too, which I love.  It does take a minute to sink in. I genuinely couldn’t believe how hydrating this is! I’m in love with the packaging too, the bottle is beautiful! This is a great addition to my routine, it is also perfect for winter as it is so nourishing. 

Have you tried this? Or would you like to?

Watery consistency with ceramide capsules. Only a tiny bit is needed as it spreads extremely well. Even 1 drop is too much for a small area! The bottle is the cutest ever, although there is no stopper so have to be extra careful not to get product on the outside. 

Thankfully I haven’t had to reach for this often. But I was really happy to have this on hand! I applied this to the area of a breakout in the evening, by the morning the area seemed less inflamed. I didn’t get results overnight, however within a couple of days the area was clear again! I also love that it is not drying, it actually feels hydrating! This definitely speeds up the healing process which is what I am looking for. 


I would prefer if the lip mask came with an applicator.

The mask is green in colour and has a soft balm texture.

I love a lip mask in my PM routine so when Jocelyn from Stylevana asked me if I’d like to try any products from my Wishlist I jumped at the chance. This one has been on my Wishlist a while🥰

The texture is like a soft balm, is spreads so easily and leaves my lips feeling instantly soft and moisturised. A little goes a long way! When I wake up my lips feel smooth and hydrated. The product doesn’t feel tacky or greasy, it also leaves a glossy finish😍 

A new favourite of mine for sure!! I absolutely recommend this if you need extra hydration for your lips, or if you just want a treat!💜 



I haven’t experienced any irritation from this but I have used 10% of niacinamide previously. If you use this make sure you work it into your routine slowly and patch test first!

TIA’M have changed the packaging of their infamous Vita B3 Source serum, and I love the new packaging! The product still contains 10% niacinamide and 2% arbutin. 

The serum itself has the consistency which is slightly more viscous than water. 3 drops are enough to cover the whole face as it spreads so nicely. I feel that my pores are less visible. So far I have seen that my hyperpigmentation has faded a little and I can’t wait to see the long term effects. I will definitely keep you all updated on the long term results as TIA’M have been generous and gifted me both the old and new packaging.

This sugar mask is rich in antioxidants. It contains Grapefruit extract. Which is obvious because the scent is exactly like grapefruit!😍 It also contains Raspberry seed oil, Shea butter and Jojoba oil.

Dear, Klairs is a vegan brand.
The texture is gritty
The scent is grapefruit

It can be used as a mask if left on for 10 minutes, or it can be used as a scrub. I have used it both ways and I love it!🙌🏼 When rinsing off with warm water it gently cleanses and exfoliates the skin. Leaving behind a soft, smooth, glowy complexion✨. I love how my skin feels afterwards. It also comes with a spatula for hygienic quick application. It does not feel stripping or abrasive🤺.

To be honest I didn’t really experience any benefits from this unfortunately  I was expecting so much more, I can’t say my skin felt particularly hydrated. I don’t have dry skin either so I’m not really sure where I went wrong😔. I do have some left in the tube so I will try again. Maybe you need a thick layer?? Let me know if you’ve tried this and what you thought! I will be trying this again and letting you all know my final thoughts!

It has a very sweet scent of honey.
The consistency is slightly tacky, as expected. Although it is easy to apply and is virtually mess free. The mask doesn’t dry, you can leave it from 10 minutes up to an hour. This is really convenient, there is no rush to wash it off.
