Hi, I just wanted to ask but would you needed to be allergy tested before using products containing bee venom/propyl is and etc? There’s a Benton serum I’m interested in trying, but I never got an allergy test to see if I’m allergic to bees/bee venom. Not quite sure how it works...

Allergy Testing Before Using Products?

I didn’t find anything bad about this product.

I received this product for free from Picky and Coreana in exchange for my honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I’ve heard of the brand before and I’ve seen a lot of great reviews on the ceramide shot ampoule, so I am super excited to try it out. To start, the packaging is a simple white with the green brand logo, it reminds me of products you’d find at a dermatologist’s office.

The white ampoule is probably one of the thickest consistencies I’ve seen thus far, and is a few levels thicker than the peptide shot ampoule. The dropper is convenient to use and the serum goes on so smooth, but a bit thick. It does sink into your skin slower than with other products, but the moisturizating factor is a bit unreal. It’s genuinely very moisturizing, and takes more than a few minutes to sink into your skin so let it settle a bit before your next skincare step.

I’d actually recommend using this near your last step, just before moisturizer or any other serum going on top will take forever to sink in. Overall, highly recommending this especially with winter around the corner.

I didn’t find anything bad about this product, but I will say there is a scent to it so please keep that in mind if you’re sensitive to scented products.

I’ve heard a lot about Ample:N ampoules and was super excited to try it out. I actually helped one of my aunts purchase a couple of the Peptide Shot ampoules a few years back, but didn’t get any for my mom or myself. The packaging of the ampoule itself is very clean, sleek and reminds me of products you can find at a dermatologist’s office.

The ampoule has a rather unique look that really sets itself apart from other anti-wrinkle and whitening ampoules since it has little peptide chains visibly suspended in the product. It’s lightweight, and sinks into your skin quickly (including those peptide links!). There’s a bit of a scent to the product that kind of reminds me of anti-aging skincare products from the 2010’s, but I don’t mind that.

Overall, I haven’t used this long enough to fully judge it’s anti-wrinkle and whitening properties. But I can say that this is a ampoule that is hydrating, and leaves the skin looking a bit more nourished. I highly recommend giving it a try!

I was gifted this eye cream in exchange for an honest review from Coxir.

This is my first snail mucin eye cream and I’m pretty content with it! This eye cream is supposed to moisturize and prevent fine lines with snail mucin being one of it’s key ingredients. The product is in a slim squeeze tube which is perfect for the eye cream’s watery-gel texture.

The eye cream is lightweight and moisturizing, with the typical stringiness you’ll expect with snail mucin products. The stickiness dries down pretty quickly and doesn’t leave any weird tackiness. It does have a light powdery-floral scent, I don’t find it overpowering but your mileage may vary.

I didn’t find anything bad about the product.

I was gifted this deep sea droplet serum by Purito and it was interesting to use, to say the least. It’s a small bottle so I assumed the serum would be pretty hydrating, and it is! There are also these little clear orbs in the serum which makes the serum nice to look at.

It’s in a clear pump bottle, and you may need 1-2 pumps for your entire face. Now, I’ve been told this was hydrating so I knew what to expect but I didn’t know it was so lightweight. After application and smoothing it into the skin, you’ll be able to feel the hydration but it won’t leave a sticky or tacky layer since it dries down naturally.

I’m used to a heavier serum for the winter months so I ended up saving this to use during the Spring to Summer months. But I recommend trying this out if you’re looking for a lightweight and hydrating serum.

The only bad thing about the product is how strong the scent is, unlike the collagen one, this is a light sweet fruit scent. But for any friends sensitive to scents, this product may not be for you.

To start, this is one of the first solid eye stick products I’ve ever tried so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The packaging is very cute and reminds me of packaging from KBeauty brands in the 2010’s, especially with the polar bear image and cap design.

The eye stick is very cooling when applied and I found that it helps de puff the eyes in the morning. Additionally, it’s really hydrating but also light enough to be layered up if need be. I’ve been using this for over one month now and it’s been doing very well at combating the seasonal dry under eye area for me.

Coming in at about $8-$9 CAD per stick at most online retailers, I think this is a product that’s worth a try. And the compact size makes it easy to travel with, so I highly recommend trying this out.
