PureHeals

For the longest time I’ve been looking for an organic sensitive skin safe peel off pore mask. I’ve done Bioré strips and they absolutely trash my skin. This is so gentile yet STILL gets in all the pores and really does a good clean out! Love this product!!

PureHeals - Propolis Softening Toner I received the PureHeals Propolis Softening Toner as an add-on in my ipsy april glam bag. I can say that I was NOT expecting the results that I got from this toner. I was never much of a toner kind of gal until I started using this one. I had mild textured skin that really bothered me, but once I started using this toner I noticed results within about 1-3 days of use. It has made my skin sooooo smooth and soft that I HAD to repurchase. It also hydrates my skin which I appreciate because my skin is on the drier side. I highly recommend it to anyone that is struggling with skin that has a rough feel to it!! The only downside is that because it is a korean skincare product, it’s difficult to get your hands on. Yesstyle is where I repurchased the full size version but because of covid it’s going to take awhile to get here. Aside from that I definitely think you should get your hands on this!

My skin type is dry, and I live in Southern California, where the air is often really dry. But, I think hydration is important, regardless of skin type. I try to emphasize hydration every day, and have used a few products that I thought I'd review. Let me know your thoughts! Day Time 111SKIN - Y Theorem Day Cream Light Nac Y2 My newest addition. Nice, medium-weight texture. Neutral smelll, feels hydrating. pūrlisse - Watermelon Aqua Balm Loved at first, before I had tried many other products. Has a nice watermelon smell. But the texture is definitely a little "balmy", and doesn't sink into your skin very quickly. it Cosmetics - Confidence in A Gel Lotion Weightless Moisturizer "Weightless" is definitely correct - The texture is super light and slight. Good for when you don't need anything too heavy, or if you don't have very dry skin. Day or Night AVEDA - Botanical kinetics hydrating lotion I've had a giant bottle of this for a while now. Great medium-weight, trusty moisturizer that I use when I run out of others or just want something that I know will work. Good for all skin types. Night Time LANEIGE - Water Bank Moisture Cream Heavier cream, almost lotion-like texture. Great for drier nights. dr botanicals - Pomegranate Superfood Regenerating Sleeping Mask Almost a lotion texture, but whipped up and aerated slightly. Nice smell and feeling. Label says to keep refrigerated for best results, use within 3 months, and use every few days. SUNDAY RILEY - Ice Ceramide Moisturizing Cream Not sure how I feel about this one. It looks like custard and smells like play-dough, but I've noticed that Sunday Riley products often have a bit of a smell, due to the ingredients and that SR doesn't use fragrance to cover it up (which is good!). I'm hesitant to use this cream all over my face, as its a bit thick and heavy. Instead, I use it more as an anti-wrinkle cream on my forehead. PureHeals - Ginseng Berry 80 Overnight Mask One of the only products I've repurchased. Great texture - almost gel-like, goes on easy but is still substantial and feels very hydrating. Smell is also great.

This past month I have been testing some korean skincare products that I was really excited to try these so below are my thoughts! 🤍💛🤍 LAGOM - Cellus Sun Gel SPF50+ I had been on the hunt for an spf I can wear under makeup and on top of my already thick moisturizer. I wanted something that was lightweight but not drying (I’m already married to my belif moisturizing bomb so I wanted something I can use in conjunction to that) and wouldn’t leave me a white cast. I have been using this for over two weeks. It doesn’t look like a gel when you squeeze it out the tube but it does apply very nicely on the skin and doesn’t feel heavy at all. I love this under makeup b/c it doesn’t start to pill nor does it do that on top of my moisturizer either. If you have oily skin you would love this and can definitely use this alone and replace it with your daytime moisturizer. However, I have dry combo skin and I once tested it out on its own and after awhile my skin needed a lot more hydration and had to apply my moisturizer. I’m not mad at this though b/c I wanted to use something in addition to my daily moisturizer. Also it doesn’t smell bad at all. Overall, it’s a great sunscreen and I will be repurchasing. However, it is a little pricey for a small bottle which you’re going to apply every day more than once. PureHeals - Propolis 90 Ampoule After trying out the PureHeals Propolis Softening Toner, I was eager to repurchase the full size and saw that they had a propolis ampoule and added it to my cart. I’ve been trying this out for over two weeks and have been incorporating it into my morning skincare routine. The product is meant to hydrate the skin and it does exactly that, therefore, I think it is a good product. However, I wouldn’t call it a holygrail or something absolutely necessary for my skin b/c I already have other hydrating products that have other benefits in conjunction to that. I don’t think I will be repurchasing b/c it isn’t something I need; however, I do like it and will continue using it until I finish the product. PEACH & LILY - Glass Skin Refining Serum Now, I know my rating of this product is really low but I have my reasons. I know a lot of people rave about this product so I was really excited to try it out! This is not a bad product. Nonetheless, it didn’t give me the results it said it would give me. I have been using this product for over three weeks and it hasn’t done anything for my skin. I was not expecting to get the glass skin that korean influencers have; however, the product says it minimizes pores giving the skin a poreless look. It did none of that. I struggle w/ enlarged pores that are really noticeable, therefore, I was disappointed with this product. I used it consistently day/night but now I use it only in my morning skincare routine b/c it gives me a glowy look. In the end I’ll probably repurchase the sample size simply b/c its a nice dewy primer.
