REVIEW ON OXYGEN WOMEN AND TEEN SKIN TONER

Hi beautiful people,

An organic, cruelty free 100% natural acne prone skin made in New Zealand, Oxygen women and teen skin toner which I had used for a month.  This toner contains 100% natural skincare products to soothe, heal and repair problematic skin conditions.

Oxygen Skincare is made by Alana and her husband Colin Oldham for over 20 years.

Oxygen product contains the organic hop extract grown on Colin and Alana’s organic hop farm, New Hoplands, near Nelson. New Hoplands is Australasia’s largest organic hop producer. In 2013, Colin was awarded The Knight of the Order of the Hop, the most prestigious award given in the International Hop Industry, for his pioneering of organic hops.

Alana has extensive knowledge of the beauty industry. She owned the Spotlight Modelling Agency in Christchurch, as well as operating Purity 3, a grooming and deportment school of her own creation, for over 18 years.

Oxygen has created a range of skincare for teenage skin problems, oily skin and acne/blemish-prone skin to help soothe and rebalance troubled skin. It’s never too early to start looking after your skin!

Oxygen Skincare products are never tested on animals and contain only natural and organic ingredients.

Ingredients:

Aqua(Water), Organic rubus idaeus (Raspberry)Water, Decyl Glucoside, Organic Humulus lupulus (NZ Hops), Organic Glycerine, Aloe barbadensis leaves Extract, Organic Ascophyllum nodosum (Seaweed) Extract, Citrus noblis (Mandarin)oil, Kiwifruit Enzyme.

Oxygen women and teen skin toner comes in a spray plastic white opaque bottle for easy use.  The mist that came out of it is about medium size droplets. Not super fine but it is smaller than the type that just spray shot of water on the face.  If you spray too near then you will see some whitish bubbles but it disappeared after patting it on the skin.

The ingredients are all organic so it is best to put it inside the fridge or somewhere not exposed to warm or sunlight since you can spoil the properties.  It has short ingredient lists too but still do check out the ingredients.  The ingredients such as mandarin oil, kiwi, seaweed, NZ hops and raspberry water that helps to cool down the temperature for the skin, controls oil on the skin while hydrate the skin at the same time.

Among all the cleanser and the moisturiser I really like this toner the most as I notice the difference when I am not using it .  The toner smells citrusy.  ❤

Oxygen women and teen skin toner  absorbs fast into the skin and does not leave any stickyness.  I do see the effect after using it from 2-3 weeks when I notice that my skin does not break out that often and most of the breakouts clear up faster too.  It does prevent acne and helps to speed up the healing of those acne area even when I do not use other things.    I personally find that this toner does the work of a toner and serum to get rid of acne on the skin.

Overall, Oxygen women and teen skin toner is a toner for oily combination acne prone skin, affordable organic products from New Zealand and gentle enough for everyday usage.

REVIEW ON ISHTAR SKINLIGHTS ULTRALESE 5 MOISTURISER (MANDELIC ACID 5%)

Hi beautiful,

Today is a review on a gentle mandelic acid moisturiser for acne prone skin.  If you are looking for gentle mandelic acid light moisturiser do a have look at this review. It is also a brand from the UK that offer mandelic acid skincare products.

Here is the review on the Ishtar Skinlights Ultralase 5 moisturiser (5% mandelic acid) which contains 5% mandelic acid and has pH of 3.5 for skin type that prefers low pH skincare products.

INGREDIENTS :
Organic Aloe Vera, Mandelic Acid, Sustainably sourced Isopropyl Palmitate, Vegetable Glycerin, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic Acid, Glyceryl Stearate, Organic Safflower Oil, Cassia Angustifolia Seed Polysaccharide, Ocean Mineral Complex, Organic Spirulina, Irish Moss, Yarrow, Shea Butter, Organic Jojoba Oil, Vitamin B5, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexyl Glycerin, Xanthan Gum, Green Tea, Citric Acid.



Ultralase 5 moisturiser is a very light moisturiser made for combination or oily combination skin since aloe vera is very light and absorb fast into the skin. The moisturiser comes in form of gel,  absorbs fast and dry down into a matte feeling even in my hot and humid weather. It doesn't leave any sticky feeling or leaves a greasy feeling so it is nice for those that like light hydrating moisturiser and for summer hot weather.

It has a pH of 3.5 to ensure that the AHA inside it is working and since mandelic acid 5% is known to be very weak, even sensitive skin could use it daily.  If you are the one that love stronger mandelic acid then do you at the other higher percentage of mandelic acid moisturiser inside the website.

I can't really use strong actives without buffering down now so 5% mandelic acid suits me much better.

As for the ingredients there are many moisturising calming ingredients which are beneficial to hydrate the skin and lightly exfoliate the skin to smoothen out the skin texture.  Still do check the ingredients since some people cannot use oil or shea butter.

I use it in the morning as well as night for about 2 weeks and it is a great nice light moisturiser. I do have to wear sunscreen.  My skin is smoother, pores look less visible, brighter and hydrated.  Since it is 5% and in a moisturiser one do need to use it long term since long term use of mandelic acid does stimulates the deep level skin renewal.

For darker skin, mandelic Acid is safe to use since it carries low risk of causing pigmentation issues.  It is best to wear this moisturiser at night instead of during the day.

Overall, Ishtar Skinlights Ultralase 5 moisturiser (mandelic acid 5%) is a nice light moisturiser for light exfoliation of the skin, acne prone, dull skin and for combination or oily skin type.  One can also use it daily without irritation.

*put it inside cool place or inside the fridge

Oxygen women and teen 2 in 1 cleanser is huge bottle of organic cleanser.  The bottle is transparent plastic pump bottle.


The ingredients inside are mild and contains short ingredients list.   There are pumice inside so do add a little of water on the palm first before applying on the face  as the pumice can be a little harsh if you rub it straight to the skin.  There are vitamin E, aloe vera, jojoba oil, hop extract, mandarin oil, coconut oil and contains natural colouring.

The pH of the cleanser is 5.5 and contains mild  surfactant.  The gel cleanser smells like freshly cut grass to me.  It removes light makeup, cleanses the skin well without irritating and not drying my skin.  I have been using once a day at night with double cleansing since using it more than twice can be a drying on my drier part of my face.  I find that the cleanser does control the amount of acne on the skin when I was using it.  The amount of breakouts I experience is lesser and the other breakouts does not become worser.


Overall, Oxygen women and teen 2 in 1 cleanser is great for organic products love, acne prone skin, oily skin and looking for gentle pH 5.5 (low pH cleanser).

Commleaf Vitarice Moisture Cream comes in a nice box that has all the ingredients printed in English  and Korean which is really important considering not everyone can read Hangul.  The cap is aluminum and has Commleaf logo embossed on it.  It is just a really nice beautiful pentagon jar of transparent glass.  So much details put into the packaging design and also the ingredients.  Also to note, Commleaf products is made by a Korean Top manufacturer so you can ensure the safety and quality of their products.

The ingredients inside are safe. (Ingredients list in the photo) It has a lot of moisturising ingredients such as algae, ceramide, rice bran extract, gingko extract, oat kernel extract, allantoin, adenosine, green tea, trehalose and some other plants extracts.  There is a lot of ferments down the list too which is beneficial for those skin that loves ferments. Biotin, Niacinamide (high on the list), Vitamin C and peptide can help to brighten and speed up healing of the skin.

Commleaf Vitarice Moisture Cream has a nice light scent of geranium in it.  It is not strong or overpowering and the scent doesn't stay long on the skin.  The cream is opaque white which turn transparent upon application.  The cream has a very soft smooth texture.  It moisturize the skin for more than 8 hours without feeling heavy or greasy. My skin sure feels very hydrated and don't even need to mist my face through the day when using it.  It is a bit heavy for the oily area of my face but super nice for the rest of my face.  I think it will work really nice for dry skin that needs constant moisture.  My skin sure feels the different when I don't use it for a few days.


Overall, Commleaf Vitarice Moisture Cream is great for normal to dry to normal skin type that loves hydration, ferment, ceramide, brightening and plant ingredients with EWG green rating ingredients.  The brand is cruelty free too.

REVIEW ON THE VEGAN GLOW GOOD NIGHT CREAM

Hi beautiful people,

A cruelty free, affordable, vegan Korean brand?  Here comes the latest newest 2019 skincare brands that is for vegans with cosmetic elegant texture.

Here is a review on The Vegan Glow Good Night Cream 🌲🍀which I have been loving.  It is also my first Korean affordable vegan cream.  I have combination acne prone sensitive skin and also very prone to breakouts and clogged pores too.  So if you have the same skin type as I do, please do have a look at this review.

Vegan glow Good Night Cream are made based strictly vegan plants ingredients and following the EWG green ingredients.  The Vegan glow believe in simple yet effective formula that will provide skin with gentle care.  The ingredients are printed on the box in English itself with EWG rating.


Vegan glow Good Night Cream comes in airless recyclable plastic pump bottle which is just simplistic.  The cap is green with printed moon which signified night cream.  The day cream has the picture of sun.  I think it is a really nice because of most the time, it is hard for us to know which is which when all the bottles look the same.   The box are made from recycle paper and is printed with soy ink which is really good.  Ingredients are made from cruelty free and vegan ingredients.  There is no parabens, no sulfates (SLS and SLES), no phthalates, no PEG and no Dimethicone which some people could be sensitive to it.

I do like the water based night cream which is rare in night cream especially vegan ones cosmetics.  Check out the ingredients on the photos 😃 .  It has arginine, adenosine, sodium hyaluronate, centella asiatica, vitamin E and shea butter that hydrate the skin during the night.  It also helps with healing since centella asiatica is known for their healing ability. Polyglyceryl-3 Methylglucose Distearate is a plant-based emulsifier which is an emollient for skin.

According to The Vegan Glow, the bergamot limit for IFRA is 0.4%. The amount they use in this bottle is less than 0.05% . I am still waiting for answer if the bergamot oil they use is bergapten free. Bergapten Free Bergamot has the same benefits as regular bergamot oil but it doesn’t cause the skin to become sensitive to sunlight.

Vegan glow Good Night Cream has a really nice lightweight texture with soft cream that melts into the skin with no residue.  It absorbs fast on my skin. My skin feels soft, calm the next day and not looking oily.  It doesn't cause me clogged pores or caused breakouts.  It has a very light citrus scent which is calming to me and the scent doesn't stay which is great for someone that does not like scent.  It doesn't get rid of my acne but it sure soothe my redness and does not irritate my skin.

Overall, Vegan glow Good Night Cream is very nice lightweight vegan night cream which is suitable for all skin type even for acne prone skin like mine.  If you are looking for an affordable convenient airless hygienic pump bottle be sure to just have a look at The Vegan Glow.

To cleanse the skin:
Step 1: Dampen the skin and apply an adequate amount of the product onto the palm of your hand.
Step 2: Gently massage the product all over your skin in circular motions for 5-10 seconds before rinsing it off with water.


Ingredients:

Althea Pore Purifying Serum Cleanser comes in a clear transparent blue bottle.  It doesn't have a box 😃 cause I find it hard to throw away nice boxes.

The cleanser can be used two ways.  It doesn't foam so don't rub hard on your skin.  It does remove even the most sweatproof makeup so it is a good makeup remover.  There is no residue after cleansing so you can just use it on its own.  It doesn't dry out the skin too so that is a nice point to it I guess. I checked the pH of the cleanser and it is about 5 to 6.

Althea Pore Purifying Serum Cleanser has a watery texture with viscosity and it does feel smooth without dragging on the skin.  The scent is a subtle plastic with tire scent according to my weird sense of smell.  It is not particular bad but not the usual floral scent.

Overall, Althea Pore Purifying Serum Cleanser is a nice cleanser for any type of skin.
