Direction

Protini Polypeptide Cream: Apply morning and night to clean, dry skin. It refreshes tired skin and lets it calm for the day ahead. 

A-Passioni Retinol Cream: Apply a pea-sized amount or less to a clean and dry face. For first-time users, use only 1-2 times a week increasing the frequency to every other night until your skin can finally tolerate every night of use. Proceed with caution if you’re sensitive or new to retinol - this may induce redness/irritation to begin with and you may incur some flakiness until your skin acclimatizes. Avoid using the night before a big event/special occasion (unless you’re already a retinol addict)! Avoid applying to eye area and use a broad spectrum SPF during the day. 

B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum: Apply the serum to any part of the body needing hydration (face, neck, chest, hands, etc.). You can mix it with any cream, oil or serum to lock it in.

Slaai Makeup Melting Butter Cleanser & Bamboo Booster:

PM: Use the cleanser in massaging over face and eye areas. You may add water to activate. You can remove it later with a damp cloth or rinse with warm water, and then pay dry. 

AM: Once or twice a week, you may want to exfoliate by customizing Slaai Makeup Melting Butter Cleanser with Bamboo Booster. This refines the skin in removing dead cells. Avoid using the mixture on eye area. If you are already using retinol, avoid using Bamboo Booster as it can be too much for skin.

Marula oil is included as a base note in lotions, soaps, hair essentials, nail treatments, perfumes and other skincare formulation because it has a floral, fruity, scent with a nutty undertone. Marula oil is high in amino acids, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids. It’s intrinsically used as an ingredient in skincare products for acne-prone, oily, dry, and mature skin.

The Protini Polypeptide Cream of drunk elephant the midi committee kit is basically infused with this sacred, exotic oil.

Peptides penetrate deep into the dermal layer to promote healing, to help stimulate collagen, and to reduce the injury caused by UV radiation from sunlight—including minimizing melanin.

Review 

While normally a lot of users fell in love with the signature scent of Caudalie products, unfortunately, only one of these products actually smelled that way, and that was the micellar water. 

The eye cream and sorbet moisturizer had a little of that scent but not exactly. Maybe these products are not supposed to have the signature scent or as users said, they are just somewhat an old stock. 

While the micellar water smells great, according to review it does not perform that well. Makeup residues still remain. For something so expensive, people would expect it to work at least as well as, if not better, than a drugstore brand. 

The spray toner has a completely different smell, strong and somewhat minty while the clay mask is kind of nice if you’re a fan of clay masks. 

What users prefer the most is the eye cream. It is light, smooth and absorbs well. However, since it did not bear that signature Caudalie smell they are expecting, it turned out to be a disappointment. Bottom line is for a pricey travel kit, its not worth it, your money is better spent on other products.

Make your morning and night routine simple and uncomplicated by adapting these steps to natural beauty. Next time you travel, drop by the vineyard in Bordeaux, France where Caudalie skincare brand was born.

Pros:

  • Smells heavenly, its signature scent
  • Perfect travel kit. 
  • The kit lasts for 45 days

Cons:

  • Lotion is lump
  • Old stock

Inna Organic Skincare Lux Set

Inna Organic Skincare Lux Set

Inna Organic is a leading Taiwanese cosmetics brand that has made inroads into the ASEAN market and is planning to expand into the European and American markets this year, and is now in full swing. 

Created for optimum skin health and beauty, Inna Organic offers a natural, safe and essential skincare arsenal to defy the aging process. Its mission to spread the benefits of organic ingredients in each of their product is a lifelong legacy. Through its innovative skincare products, it invites you to take a ride on a life-changing experience of skin reborn - the radiance from within. It will not only transform your skin to a smoother new look but it will boost your confidence so you gain back self-esteem. 

The Cleanser

Wash face thoroughly with Skin Cleansing Purifying Gel. This ensures no more dirt, oil and makeup residue are left in the face.  Only two pumps of this gel go a long way. 

Gently scrub the face in a massaging mode. Use once for daily cleansing, and repeat to remove makeup. Rinse the skin afterwards with lukewarm water. Observe that the natural ingredients cleanse the skin right into the pores without leaving the skin dry and itchy, making it the ideal cleanser for the sensitive type.

The Toner

After the skin is cleansed and prepared, the next step is to use the Frankincense Boosting Revitalizing Toner. Administer the solution evenly by spraying directly onto the skin and softly press the skin to help the toner to penetrate while the pores are still open. This process assists the skin to prepare for the moisturizers and all the goodness in it.

The Oil and Lotion Mix (Optimum Hydration)

There is no all-in-one skincare product for the changing weather. Each season needs a different kit to condition the skin, and this is where blending two or more different products comes in handy. With Inna Organic Frankincense Revitalizing Oil and Frankincense Revitalizing Face Lotion, you can come up with the most suitable hypoallergenic formula to hydrate and firm the skin. 

How to mix and use:

  • Take three pumps of Frankincense Revitalizing Face Lotion and mix it with 3-5 drops of Frankincense Revitalizing Oil. Warm the mixture in your palms as you blend the two. Apply onto face massaging in a circular motion, lifting upward from the chin to the cheek to stretch and lift the sagged skin. 
  • You may use a solo product or combined depending on your need as the weather calls for it. If one has oily skin type and the weather is hot and humid, you need to just use Frankincense Revitalizing Face Lotion every day. If your skin is dry and you are traveling to dry areas, you can add few more drops of Frankincense Revitalizing Oil to keep you always moisturized not just hydrated.

The Oil and Cream Mix (Anti-aging duo)

With Inna Organic's Frankincense Revitalizing Oil and age defying Frankincense Revitalizing Face and Eye Cream, you can moisturize your skin and fight the signs of aging through balancing the oil and water on your skin. This is known as moisturizing and hydrating which are two different things. 

How to mix and use:

  • Take one scoop of Frankincense Revitalizing Face & Eye Cream and mix it with 3-5 drops of Frankincense Revitalizing Oil. Warm the mixture in your palms combining oil and cream. Apply with the whole palm; gently cover your face with the entirety of the palm. 
  • Adjusting the proportion is important if one has oily skin in a warm weather. You may choose to only use Frankincense Revitalizing Face & Eye Cream for your everyday skincare routine. Be cautious on the eye area as eye creams cannot be tolerated when it gets in contact with the eyes. 
  • Add more drops of Frankincense Revitalizing Oil to improve the moisture level if you have dry skin and within dry areas when on a trip.

Pros:

  • For all skin types (you may choose a kit for oily skin or for dry, aging skin) 
  • Specializes in smoothing folds, creases, fine lines and wrinkles
