Dry / Dehydrated Skin Reviews
Skin is often tight and uncomfortable. It can have a dull and flaky appearance. Wrinkles are more prominent. Skin feels dry after showering but feels more comfortable after moisturising; however can feel tight again by midday.

REN Rosa Centifolia Micellar Cleansing Water

Right, let me just get this out the way as I find it so pointlessly misleading and confusing; Rosa Centifolia is not a range designed to specifically target Rosacea, redness and other high-colour concerns. It’s a range designed to calm, soften and hydrate all skin types. Rosa Centifolia is actually the name of a Dutch…

Crème de la Mer The Treatment Lotion

You may have seen my review a little while ago of L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Lotion where I talked about an impending Korean import trending it’s way into our market over the next year. Crème de la Mer The Treatment Lotion is another product from a big player to bring this technology to market, a lotion that’s not…

La Roche-Posay Hydreane BB Creme SPF 20

In the year of the CC Cream, I believe the BB Cream is still king. BB creams are a guys best friend as they balance the skin-tone, brighten the complexion, hydrate and often treat the skin whilst giving us a daily dose of sun-protection (Hydreane BB Creme has a fab SPF 20). Hydreane is the…

L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Lotion

L’Occitane are at quite an exciting stage as a brand and over the last few years it has been incredible to watch them create hit, after hit, after hit. Since April, I’ve been using the freshly reformulated Immortelle Divine collection with the fabulous addition of the new Immortelle Divine Lotion – a post toner/pre-serum solution,…

Anthony Logistics Glycolic Facial Cleanser

This is actually Anthony Logistics’ top seller at Sephora for ten years running. It’s deliciously creamy, non-greasy, soothing, and very cleansing. Most readers and many followers on Twitter will know that I’m very pro-foaming face washe and very anti-cleansing oil/balm etc. I like the feeling of being clean, so I was naturally a little sceptical…

Dr. Jackson’s Natural Products

I’m in love. You all know by now that I’m not Mr. Natural, but you know something, I’ve been brought around by Dr. Jackson’s Natural Products, a fabulous new range being stocked over at Mankind, launching today with an armoury of great grooming goodies, all with potent, natural formulations. There’s no nasties, plenty of ethics,…

Neal’s Yard Remedies Men Revitalising Face Scrub

By now I’m sure you know what a fan I am of good, gentle, chemical exfoliation, but sometimes, you just can’t beat a good scrub. Neal’s Yard Remedies Men Revitalising Face Scrub is one of the best I’ve come across good few months; it’s pretty powerful. Now, you may also know that I’m very ‘anti’…

Ren Multi Tasking Aftershave Balm

With hundreds of aftershave balms out there, what is the point of reviewing another one? Ren Multi Tasking Aftershave Balm is something a little different and not your average bathroom cabinet resident. This is not an aftershave balm for those with oily or combination skin as it has a fairly rich, cream texture rather than…

LUSH Ocean Salt Facial Scrub

I continue to be more and more impressed by facial skincare from LUSH, a brand I only ever revered for bath and body care. After the sadly limited edition Buche de Noël Solid Cleanser from last Christmas and now this, I’m becoming a bit of a convert to say the least. I’ve said it once,…

L’Occitane Immortelle Brightening Collection

Over the last month, I’ve switched my entire skincare regime to the L’Occitane Immortelle Brightening collection. It’s always a big risk to change your skincare regime in one, big wallop as you never quite know how your skin is going to react, therefore I always recommend to gradually change 1 product at a time, but…
