Last Friday I had the pleasure to be invited to my friend's wedding and I said why not try some fancy, high end and very expensive skincare! And I did!
Thanks to this clever shop called Amazingy.com, based in Germany, I had the chance to order some samples of the most exclusive brands in organic skincare. For this occasion, I order another little jewel in this site: Winter Skin, from the brand Eco by Sonia. This is a self tan cream that creates a subtle tan and glow, all organic and easy to use. Perfect for my pale skin! I will create an in deep review for it!
Organic skincare has now a long history, but only recently, thanks to the awarness of some celebrities (take Gwineth Paltrow, for example, who is creating her own line now, Juice beauty), and the organic trend in food, has become more and more popular. Like all things, even in the beauty area we have the drugstore products and the high end, but do the expensive brands worth all the money? Or, like makeup, we can find dupes that are cheaper and even better than the more expensive ones?
I have now tried a lot of organic brands, low cost and luxe brands, and I think I can say something: they do worth the money. Of course, not all the products and not all the brands, but in average, mostly do their work better than low cost brands. Creating a formula is a very delicate process and it takes a lot of time (and money and prime ingredients) to reach perfection. That's why a luxe organic brand is very expensive but worths every penny. They will not be satisfied until the formula is exactely what they have in mind. And you can experiment that when you try something extra for your skincare. You immediately see the results. Non-organic skincare brands cost as the organic ones, but their focus is on the apperance of the skin, not in the health of the skin. So you can see immediate result, but no effective improvements on the skin (once you stop using them, you go back where you have started).
What did I notice using high end brands? What are my impressions?
Well, I have combination skin with large pores (that are my mainly problem). Even if I am already using organic skincare, I struggle with my pores a lot, they won't disappear or at least minimize a little.
Here's what I used from the Amazingy.com sample order:
The Pai Skincare Kukui and Jojoba Exfoliator is a must for brightening the skin. Stop!
It was the first time I was using Dr Alkaitis and I was truly surprised by this mask. At first I didn't notice it did something, but after some time I see my face very clear, calm, with no redness, pore were clear and minimized a little.
Mun Youth Serum gave me the most glowing skin ever, without looking greasy at all. And again, pores disappear under my eyes!
Suki Eye lift Renewal Cream is just the perfect eye cream, fine lines were gone!
I am truly amazed by what these products could do in a once use I can only imagine what they could do in a skincare routine.
So if you have to invest some money on skincare, do it! I swear you will not regret this decision!
Kisses,
Hyatt
