About

Hi!

Every review on this site is written after I've used the product by myself, usually for at least four to six weeks. Nothing here is sponsored, gifted or paid from a brand, and I buy everything with my own money. If that ever changes, I'll say so at the top of the review.

How I rate products

I score out of 5, in half stars:

• 5 — I've already repurchased it.
• 4 — Very good. Small caveats, but I'd recommend it.
• 3 — Fine. Does the job, nothing special.
• 2 — Disappointing for the price or the promise.
• 1 — I stopped using it.

A rating only means something next to a skin type, so I tag every review with the skin types I think it suits. Mine reacts the way it reacts — yours might not.

A note

I'm not a dermatologist or an esthetician. These are personal impressions, not medical advice. If something on your skin is painful, spreading or not improving, please see a professional.
