Hello Lovelies,
Welcome back! And welcome if You are new here xoxo
Happy New Year! Please allow me to present the Best Of 2022, let’s start with skincare.
*Disclaimer. These products were well and throughout tested by me, willing hooman bunny. Some of them will be repeats from years and years ago, apart from testing/ judging for Clean Beauty Awards, I made sure I do not test too many new products last year. My uber sensitive and dermatitis prone skin was all the happier for it. There's my skin for the reference, plus keep in mind that I am in my 40s, so technically classed as mature too. Many if not all products will have reviews or mentions in my Favourites posts, but I will not link them (too many links hurt the blog), please hit the search button on the right if You are after more information. Some affiliate links will be featured, but not all. If I am loving the product, I will link to the brand for free, I am not all about that sponsored life.

Despite it having “cream” in the name, it is more of a solid balm to me. You rub a solid cube on Your face and it melts into oily consistency on Your skin. It is a great product for my dry skin, my skin just laps it up.
Serum (water/ aloe based)
I have to say I only consider a product to be a serum if it is water/ aloe based & has a watery consistency. Some brands add essential oils and extracts to oils and call it a serum, but for me it is not a serum, it is a face oil still.
