Review: Beauty Jar O, H2O Moisturizing Face Mask

 

Hi loves, hope you are doing well and staying safe this holiday season. Today's review is on affordable,  cruelty free and natural beauty brand. I have reviewed Beauty Jar product before on the blog and I do love the brand. I have been testing this mask out for months and it's their O, H2O Moisturizing Face Mask (100g).

The mask comes in a black plastic tub and it's a creamy mask. It contains 92% natural ingredients and is formulated with aloe juice and white tea extract. Aloe juice has amazing moisturizing properties and doesn't let the skin loose moisture.  And it fits all skin types. The white tea is rich with vitamin B, amino acids and caffeine. These help to tone and illuminate the skin. 

Ingredients: Aqua, Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter, Urea, Jojoba Seed Oil, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Almond Dulcis Oil, Glycerin, Stearic Acid, Cetearyl Alcohol, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, White Tea Leaf Extract, Sacha Inchi Seed Oil, Tocopheryl Acetate, Panthenol, Polysorbate-20, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Dehydroacetic Acid, Benzyl Alcohol, Citric Acid, Parfum, Butylphenyl Methylpropional.

I like to use it on the mornings and the first thing I noticed when I opened it up was the scent. It smells so good! It has a fresh sweet tropical vacation scent. I hope it makes sense, because I'm not the best at describing scents. I personally love how it smells and it's a great way to start my day. 

First step I wash my face with water to make sure it's clean. I dry my face and then I go in with the mask. As you can see form the picture on above, I apply generous amount of it. I leave it on for 10 minutes and then I wash it off with water. This mask leaves my skin feeling soft, hydrated and firmer. Down below you can see the before and after picture.

 

I'm so happy with this mask. It does what it says, it's affordable, doesn't contain colorants and has natural ingredients. if you are interested you can check out here. I need to pick up a new one soon.

Review: Aïcha Skin Calming Tea Tree Facial Toner

 

Hi loves, hope you are all doing well and staying safe! Today I have for you review on a brand I have been loving for years. I have been testing out Aïcha Skin Calming Tea Tree Facial Toner (200ml, 21.95 euros). I have tried most of their skincare and I have been loving everything so far.

The toner comes on a white plastic bottle with the brand's and the product's name on it. I also love the turquoise details on the bottle. It's so beautiful packaging and it always reminds me summer by the Mediterranean sea :)  

One of first things I noticed about this toner when I opened it, was the scent. It's with tea tree and it smells like it. I personally don't mind it, because I aways have liked the tea tree scent. I find it refreshing.

Why is this toner special? Because the ingredients are 100% natural and it helps to minimize the look of pores. It's ideal for blemish prone skin. The Tree Tree toner helps to remove impurities, sebum and dirt. 

Ingredients: tea tree water, witch hazel water, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, limonene

I don't know about you, but I like seeing short ingredient lists :)

My experience: I have been using this toner over a month now and I have combo skin type. I get brake outs very rarely and I use this toner in the mornings. I don't wash my face in the mornings and I use this toner as my morning cleanse. It cleanse all the dirt off and leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed :) It hasn't caused my skin any irritation or felt uncomfortable.

I'm so happy I picked this up and could try it out. I think its best for people with oily and combo skin type. I have only love for this product and I love the formula is vegan, cruelty free and is paraben and sulphate free. You can check out their skincare range here.

Which is your favorite toner?
