Even though I really like something, it’s extremely fun for me to try
something new, to make a change. And so when I ran out of my beloved face toner
from Ziaja I decided to try another one. I choose Clean phase toner from ˝our˝ (I mean Slovenian) brand Afrodita for normal to oily skin. It
contains hyaluronic acid and lemon extract. It smells fresh and cream like if
you know what I mean. I think it cleans very well, but it’s doesn’t leave that
tightening feeling or dry skin, so it’s gentle enough. Of course you need to
moisturize afterwards or whatever your next step is. It is very affordable,
somewhere from 3 to 4€. In our country is sold almost everywhere, from bigger
drugstores to small local supermarkets. The packaging is basic, but appealing.
The most important thing is that it doesn’t leak like some other bottles do. I
had very bad experience with Garnier.
For softer cleaning or removing light makeup I currently use rose water
from Melvita. This is actually a
face mist, but I never use it for that purpose. I think that just looks silly –
I’m sorry if you like spraying face mists. I must admit that my first intention
was to try famous beauty elixir from Caudalie, but they didn’t have it in the
store. Sadly that elixir was something from the section ˝Youtube made me buy
it˝.
This was my impulsive buy, but I never regretted it, because I like the
product. The only thing I was concerned about was the smell. Lavender can
sometimes smell so good and pleasant, but sometimes more like something you
would put only in your bathroom. Luckily this lavender is very good one, it
smell exactly like the Teekanne ˝Sweet dreams˝ tea, which I love. It is gentle
and doesn’t irritate my eyes, so I use it also as eye makeup remover, usually
after cleaning with a bit stronger cleanser to calm down the skin. I would use
it for ˝mid˝ cleaning or refreshing during hot summer days. I doubt in
beneficial ingredients of water and it’s not cheap either, so I’m not sure I’ll
repurchase it. The packaging is practical and inviting.
Who can resist this cute little panda? I couldn’t either. Tonymoly’s Panda's dream so cool eye stick has the
sweetest packaging ever. This is cooling stick for tired and dry eyes. I
thought it would be perfect for me, since I’m staring for the whole day at my
screen and have dry eyes. I have mixed feelings about it. It is cooling, but
not strongly. Also it’s not a very good as moisturizer. But it has a quite
strong tightening effect which I like. I don’t know if it is just my
imagination or if it truly makes my fine lines less visible. The application is
very pleasant, as I said a bit cooling and refreshing. Product is just slightly
sticky and has fresh, men’s deodorant type of smell. I haven’t tried this yet, but I doubt it would be a good
base for my under eye concelear. I assume it would make some kind of dry
patches. What else can I say? Oh yes, it doesn’t irritate my eyes – a miracle.
For now, I’m using it just on the afternoons when I’m working on my computer at
home or reading. If it turns out to be a good primer for eyeshadows or
concelear, I’ll definitely let you know.
