I’ve had these @beautypie skincare products in my collection for so long now and I’m determined to finish them this year 💪

Tbh these aren’t products I would choose to use on a daily basis, but 2025 is all about using things up - they can’t hang around on my skincare shelf forever!

Triple Hyaluronic Acid & Lipopeptide Serum 🌸
I like the texture of this serum - it’s super light and gel-like - but it’s just SO sticky. It almost feels like I’ve applied an ultra-grip primer all over my face and I’m not really a fan of this kind of finish. It also pills quite a bit when I layer other skincare/makeup products over the top.

Superactive Capsules Essential Ceramides + 🎀
These are fun to use but I’m not convinced they’ve done much for my skin. The serum inside the capsules is mostly made up of silicones and emollients, so while it does make my skin feel nice and soft while it’s on, it’s also quite greasy to the touch.

Japanfusion™ Genius Lift Elixir 🌷
Like the Superactive Capsules, this elixir has quite a greasy finish. It’s weird because it feels like water when I apply it, but it gets oilier the more I rub it in. I do think this has a lot of potential, it just doesn’t work for my skin type unfortunately.

I know I’ve been quite critical here but I do want to say that I actually quite like Beauty Pie’s makeup offering, it’s just the skincare that doesn’t really do it for me!!

Have you tried anything from Beauty Pie? What are your thoughts?

How cute is this heart themed set from @wildrefill. And it arrived just in time for Valentine’s Day too!! 🥰❤️

The new Love Potion scent smells so good. This might just be my fave one yet!

Another round of beauty empties!!

🫶 = Would repurchase
👋 = Wouldn’t repurchase

@skinproud Secure the Barrier Moisturiser* 🫶
Skin Proud seems to have vanished off the face of the earth and I’m actually devastated! This is my favourite moisturiser; it’s really rich but still feels light and breathable on the skin. It’s also unscented and alcohol-free so it’s extremely gentle. I’d 100% repurchase if it was possible - I was about to restock when I noticed the website was gone!

@wildrefill Refillable Shampoo & Conditioner 👋
This is a nice daily duo, the shampoo cleanses well and the conditioner doesn’t coat the hair or weigh it down. But it’s not the most moisturising set and my hair often tangles after using it. I love that this is a sustainable option but, if your hair is dry like mine is, you’ll probably need something more reparative.

@caudalie Vinoperfect Radiance Serum* 🫶
A nice hydrating serum which, with continued use, really does help fade dark spots. It is quite expensive though, so I won’t be repurchasing right away!

@byoma Creamy Jelly Cleanser 🫶
I haven’t featured this very much on my page but it’s actually a cleanser I reach for a lot! Byoma does affordable skincare well and this is a gel cleanser I think all skin types will enjoy.

@anua_global Heartleaf Cleansing Oil* 🫶
This removes makeup really easily, no rough scrubbing involved! It also rinses off well and doesn’t leave a residue. I’m not convinced that it draws out blackheads though - at least I haven’t experienced that!

@cocoandeve Youth Revive Pro Youth Shampoo & Conditioner 🫶
My hair’s balayaged so, without the right products, the ends can feel a bit dry and damaged. This set makes my hair feel so soft and shiny. It’s great for scalp health too - really recommend!

@herbivorebotanicals Pink Cloud Creamy Jelly Cleanser 🫶
I like this cleanser - it’s gentle and low-foaming so it’s a perfect pick for sensitive skin. It doesn’t really have the ‘wow factor’ but it’s great if you’re looking for something no-frills that does the job.

A selection of @elemis_uki goodies, some of which I’ve already used and loved, some of which are completely new to me ✨

The Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm doesn’t need an introduction - it’s a bestseller for a reason! This balm is super soft and buttery, melting into the skin with very little effort at all. It’s scented (fragrance generally isn’t a dealbreaker for me with wash-off products) but still very gentle, and does a really great job of removing makeup.

The Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads are a quick and convenient way to exfoliate. The pads aren’t too abrasive so they don’t sensitise the skin, and they really do help smooth out texture.

The Superfood Facial Oil is probably one of the lightest face oils I’ve tried. It’s almost water-like in texture, but still very moisturising. This is packed with essential oils though, so may not be the best for sensitive skin.

If you’re interested in trying any of these, use code ELEMIS3853 for 20% off.

It wouldn’t be a #selfcareday without a bit of @espaskincare. Very grateful for these goodies that were sent over, the Isotonic Hydration Mask and Hydra Gel Eye Masks are perfect for an end-of-week refresh 💧
