Treatments -Avene - Diacneal Acne Treatment [DISCONTINUED]
isabellaz 2/8/2011 1:16:00 PM
Have been using this for about a week now. For me it does work, although I don't really have any "real" acne problems, just pimples every now and then. I never used this on the entire face, only on my forehead and chin. And does get worse before it gets better. It wasn't any outrageous break outs but I did use headbands a lot during these days. Here in Finland it costs 20€, but since I don't use it all over the face it will probably last a long time. Just a tip, if you're scared of the purging period use the cream on one area at a time, just as a safety precaution. And I actually took a photo of my skin before I started using Diacneal so that I have something to compare it too. Do this and you will definitely know if there is any impovement or not.

Will definitely keep buying this lipstick. I'm using 550 Cherry Candy, which is a red lipstick. It's shiny and the best thing is that you don't a mirror when you put on more during the day. Doesn't feel like you're wearing a lipstick even. And it's quite cheap aswell (about 7-8€)

Skincare - Face -Avene - Thermal Water

It is just water, to be honest. So there won't be any magic, but it does calm the skin down. I use it as a toner in the morning and after moisturizer (from Avène aswell) my make up actually looks a lot better after a long day. Since it's quite cheap (10€ in Finland), you won't feel ripped off if you don't like it.

Moisturizers -Avene - skin recovery cream (US name: cream for intolerant skin)

Definitely worth the money!! Here in Finland it costs about 20€ and you can buy it in every hemist's/pharmacy. Bought because my skin became so very dry this winter. I've tried a lot of different creams but nothing really helped. I actually noticed a difference after just one day! Then my skin seemed to got worse for about two days, and thought to myself that is was a waste of money. But then it got a lot better!! It's like the cream exfoliated the skin. I will definitely repurchase this. Should mention that I'm using the Rich-version of this (Rich Skin Recovery Cream).

Liquid -Maybelline - Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Foundation ] ] [DISCONTINUED]

This is the first foundation I will actually repurchase. It's easy to put on (I use my fingers, but you can easliy use a brush aswell). Covers quite good and blends in with my skin tone. Doesn't make me break out, and it works very well to use on my dry skin. The skin looks very good, glowy and "moist" afterwards. This has actually been so good and because it's mineral, I'm actually scared to try some other foundation that's not =)
