Sunscreen - important info? ☀️
Yes, I know, we’re repeating ourselves, but it’s important! And yes, UV rays reach us all year round even if the sun doesn’t feel strong. UVB are the rays that burn us and are stronger during spring and summer, while UVA, which ages our skin, is always there and even penetrates through windows. How much sunscreen should you use? More than you think! I usually draw lines of product over the different parts of the face and then massage it in. And reapplying is important, especially if you’ve been sweating or swimming, but the protection still decreases gradually during the day due to things like touching, sebum, and friction. This year I’ve seen the tip to reapply over makeup using a powder puff! Otherwise, sticks are a good tip that are easy to carry, especially for oilier skin or the new mineral one without fragrance and denatured alcohol, which many with drier skin like. Which sunscreens are good? Yes, Evy Kids SPF 50 stands out among all I’ve tried (especially the blue ones 💙 which are “very water resistant”) and also have long shelf life in the packaging even after opening. But also Korean brands like Missha and Dr. Jart+ have lighter textures that sit well on the skin. I’ve used all of them myself for several years, also on my almost 9-year-old son (he’s also in my review I did many years ago of Evy Kids SPF 50 👦🏼 Feel free to check 👉🏻 lyko.com/en/community?items=9157cadd-53c0-40a5-96b7-9d60cff0a326) A tinted UV protection is a good alternative since it also protects against visible light. Feel free to check out Transparent Lab Mineral Tinted Sunscreen SPF 50 or Mellow Muses Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30. Foundation over sunscreen is an extra plus since they contain iron oxides. Questions? I’m happy to answer and share my experiences with sun protection.

A rich cream that smells heavenly of vanilla 🤍🍦
At first, I thought it could never be worth 499 kr. But just the bottle is really nice and feels a bit more exclusive, love the pump part. Easy to dose the right amount. 🩶 I have used the product for 3 weeks in my usual skincare routine as #lykotestpilot The cream feels rich, creamy, and buttery, but not sticky. Very moisturizing and plumps the skin in a pleasant way. Gives a nice glow immediately✨. For me, who often chooses lighter creams due to acne, it almost feels like a “forbidden fruit” to use 😅. It contains fats (but I think it absorbs well within about 10 minutes). 🧴 Was worried it would trigger my acne, so I introduced it in small amounts (1-2 pumps) about every other day. During the test, I got a few extra small pimples that might be due to the cream, but I’m not 100% sure (need to test longer). 🔴 Together with Emma S. Hyaluronic Essence, I got irritation (probably due to the combination of fragrance ingredients). But with my usual fragrance-free skincare, I haven’t experienced any irritation. 🤍 I completely fell in love with the SCENT and sometimes want to apply more because of it (have to resist😅). Soft, skin-close, warm. Think vanilla ice cream with a little soft white flower, in a balanced way. But powerful, smells for over an hour on the hand (good to know if you’re sensitive). But nice and cozy.🍦🤍 Skin type: 34 years old, acne-prone and combination: surface dry + a bit oily T-zone during the day. Has fine lines. Can sometimes be a bit sensitive, especially to strong scents on the face (but this time it was fine). A bit high price and maybe I get a little clogged, but the cream feels luxurious – love the scent, texture, and glow. ✨ Rating: 🍦🍦🍦🍦 (will lower to 3 if I find out it causes pimples) ➕ Exclusive scent (strongly perfumed, but soft scent) ➕ Rich and soft texture ➕ Visible glow immediately ✨ ➕ Works well with makeup ➖ Possibly a bit clogging ➖ A bit expensive #emmas #hudvård #skincare #ansiktskräm #spf #lykoreview #lykomission #lykocreator1 product in post A rich cream that smells heavenly of vanilla 🤍🍦102 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A bit of a prickly “shampoo-soap scent” 🧼
As a #lykotestpilot, I unfortunately haven’t been able to use this very often due to the scent and some irritation. The product contains several fragrance ingredients, and the first thing I reacted to was the scent itself. I find it a bit prickly, sharp, and unpleasant. Unexpectedly “soapy,” with a bit of a cleansing scent, like shampoo/soap, but also somewhat floral and perfumed at the same time. It can be described as fresh, but unfortunately not a favorite in an essence I want to apply generously. (As a preference, I also dislike the scent in the Hyal-Reyouth toner from Dr Ceuracle for the same reason). 🧼🙅🏻♀️ I probably expected a softer floral scent or maybe more plum-like (since the bottle is pink and has “plum extract”) 🌸💜 Application: I have used it as a toner. The consistency is like a mix between toner and serum. A “slippery” feeling at first, reminded me a bit of the Snail Mucin Essence I recently tried – but more watery and not “stringy.” Sticky for the first minute, but dries quickly (about 5 minutes). Since I like to apply several layers of my toner/essence, I tried two layers – very moisture-saturated skin then, almost like the skin gets a moisture-binding “film.” 💧 When I apply my serums over it, I get a more moisture-saturated and humectant-heavy feeling faster than usual. (Usually, I love the plumping effect from hyaluronic acid in serums and can apply generously, but didn’t quite get the same feeling here 💧) Irritation: The scent lingers for a long time, at least 30 minutes. Together with the “Revitalising Day Cream,” it was way too many fragrance ingredients for me, and my skin became red, irritated, and itchy (especially where I had active acne). I also experience some irritation from this essence alone. 🔴 Skin type: 34 years old, combination: surface dry + a bit oily T-zone during the day. Have acne. And fine lines that I like to plump. Can sometimes be a bit sensitive, especially to strong scents on the face. I will not continue using the product. Rating: 🧼🧼 ➕ Very moisture-binding / hydrating ➕ Even and smooth skin feel ➖ Not the same impressive plump as hyaluronic acid serums ➖ Can give a bit of an over-saturated/“film feeling” with multiple layers of skincare ➖ The perfume (a bit prickly) ➖ Some irritation on my skin #emmas #hudvård #skincare #lykoreview #lykomission1 product in post A bit of a prickly “shampoo-soap scent” 🧼97 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Take care of your skin ❤️
It's been a while since I posted a video, but so much has happened lately. I'm slowly coming back & if you've seen my haul, there will also be some reviews coming up. As I say in the video, we're going to Stockholm on Saturday & my skin isn't feeling so great, so I'm letting it be free from makeup until then (this video is about 1 week old, had trouble uploading) These sponges from Lyko I think are good so far & fun to try a new lip balm with a bit of color since I've only used Lypsyl before 😇🙌 #lykocreator #hudvård5 products in the look Take care of your skin ❤️826 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A nice gel-to-cream cleanser 🥒
Of the 3 products I've tested as #lykotestpilot for #emmas, I like this one best. It's one of the gentler gel cleansers I've tried, but you still feel clean and fresh from it 😊 I like that it has gentle cleansing agents, moisturizing ingredients, and a fun touch with cucumber extract. 🥒 A simple aesthetic bottle with a screw cap (would be more convenient with a flip cap, but at the same time, screw caps can reduce leakage and mess). 🤍 A slightly thicker transparent gel, but combined with water it becomes a bit creamier and white. Can be foamed up a little, but I think it feels mostly creamy. 🧴 Completely fragrance-free but smells slightly earthy/maybe cucumber, something natural but fresh. I've tested cleansing both with and without makeup. I don't feel it removes absolutely all makeup on its own – I get some foundation residue left on a cotton pad. But it's water-based, so I didn't really expect otherwise. My experience is that oil/wax-based products often dissolve makeup best. But very nice as a step-2 cleanser or when you haven't worn makeup. 🫧 About me: 34 years old, combination and surface dry with a slightly oily T-zone. I find the product suits me very well. No uncomfortable tightness/drying or stinging, but I don't notice extra moisture (I don't expect that from a cleanser), however, I feel balanced and fresh ☺️ I'd say it ranks in my top 3 cleansers I've tested (did a cleansing test last year – background image on my profile) 🫧 I can definitely imagine buying it! 👌 Rating: 🥒🥒🥒🥒 ➕ Gentle / not drying ➕ Effective step-2 cleansing ➕ Fragrance-free (slightly fresh natural scent) ➕ Good value ➖ Don't think it removes all makeup alone according to description #hudvård #skincare #lykoreview #lykomission #lykocreator1 product in post A nice gel-to-cream cleanser 🥒113 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Deeply cleanses and moisturizes at the same time ✨
I was truly fascinated by La Bruket 276 & 277. I love oils in general, and the idea of a cleansing oil feels so much gentler on the skin while deeply cleansing without clogging. The Cleansing Oil melts, yes MELTS, away makeup, SPF, and impurities so easily, and the skin feels soft, calm, and moisturized afterward – never tight. Then I follow up with Mild Cleansing Gel 277 for that clean, fresh feeling. A routine like this feels both effective and luxurious every evening 🤍 L:a Bruket #cleansingroutine ✨ #glowingskin #labruket #skincareroutine #cleanbeauty #doublecleanse #hudvård #glowroutine #selfcare #skincareobsessed #scandibeauty #lyxighudvård #oilcleanser #sensitiveskin #eveningroutine2 products in post Deeply cleanses and moisturizes at the same time ✨100 views- The comment was made 1 weekI didn’t expect that from La bruket.

Kocostar Eye Patches
If you have sensitive skin and react to most things, but also have tired eyes that need a little extra love, then these might be something for you. I use eye patches regularly every other day, these are always my go-to’s. Whether they actually moisturize in the long run is a good question, but they definitely give a lovely cooling sensation and a beautiful glow! Tip: Use these also on the corners of your mouth and between your eyebrows 🤭 #lykoreview #kbeauty #skincare #hudvård1 product in post Kocostar Eye Patches53 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Love this!!
Moisturizing and absorbs quickly into the skin without feeling sticky. I feel like my skin has gained a new glow and the skin became softer and more “plumped” already after a few days of use. It works well both morning and evening and is especially good under a day cream or makeup. A big plus is that it feels light but still effective, perfect for all skin types, especially if you are dry or lacking moisture. #lykotestpilot #testpilot #skincare #glowyskin #emmas #hudvård1 product in post Love this!!111 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Emma S. Revitalising Day Cream (SPF 20)
A light day cream that moisturizes well while providing protection with SPF 20 – perfect for everyday use. The cream absorbs nicely into the skin and leaves a soft, hydrated feeling without being greasy. I noticed that my skin looked more even and refreshed after use. A good option if you want both moisture and some sun protection in one step. #lykotestpilot #testpilot #skincare #glowyskin #emmas #hudvård1 product in post Emma S.
