Not a Vitamin C Serum
Cicamed Organic Science is both Swedish-made and organic, which I really like. However, I made the mistake of not reading the ingredient list carefully when I ordered this serum. Effective vitamin C serums should contain L-ascorbic acid as it is the one with proven effect. This one contains extracts that are significantly weaker and less reliable. That said, it’s not a bad serum. If it had been marketed as a moisturizing serum, I would have given it 4 stars, but I wanted a vitamin C serum and this is not it. The packaging is good since the pump bottle is hygienic, but it doesn’t last very long. For this price, there are both better and more economical vitamin C products. #cicamed1 product in post Not a Vitamin C Serum22 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A good eye cream
I have been assigned as #lykoinflutester to test this eye cream. I am 50+ with fairly nice skin, but right around the eyes, wrinkles have started to appear. The reason for the red spots and peeling skin around the mouth in the picture is that I had a TPRX treatment and diathermy the day before yesterday. 🙂 This is not a miracle cream, but it contains good, moisturizing ingredients that can keep dryness wrinkles in check. It contains hyaluronic acid, which is good for keeping the skin hydrated, oat extract that soothes and tightens the skin a bit, and avocado oil. Like the mask, it is very good for keeping the skin stable if you, for example, use acids in your skincare. The reason it doesn't get a better rating is that it contains perfume. That feels unnecessary and not optimal in an eye cream since the skin around the eyes is sensitive. Also, the packaging is quite boring. The main reason, however, is that when I read about the product, it says it contains squalane, but it is not listed in the ingredients. Maybe it's a mistake in the text since their moisturizing mask contains it, but it feels a bit sloppy. #coolderma1 product in post A good eye cream - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Mask that gives a lovely glow
I have been assigned as #lykoinflutester to test this moisturizing mask. My skin is 50+ and needs lots of moisture, so I was very skeptical about this mask the first time I tried it. The consistency is very thin and runny, and I am used to rich masks. It also absorbed quickly into the skin and didn’t need to be worked in like many other moisturizing masks. I went to bed and woke up the next day with super soft skin and a lovely glow! For me, it’s a big plus that you can sleep with it. I love masks that work overnight. It’s a perfect mask if, like me, you use an AHA mask a couple of times a week as well as retinol, since it contains lots of soothing and moisturizing ingredients like hyaluronic acid, squalane, avocado oil, oat extract, and glycerin. Many of these ingredients strengthen the skin barrier and are great together with acids and retinol, which can dry out the skin. The packaging might not feel super exciting, but that’s the only negative thing I have to say about this mask. #coolderma1 product in post Mask that gives a lovely glow - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A good cleanser
I have been assigned as a #lykoinflutester to test this cleansing gel. It really came at the right time since I was a bit bothered by the cleansing gel I had at home because it didn’t quite remove all the makeup. I think this one works well on my skin. It can feel a bit tight afterwards, but that happens with all cleansers, and I always apply serum and moisturizer right after, so it doesn’t bother me. It also removed all the makeup, which I really like. It has a mild and pleasant scent and a soft, slightly foaming texture. Extra points for being made in Sweden. The tube is a bit boring though, and the price is somewhat high, but it’s very economical, so that might balance out in the long run. If you’re looking for a good basic cleanser that removes all makeup, I can definitely recommend this one. #coolderma1 product in post A good cleanser61 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Get me ready for a day in the sun! But what I really want to know is what your absolute favorites in K-beauty are. My husband is going to Korea next week, and I’m thinking he should get a loooong shopping list from me. Help me stock up the bathroom cabinet! My skin: No major problems but 50+, so needs lots of moisture and preferably anti-age 😊💖🛁🫧4 products in the look Looking for K-beauty tips!- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Super good SPF
Had this on our winter trip to Sri Lanka. Used by the whole family and none of us got even a little red. It absorbs quickly into the skin and works great as a moisturizer. Often I find sunscreens to be clogging, but I don’t experience that with this one. The scent is very neutral which I appreciate since I find sunscreens often smell a bit funky. Since the tube is quite small, I was worried it would run out, but it’s incredibly economical so more than half the tube is still left. It also lasted a long time and rarely needed to be reapplied. I will definitely buy this again!1 product in post Super good SPF2251 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 3 monthsRating: 4 out of 5
Lovely moisturizing!
I was lucky enough to win this shower gel from Petal Fresh . I often get dry skin in the winter, so it has really been lovely to try this. ⭐️The scent is faintly floral, but nothing that takes over or smells after the shower. ⭐️I really appreciate that it’s a pump bottle so that just the right amount of product comes out. The packaging also looks nice in the shower. ⭐️It moisturizes surprisingly well. When you lather up with it, it feels neither creamy nor that nourishing, but it really is. I’ve hardly needed to moisturize afterward. ⭐️Organic and mostly natural ingredients. 💰The only reason it doesn’t get a full score is the price. Shower gel isn’t something I want to spend that much money on. But it is quite large (473 ml) and if you save on lotion (should be enough with this in the summer), it might be worth it. The pump bottle also makes it last since it doesn’t dispense too much product when used.1 product in post Lovely moisturizing!180 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Lovely cleansing
This cleanser from Cicamed is a transparent gel with a citrus scent. It feels very gentle, and I, who easily get dry and tight skin on my face, don’t experience that at all with this cleanser. My skin feels wonderfully clean afterwards. The only little downside that prevents it from getting a full score from me is that it’s not as effective as a makeup remover as I would wish. Most of the time, you have to cleanse an extra time around the eyes or use a bit of micellar water afterwards. #lykoreview1 product in post Lovely cleansing111 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Very sweet and fruity scent
I got to #lykoinflutester test this mist from #marianila. It's like a perfume for the hair, you could say. I, who never use perfume, still like the concept of this mist. It doesn't smell all the time, but you feel small bursts now and then. Perfect for those days when I haven't washed my hair, I think. I was positively surprised by how long the scent lasted. Not quite the whole day, but I would say that I could sometimes smell the scent for about 6 hours. There's nothing in the product that makes any difference to the hair itself, so you don't have to be afraid that it will weigh it down. The bottle is really pretty, I think, and it sprays out a perfectly fine mist. Unfortunately, I'm not particularly fond of the scent. I don't think it's floral at all, as the names Floral suggest, but rather fruity. I actually love fruity scents in hair products, but this one is so extremely sweet. It smells like when you walk past a teenager who is vaping. This one will go to my son's girlfriend. However, as I said, I like the concept and would definitely be willing to try the mist again if it comes in a different scent.1 product in post Very sweet and fruity scent430 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.
