Silicones?
Hello! I read your article about silicones, very interesting and good article! đ I can't find any of the silicones you mention there. But I still want to ask if there are silicones in this one? Thanks for being so awesome! đž1 product in post Silicones?110 views- The comment was made 2 weeksMaria: All softening ingredients can cause buildup, not just silicones. However, I have never heard that sulfates themselves would cause buildup... that sounds a bit contradictory since they are cleansing surfactants that remove dirt. Sodium laureth sulfate is mild and safe, and those who say it isnât are the "clean beauty" industry trying to sell their inferior products. There are also, as Linnea says, deep-cleansing shampoos that you can use now and then.

Curious
Hello! I got a bit curious about the Plex products. Are there silicones, SLS, or proteins in the series?1 product in post Curious155 views- The comment was made 2 weeksThis fear of sulfates and silicones has to disappear sometime. It's nothing harmful...

Curly Hair
Hello! I have tried moist and think it has been great for my hair, and I can see itâs starting to get better because the curls have come out more. But I still have problems with my hair looking frizzy/damaged. (Even though itâs freshly cut). So now Iâm thinking about trying this but wonder if itâs for curly hair? I also lose a lot of hair so it has become thin.1 product in post Curly Hair - The post was made 6 months
Retinol summer...
Hey! I use this in my skincare routine, but I read that many say you shouldn't use retinol in the summer. I thought it was okay if you use it in the evening and have sunscreen during the day? Then I'm wondering if that's the case, I was thinking of using something else and am looking into GF solution or multi peptide + HA. Is that a good swap and which is smarter if you want anti-aging and a more even skin tone? Thanks for being here so we can ask. đ1 product in post Retinol summer...1717 views- The user's roll: Skin therapist at Lyko. The comment was made 6 monthsHi Maria đ You can absolutely use retinoids year-round if your skin is used to it and you use UV protection â itâs not a problem in the summer, but itâs more about being extra careful with the sun so you especially donât get sunburned (which triggers pigmentation and you have to pause all active products). And if you want to counteract pigmentation as you wish, the most important thing is to stay completely away from the sun - with a big sun hat đ If you still want to pause, peptides (Multi-Peptide) are good for elasticity and lines, but they donât affect skin tone that much. GF Solution works more on skin quality and repair, but itâs also not so targeted towards pigment. If you want something that works both anti-aging and gives a more even skin tone, I would invest in, for example, a serum with vitamin C. They also have a really good serum specifically for pigmentation that contains Alpha arbutin. Good luck đ€4 likes

Hyperpigmentation.
I wonder if this is good for lightening hyperpigmentation? Or if you can recommend another product that is still cheap. Thanks in advance! đ1 product in post Hyperpigmentation. - The post was made 1 years
