Mysterious and strange unisex that develops warm feminine π«πͺ»β¨
I got to try this exciting perfume from Gucci, which #lykotestpilot for #gucci π€π. And I hope it will be the starting point for sharing more here again π« EXPECTATIONS: My expectations were exclusive, dark, and warm feminine. With deep gourmand notes of mainly coffee and cocoa, a bit of spiciness from tonka bean, and to feel β the for me unknown flower β wisteria βοΈπ«πͺ» (However, I had missed that amaretto, which is also included, has almond notes). PACKAGING: βοΈ The bottle feels premium and luxurious β beautiful design with weight in it. The cap also has weight (initially hard to open, you have to put some effort in! π ). SCENT: ββοΈπ« What surprises me at the first spray is that I don't smell coffee and cocoa so clearly β but it lies in the background and comes out more after a while. Amaretto/almond is harder for me to detect. π I think it smells more like some dark, ripe/dried fruit. Think similar to raisins/plums/figs, which get an adult fullness when dried. Maybe itβs also similar to how a cocoa bean smells in its fruit? π« I like dark fruit β it was just unexpected. πͺ» I also sense some spiciness and can detect a creamy soft flower. The whole perfume gives an interesting scent I have never felt before π΅π»ββοΈ FEMININE / MASCULINE: Feminine? Yes, but starts unisex in my opinion. Powerful, dark, and mature fruity, but soft and not sharp. After a few hours, it becomes even softer: warm, deep, slightly vanilla, spicy, skin-close in a more feminine way π¨ (not heavy or too sweet vanilla) MY BACKGROUND IN SCENT: 30+ who has had a signature perfume for about 10 years π . Typical clean-girl notes (light, fresh, citrus, fruit, a bit of flower ππΈ). But I have recently been drawn to slightly warmer, feminine scents. Therefore, it felt exciting to try this! Looking for a perfume with that feminine confidence βοΈ. Maybe this perfume has a bit TOO much confidence for me right now, but I still like it! Looking forward to trying it at a dinner/event and seeing how it feels then β¨ SUMMARY: β’ Dark and mysterious β’ Unexpected β’ Starts adult fruity (with coffee/cocoa/spicy in the background, soft flower) β’ Softer at the end (warm/slightly vanilla) β’ Unisex - develops more feminine β’ Adult (not typically young or older) β’ Evening scent π #lykomission #lykoreview #parfym1 product in post Mysterious and strange unisex that develops warm feminine π«πͺ»β¨297 views - The post was made 1 month

New formula?
Hey! Has the formula changed in the last year? According to reviews here, it doesn't seem to dry out like it did when I tested it a year ago and got dried out (it contained alcohol back then). Is it less drying now? βΊοΈ1 product in post New formula?661 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 2 monthsHey Veronica!ππ₯° Yes, the Beplain Mung Bean Cleansing Foam has been updated to a pH-Balanced version. It is milder, soothing, and a bit less sticky than before, but still cleanses gently ππ©· All the best!1 likes

Perfect
When you buy a product, you know it's a favorite! π€ Skin type: Combination It melts away all kinds of makeup and dissolves oil/skin residue night after night. Easy to wash off and leaves the skin clean and soft. βοΈβοΈβοΈ (I always use a little water-based cleanser as step 2 anyway, to be sure the oil/wax is rinsed away). No longer need to look for a step 1 cleanser, this one is perfect π β - Effective - Gentle (e.g. fragrance-free) - Smart packaging (with a spoon that can be stored hygienically in the jar's lid if you leave the plastic part on) - Affordable, lasts a long time β - Nothing #lykoreview #lykosocial1 product in post Perfect3680 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Holy grail β¨πβ¨
Finally, my absolute favorite serum was in stock again, so I thought it was time for a little review. This has really been a fantastic moisturizing serum for my skin, with glycerin and centellaπ§π§ I didn't realize how good it was until I was without it for a while. And we (me and my skinπ ) have missed it! I noticed that my skin became more unbalanced in its absence - maybe it has been a bit soothing? It definitely provides good moisture, is fragrance-free, and my slightly acne-prone skin tolerates the ingredients well. I also find the design of the bottle quite lovely - like a little piece of art in itself πΌοΈ A holy grail I can recommend π #lykoreview1 product in post Holy grail β¨πβ¨ - The post was made 1 yearRating: 5 out of 5
Wonderful toner!
I've been using this toner for a few weeks now and thought I had found a new favorite, but unfortunately it seems to have just been discontinued :( π I really liked the feel of this, thin but still properly moisturizing without clogging. Two to three layers of this and I don't even need a moisturizer on top. I also think you get a bit of glow from it. Maybe from the fermentation/lactic acid? My winter-dry skin loved this, so I'm hoping to find a similar milky toner π1 product in post Wonderful toner!474 views - The post was made 1 years
A little exciting skincare to be tested βΊοΈπ§πΎπ₯£
All are free from drying alcohol or strong perfumes π€ β’ Oat-in Silky Toner from Purito. Oats are a bit soothing and have a nice scent, so this must be a hit!? π₯£ β’ Abib - Rice Probiotics Overnight Mask, a barrier jelly with lactobacillus and fermented rice. Seems to also be fungal acne safe for those interested in that β¨ β’ Round Lab - Water Gel sheetmask, packed with hyaluronic acid. I love that ingredient and have experience that it often works well in sheetmasks!π§π§π§ #lykosocial3 products in post A little exciting skincare to be tested βΊοΈπ§πΎπ₯£995 views- The comment was made 1 yearπ I haven't tried the sheet masks yet, but the other two have been tested for a few weeks and I really like them! The toner seems to be discontinued unfortunately :( But it is very moisturizing and feels mildly exfoliating (stings a little). The mask in the jar (Abib Rice) I think helps to "lock in" the moisture the most. It is quite "sticky" to sleep with, lays like a film :) I haven't noticed any bad reactions or clogged pores yet, feels mild π A bit pricey though, I think for example Pyunkang Yul Moisture Ampoule might have a similar effect!1 likes

A bit unnatural scent
I have now tested this mousse a few showers and must say that it was a disappointment. Hoped for a gourmand feast of vanilla/coconut and that the scent would have some similarities with Cocoa Self-Tanning Mousse, which is really a gourmand! π«π₯₯πͺ I can't smell either vanilla or coconut, at least not natural scents of them. Maybe it's the jasmine that takes over. But I usually like jasmine and think nothing was natural about this scent, neither fresh nor good. The consistency is like shaving foam - a thick cream that grows into a big fluffy foam. The fluff feels soft and smooth, a bit like cream. β that the skin feels moisturized β that at least I didn't feel really clean from this! β that the scent was neither good nor fresh β that it smells quite weak (actually a plus here that the scent disappears) #lykoreview1 product in post A bit unnatural scent4494 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Mild and Barrier-Strengthening
I love this cream! I have tested it together with Milky Cleansing from the same series - gold in winter! π₯£πΎ Both have a lightly mild oat scent, a very cozy smell :) I myself have a slightly sensitive, mildly acne-prone, and combination skin type that can also get a bit winter-dry. I have used this cream in the evening over active products (acids, retinals, and also c). No new clogging or reactions despite being a bit worried about e.g. soy (though far down the ingredient list). Moisturizing and absorbs well. I have nothing negative to say, highly recommended! #lykoreview1 product in post Mild and Barrier-Strengthening1429 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

How high % niacinamide and zinc?
Hi, can you see how much niacinamide or zinc this contains in percentage? βΊοΈ1 product in post How high % niacinamide and zinc?327 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 1 yearsHey Veronica! ππ Cosrx has not specified the exact percentage of niacinamide and zinc in the Low pH Niacinamide Micellar Cleansing Water. Generally, similar products contain a relatively low concentration of these ingredients, as micellar water is primarily used for gentle cleansing rather than active treatment of the skin. However, I have of course taken the question to the supplier and will get back to you as soon as I have a bit more information π€ Take care! π2 likes
