Erborian

Erborian markets their Serum 17 as a gamechanger for the skincare routine, where they promise it will help improve skin texture, give a youthful glow, and reduce the visibility of fine lines and pores. It’s packed with super ingredients that are supposed to make your skin feel plump and smooth, almost like wearing an Instagram filter in real life. And yes, I can agree that it’s a really nice serum – especially if you like oil-based products. The serum is rich and moisturizing, which means that if you have dry skin, you probably don’t even need to use a moisturizer over it. It does the job itself, and your skin feels hydrated and “dewy” all night. But a heads up: this is not a serum you want to use during the day, especially not under makeup. The oil base makes it feel like your face is melting, and that’s not really the look we’re going for, right? Now for a little warning: if you’re thinking about putting a moisturizer on top of the serum, think again. I tried it and… breakouts. So yes, less is more here. Use the serum solo if you have sensitive skin or easily get breakouts – it seems to work best when it gets a little “space”. Summary: love the serum, but go without extra cream if you don’t want unwanted breakouts. And only use it in the evening, because you don’t want an oily shine in the middle of the day.

I have tried Erborian's Centella Cleansing Oil and have mixed feelings. First and foremost, the formula is really nice – it feels soft and pleasant on the skin and is easy to massage in. It’s not too runny and feels luxurious during use. Unfortunately, it doesn’t fully live up to expectations when it comes to removing makeup. It handles lighter makeup easily, but if you have a heavier foundation or waterproof mascara, it often requires a second cleansing or another product to get everything off properly. As for skin health, I haven’t noticed any significant difference after using it for a while – neither for the better nor for the worse. It’s gentle and doesn’t irritate the skin, but it also doesn’t provide any clear results. The packaging, however, gets a big plus! The pump works really well and it’s easy to dispense the right amount of product without mess or spill. In summary: A lovely cleansing oil with a nice feel and smart packaging, but it could be more effective as the first step in double cleansing.

I was impressed with this. It provides good coverage for redness and unevenness in the skin with a natural finish. Perfect for a «no makeup look»🥰 I have dry skin and this keeps the moisture and is economical in use, so even the small tube will last a while for me. The only thing that brings down the points for this is that the color doesn't match, and it gets a little too dark for me:( #lykomission
