Decleor Aroma White Creme Demaquillante Eclaircissante / Brightening Make-Off Cream

Advantages: It is effective
Disadvantages: It is costly

...The Aroma White Day Cream from Decleor is a great treatment cream for those with a darker skin tone. Its 'bright white' complex is designed to even out the skin tone and lighten dark patches whilst giving darker skin an added radiance. As many women of colour already known, brown skin has a greater degree of natural pigment, known as melanin. This pigment gives a higher degree of protection from the sun, gives a rich, deep colour and allows women to keep the youthful texture of their skin for a longer time. But the production of melanin can also have its drawbacks, and one major problem for Asian and African women is uneven skin tone due to the over-production of melanin, especially after the skin faces any type of trauma, however small. This is known as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It should be noted that dark marks caused... Read review

Advantages: Silky soft skin. Gentle aroma. Not harsh like gritty exfoliators can be
Disadvantages: A bit tricky to get the whole thing off (gets in hairline)

...I was slightly dubious about using this for the first time, because I thought exfoliating meant rubbing stuff resembling sandpaper over your skin, I didn't realise there were alternatives....

The Phytopeel I bought did not come in the container shown above (which... Read review

Advantages: leaves skin moisturized for long
Disadvantages: overpriced, overrated,no SPF

...between fingertips before tapping it on the face,but my fingers absorbed most of the cream!Does it mean I will have wrinkle-free finger tips?? The Creme de la Mer, ladies and gentlemen, DOES NOT contain a SPF, which means that, although I spent a fortune for this cream, I have to spend even more for another cream with SPF (and would I apply it before or after the Creme de la Mer?).This is not acceptable, everyone knows about the risks of skin cancer and if I pay a fortune for a face cream then it has to be perfect. That was the bad news.The good news, however, is that excellent creams DO exist. Instead of wasting money on a product that is mainly famous because VIP use it ( sure...Victoria Beckham looks like that because she uses Creme de la Mer, not because she has Botox injections, and Restylane fillings...) you'd better off investing your...
