SK II LXP Moist Softening Serum

Dermalogica Active Moist

Advantages: Really hydrating, great base for make up, lasts ages
Disadvantages: Cost

Dermalogica active moist is a moisturiser best used on skin with excess oil production. It is a light weight oil free lotion for daily us that combats dehydration. It is sheer, easy to apply and sinks in to the skin without a trace leaving it feelin really moisturised. It contains silk amino acids and plant extracts to help smooth skin and improve its texture. It also contains lemon, burdock and cucumber to help refine the skin.

They then say for best results this should be used after the facewash and multi active toner and moisturiser (please see my other reviews).

Review of Dermalogica Active Moist

serum

Advantages: great serum lasts a long time
Disadvantages: n/a

This is the best product I have tried for frizzy hair and the only one I buy again and again, it's a really great product, I love majority of all tigi hair products, this is by far the best for keeping my course and curly hair straight or non frizz.

Review of TIGI Bed Head Control Freak Serum

Why Is It Called Serum?

Advantages: Relatively inexpensive, does smooth and moisturise skin.
Disadvantages: Spots! Chemical smell.

The BBC programme "Horizon" has a lot to answer for. Earlier this year it broadcast an investigation into the anti-aging properties of a variety of creams and potions, and * shock horror * announced that one of the products it tested actually seemed to work. That product was Boots No 7 Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum. Cue women flocking to Boots in their thousands. Except me. I have always been very sceptical about the anti-aging claims made by beauty products, and even though "Horizon" is generally considered a serious, ethical programme, I wasn't struck by its findings. I continued happily with the Sanctuary moisturiser that I had been using for years. Until two things happened. My two sisters in laws, both older than me (in their forties and fifties respectively) started using it. The older one lives in a hot country and she ...
