Fabulous Finds on Amazon Prime...Part 2!

In the latest skincare adventures of Mandy Snail, I have discovered a new product type. In my latest batch of items from the Amazon CrediThink store, I have found a totally new product to me. I also have a new favorite for the cold weather months and a new fighter against tret face. Lets get started!

I have received these three products from the CrediThink Amazon store in exchange for my honest review.

Isntree Clear Skin 8% AHA Essence


This was the product type that I had never heard of. An essence that is also an active-that was what intrigued me. I am used to an active that I apply with a cotton pad like a toner. An essence I pat on that is also a chemical exfoliant was something I had never seen before.

The essence itself was clear and was the consistency of water. The active essence is an 8% AHA  (half lactic acid and half glycolic acid) solution. The instructions say it is safe to use every night unless you have sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin it is recommended to use 2-3 times a week.

To use, pat on after washing your face and applying toner.

I really liked this product. Currently I use Curology with Tretinoin and Lotion P50-400, so my skin has been quite dry lately. I was afraid I would start peeling and burning if I added something else, so I proceeded with caution. It was actually pretty gentle. My skin was smooth and flake free the next morning.

HOWEVER, I have very tolerant skin. I do not recommend adding all of this to your face if you in any way have sensitive skin, or you are not well versed in chemical exfoliants. Patch test first.


Blossom Jeju 100% Pure Camellia Dry Oil


I can't imagine not being a fan of everything from the Blossom Jeju line. The smell is euphoric and amazing.

The Blossom Jeju 100% Pure Camellia Dry Oil is a light oil that is very moisturizing. The oil quickly absorbs into the skin and is a perfect addition to any regimen. It in no way left my skin feeling greasy. I added the oil just before my cream step. I give it a minute to absorb and seal it in with a good moisturizing cream.

This line is one of my luxury favorites for when I feel like I want to or need to treat myself. I have never been disappointed!





Miguhara Hyalucollagen Moisturizer


Speaking of a good moisturizing cream...The Miguhara Hyalucollagen Moisturizer surprised me. It is in a very unassuming jar that simply states its purpose without fancy graphics and glitter.

The product information claims the cream can provide 100 hours of moisture and is safe for use with sensitive skin. I am not sure how I could accurately test this, but I can tell you that this cream made my skin moisturized and soft in the face of my Curology/Tretinoin prescription. The cream was thick and had no scent, but absorbed well and did not leave my skin greasy. I am tempted to see if it can work magic on my elbows...
