WATSONS REVIEW 07/21

Remember I promised to give a review of the products once I started using them? Well, here it is! :)

First, starting with the Evans Diamond Tomato, I had hoped that it would clear my acne and give me dewy, bouncy, skin. Well, my skin was more moisturised after using it, but extremely sadly, unlike its mask, it did not clear my acne, or even alleviate it. My skin appeared just as red and bumpy as ever. Probably with a tiny bit of difference. But like mentioned, I did notice that my skin was more moisturised and ever so slightly bouncier after using it.

I do love the spritz though. Spritz spritz spritz, three times on my forehead, and each on my cheeks, then spreading it all over my face. Gives that light-weight serum feeling which I love.

Recently, my skin care routine has developed, and it has become a self-care of sorts to me. And this toner is only the beginning. More on that another time ;)

But if only it was as dermalogically-effective as it is fun to use :'(

Anyway, moving on to the second, Eau Thermale Avene MAT toner, well, this has been a staple in my cupboard since a year ago. I love the matte texture it gives, hence the name MAT ;) geddit? geddit? hehe I'm pretty sure they didn't name it after my feeling LOL. but still. Anyway, it also refreshes my face and gives it the much needed moisture after a deep cleansing. And furthermore, it acts as a great primer for me to layer my skincare on top.

Nothing but praises for this must-have staple.

Finally, on to the last, Eau Thermale Avene B-Protect Sunscreen, this product was disappointing to say the least.

Maybe I had too high expectations.

I was looking for a sunscreen that was non-comedogenic, anti-pollution, and protects from sun pollution. I thought I had found it in Eau Thermale Avene. But somehow, the protection from UVB-UVA rays that this sunscreen totes is just not enough for me.

Still on my search for the holy grail then.

Also, I'm used to Japanese sunscreens which leaves a very watery, dewy finish, and does not leave a residue on your skin. However this sunscreen is a bit too much like bb cream for my taste, and is too thick, leaving a tinted residue on the face, and a beige residue when wiped with a tissue. That, I don't like.

Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with the quality of the products (Watson always delivers), but its effects on my skin could be better.

And that's all for today! Catch you next time! :) ;)
