Hippie girl, going through recovery, and life. Follow my journey of Spiritual growth and health.

Another trip to Primark had me hunting the shelves down, to either possibly re buy the Vitamin C serum or Hyaluronic acid serum, as these two so far have been the favourites.

£3.50 for 25ml I find it on par with my The Ordinary Niacinamide which is £5.00 for 30ml

Niacinamide is a water-soluble form of vitamin B, renowned for its brilliant skin calming properties. Ideal for targeting imperfections or soothing signs of irritation and redness.

I get a lot of redness at times, so I do enjoy having a niacinamide in my routine. I do feel I notice the redness less, and less dryness on the nose bridge when I use this.

£3.50 for 25ml I haven’t ever used one before, so I’m unsure of what it dupes.

Salicylic Acid is a beta hydroxy acid derived from willow bark, best known for its skin clearing benefits. Used for targeting impurities, breakouts, excess oil production and enlarged pores, it can help to reduce spots and clear imperfections.

Since I’ve started the Perimenopause my skin has been more unpredictable, and I’ve had recent breakouts like I’m a teen again. Mix in a few drops with your favourite moisturizer and let it fully absorb. I love how they all seem to complement eachother and work well combined.

Hyaluronic acid serum, Low and High Molecular Weight £5.00 for 30ml different feel and colour bottle to the previous one I bought.

This Hyaluronic Acid Super Serum is in a White bottle, with a cloudy opaque serum, instead of an Amber bottle and clear liquid. It’s also 5ml larger and £1.50 dearer. But it feels divine, like cucumber fresh or aloe Vera on the skin, it’s cooling, smooth and refreshing. My thirsty skin loves this.

Since they’ve introduced this skincare range, it’s ignited a passion into my skin routine, and desire to test them out. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed learning new things about my skin and what each of these products do.

    I still haven’t visited the shop to have a look at the skincare but will have to soon. I was telling my Mam about Niacinamide yesterday and she wants to try a serum so this could be a good place for her to start! x
