So nourishing
I have always used a hydrating essence as my first step in my morning skincare routine (mainly korean ones) but I jave never used an essence as hydrating and nourishing as this one. A saviour for my winter skin and a perfect base for the rest of mt skincare and makeup. A little goes a long way which helps as it is expensive!
Best Use: Hydrating, Reduce Dullness

Beautiful product
If you are looking for a hydrating glowy product to add to your routine this it! It isn’t sticky or too rich for my oily skin and it melts into the skin like a dream, ideal to use before makeup application. It doesn’t come with a strong scent and is a clean brand so I will defiantly repurchase this size as it’s lasted forever already!,

amazing toner
so smooth, nourishing and matches perfectly when wearing make up! this is my favourite my skin prep before using my makeup and even for skincare in the night, it's just amazing. it's not heavy and the texture is very nice because when dried, you don't feel your skin heavy.
Burst of hydration
I’ve been dealing with a lot of hormonal acne at the moment and due to treatment to combat this my face has been left dry in areas. I tried this on in store and made such a difference to the hydration on my face and dry areas I just had to buy it. Can’t wait to use this product in its full size at Christmas time I know it’ll help so much with the winter weather
Best Use: Hydrating, Barrier Repair

Ilia base face milk
Absolutely love ilias face base milk,The Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint SPF 40 quickly became one of my go-to products because it perfectly blends skincare and makeup in one. As someone who has dry skin, I love how hydrating it feels on my face — it doesn’t cling to dry patches or make my skin feel tight. The texture is super lightweight, almost like a serum, and it gives my skin a dewy, natural finish that looks like my skin but better. What’s really great is that it provides just enough coverage to even out redness and blur imperfections, but it still lets my freckles and natural texture shine through. If you’re after a flawless, full-coverage look, this probably isn’t the product for you, but for a light, fresh-faced glow, it’s perfect. I usually apply it with my fingers for a quick, smooth application, and it blends out really easily — no streaks or patches. The SPF 40 is another huge selling point for me. Having sunscreen built into my makeup routine is a game changer, especially since it doesn’t leave that weird, greasy residue that some tinted sunscreens do. The formula also includes hydrating ingredients like squalane and niacinamide, which is a big bonus since my skin tends to be more on the dry side.
Best Use: Hydrating, Barrier Repair, Uneven Skin Texture
