Sonicare Kids Electric Toothbrush

Lately, I've been on a tooth health craze. It included getting a Waterpik and a new electric toothbrush. 

My old trusty Sonicare electric toothbrush almost died, and I had to switch to something newer. 

But of course, that couldn't end there! I asked my kid if he'd like a new kids electric toothbrush and he said yeah. So I got him a new one from Notino. 

After a bit of research, I picked him up a Philips Sonicare For Kids 3+ which comes with two brushes. One is for smaller kids and the other is for older kids. 

Salicylic Acid in Cosmetics

With the cooler months quickly approaching it is time to bring back some helpful acids into our skincare regime. 

Salicylic acid is one of the most widely used acid types in skincare. It's a staple for acne, breakouts and problematic skin. 

It's a natural substance obtained from willow or birch bark. Ground bark is treated with oxidants and later filtered to produce salicylic acid as a white crystalline powder. This acid can be also produced synthetically from a derivative of acetylsalicylic acid. Both versions are used in the cosmetic and medical industries. 

But our face is not the only part of the body that benefits from using it. Let's see where it's also used. 

What I use to protect my hair from the Sun

Summer is here and I love every second of it! Now that I got used to the heat I'm here for it. But with hot days and intense sun rays there come certain risks. We all know the sun can harm your skin, but did you know it can also harm your hair? 

Luckily we don't have to hide our beautiful locks under hats if we don't want to. There are many products that offer sun hair protection. 

One of them is the Milk_shake Incredible Milk which I've been using. 

Mascara for sensitive eyes

With allergy season in full bloom, it was time for me to find a mascara that wouldn't irritate my eyes. 

I was looking for something that I could wear while using contact lenses. And for a mascara that wouldn't burn when it would inevitably run.

Of course, the mascara I was looking for had to be inexpensive, because I never got used to paying a lot of money for a mascara. Mainly because there are so many amazing ones that cost almost nothing.

I came across Essence Sensitive But WOW Volume mascara and decided to give it a go.

Vitamin C in Cosmetics

Today I want to focus on my favourite ingredient in the cosmetics I use. That's Vitamin C. I know, you may associate it with lemons and oranges and all the health benefits. But that's not the only beneficial thing about it. 

I like adding vitamin C to my water when I'm feeling under the weather. It helps a lot!

But now let us see what it is used for in cosmetics.
