When moving on from the typical cleanse-tone-moisturise skincare routine, one of the first things that became an addition for me was a serum. They're typically great little powerhouses that you can select and choose what is going to benefit your skin the most and what problems you have. This Salmon Oil Nutrition Serum aims to slow down the appearance of wrinkles and other signs of ageing, whiten the skin and help stimulate collagen production. For aspects such as anti-ageing, it's almost impossible for me to test as I don't have any visible wrinkles yet. So I will be reviewing this purely on how it makes my skin feel and look after use. 

This post is in part of a series of posts about eyenlip where I have received I variety of products to try out and in return, review here on my blog for my readers to discover. All opinions are my own, however.

A B O U T   E Y E N L I P 

Eyenlip was launched in 2017 by the founders of beautynetkorea, a stockist and seller of a large variety of Korean beauty brands. They also have their own eBay page where they sell the same items under the username f2plus1 (which is one of my most used and trusted stores on the site). Over the past year or so the brand coming to be, they have been gradually building their repertoire of skincare and makeup products. With the aim of making their products affordable and easily accessible, targeting a number of different concerns.

Of course, while testing this Black Snail All-in-One Cream from eyenlip, I'm not going to see the full anti ageing effects as I'm lucky enough to not have any wrinkles as of yet. However, I'm able to give a general impression of this moisturiser and how it has benefited my own skin.  

Not surprisingly, as a product that has snail mucus in it, the cream itself has a stickiness to it. While taking it out of the tub you will notice it's a little stringy as it's moved about. However, this stickiness doesn't last when applied onto the skin. It's a very lightweight and gentle moisturiser that manages to help my skin overall feel a lot less dehydrated. A little goes a long way and you only need to use a small amount to make sure that your entire face benefits. Because of this, I found it to be a very useful morning moisturiser as it absorbed into my skin within a few minutes, leaving me with smooth skin, ready to apply my make up base. There's nothing worse than using a morning moisturiser and your skin still feels heavy and clogged with moisturiser before having to then apply makeup afterwards. 

I also ended up using this as a primary neck moisturiser. Since this is an area where ageing is supposed to show first, it has helped me keep the skin on my neck protected and hydrated. 

Overall, I've felt quite impressed with this little moisturiser and with a lot in the pot and being less than £5 in price, it's worth trying out at the very least. I would definitely consider repurchasing this if I was in a pinch with money and needed a good quality moisturiser. As with all the eyenlip products, this can be purchased at BeautyNetKorea. 

Leegeehaam has been one of these brands I've seen floating about in the K-beauty community on Instagram and I kept wondering where I should start with trying the brand's products. However, StyleKorean, who regularly hosts a series called Try Me, Review Me, in which people can apply to try out certain products selected by StyleKorean and give a little review on them. I was lucky enough to be picked as one of the twenty people to be picked for the most recent Leegeehaam Try Me Review Me that the site held. So I was more than excited for this parcel to arrive at my door. 

We were given a selection of 3 different products from their Grow range. Leegeehaam has a selection of four different collections of products that follow different rules and the initials make up part of the brand's name.

LEEGEEHAAM HYAL B5 TONER

Toner is essential to the skin following cleansing and it's the type of product I end up buying too many of. While they don't have to have a major impact on the skin, using a good toner can make all the difference to your skin compared to a poor one. The Hyal B5 toner contains 5 Hyaluronic Complex (namely Hydroxypropyltrimonium hyaluronate,  hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, sodium acetylated hyaluronate, sodium hyaluronate, ascorbyl propyl hyaluronate) to moisturise dehydrated skin and prevent water loss from the skin itself. Which is great to hear from a toner as many can be very acidic and end up just stripping your skin of moisture instead of adding to it. 

Something a little unique about this toner that rather than being a simple pour out or spray toner, it actually features a pump. The texture of the toner itself is not a typical toner one. It has a watery feel while maintaining an amount of viscosity to it. Almost like an incredibly light serum. 

INGREDIENTS

Water, Glycerin, Methylpropanediol, Propanediol, 1,2-hexanediol, Niacinamide, Glycereth-26, Panthenol, Dioscorea japonica root extract, Arctium lappa root extract, Phellinus linteus extract, Coceth-7, Betaine, Ethylhexylglycerin, Piper methysticum leaf/root/stem extract, Centella asiatica extract, Panax ginseng berry extract, Vanilla planifolia fruit extract, Hydrogenated lecithin, Ppg-1-peg-9 lauryl glycol ether, Polyquaternium-51, Tromethamine, Glyceryl glucoside, Olea europaea (olive) fruit oil, Glycosyl trehalose, Adenosine, Hydrogenated starch hydrolysate, Biosaccharide gum-1, Raffinose, Beta-glucan, Peg-40 hydrogenated castor oil, Acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, Xanthan gum, Sodium hyaluronate, Cellulose gum, Hydroxypropyltrimonium hyaluronate, Lecithin, Michelia alba leaf oil, Myristica fragrans (nutmeg) kernel oil, Daucus carota sativa (carrot) seed oil, Elettaria cardamomum seed oil, Michelia alba flower oil, Tagetes minuta flower oil, Butylene glycol, Hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid, Ascorbyl propyl hyaluronate

It absorbs quickly into the skin, making my skin feel almost immediately more moisturised. Also making the skin feel very refreshed. As I've mentioned several times, I don't actually use cotton pads for toner or the like for the most part as I prefer just to spray or apply to my face and pat gently, and I feel the way this toner is presented makes it ideal for my own preferred method. 

You only need a couple of pumps to get the right amount to apply to the skin so this big bottle can last a long long time depending on how much regular use you get out of it. I'm going to test this out over the winter time in particular (which is already setting in in Scotland) to see how much this adds to my skin's moisture at a time when my skin is most likely to be dehydrated and begging for something to help it out.

LEEGEEHAAM GROW VITA PROPOLIS AMPOULE

Propolis is an ingredient that hasn't really appeared in my own skincare that I've used thus far. A compound created by bees mixing beeswax with saliva and a variety of other elements. However, I have heard of the many benefits that it does have for the skin, including the acceleration of the growth of cells, soothing skin and reviving skin to look less dull to just name a few. Trying a new key ingredient that aims to help several concerns of my own skin drags me in purely by intrigue.

Dropper bottles tend to be some of my favourite when the bottle itself is clear and the colour of the product inside, making it really shine. The gorgeous honey-like colour really adds a little bit of colour to LGH's minimal skincare line. 

INGREDIENTS
Propolis Extract, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Hippophae Rhamnoides Extract, Panthenol, Rosa Centifolia Flower Water, Niacinamide, 1,2-Hexanediol, Ethyl Ascorbyl Ether, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Bark/Twig Extract, Centella Asiatica Extract, Carbomer, Arginine, Spirodela Polyrrhiza Extract , Hydroxyethylcellulose, Dipotassium, Glycyrrhizate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Adenosine

LEEGEEHAAM GROW MATCHA CLAY PACK

Clay packs were the first types of face masks I came across as a teenager and ones I always enjoyed using. Particularly as an acne sufferer, clay masks can be the ideal counterpart to a skincare routine to help you draw out some of the nasties in your skin that may not be helping with your acne. The Leegeehaam Matcha Clay Pack combines my love for clay masks with my love of Matcha. You all will know that green tea has many positive benefits not only for your body internally but also externally. And this mask mixes Matcha with a white clay to help detoxify and purify the skin. 

The gorgeous minty green shade combined with the minimalist white and forest type green colour brings the whole thing together simply and beautifully. I've had a couple of uses out of this since I received it and my general first impression of it is that it's a powerful little mask. 

Taking it out of the jar with the spatula to prevent messy hands and waste, the product glides onto the skin with ease, with the spatula making it easier to get into the little nooks around your nose. It also dries very quickly, surprisingly quick as well. If you apply it a little too close to the mouth, it can't be difficult to move your mouth and speak properly as I managed to find out the hard way. So 10 minutes is all this mask needs before you wash it away.

INGREDIENTS

Water, Kaolin, Dipropylene glycol, Bentonite, Camellia sinensis leaf extract, Betaine, Silica, Butylene glycol, Montmorillonite, 1,2-hexanediol, Illite, Hydroxyacetophenone, Hydroxyethyl urea, Cellulose, Xanthan gum, Chromium oxide greens, Citric acid, Citrus aurantium bergamia (bergamot) fruit oil, Disodium edta, Ethylhexylglycerin, Lavandula angustifolia (lavender) oil

This mask makes my skin feel nourished and supple while looking radiant and bright. The redness of acne scars had reduced and any spots above the skin had also decreased in size. I definite win from this one. Sometimes clay masks can be a hit or a miss but this one is a clear hit! I've had a few uses from it and I know it's going to be added to my regular weekly cycle of face masks from now on.

OVERALL

My first impression on not only these products, but Leegeehaam as a brand has been an incredibly positive one and I don't understand now why it took me so long to get round to actually trying a least a few products from them. I'll definitely be making repurchases of all of these products sometime in the future and will be looking to try a few other products from the Grow and other ranges from LGH.
