My glow up: the routine that changed my skin
Everything I use for my rosacea skin, step by step: from the Omnilux red LED mask to Soolantra and Skinoren.
Babé Mineral SPF 50: my current favourite
The best of the best: they spread and reapply beautifully. The minuses are a too-dark tinted shade, leaky packaging and nano titanium.
Chanel Water-Fresh Tint: your skin but better
A gorgeous base: light coverage, skin that looks like it drank water and a lovely glow. People told me my skin looked better. Rating 4.5/5.
Babé SPF 50 for lips and cheeks: a lovely Mocca shade
Lovely colour and lovely shine, an OK texture that's a little sticky, and a typical SPF taste and smell. I'd still buy it again.
Bioderma Sensibio H2O: bottle number fifty and still my first step
My long-time favourite, I must be on my fiftieth bottle. Forever my first step, and my skin is better for it.
Bioderma Photoderm AR SPF 50+: some coverage, but it didn't calm my redness
The new tinted anti-redness SPF gives some coverage, but it doesn't spread nicely, it's chemical and it seemed to cause redness for me.
Avène B-Protect SPF 50+: good for summer, but drying
A tinted SPF with just the right coverage for summer that slightly masks redness, but it's drying and builds up during the day.
