It is always great to work with people who have the same mindset as you. One of them is Alice who owns Coos Cosmetics, an online webshop that offers Korean beauty products. Once in a while when she has new brands she asks me if I want to try them out. I can’t say no to that! This time she had Thank You Farmer and Huxley and I had the opportunity to pick one item of each brand! Oh, and at the end of this article there will be a GIVEAWAY!
Huxley Secret Of Sahara Oil Essence / €39,95
The Huxley Secret Of Sahara Oil Essence (pfhoeee) is not your ordinary essence. This oil essence gets absorbed by the skin so fast that you have to be quick with rubbing it into the skin.The 61% Sahara Cactus Seed Oil is filled with Vitamin E and antioxidants which make this oil quickly absorbed by the skin while lasting the hydration and protection of the skin. Organic Sahara Cactus Oil, Quinoa and Acai berry make this oil essence a powerful and energizing antioxidant.
The Oil Essence has this amazing fresh but also spiced scent. I have this product for a while now but I love the scent more when it is hot outside. It makes me feel calm and energized! The texture of the oil essence is smooth af; apply a small amount on the back of your hand and feel it glide over your skin. Within seconds your skin has absorbed the oil essence without leaving a sticky feeling behind.
I like to use my Oil Essence during the day when I’m in a rush or want to have minimal amount of products on my skin. The oil essence is the most hydrated essence I’ve ever used: you only need a small amount of the oil essence, pat it on the skin and let it absorb. This whole process only takes you 30 seconds and your skin will thank you for that. Perfect for those hot summer days when you don’t want to have a sticky face of all the moisturizers and sunscreen you are wearing. Grab your Huxley Oil Essence and you are good to go! Ofcours you can finish your routine with your regular moisturized but during these summer days I avoid heavy creams and look for a great essence of hydrating sunscreen.

Thank You Farmer Miracle Age Repair Toner / €29,95
The Miracle Age Repair Toner from Thank You Farmer is this rich toner that does more than only tone the skin. It will make your skin texture feel and look smoother, comfortable and it adds moisture. When you tink about an Age Repair Toner don’t get scared that your skin may be too young for it. It will also help to clear up the skin and make it look even by filling up the fine lines. A toner that helps to prepare the skin for the next skincare steps, works as a serum and emulsion by hydrating and nourishing the skin!
It’s been a while since I used such a rich toner for my skin. For a while I avoided such products because I have a very oily skin. Pixi Glow Tonic has been my go to toner but it was time to try something different. The Miracle Age Repair Toner is a rich toner that feels like an emulsion on the skin. You can apply it on your fingers or on a cotton, massage it into the skin with circular motions and finish your skincare routine. Thank You Farmer sees this toner as a serum or moisturizer because it has such a rich texture. I think you could use this toner perfect during the winter when your skin lacks moisture and during the summer as a moisturizer.
As an oily skin girl I can’t say that I love this product during the summer because it is just too rich for me and I kinda have the feeling that it really ‘lays’ on my skin. It doesn’t feel like it gets absorbed by the skin quickly which makes me feel annoyed, especially during the summer. I think I can better save this toner for the winter time. People with dry or sensitive skin will absolutely love this toner! My little sister has really dry skin, sometimes he has dry patches all over her face. She loves this toner because it makes her skin feel les sensitive and hydrated all day.
