MY TOP 11 SKINCARE PRODUCTS 2022 {PART 2}

 Having posted part 1 of my Top 11 Skincare Products of 2022

a couple of days ago here is part 2 and it consists of 5 products.

if you would like to catch up on part 1 Click here

I have 2 face masks, a primer, a night cream and an expensive

cream that has been on my radar for several years.

BY TERRY 

UV-BASE PRIMER SPF 50

Primers are not high on my beauty agenda and I have only reviewed a 

couple over my blogging time, so when I saw this full size inclusion in the

BY TERRY 2021 Beauty Advent calendar I was interested, 

but not hugely excited.

Did I really need this primer in my life?

This ingenious skin-shielding primer

will PRIME, PERFECT and PROTECT your skin.

The fresh, lightweight cream gel texture gives a non-greasy, dewy finish, 

providing the perfect canvas for all your make up application.

I'm still always surprised when I 

discover I adore a product that I had convinced myself

that either I won't like or don't need, how wrong I can be...

Full Review

I have 2 face masks on this years list and one is a Super Luxe

French product whilst the other is a more affordable South African

home grown brand and both deserve their place on this list.

SISLEY 

BLACK ROSE 

CREAM MASK

This deliciously scented with rose, soft, creamy textured mask creates

 a moment of relaxation and pleasure that felt wonderful on my skin.

Key ingredients immediately get to work on signs of fatigue

 and leaves the skin looking youthful and energized.

 Immediately hydrated and plumped, my skin also felt smoother, incredibly

soft, less fatigued and more radiant.

Of all the products to try 1st from Sisley, this was the ONE and it certainly

 didn't disappoint in any way...

SKOON 

RUBY MARINE 

OVERNIGHT HYDRATING

 FACE MASK

The aim of this face mask is to ultimately give a moisture top up for 

all skin types and boost overnight hydration.

Its formulation promises to both soothe and hydrate your skin whilst

 you sleep. 

It protects against winter dry skin and improves skin barrier,

especially for dull, sensitive skins.

Like no other mask that I have ever felt or applied, it is different and not

the "norm" in masking terms.

This thick pink buttery mask had a divine vanilla fragrance and was easy

to apply.

I found this mask to sit on the skin and create a barrier rather than 

being absorbed into my skin, so therefore it felt quite greasy, which I 

didn't really mind, as it was an overnight product,

The next morning my skin certainly felt softer and this mask

has found a place in my "Masking" wardrobe of products.

RAIN

RELAXING NIGHT CREAM

Is a natural relaxing night-time moisturiser, formulated with 

probiotics and botanicals known for skin conditioning.

This calming night cream has an ultra-rich and luxurious texture and it's

  the type of texture that's reminiscent of the night creams pre the

cream/gel era.

Despite having a rich texture, which is an absolute pleasure to apply

 to a dry/ very dry skin, it isn't heavy at all.

The skin feels comforted, nourished but more importantly non greasy.

My skin responded well to this night cream and it's one that I would

highly recommend for normal/dry or sensitive skins.

AUGUSTINUS BADER

THE RICH CREAM

The original award-winning daily moisturizer is intensely luxurious, 

hydrating and nourishing. 

Supports cellular renewal to dramatically improve the complexion's appearance. 

The texture is luxuriously rich and creamy and it glides on beautifully, yet

initially I wasn't wowed by this product, which I was expecting considering

the price point, but patience is needed as with most skincare and as the first

month of use approached I began to notice my skin was definitely smoother,

plumper, softer and generally was looking great.

 I'm now able to fully understand the cult following/addiction, as

it's been like no other product that I've ever tried.

That completes my "Top" Product posts for 2022 and if you would like to

 see what other

products I loved and highly recommend then I'll

MY TOP 11 SKINCARE PRODUCTS 2022 {PART 1}

As I have done in previous years I'll be splitting this post into 2 parts.

I have 11 excellent skincare products (which is 2 less than 2021)

that are all deserving of a place on 

this 2022 list and in my opinion are worthy of a purchase.

Todays post will include 6 products and I will post part 2

which will include my next 5 skincare products very soon...

I do however highly recommend that you read my original reviews on

 each product below to find out all the product info and more on my

 thoughts and opinions.

I normally begin with cleansers, yet this has to be the first time that

 cleansers have not appeared on my list

and that's not due to me not reviewing any good ones, as I did, but

I only take my absolute favourite skincare products across the board

and the items below came out above any of those reviewed cleansing

products.

  Eye Treatments are up first, as it's one of my favourite

categories, as I started using back in my late teens/early 20's

 and they've always been present in my daily skincare regime.

These three, I rate highly and are all different in regards to

their function and vary in prices.

STRIVECTIN  

ANTI-WRINKLE 

INTENSIVE EYE CONCENTRATE PLUS

I've loved using this eye cream 

It's fast-absorbing, lightweight, and layerable plus fragrance-free.

It's been a perfect twice daily eye cream and whilst results from

eye creams can take some time to be noticeable, if at all, I personally

experienced an improvement over the last seven and half months of use,

especially in the smoothness and firmness of the skin under the eye

 and an improvement in the depth of the 2 lines between my brows.

Now it didn't happen within 5 Days as they claim, but perhaps if

the eye area had been very neglected, I can only imagine how quick

you could see an improvement.

It provided me with enough moisturization and hydration and I loved

 the needle point nozzle that really allows for complete control 

 of the amount you dispense, making this eye cream very cost effective, 

especially as it's on the pricey side.

CLARINS

TOTAL 

EYE CONTOUR GEL

Using this eye product again after so many years has been a real

trip down a "Beauty Memory Lane".

It was the first treatment eye product I ever used at the tender age of

 around 19 or 20.

I was happy to see that the products features and benefits had

remained basically the same as this cooling, non-oily eye gel is still 

formulated to minimise the look of puffiness and dark circles.

I'm so glad I've re-discovered the blue eye gel or should

I say the current version, as it's just as refreshing, cooling and de-puffing

as I remember and a product I would highly recommend and one

that I mustn't forget about again....

Skin Proud

 Icicle Cooling Eye Serum Stick

Featuring a five-part hyaluronic acid complex, this instantly cooling balm

 freshens and tightens, whilst helping to lock in hydration for healthy

 under eyes.

 The unique balm-like texture can be used on bare skin or added 

over make up for an instant pick me up when your eyes are feeling tired.

Now this product hasn't replaced any of my current eye treatments,

 but it's rather a welcome extra addition.

(I must be on my 3rd or 4th one)

If you are a "first timer" with an eye product, then this is a great one.

I personally find it so easy to just pick up and apply

several times a day, as I adore the packaging, the swipe around the

eye application and its instantly cooling effect.

Next are Serums and I have three on my "tops" list and I have absolutely

 loved using them all, 

so whether you are looking to introduce a serum into your routine or

take your serum intensity up a notch or two, I found all to be excellent.

ELEMIS

PRO-COLLAGEN

RENEWAL SERUM

In my eyes ELEMIS can do no wrong, as I have yet to use one of their

products that I didn't like or enjoy.

The Pro-Collagen Renewal Serum is a rejuvenating and firming serum 

that encourages renewal without any retinol.

It could not have been any easier to incorporate into my existing  

daily skincare regime.

In a "Beauty Nutshell" it's an effective, easy to use, lightweight

 Retinol Alternative Facial Concentrate that can be used by all skin types.

If you’re after youthful and plump skin without any of the side effects

from Retinol products like dryness, redness or irritation, 

look no further, I’ve found the one.

BIOLUMIN-C SERUM

BRIGHTENING VITAMIN C SERUM

This is a High-performance serum that enhances the skin’s 

natural defence system to brighten, firm and help dramatically reduce

 the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

I noticed fairly quickly how much more radiant my skin was and 

with time the texture of my skin appeared smoother.

I have thoroughly enjoyed using this Vitamin C Serum and would highly 

recommend checking it out if you looking to introduce one into your

daily routine, it's well worth the splurge...

Full Review

DERMALOGICA 

NECK FIT CONTOUR SERUM 

Here is another Dermalogica serum, but this time its a

specific treatment for the neck.

This firming serum is a skin care workout for your neck and décolleté. 

With the help of the roller applicator, this product trains the neck to

 be tighter, smoother, more toned and contoured. 

Flex Lift Contour Technology acts like an invisible mesh to immediately

 tighten skin. 

Plant-based science and a novel tripeptide ​deliver Retinol-like results,

 visibly smoothing, firming and toning skin. 

This product has been one of my "Beautiful" finds during 2022 

and I have been absolutely loving this product since I started using

it at the beginning of November.

(I still have plenty left in my 50ml tube, so the cost per application

 is proving to be pretty good)

This product is a definite keeper, as I have been super impressed with 

the visible results and would highly recommend if, like me, you feel 

that its time to focus on your neck area.
