I hope everyone's Christmas was filled with love, family and lots of food, and that you all stayed safe and were spoilt! 😊

I'm writing about the Alogologie skincare range today, as I've been using this particular line for quite a while. I haven't seen many reviews online about these products and whilst they are high end cosmetics, I believe they are worth it.

Please note that while reading this, keep in mind that EVERYBODY'S skin is different, whether it be acne prone, normal, combination, ageing, young, oily, dry, or dehydrated. My skin type has been 'diagnosed' so to speak, as normal - combination. I am also 20 years old so I don't particularly look for anti-ageing products on the beauty market, although however I do like to use eye creams and oils to prevent harsh ageing later on in life... but I will perhaps make a separate blogpost on my actual skincare routine later on!! 😊

Algologie is a line of skincare from France, with products dedicated to anti-ageing, sensitive skin, body, detox, and algae-based substances and skincare. I personally own the Algae Maceration, Soft Caress Peel, Comfort Mask, Soft Freshness Lotion, and the Caress Cleanser. Here is a breakdown review and my thoughts on each product:

Algae Maceration - this is my favourite product of all my Algologie range! It firms my skin, refines my pores and recovers my skins balance. I usually use this product 2-3 times a week, specifically when my skin is feeling dehydrated or when it looks like I am lacking nutrients. The maceration is made with 100% natural Fucus, and contains a large amount of nutrients to help draw the elements the skin needs to recover the vitality. The smell is a little funky, but I don't really mind as it makes my skin feeling absolutely beautiful and glowy!

Soft Caress Peel - this is a soft white cream that contain green and white exfoliant beads which are actually Jojoba Esters. It has a beautiful massaging effect when applied to the skin and can be applied to even the most sensitive of skins, as it does not irritate and contains Aloe, Shea Butter and Camomile. To use, I massage it into my damp face for approximately 2-3 minutes using soft circle motions. The longer you massage, the more you will see dead skin being 'peeled' from your skin. Once I am satisfied with the peeling of my skin, I rinse off with warm water and pat dry. I am always left with a fresh and bright complexion that is silky smooth! This peel is also a great preparation for the Caress Comfort Mask (next).

Caress Comfort Mask - this mask contains a soft cream that has been specifically formulated to be used on problem areas of skin, especially sensitive skin. It contains anti-inflammatory ingredients, and essential oils and vitamins to clean the skin and absorb impurities. To use this mask, I tend to apply it very thick to my entire face and neck about once a week. I leave it on for 20-30 mins, then rinse off with warm water and pat dry. My skin feels very fresh and supple afterwards, and my pores are more refined and my skin looks healthy! By using this once a week, I believe it has improved impurities on my skin.

Soft Freshness Lotion - is a soft lotion that is alcohol free, including rose water, essential vitamins and extracts. This is usually applied AFTER the caress cleanser, by a cotton tip. I use this approximately every second night, and afterwards I am left with beautiful soft, radiant skin. It frees my skin of impurities, and puts in everything that my skin is craving.

Caress Cleanser - this is my number one step for a very clean face! I use this BEFORE the soft freshness lotion every second day. It includes corn, almond and what germ oils, and vitamins and extracts- perfect to really get into the skin and give it a good clean. I massage the light cream into my skin softly for approx 30 seconds and then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. This makes me skin feel so clean, especially after those long makeup days!

As I mentioned earlier, these products are in the higher end market of beauty products, so their price range is quite high. However if you're similar to me, and don't mind spending money on skincare to help and look after your skin, then its definitely worth a try!!
