Review of Skinician, an Irish Skincare Brand

I have been using some new products from an Irish brand SKINICIAN for the past few weeks. The products were gifted and specifically chosen for my ageing skin. As my regular readers know, I like to try a new brand for at least a month before I write a review. Sometimes I do not make it past a week, because the products don’t suit me. Skincare is very personal so we all need to find what suits us and Skinician products suit me very well. The only product I was not mad about was the cleanser, so I did not stick with it.  Iprefer creamier or gel cleansers, but it might suit you.

Skinician Skin Products

AGELESS OVERNIGHT RETINOL POWERBALM

Skinician Retinol

WHAT IS RETINOL?

It is a form of Vitamin A, an ingredient that is proven to promote skin renewal and enhance collagen production. It promises to increase skin hydration and strengthen elastin. It also can help to reduce pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles. The idea behind retinol is that it speeds up the renewal of cells.

HOW DO YOU USE IT?

Ageless Overnight Retinol Power Balm is a lightweight balm that can be used on its own or under a moisturiser. If you are new to retinol, or if you have dry skin or experience tightness and flakiness, it is recommended that Ageless Overnight Retinol Power Balm is layered under your night cream. It is important to begin by adding this retinol into your evening routine one to two nights per week for the first week and build it up as your skin adapts.

And like every retinol, you must protect your skin from UV damage every day with an SPF of 30+

MY EXPERIENCE

This is the first retinol I have used in 10 months. My skin had previously developed a sensitivity to it. But with this retinol product, there has been no irritation at all. And like before, my skin is noticeably smoother, softer and brighter. I see a slight improvement in pigmentation too.

ADVANCED TIME DELAY DAY CREAM

Skinician Skin Products

What’s not to love about this day cream?

It is super hydrating and very light to use, gliding onto my skin.  Containing all those ingredients which you want in a day cream (e.g. hyaluronic acid and Vitamin E), it has a luminous, immediate brightening effect.

And importantly it has SPF 30. I use it under my much-loved IT Cosmetics CC CREAM.

ADVANCED RESTORING NIGHT CREAM

Skinician Skin Products

This is described as an advanced anti-ageing night cream that works while you sleep, increasing the production of collagen and elastin to plump and firm the skin. Again, it has a plethora of ingredients like botanicals to increase hydration and repair your skin. Exactly what my ageing skin needs.

AGELESS PEPTIDE EYE COMPLEX

Skinician EYE COMPLEX

Using powerful peptides, this promises to hydrate and reduce the appearance of your lines and wrinkles. It also contains UV filters to protect the skin around the eye from harmful UV rays. It is lovely to use and I can see an immediate difference in hydration around the eyes.

OTHER FACTS

  • Free from parabens, palm oil, and mineral oil
  • All bottles, tubes & cartons are recyclable
  • Cruelty Free
  • Vegan-friendly formulae
  • If you are in the market to try some new skincare, with powerful active ingredients and at a reasonable price considering the quality of the products, then SKINICIAN is worth considering.

Core memories made celebrating GG's 70th Birthday Core memories made celebrating GG's 70th Birthday with our beautiful family on Safari in Birmingham last week.

Let's call it chaotic; wild & wonderful all at once with four Grandkids between 17 months and 7 years old. 😂

Our Indian Summer and a visit to Gorgeous Gort and Our Indian Summer and a visit to Gorgeous Gort and our friends @annademart.ie and @hynes6026 gave me a chance to wear this beautiful dress from @paulasmalahide. Visited Coole Park and Thoor Ballylee, ate delicious food  and drank too much wine with lovely people @mcevoycarlos and @mcevoyleonie. More pics on stories.

Realised I had not given this lovely dress a place Realised I had not given this lovely dress a place on the grid. Bought from @studio124dublin. Over on the blog I have published a post on having a colonoscopy. 
Yes exciting stuff! But decided not to publish a picture of my colon. Yes you have been saved that!
Have a lovely day. The sun is out.

Magic weather this weekend .... Magic weather this weekend ....
Great fun at launch of @travel_department and @tda Great fun at launch of @travel_department and @tdactiveholidays 2024 brochures with new initiatives and destinations. Get planning now with the best in #guided travel. Don't leave it too late. Practically nothing left this year.
Crochet is the theme for this month's 'Style Not A Crochet is the theme for this month's 'Style Not Age'! I may not have crushed it but I did do some damage to my fingers. Hence splints and red bandages.Yes rushing about and tripped ...luckily only on grass or it could have been worse. It might have been my teeth!

Anyway back to the outfit. I had to borrow a crochet top and bag from my friend @marie.sweeney4. And they look amazing with my suit bought from @studio124dublin and hat @wallaroohatsuk (old)
Pop over to see how my friends tackled the challenge

Accessorising my bandages is now a priority! And I Accessorising my bandages is now a priority! And I found the perfect leather phone bag @bagsbylanda A/W launch today. It holds more than a phone, by the way! Room for lippy, cards and keys too!
I love a small bag for walking and shopping and this beauty in top quality leather comes in a variety of colours. 
And yes it came home with me!
More pics on stories.
Shopped my wardrobe for the rest.

Love the colour of this linen shirt and it is always packed for sun holidays, because of its versatility.

 Years old and bought @paulasmalahide.  Here it acts as a cover up over a swimsuit in Dubrovnik. Also love the colour and roominess of the Yoko bag @absolutely_patsy. 
Sunnies  and slides @tkmaxxie.
Let's hope the good weather stays. I might even venture into the Irish sea!😂

'Kimono my House' is Gail's prompt for this month' 'Kimono my House' is Gail's prompt for this month's 'Style Not Age'! And I did not realise it was an album by The Sparks back in 1974. 🫢
That was the year I did my Leaving Cert exams so maybe that is why it passed me by. But I do like kimonos. 
Love the paisley pattern and have no idea where I got it. Check out my friends @is_this_mutton_ @thestylesplash @annasislandstyle @mummabstylish.

Do you have clothes that only see the light of day Do you have clothes that only see the light of day when you are on holidays? I do. Though this jumpsuit from @trafficpeople was worn a few times in Ireland when we had a heatwave! Remember😂
The hat from @h&m was prettied up with a scarf and birkenstock dupes are @tkmaxxie.
Blog post up about our trip to Dubrovnik. We had a blast at Ali and Ian's wedding. Dubrovnik is beautiful.

We were married 41 years ago on the hottest day of We were married 41 years ago on the hottest day of the year. Still mad about him and often with him, but still love him completely and for ever!

'Love's not time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come.'

 What is the secret? 
Resilience, an ability to compromise and a sense of humour. Oh and an ability to zone out. GG is a sweetheart, kind and loving. He has an endearing/annoying habit of telling the same stories time and again. Now I zone out. 🙂
He puts up with my shortcomings too, though I am sure they are minor😂
