ELLA K BEAUTY REVIEW

Youth To The People Triple Peptide + Cactus Oasis Serum Review

Triple Peptide + Cactus Oasis Serum is a silky lightweight gel-serum. 
The fragrance-free formula features prickly pear cactus extract, peptides, four types of hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and other skin conditioners.  The serum glides easily over the skin and absorbs to a sheer non-sticky finish.  The formula leaves skin soft and lightly hydrated

CoverGirl Exhibitionist Stretch & Strengthen Mascara Review

Exhibitionist Stretch & Strengthen Mascara creates long and fanned out lashes.  The mascara is enriched with peptides, biotin, and panthenol to strengthen and condition lashes.  The mascara’s wet formula requires careful application to avoid clumping; however, just one swipe builds impressive length and nice volume. 
The formula stays on all day without flaking.

Redken Acidic Perfecting Concentrate Leave-In Treatment Review

Acidic Perfecting Concentrate is a silky leave-in hair treatment for damaged hair.  The treatment features citric acid and a conditioning complex to strengthen and protect hair.  The gel-cream formula glides easily through damp hair; easing tangles and improving manageability without heavy residue. 
The concentrate leaves hair soft, smooth, and voluminous, but the formula is not very hydrating on its own.  This product has a fruity-citrus fragrance.

Klorane Hydrating Water Cream with Cornflower Review

Cornflower Water Cream is a hydrating gel moisturizer with a subtle floral scent.  The formula combines cornflower water, hyaluronic acid, and dextran sulfate to soothe and moisturize. The gel feels slightly tacky during application, but absorbs to a lightweight non-sticky finish. 
The formula leaves skin soft, hydrated, and comfortable.

Phyto Phytojoba Moisturizing Mask Review

Phytojoba Moisturizing Mask is a creamy hair mask with a sweet floral scent.  The formula features jojoba oil, mallow extract, and pea proteins to condition and strengthen hair.  The mask spreads easily through hair, helps with tangles, and rinses out without residue.  The formula leaves hair soft, shiny, and voluminous, but it may not be smoothing enough for coarse, frizzy hair. 

Vichy Mineral 89 Prebiotic Concentrate Review

Vichy Mineral 89 Prebiotic Concentrate is a silky lightweight serum with no added fragrance.  The formula combines mineral-rich volcanic water, niacinamide, and vitreoscilla ferment to help repair and protect the skin barrier.  The serum glides easily over the skin and absorbs without stickiness or residue.  The formula leaves skin soft, lightly hydrated, and comfortable. 

COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid Review

AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid is a toner-like liquid exfoliant with no added fragrance.  The formula features 7% glycolic acid, niacinamide, apple fruit water, and panthenol.  The liquid formula applies easily with a cotton round and absorbs without residue.  The treatment helps smooth, brighten, and clarify skin when used 2-3 times per week.  More frequent use can leave skin red and irritated.
