recommendations for skincare products from australia

[veraclari]

dear cotters, can't seem to find any post on this... kindly advise what brands and which products are good? ESP. organic products? I'm currently using estee and sk2 and clinique and Vichy anti aging products for dehydrated skin (slightly oily). totally open to drugstore brands as well thanks!

australian drugstore brands do not differ too much from the singaporean drugstore ones i believe..

australian skincare brands that i can think of offhand available in singapore is Aesop, A'kin, Sukin, Jurlique, Renew, Coast to Coast, Bod.

i believe that these skincare brands all are considered natural, but only Jurlique seems to be the only one that is considered natural. of them all, i only have experience with aesop. ^^"

The Shylina organic range is sold here, must say is effective on the skin after trying

aye? sala, hahaha i think all are considered natural but only jurlique is considered organic.

good products from aesop.. mmm is there any ingredient that you are particularly allergic to? like aloe vera juice (which i think is quite generously used in their serum moisturizers, i remember someone commented on the aesop thread that she was unfortunately allergic to aloe juice.) or cetearyl alcohols?

you mentioned that you have dehydrated and slightly oily skin. mmm are you looking to change your entire routine?
their fabulous face cleanser is quite good for low/non foaming cleanser,
purifying facial exfoliant paste is a lot easier to use than the tea tree leaf facial exfoliant,
my skin was super dehydrated and i was using very drying alcohol sunscreen so their parsley cleansing oil didnt work for me, not sure if it will now that i've changed my sunscreen,
if you are prone to dehydration even in the undereye area and can frequently see fine lines appearing even though you've been using eye serums, i quite liked their parsley seed eye cream too,
yes to parsley seed anti ox serum,
yes to parsley seed anti ox toner, but they have a B & T balancing toner which looks tempting which i have not tried before,
oil free hydrating serum is also good if parsley seed anti ox serum is too rich as hydrating serum,
as for cream/oil moisturizers... hmm. their fab face oil is quite good, but ex though you wont need a lot, i didnt try their mandarin cream which is touted as their lightest cream as i wasnt sure about applying citrus in the day, so i jumped to their primrose hydrating cream which is alright.

do take note if your skin reacts negatively to cetearyl alcohols, you'll have to eliminate quite a lot of products.

thanks yat ting looks like I *** check out their parsley seed oil range . heard jurlique is not bad but is much more expensive, hence maybe try asp first .

ya.. jurlique is quite ex. i got my sis to purchase a mist from them for me to try before. i wasnt impressed even after trying out the rest of their products at te jurlique counters so i didnt go on using a whole routine.

You can go on any drug store and purchase only that product which suits your skin type otherwise they react on your skin and your your skin will look bad.

I think Olay which is available both in Singapore and Australia has a pretty good range of products to suit most skin types.
