Current skincare

I while back ago two Swedish bloggers, Julia at DaisyBeauty and Fröken Rosa wrote about products from Garden Of Wisdom. I became very curious and made an order.

What I like about this company is that the products isn't filled with a lot of chemical substances that you never heard about, but instead you only find a short ingredient list with only the active substances that you need.
I prefer a short ingredient list because it is easier to understand what the product will do for you but also if it doesn't work and you are allergic or you break out you can easily see which ingredients that you are reacting to and stay away from them.

I think that I have told you in the past that my skin is very dry so I'm always looking for products that will ease the dryness and I think that I have found a product or actually a combination of three products from the Garden Of Wisdom that work for me.



I mix the three different products together and these three products are a Hyaluronic Acid Serum (HA serum), Chardonnay Grape Seed Oil and Encapsulated Glacier Water Hydrating Gel and this becomes something like a hydration serum.

I think that it is the HA Serum that is the main product in this mix. Hyaluronic Acid is a molecule that can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water which makes it really good as a hydrator. I add the oil and the water in the mix to give the Hyaluronic Acid some moisture to bind to.

I use this mixture after I have cleansed and before my moisturizer. There are two different moisturizers that I alternate between, the Eucerin pH 5 Cream for Sensitive Skin (you can find my review here) and Estée Lauder's Hydrationist Maximum Moisture Cream ( review will be coming soon). I do believe that this has made huge difference in my skin and it definitely feels more moisturized and the dry flakes are history.

I sometimes use the oil on its own on areas that needs a little bit more hydration, mostly around my nose. This oils is quickly absorbed into the skin and it doesn't break me out.

The Encapsulated Glacier Water Hydrating Gel can also be used on its own. It gives a cooling sensation but for me it doesn't give enough hydration on its own. I sometimes use this in the morning before my makeup just to feel a little bit more refreshed.

There are definitely a lot of products that I want to try from Garden Of Wisdom and I am already planning my next order.

I paid for the products with my own money except for the Estée Lauder Hydrationist Maximum Moisture Cream which was given to me by my parents as a Christmas Gift.
This is my own opinion.
