Skincare Edit

I like Finland, but there are things that are damn hard to get in this country. One of them being my choice of skincare. I mean, sure, there are good brands available, but I decided a couple of years ago to invest in the best products that I know. I am over thirty years of age after all. I tend to get a lot of questions concerning my skincare regimen, which is utterly hilarious given that I quite rarely post any photos of myself on social media, but I suppose I learnt a thing or two while I worked in fashion the industry full-time.

So, my go-to resource is Melanie Grant. I treated myself to a facial at her Sydney studio while in Australia earlier this year. The picture above is from last year, but it contains all of my favourite products apart from the Supernatural face cream by Emma Lewisham. I have been using that cream since January and it is the best. I also love Augustinus Bader, but its price tag is high. But if you have never used Biologique Recherche, now is the time. Their P50 is, like they say, a facial in a bottle, and I have never looked back since.

My brother got me a new bottle of P50 and the Serum Iso-Placenta, which is also brilliant, from New York. That is the point - you cannot buy the brand in Finland. P50 is very similar to the Essence by Vintner’s Daughter. Both are damn great, but you can only use one at the time. I always add SPF50, but I tend to change the brand from time to time.
