Dior Pore Reducing Pro-Youth Moisturizer



Hello everyone! Today I have a product that I have been using for a couple of months now and can say I really love. I had to share info on this as I know that invisible pores is something most of us need and desire. 
This product is amazing. I had been using another serum for minimizing pores (Idealist-Estee Lauder) but it was sold out at my local beauty store and was recommended this.
It claims that: 

''A luxurious moisturizer to reduce the appearance of pores, deeply hydrate, and provide a matte radiance. Hydra Life Close-Up reduces the appearance of pores both instantly and over time. Dior identified three different causes of visible pores dry pores, linked to accumulation of dead skin cells on the skin's surface; oily pores, from excess sebum production; and slackened pores, caused by loss of collagen. To the trio of Hydra Life active ingredients, black rose, jisten, and centella, Dior added an innovative ingredient: flax flower, to act on all underlying causes of visible pores. Additionally, optical powders provide a matte radiance to the skin. Pores appear invisible, even close-up. Upon application, the skin is rebalanced and hydrated, the pores are tightened, and skin's texture is smooth and even. Research results: In an instrumental test on 10 women, hydration after 2 hours; effect on pores immediately after application: - Hydration +40% - Visible pores -40%''



Ι must admit that I had been using it for about a month before really noticing the benefits. There were no visible results at first. Now I can say that it does help my skin. I am in my early forties with normal skin and a bit of redness. I need to use something in the morning as a base for my make up. This moisturizes, reduces the appearance of pores and works great under my foundation. It has a pinkish beige gel/cream consistency and feels amazing. However, the results do take time.


It does have a steep price tag but I believe it is worth it. It comes in a pump so a little goes a long way. Once you try this, there’s no stopping it.

Tzimas cosmetics


Hello lovelies! Today I have a new brand to talk about. It is another fabulous Greek brand from Thessaloniki! I love shopping in that city as the downtown shopping district is amazing. I went into the Tzimas cosmetics shop on Tsimiski street after hearing rave reviews from friends.
I have bought fragrance oils from them before but had never tried any skin care products.
My serum ran out so I decided to buy one from Tzimas as their products are all made in Greece and are affordable.




Bioactive Serum

The product claims to have an effective formula against sagging and provides a facial contour lifting effect. I have been using it for a little over 2 weeks so I can't really say I have noticed a lifting effect yet, however, the texture of my skin has improved and my make up glides on flawlessly. I use it every morning after my moisturizer. It has a thick gel consistency.
The only thing I mind a little is the fragrance. It is a little strange but thankfully doesn't stay on for too long.
I have to mention that the customer service there is exceptional. The sales associate was kind enough to take time and explain the various products available and supply me with samples. She even took time to explain how the samples should be used. Really incredible!
I have tried the Tinted Sun Protective Cream and I love it. I will be purchasing that very soon for the summertime.
Bottle is 30ml and retails for 14 euros.
