Japanese sunscreens have always stood out to me because of their elegant formula/finish so when Kao Corporation launched the Nivea UV Deep Protect & Care Gel in February, I knew I had to try it; especially since it has a high UVA & UVB rating (SPF 50+ PA++++). Let’s take a look: One feature that stood out to me is…
This month’s skincare empties packs a punch with products from every category; we’ve got the most affordable Vitamin C serum ever, a cult favorite BHA product, and even body care. Oh, and some Nigerian brands are featured too so, grab a snack and read on. All products are available to purchase at Eve Beautique unless stated otherwise. Starting with the…
When treating hyperpigmentation, an approach that targets multiple corrective pathways is essential to maximize efficacy. In English- It takes a VILLAGE! This is why I was excited to grab the Urban Skin Rx Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment as soon as I came across it. I’ve had this product in my routine for about 3 months and it’s…
For January skincare empties, we have a cleansing oil that contains the newest exfoliant on the block ‘PHA’, a soothing essence that everyone and their grandma swears by, and a sun stick with SPF 50+ that makes the reapplication life easier.

Having experienced the benefits of Azelaic Acid in a product with an inelegant formula, I went hunting for more products with this amazing ingredient.

This post will be featuring three glow keepers; my all-time favorite sunscreen so far (yep I’ve tried a couple), a vitamin-rich brightening moisturizer, and a super affordable exfoliant for oily and/or acne-prone skin types. This should have gone up in the beginning of October but from one unfortunate event to another, it just didn’t feel right to put up a…
Today’s post is all about Stridex Pads Maximum Strength Prior to this red jar, I’d never tried any 2% salicylic acid treatment. Sick right? For someone with oily, acne-prone skin? 😳 I must have been living under the rock. JK, Glycolic & Azelaic acid were doing it for me. Not until some months back in Lockdown, 2020 when I was on…
The long search for a holy-grail moisturizer might have just come to an end. The first time I tried the Missha Near Skin Total Ceramide Cream (about a year ago), I wanted to like it but something about it felt off. It wasn’t working (the way I wanted it to) for my skin so I didn’t bother repurchasing it. Fast…
