Cinch Skin || FACE CHEAT(ER) + FACE IT CLEANSER || #RivetReview

Cinch started with one product, Face Cheat, a spray moisturiser that took the place of multiple products, including a primer, illuminator, and powerful antioxidant treatment. The all in one formula was an innovative take on a quick and easy beauty routine for those who are rushed, however, it wasn't suitable for my skin type. You can read my full review here.

Since giving my feedback and requesting a product better suited to dry skin, in 2017, Cinch expanded the range with two new products that they kindly sent out to me; Face Cheat(er), a cream version of the original spray, and Face It, a cleansing micellar water. I've finally given them a go and here's what's going down!

Ultraceuticals Ultra C10+ Firming Serum || #RivetReview

The brainchild of Dr. Geoffrey Heber, of Heber Davis Skin Clinic Broadway, started out as a project in a garage that grew to be one of the most popular and respected cosmeceutical lines in Australia. Ultraceuticals is effective skincare for all types and conditions.

I had attended a media event for Ultraceuticals back when I was still studying to be a beauty therapist and only dreaming about becoming a dermal clinician, where was gifted the C10+ Firming Serum. I finally cracked it open and I have regrets not doing it sooner.

Mesoestetic AOX Ferulic & Genesis Device Launch || Rivet Licker

My readers should already know that I am a cosmeceutical nerd. I am studying medicinal chemistry to enter the pharmaceutical and personal care formulation industries, with a niche around dermatology and aesthetic medicine. I'm only at the beginning of my degree, but making contacts in the industry is essential to my learning.

Mesoestetic Pharma Group is a Barcelona based biotechnology laboratory focusing on researching and developing active skincare for use by professionals and at home ranges to complement in-clinic treatments. For the first time, they held a media event here held by distributor Advanced Cosmeceuticals.
