    I did not want to like Dr. Sturm products, but it was the best serum I have ever used. I noticed immediate moisturizing and calming effects on my dry, rosacea skin ( and I have tried many, many serums in different price ranges.)

      Hi, I’m actually an Aesthetician at a Sturm spa. And I felt the same years ago. I just generally don’t want people to feel guilty or obligated to spend a lot on skincare. And I know good skincare can be made affordable! But, the skin transformations and the beautiful but not heavy glow people leave w after a facial and the long term changes I see in clients skin who use the products, is amazing! There are some really unique ingredients in STURM’s products that I think are worth it if you can afford it, particularly if you have certain skincare needs

      I can understand! Their serums are where the brand shines IMO. FYI Net-a-porter does beauty kits with strum serums, right now they have one with a full sized calming serum and a bunch of other products and the entire cost of the kit is half of the price of the calming serum alone (yes! Seriously!) If you keep your eye out, they do them several times a year and thats where I get my sturm products: at a discount and with a bunch of free full sized products as well!

    The benefits of absorption time (absorbing about a minute faster) and having a nicer texture are both such short term payoffs that hardly seem worth SUCH an extreme price gap, just my opinion

    Thank you so much for your review. You are definitely a box of information and I 100% trust the content you provide. I’ve tried this serum in a sample several times and I have to say it may be worth me putting away 100$ per check to purchase this product. I’ve read different reviewers where it was expressed there was no actual change or performance but that is not the experience for me. I’ve wore this serum to work for 2 weeks and I was being told that I look young and in my 20s. I’m in my 30s and by the way I don’t not wear any make up. I wear a tinted 100% mineral sunscreen. This serum definitely makes my face feel hydrated, plump and add a little glow. For me it is worth the heavy price Tag. However I don’t know if this product is just as good in the cold and winter months when the air is quite dry. Overall thanks for the amazing review. I love reviews like this from others brands. ❤

    Hi, great video! I am hoping to change my current Hyaluronic acid serum (it’s the plump filler by Dior) for something more skin friendly. However I bumped in your video as I was willing to try the ordinary and what you say about the “film” it leaves doesn’t happen to me with the Dior one (or a more intense 1 month treatment with Hyaluronic and peptides) so should I skip this one? The reason I want to change is not hydration rather than fine lines, the one from Dior doesn’t do much against... Would you recommend any of the two for VERY sensitive combination skin?

    • @KatarinaLuise
      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому

      This is a great question! I haven't used any of the products from the Dior skincare range. My favourite brand for sensitive skin is Votary, they have an absolutely insane super seed range which may not be exactly what you are looking for because they are oil based and not water based products but I have found that a gentle and nourishing approach wins the game in the long run when it comes to skincare so it could be worth looking into for your skincare routine. Both of these products could be fine for sensitive combo skin. If you have a Sturm counter nearby, I would recommend trying to visit in person whenever you get a chance in the future because they offer samples of their products, and I highly recommend trying products before investing in them! HA is a great product if you live in a humid place, but a bit tricky in the winter or if you live in a dry place.

    • @KatarinaLuise
      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому +1

      I have heard a lot of hype about it too! It isn't a hyaluronic acid though, it is a chemical exfoliant with lactic, malic, salicylic, phytic, and citric acid. So you would use this product a few times per week before bed, whereas you could use a hyaluronic acid every day. For me, the p50 is a really intense product I would use to clear up a skin concern, otherwise I wouldn't use it myself since it is so powerful and I don't think normal and healthy skin really needs such a tough product!

    However, this brought up a different question... I noticed that Dr Barbara Sturm’s HLA for Darker Skintones does contain citric acid.. what are your thoughts on that?

    • @KatarinaLuise
      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому

      Thanks so much! So glad it was useful! That is actually a REALLY good question. I have been seeing brands doing different serums and products for darker skin tones, and I have to admit I don't really know why the formulation needs to be different so it was something I wanted to look into myself. As for Citric Acid, this is an ingredient I do not like in skincare products personally. I think it's an irritant to many skin types and there are less irritating ways to balance the pH of a product. It's not a dealbreaker for me in low quantities, but I prefer products which don't have it!

    I've been using The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid for a while and recently switched to TO Buffet instead - which I think is more or less the same but has peptides in.
    So would you say Dr Sebagh's Serum Repair sits somewhere between TO and Dr Barbara Sturm?
    Would you layer a Niacinamide serum on top of an HA serum or just not use them together?
    Really enjoyed this videos and am loving your channel! :)

    • @KatarinaLuise
      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому +1

      Hi! Thanks so much! So kind of you to say :) I actually prefer the buffet as well, I think it's my favourite product from the Ordinary which I have tried so far!
      The Repair Serum is a cult favourite and really popular, my honest opinion is that it hydrates well but it is a bit on the thicker side and I prefer my HA serums on the lighter side. My favourites at the mid price point range are the Grown Alchemist one and the Skin Regimen (Davines skincare range) one. They are both really awesome!
      Niancinamide has gotten a bad reputation over the years but very new research has come out that it's much less reactive than previously thought! It is fine to layer, I would put the lightest serum underneath. Niancinamide is usually bundled with more occludent products, so it likely should go after the HA, but depends on the product! Occulents block the HA from absorbing, so you can go by feeling and layer the lighter products under the heavier ones. With serums it's also important to give them a couple of minutes to sink in (at least 5) or they can interact with each other or block each other. If for whatever reason you feel like the serums aren't behaving well together, you can try splitting them up on different days or do one in the morning and the other in the evening :)
      Hope that helps!

      @@KatarinaLuise Hi Kat! Following on from this, I ended up purchasing the Dr Sebagh HA serum (he had 30% off!) and sometimes I layer this with TO Buffet in order to get those peptides! This is working well for me and I also continue to use my prescribed Differin/Adapalene.
      Just a quick question that I'd love your opinion on. I've heard a few Dermos on here talking about trans-epidermal water loss. After cleansing, I apply hyaluronic acid serums to damp skin and then once dried I apply Differin. After applying Differin I like to wait about 10 minutes before applying moisturiser and an occlusive. How long does it roughly take before water starts to evaporate from the skin? Naturally, I would want to apply moisturiser straight after the HA but I need time to allow the Differin to absorb! I suppose it depends on how much humidity is in the air, or lack thereof??

    All the Barbara Sturm haters who slam her products because of pricing, need to watch this video. Nothing annoys me more than people who just simply compare Barbara Sturm to The Ordinary based on their own misinformation of ONE ingredient. You explained it well! Her products are very well-formulated I agree, as I have tried almost everything in her line and love 80% of them. They're very effective on my skin and every ingredient serves a purpose. If you have the budget, go to town with your spending and try her products. If you're concerned about spending that much, there is nothing that I can say that will justify the exorbitant prices. Because I can't and nobody can. Hahahaha..

If someone said they are overpriced I can agree with that. If someone said but they work really well I can also agree with that! So it depends on your personal budget and preferences!

    • @KatarinaLuise
      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому

      No it should be fine! Although any ingredient can be an irritant, the only common irritant in it is the citric acid which is in many skincare products. If you are using it without irritability, it should be a great product for you! Hope you are loving it!

    • @KatarinaLuise
      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому

      Yes you can! The Hyaluronic serum would go first since it is water based and then the Sunday Riley luna would go next because it is oil based! It's important when layering serums to give them a couple minutes (at least 5) to sink in properly so that they don't block each other from absorbing or interfering with each other :)

      @KatarinaLuise  4 роки тому +1

      Hi! That's exactly right! It isn't the only way to balance the pH of a product and it s quite irritating though, so I never like to see it as an ingredient. I am confused by the addition to this particular HA serum since most don't have it, and this one is relatively basic (compared to normal skin pH) even with the citric acid. I didn't really explain it well in the video and glossed over it, sorry for any confusion! I will be more clear in the future!

      @KatarinaLuise  5 років тому

      Great question! Serums are, unfortunately, quite expensive products due to the high concentrations of active ingredients. Of everything I have tried under 100 USD, I think the Ordinary is actually the best option. It performs really well for it's price point and is really hard to beat. If you are willing to splurge, the best product around 100 USD is the Skin regimen one, which is the one I am using right now (skinregimen.com/products/skin-regimen-1-85-ha-booster) it's 115 USD, but it outperforms more expensive serums in my opinion!

      I do not recommend a super concentrated HA for super dry skin unless you live in a super humid climate. I have always struggled with HA since I live in a really dry place. My best tips are to use it after a shower when the air is really wet as that will bind to the product and help hydrate your skin best. I also mist quite heavily to make sure it has a lot to grab onto!

    I discovered your videos,great informations!
    I have been using La Mer since 2001,saved my skin after a severe rosacea episode(blood poisening...).
    Internal treatment yes,but no dermatogist could suggest an adequate skincare.
    Since then,I stick to la Mer.
    With lockdown,stress etc;,I discovered Dr B Sturm,having a rosacea episode again,more like inflammation...
    My question...Dr Sturm serums are really good.Can I mix them with la Mer?
    As a serum,I still find Advanced Night Repair(Lauder) very effective,usin it as a moisturising serum,and soothing redness.
    I am 58 years old,sensitive skin,and I give priority to skincare!

I personally think that the serums are where the STURM line shines, and can definitely combine them with the la mer cream! And yes I am on instragram I will check it is properly linked on my about page, but I can warn you its mostly personal stuff and not as much skincare :P

    Ahhh yes. I haven't tried the Dr Barbara Sturm, it's definitely out of my price range, but I think more expensive serums are so totally worth it. Hyaluronic acid is aaaaalways in my skincare routine. I don't love this TO serum but actually liked the marine hyaluronics even less 😣 it was so watery and I felt like it has no effect whatsoever on my skin and it definitely didn't feel any more plump at all. Obviously costs nothing to try it haha! But their "Buffet" serum I seriously hated 😂
    I love that you mention the importance of skin type, weather and such in relation to hyaluronic acid because I definitely feel like it's misused a lot!
    I have also read *SO* much conflicting information on hyaluronic acid molecular weight - anything from certain weight causing scarring to the same weight healing scarring wut?!?! I find it seriously confusing 😫🤯
    Loved the video as always, I think it's so great that you're giving reasons for why an expensive product is better, backed up by facts, and not just "yes hello I'm 16 and my skin will look glowy even if I dragged it through mud and gravel" 😂 UA-cam seems to be a breeding ground for these people and I am so jealous of their skin 😂

      Thanks so much for such a lovely and thoughtful comment as always! I always appreciate what you have to add :) Interesting about the ordinary serums. To be honest I had to fight really hard to even get the ordinary products and.... I didn't either like or dislike any of them. I always recommend it as a budget product since the formulas tend to be relatively simple and they are a great way to "test" products before investing in them. I do want to try the marine hyaluronics, so I can see if it really is a better product as I expect it to be! I don't believe that hyaluronic acid causes scarring at any size if used properly, haven't read anything to back up these theories. Could be the additives to these products which are irritating people, or they could be using them wrong, or it could just not agree with them. As I mentioned, HA is not a product I get along the best with since it's not really the best for my skin type. I actually prefer other, more gentle humectants over HA.
      I honestly cannot explain how good this product is--it really is epensive but worth the hype. the other HA serums in my collection aren't cheap either (111skin, dr. sebagh, etc) but this one really is the best and worth the hype. SO good!
