I try to stay grounded in my actual experience and not what a brand says the product should be. I use things long enough to see real patterns not just first impressions and I pay attention to both what works and what doesn’t. If something disappoints me I explain why in practical terms instead of just writing it off.I also separate personal preference from performance. I’m clear when something didn’t suit my skin or routine versus when there’s a genuine issue with the formula or design. That way people can decide for themselves whether it might still work for them.Being constructive matters to me so I always point out who a product would be good for even if it wasn’t right for me. Honest reviews aren’t about tearing things down they’re about giving useful context so someone can make a better choice.

I like to consider whether a product is effective, has good value for money, clean ingredients, and the effects with long-term use.
