I guess clinique is popular here~~and is ok, but dont use the spf 30 facial cream, very dry.....

yves rocher I have tried b4, for me it doesnt work so well, may be because of diff skin type...

biotherm have not tried b4

As a Finn, I naturally need to promote the Finnish brand "Lumene" what was already mentioned in the thred.

Lumene is a 40 year old Finnish brand, tested in Arctic conditions. Lumene is mostly using atural arctic ingredients, like cloudberry. Personally it's also very important that Lumene does not use animal testing.

Brand has now started the promotion to the US markets as well:
Lumene first time in Vogue:

Yes, and for some odd reason Lumene products (Made in Espoo) are cheaper is CVS than they are in Prisma. Go figure that one out!!!

And can I ask everybody here what do you think as "reasonable price" that ppl will spend on skin care in Finland:) ? Because I can see that some brands here are actually very good price like Garnier (cant you believe is even cheaper than in Hong Kong?), Simple, Lumene is not cheap, but still cheaper than others and is good brand.
