I've always been a real sceptic about supplements. I've never really understood the fascination and the science behind it, and, most importantly, if they actually work. There are many types of supplements, each with different benefits. You have gummies, tablets, capsules, powders, and juices... the list is endless. It's an overwhelming experience choosing a supplement you think will work for you. As I said, there are so many brands, and the actual supplement comes in different forms. Sometimes going by word-of-mouth is helpful. So, if it's a word-of-mouth referral you're after, let me tell you about a supplement and skincare brand I've been using lately - You're Looking Well (YLW).
Who is You're Looking Well (YLW)?
You're Looking Well (YLW) is a skincare and supplement brand that focuses on the scientifically proven link between gut health, your skin, and sleep. When making their products, YLW use evidence-based science when choosing the ingredients for the supplements and skincare products. They've looked at what our skin and gut need at either end of the day. It's basically a regime that aims to give your gut and skin the nutrients they need, day and night.
The supplement and skin subscription is trusted by a range of celebrities and, according to YLW -
- 91% saw improvement in their sleep quality.
- 92% agreed their skin feels soft and smoother.
- 86% agreed their skin looks brighter.
- 73% noticed an improvement in their overall well-being.
As well as the stats, one thing that makes You're Looking Well stand out is its packaging. The yellow bottles really make the brand stand out. They do look very pretty sitting on my skincare shelf. I've never seen skincare bottles look as vibrant as this and, even better, they're fully recyclable.
Is the brand vegan and/or cruelty-free?
Yes! YLW is vegan and cruelty-free.
The items I received from You're Looking Well are -
I received YLW's *Discovery Kit. This allowed me the opportunity to try everything at once. This kit included the Day Cream, Night Cream, Day Pill and Night Pill.
YLW Day Cream
This lightweight *day cream aims to hydrate, smooth and strengthen the skin barrier to give you a healthy-looking, radiant complexion. The cream aims to improve moisture retention and has antioxidant protection. This cream has ingredients including pre- and post-biotics, hyaluronic acid and Vitamin-C.
This cream is pregnancy safe, essential oil-free and fragrance-free and is suitable for sensitive skin.
I have used this as my main moisturiser for the last few weeks, and I have to say, it has given my skin a significant glow. It makes my skin feel very hydrated. I've been using this during the colder weather, and it's kept my skin hydrated throughout the day. I like that this cream is very lightweight, and it absorbs well.
YLW Night Cream
This *night cream has anti-ageing benefits that combat visible signs of ageing. This cream contains next-generation bio-retinoid proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The cream aims to strengthen the skin's nightly repair cycle to give the skin a calmer, more balanced appearance the next day.
As with the day cream, it is pregnancy-safe, essential oil-free, fragrance-free and suitable for those with sensitive skin.
Since using this night cream, my skin feels good when I wake up in the mornings. My skin tone feels more even now, and it's a great night cream to use. I've shouted it from the rooftops that using a night cream is important to help your skin rejuvenate overnight. This night cream is the perfect starting point for anyone wanting to incorporate a night cream into their nighttime skincare routine.
YLW Day Pill
This all-in-one *probiotic and multi-vitamin aims to improve energy levels, reduce bloating and improve skin health. The day pill combines zinc, Vitamins B, D and K2 with three probiotic strains to allow a delayed release. This pill also supports gut health and digestion and gives your skin a much brighter look.
I have taken these every morning and, as it's from the discovery kit, I haven't noticed a huge difference. That being said, my gut health has seen a little bit of improvement. Also, if I had the full bottle to use rather than the smaller version, I may have noticed a huge improvement. It's easy to incorporate into your morning routine, and it's a great pill for getting your Vitamin and probiotic intake!
YLW Night Pill
This science-led *night capsule aims to improve sleep quality and overnight skin repair. The pill contains BeTheanine and magnesium bisglycinate, both of which aid in calming the mind before helping you drift off into a deep sleep. The antioxidants in this pill help your skin recover from pollution, stress and UV exposure that's accumulated throughout the day.
I have taken these every night, and I have noticed a marked improvement in my overall sleep quality. I wake up feeling more rested, restored and far less groggy. It's such a lovely feeling to wake up feeling refreshed at the start of a new day. The YLW Night Pill has certainly helped with that since I've started taking them!
Let's do a quick rundown of YLW
Packaging
I've already said that the packaging is so aesthetically pleasing. And I'm happy to repeat myself on that. The packaging is recyclable, and it genuinely looks lovely sat on my bedroom shelf.

But you can save money on the Regime by signing up for a subscription, which will cost £127 (for 30 days or £297.50 for 90 days).

To sum up...
You're Looking Well is a fantastic skincare and supplement brand. The quality of the packaging is fantastic, and it's so pleasing to the eye. I love all of these items, but I think my firm favourite has to be the Night Cream. I feel my skin gets some decent nourishment at night, and my skin feels amazing when I wake up in the morning.
I think if I had more supplements, I would definitely notice a bigger difference than what I have, but with what I have taken so far, I have noticed an improvement, especially with taking the Night Pill.
I like that this brand offers a subscription and that they've made it easy to amend and/or cancel should you need to.
It is pricey, but as long as you're consistent with the whole programme and using the products as you should, it's worth the investment.

DeleteNice. Being cruelty-free is a huge selling point for me. I saw a special over a decade ago on animal testing, and it blew my mind. Depressed me, too. Love this.
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine what animals go through when being put through testing for products. I love brands that are cruelty-free also!
DeleteI'm not familiar with this skincare brand. I'm intrigued by the creams and might like to try them one day.

ReplyDeleteIt's great that this brand covers all areas relating to the gut and skin! I'm sure the Night Pills would help you in regards to your sleep Samantha!
DeleteThose yellow bottles would definitely brighten up my morning routine. Starting with a discovery kit is a clever way to test the gut health connection without committing to full sizes. I like that everything is recyclable.
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous packaging isn't it Kat?! Exactly, starting with the Discovery Kit allows you to try the products without committing to a subscription!
DeleteMy husband takes magnesium supplements every night and they've massively helped his sleep. So really interesting to see magnesium is in these night tablets as well. Glad you saw a change in your sleep x
ReplyDeleteThat's great that magnesium supplements have helped your husband sleep! I'm sure these Night Pills would help him too (should he want to try something new!) x
DeleteThis is a brand I have never come across before , but I am always looking for new products to test out , will definitely add them to my list , also loving the packaging! - Kira
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you would love this brand Kira!
DeleteI really didn't think your skin had anything to do with your gut health! What an interesting brand.
ReplyDeleteYeah there is a link between it all, which is fascinating!
DeleteThose stats are very impressive and naturally celebrity endorsements can go a long way to making a brand. I'd love to give the day and night creams a go, they sound great!
ReplyDeleteI agree Melanie, celebrity endorsements can really help a brand gain a bigger audience! I'm sure you would love both of these creams, they've worked so well for my skin!
DeleteThis seems like an interesting brand, and I like that it's also cruelty-free. I've not tried any of these. I always like the idea of a discovery kit to sample items properly.

The Discovery Kit is a great opportunity for you to try the products without commiting to buying the full-sized versions!
DeleteI've been curious about the gut-skin connection for a while, and it's great to see a brand actually building their entire product line around that science. The Night Pill sounds particularly interesting — magnesium bisglycinate is well-researched for sleep quality. Thanks for the honest breakdown of the Discovery Kit; it's the perfect low-commitment way to test whether the supplements make a real difference before going all-in on a subscription.
ReplyDeleteLandman
It is a fascinating link between skin and gut health, and YLW have really honed in on that. They've produced these products to help both, which is fantastic!
