Brand Dr. Konopka is owned by the Estonian company Eurobiolab. The doctor himself in history really existed. He released his series of skincare cosmetics in the 30s of the twentieth century.
A little bit about the brand
In 1931, Dr. Konopka opened a pharmacy, and after 3 years he established sales outside his city. All his life, the doctor conducted research in the field of medicinal herbs, created unique products. In 1938, he published a book of beauty recipes with his own money, but she did not receive wide public support. In 2013, the Eurobiolab company decides to rectify the existing injustice and arranges the release of cosmetics according to the recipes of the book, but using modern technologies. So the brand got its name.
All brand products have certificates of quality and safety. It is 100% made from natural ingredients. The basis of cosmetics used natural oils and herbal ingredients. The composition does not contain parabens, artificial perfumes and animal products. Cosmetics suitable for vegans. The products themselves are also not tested on animals. Among the line of cosmetic products brand Dr. Konopka's secrete means for cleansing, care, nutrition, moisturizing the skin and hair, including for cosmetic procedures.
It is interesting to note that the brand also takes care of oral health. Here you can find toothpaste and rinse aid.
Facial Care
The line contains creams, masks, scrubs, balms, tonics, oils and essences. There are remedies for young skin as well as fighting against the appearance of wrinkles. Creams have a pleasant texture, some in consistency resemble melted butter or soufflé.At the same time, the products are completely non-greasy, perfectly absorbed and do not form a sticky film. A few minutes after application, you can apply a tonal base. Emollient and nourishing cream is great for Russian winters. After it, the skin is velvety, practically does not wind off and does not peel off.
Matting essence for the face is more like a cream. She gets the dropper, but hard, because it is thick. Users note that the pump would be more appropriate and convenient. Easy to apply, absorb for a couple of minutes. It does not leave a feeling of tightness, decorative cosmetics on top fit well. But not suitable for all skin types.
Negative reviews were awarded the brand tonic. On the one hand, the Russian-language translation indicates that it is a tonic, English-language - toner. These are completely two different cosmetics. In fact tonic from Dr. Konopka's is a toner. It has a tangible caring effect, perfectly tones and moisturizes.
But peeling for the skin liked everyone. It contains 4 acids (lactic, salicylic, glycolic and citric) and bleaching substances. The skin is exfoliated delicately, not injured, at the same time moisturized and smoothed. At the same time, users noted that if overexposed peeling on the face, it does not leave a burn or redness. A warming scrub has also proven itself. It contains crushed shell of apricot kernel, but does not scratch the skin at all. The exfoliation is extremely gentle, leaving a feeling of smooth and clean skin.
Hair care products
Users note a rather thick consistency in shampoos. They foam well, rinse well with water and leave no residue on the hair. Balms are more dense, but are spent sparingly. Hair masks have a stronger effect. In composition, they almost duplicate balms, and users did not feel a particularly noticeable difference.
There is also a serum against hair loss. It does not flow, it is well absorbed, but the effect will be noticeable only after a month with regular use. But the anti-dandruff serum disappointed many buyers.
It undoubtedly had a positive effect on the scalp, soothing irritation, but did not relieve dandruff. The brand also has a serum to add volume. It is well absorbed, does not make heavier and does not pollute hair roots. Unfortunately, It was not possible to get the promised volume, but the hair grew noticeably faster.
Among the shortcomings, the absence of dispensers on shampoos and balms is distinguished, as a result of which it is not always convenient to extract the product, it is necessary to shake the jar. Creams lack protective membranes. But the product itself is always in the package a lot. The generosity of the Eurobiolab company was noted by all customers. To the merits of Dr. Konopka's include affordable prices and economical consumption.
Cosmetics can be easily purchased in almost every pharmacy chain, and the funds themselves will last for a long time.
