No improvement over results with my (cheaper) existing skincare products, 14 Jun. 2016

This is a nice moisturiser to use with a lovely floral scent. It comes in a pump action container which looks smart but, for reasons unknown, seems to work intermittently - every couple of days the pump doesn't dispense until I have pumped it furiously for a few minutes and given it a good shake. I am sure the dispenser is more hygienic than a screw top jar but when it doesn't work reliably and you struggle to get at the contents it is a pain.The moisturiser is a light cream which is easily absorbed without any greasy residue. I can't say that it has improved my skin or plumped it up: my usual moisturiser makes my skin feel better. I have sensitive skin and in the past have had problems with hyaluronic products which may perhaps explain it - this product hasn't caused a reaction as such. Purely on the basis that I prefer my current product and it costs about half the price, I can't see me buying this product in future.

Daft name - decent moisturiser, 30 May 2016

This product absolutely delivers on the moisturisation front, leaving skin very well hydrated with a lovely fresh glow. There's a bit of a tingle when first applied and also a very slightly tacky feeling, but it dries off to a non-sticky finish within about 5-10 minutes. I like the packaging - a pink pump container which is ideal for travel. Biggest negative for me though is the fragrance - it's described as subtle peach and rose, but I found it quite strong and more fruity/medicinal, a bit like cough syrup. Strong enough to put me off using the product regularly if I'm honest.

I recently tried the Bee Venon moisturiser from Rodial too and much preferred that - partly due to the more noticeable anti-ageing effects and partly due to the much more palatable clean white scent. I should acknowledge that the two products are in completely different price brackets though so apologies if your purse can't stretch to the Bee Venom line - I still thought it worth a heads-up just in...

Pump broke., 24 May 2016

I think the packaging is nice, although not as luxurious as some of the top end brands (the bottle is plastic, but feels nice), and I love the colour. The moisturiser is liquid rather than a thick cream and absorbs quickly - it feels light on the skin and make-up can be applied immediately with no bobbling. I don't feel a tingle. I don't notice a tightening of the skin, but it does look healthier and brighter, with a slight sheen / glow. I don't see any plumping effect. I like having the sun protection built in to my moisturiser. No greasiness. All in all, very nice. I have downgraded this to two stars as although I like the product, the pump broke, meaning I can't access the product - needs better packaging at the price.
