Is your moisturiser too heavy for summer?

We've spoken quite a lot about changing your products to best compliment your skin and tend to it's needs as the seasons change.

Your moisturiser is no different.  In the Winter you're likely to need a more intense product and if you're suffering from dry flakes, you'll want a heavier moisturiser like a cream.  In the Summer you might find that your regular moisturiser is too heavy and leaves your face feeling greasy to touch. 

So what's a girl to do?  Well we've spoken a lot about the ingredient of the year, the highly hydrating hyaluronic acid which works well in gel formulas.  Gel formulas are lighter than lotions, easily absorbed and don't leave a sticky or greasy film behind.

Or you could try adding a serum to your routine.  Serums penetrate deeper than lotions or creams and can deliver active ingredients where they're needed.

Well our latest trial product really does seem to be the best of both worlds!

We're putting Azurlis Hydrating Face & Neck Gel to the test.  With yeast extracted hyaluronic acid, as well as jojoba and flax seed oils, this is the ideal gel serum for thirsty skin. This is a gel serum that is firming and deeply moisturising. 

This gel is a great alternative to a cream based moisturiser, but for super dry skin you can use it as a hydration booster before you use your regular day cream and lock in moisture. Organic licorice and edelweiss extracts add natural skin lightening properties to this product to help reduce dark spots and blemishes.

We're looking for one trial team to put this lucious gel to the test, so if it sounds like something you could benefit from why not tell us why below.  Does your moisturiser feel too heavy in the warmer weather and are you looking for an alternative?  Or maybe you're looking to add a hydration boost to your skin with a new serum?

Get chatting below, we might just send you one to trial!
