Lightweight moisturiser for refreshed skin

I was lucky enough to be selected in the trial team for this product alongside the Radiant Energy Lotion. The first thing I noticed about this product was the packaging. As I have also noticed with other Estee Lauder products is that while the jar is quite big, there is a lot of plastic. This creates an illusion that there may be a lot of product inside but it actually doesn't hold a lot which is disappointing for the price tag. I used this product as a moisturiser after using the energy lotion as a toner. It had quite a thin, watery consistency which I was expecting given it uses the word "water" in the description. It glides on really easily and I only needed to use a small amount to cover my whole face. It has a very pleasant, sweet scent and feels gentle on the skin. It absorbs well, leaving the skin well moisturised. I can't say I noticed my skin looking any more radiant than usual, but I do think this product is really nice as a light day cream. I am looking forward to seeing if there are any long term benefits from using this product.

Disappointed

This gel emulsion was great in the morning as it was light weighted. But the great thing of this product stopped there. It was too sticky and I felt like my skin didn’t absorb it thoroughly but rather the gel emulsion was being a “barrier” between my skin and the product thereafter (often being my sunscreen). This gel emulsion; though; somehow was a great primer (in a way) for my face.

After giving this product 5 nights(!) I decided that this was definitely not for PM. Similar to lotion, you can’t layer this for spots where you want extra moisture. It doesn’t even feel all “absorbed” into my skin which should be really easy for gel type lotions anyways.

Tips: Use this at the last step of your skincare regime in the morning (right before the sunscreen) and because it's sticky and doesn't get absorbed into your skin, this somehow becomes a good primer...

Nice skin product

This face gel is super amazing and makes my skin feel so soft. It keeps my face well moisturised throughout the day. A little bit goes a long way so it is very good in the way that it lasts a long time. It makes my skin feel fresh and would definitely use it again.

Beautiful product but not for oily skin

This product is a beautiful, thick creamy product that smells divine. It smells like fresh pomegranate. A little goes a very long way so it would last a long time. It feels lovely and luxurious when applied to the skin. I have oily skin that's prone to nasty breakouts and unfortunately my skin just did not like this formula. I found that my skin became greasy when using this and started to break out. I was definitely radiant, so much so that I was very shiney and my makeup broke up. I stopped use and gave it to a friend with normal skin and she loved it, it definitely gave her a lovely dewy glow when used along with the Energy Lotion as a duo.

Tips: I would steer clear of this one if you have oily skin like me but if you have normal to dry skin and suffer dull skin it's a beautiful product that definitely gives a radiant glow.

A little goes a long way

Firstly, love the packaging the resembles the pomegranate ingredient. It isn't cheap feeling. I would say the consistency is more of a cream than a gel though. I used this after the lotion and a little product definitely goes a long way. I would apply am and pm and my skin in the morning would feel very soft and look glowy. I would say the product definitely works wonders and I will continue to use in hand with the lotion. I suffer with dry skin on my nose and although it's still there it's definitely better. It also smells very subtlety fruity which is an added bonus!

Thick and Luxurious

I have not had much experience with Estee Lauder, but was excited to try some more products - especially skin care products.

This product is a generous size, and will last a long time. A little goes a long way so I am sure I will still be using this product for a while longer.

The consistency of the gel is quite thick, so you don't need a lot. When I first started with this product I used too much and my skin felt a little weighed down. It has a nice citrus smell which helps in creating a luxurious experience when using this gel.

This gel has helped in hydrating my skin. However I have noticed some minor breakouts at an unusual rate. This could be related to this product, or could just be a coincidence. I would definitely recommend this product for someone with dry skin, as this heavy duty product with boost that soothing hydration.

I have been pleasantly surprised but wouldn't rush to purchase this myself.

Radiant Energy Water Gel Creme

The packaging for this product is quite nice, and you get a decent amount for the price. The texture is quite thick, but it applies so nicely to the skin. The scent is very fresh, and it definitely leaves the skin feeling hydrated.

I personally found that it made my makeup go very oily quite quickly after applying it, so I tended to just use it before bed and used a different moisturiser before makeup.

I definitely found an improvement in my skin after using this, and it really felt a lot more hydrated. It's a shame that it has been discontinued, as I would most definitely recommend this product.

Super hydration!

I was really pleased to get to review the Nutritious Radiant Energy Water Gel Creme. My skin is dry so I'm always looking for ways to combat that.

The consistency, like the names says, is a combination of a cream and a gel, I really enjoy using this product, it instantly feels hydrating and feels like you're giving your skin a bit of a treat. After a big night out (and having to wash my face with motel shampoo) my skin was feeling tight and dehydrated, this instantly picked my skin up and made me feel alive again! It wears well underneath foundation, gives the skin a nice base and isnt greasy at all. The effects are quite long-lasting, I can apply this at night and not feel super dry in the morning.

The packaging is quite luxe looking as to be expected from Estee, the cream has a slight sort of citrus scent which I enjoyed and didnt find to be irritating at all either. It is priced a bit higher than what I would usually buy, and after 2 weeks I have used about a third of the product.

Tips: I used this product alongside the Radiant Vitality Energy Lotion.

Good, but not great

I think what I really loved the most about this product was that it looks exactly how it's described. Gel emulsion. It's super lightweight in terms of consistency - it truly does feel like what you'd imagine a gel emulsion to be. It smells so nice, like a faint, fruity, slightly artificial, fresh, pomegranate scent, but not the nauseating, overly-fake kind. And it sinks SO well into the skin! Once it dries down it's not sticky or goopy, your skin just feels smooth and hydrated.

The packaging itself is quite a sturdy plastic casing which looks deceptively like glass. I love how the lid is reflective and acts as a compact mirror, so if you're ever using this on the go and forget your hand mirror then this can double up as one. It's a screw-on lid which I don't particularly like, only because of the ease of access - I would rather have had it just pop off. Onto the inside, upon unscrewing the lid, you'll open to find a flat-top cover with a kind of tongue flap (HA). I actually really like this as it's definitely more hygienic and you can basically use the underside of the lid as a spatula.

In terms of what it proclaims to do, I'm not sure how much it detoxified my skin. Generally, my skin looked about the same after nearly 2 weeks of use, except sadly I did manage to get a smattering of closed comedones around the top of my brows and left temple, and random milia popping up especially around the sides of nostrils. Nothing hella major, but enough to be bummed about since my skin (using my usual skincare routine) is relatively acne-free. Other than those areas, the rest of my face stayed pretty much clear, and smooth - though I did notice my forehead get quite oily by the end of the day.

Overall, would I use it again? Yes. But I'd probably incorporate my other usual skincare products too. Would I go out to actually re-purchase this? It's a no from me. Only because it's ridiculously expensive, and there are plenty more products out there that are infinitely cheaper and effective.

Tips: use the inner lid as a spatula!

Super Lightweight !

To start off, my skin is relatively (imo) normal and only really occasionally has the dry patch or two. So, those two patches are my current pests. I'm happy to say that after using this for two weeks in conjunction with the Lotion Fresh Moist, it has actually disappeared! I have also noticed that my skin POSSIBLY may be more 'bouncy' and soft (especially right after application!!) from using this (and the lotion) morning and night for the past two weeks... I really enjoyed using this! I loved the light water gel creme texture of this product. Prior to this, I preferred using another similar product that was also similar in consistency. I was actually afraid that I'd have trouble writing the review but... truthfully, I loved everything about it! Although I can only really confidently tell you that it definitely does one of the three claims, I did also love the super fruity scent, texture and the pretty quick absorption. If you were only using the water gel creme, you'd probably be ok and don't have to wait probably half a minute before using the next step. That was probably the only concern, although I thought it was something they said (fast absorping) but, actually no so, just something to be aware of. The product is easy to use and smells amazing. I loved it. this product may not be suitable for people who don't enjoy heavy scents in their skincare. Although, I found the scent to be light but at the same time it is most definitely there when applying the product.

Tips: Apply with fingers and about a quick swipe with a finger or two is enough for each application (i.e. cheek, forehead, chin etc)
