Richly hydrating, a salve to my Winter skin

My skin can be super dry, but it also reacts and breaks out if Moisturisers are too rich, it can from one extreme to the other. This Winter, my skin has been playing havoc, even with scrubs I have not been able to get rid of the dry patches and dullness. I work in a school, so I can be inside with all the heaters blaring, or outside in the cold, wind and sun.

The consistency of kōtia Hydrating Day Cream is thick and creamy, it has a light plain scent to it, not overwhelming which is nice. It comes in a small tub, but a little does go a long way. I was surprised at how quickly this absorbed into my skin, usually for my skin even when dry, thick rich creams take a long time to penetrate and they leave my skin a bit oily, it can be annoying when trying to apply makeup on top of this. But, this Day Cream has not done that.

I have been using this for 7 days now, the dry patches are all gone, my skin looks like it has a bit more life to it. No more scrubs! It does last all day, at night when I am removing my makeup, I can still feel the cream working on my skin. I have also started using this cream at night after my shower, not as much as what I would use during the day, but in the morning my skin feels lovely! I am really keen to try out the Night Cream now if this is what the Day Cream does :-)

I am hooked on kōtia Hydrating Day Cream now, so I went to check the price - $69 - which I think is a bit on the expensive side for the size of the tub, it seems like they have paid more for the thick packaging (which does look nice, the lid is also secure so no spills), however in saying this, for what it has done for my skin I am willing to pay that, and even after 7 days not much has gone.

Overall, I would recommend this product for anyone who has skin like mine especially skin tormented by this Winter, or anyone who needs a thick penetrating cream without all the mess and oil residue.

Thank you Beauty Review for selecting me for this trial xoxo

Tips: Use immediately after your shower you will get the best absorption, that way by the time you are ready to continue your facial routine (makeup etc) it will be nicely settled in to your skin :-)

Love it!

I had no i-deer I could love a day cream so much. Seriously this is like the best cream I've used. And I've tried a lot!

I wish it wasn't so pricey - 69$ is a big ouch for the wallet, so I won't lie - I'll be holding out for specials.

This is a very rich cream, but for something so thick, it's not greasy or sticky. Once absorbed it makes my skin feel so soft.

I think my skin has improved so much since trying this product, the most obvious impact being how glowy and radiant my skin is. Even without make up on my skin looks healthy and dewy. It makes me feel good about myself!

This is deer friendly and I love that. I also like the packaging.

All up a fantastic product, that will become a regular splurge for me.

One word for it "WOW"

I am so glad that I got picked up for this trial and found such an amazing product for my skin. I am totally in love with kōtia Hydrating Day Cream SPF 15. My skin becomes extremely dry and itchy in winters, specially my neck area. This is also because of eczema and that's the reason very few day creams suit my condition. kōtia Hydrating Day Cream comes in a nice jar which I loved the most because some thick creams are so difficult to squeeze out from the tube when they are near to be finished and so much of the product is wasted. It is so luxurious and soft in application. I take little quantity with my fingers and apply through out my face and neck. Good thing is that it is rich but absorbs very quickly, leaving a fresh looking and glowing skin. I don't have to re-apply moisturiser after sometime as my skin does not feel itchy the whole day long and does not dry out. I like the light fragrance of this cream. This cream surely does what it says and I will continue to use it.

The Key To Beautiful Skin Us Moisture My Deer

The thought of deer milk made me a bit hesitant to be honest.. but my after using it, my skin looks so glowing, fresh and hydrated! It is a beautiful thick velvety cream - reminds me of a night cream - it glides on smoothly and doesn’t leave a heavy oily feeling. It has made the skin appear plumper and I have noticed a slight decrease in fine lines after only a week so I’m excited to see what results long term use can achieve. It doesn’t have a strong fragrance which is really nice. Applying makeup after using this moisturiser is so easy and fast the make up just glides on. I have used this cream morning and night as part of my beauty regime and it’s definitely going to be a staple from now on. I did look at the shops for it and it’s a bit pricey but you don’t need to use much at all as a small amount goes a long way. Seriously using it twice a day for a week hasn’t even made a dent in my pottle. I can’t recommend this moisturiser enough. I’m in love.

Tips: Only use a small amount as a little goes a long way.

Kõtia Hydrating Day Cream SPF15

This moisturiser comes in a lovely brown plastic jar with a matte finish with the words Kõtia Hydrating Day Cream SPF15 New Zealand Deer Milk. I must admit I was intrigued. The cream is a thick creamy consistency. The fragrance of the cream is a little unusual and strong but I think I may be getting used to it and it makes me smell fresh for most of the day. I have dry patches on parts of my face and after the week of using I have noticed a bit of an improvement. My skin feels more hydrated and a little firmer too. I would recommend this product for anyone with dry skin needing that little extra TLC with the added advantage of a sunscreen.

Tips: This cream costs a fair bit more than I would usually spend on a moisturiser so applying only as much as you need is recommended.

The perfectly balanced day cream!

I was intrigued by this day cream due to the deer milk and I have to say I was extremely pleased with it. Not only does your skin feel hydrated and soft but the cream absorbs into the skin quickly without leaving you feeling like you have a film on your skin.

The cream has a smooth consistency and not too thick or running so when you put it on it goes where it should on your skin, it has a very soft and subtle smell so you don't really smell it when you put it on which is great. Even hours later after putting on the my skin still feels soft and hydrated which I loved, its not heavy on the skin or make you feel like you have a coat of something on, my skin just feels amazing and well looked after.

After using this cream for a week my skin feels healthier, softer and hydrated, I will be honest I though my last cream was great but this one lets you know what hydrated skin really feels like and I think due to this I look less tired and more healthy and well more alive.

Yes this is not a cheap day cream, but you don't need loads so one container will last you for ages and to be honest I could never go back to my old day cream now as I don't feel it is up to the job after using this one.

Tips: Start off with very small amounts to apply to your face as a little goes a long way and its better to build up to the right amount rather than waste putting too much on your skin and using up your cream quicker.

kotia Hydrating Day Cream SPF15 Review

I have used kotia Hydrating Day Cream every day since receiving it on Saturday last week. The cream is rich and smooth and smells amazing. It goes on beautifully, it's light and absorbs great.. It didn't leave my face feeling greasy and didn't feel heavy. My skin felt really hydrated and stayed feeling that way all day. I didn't have any oily build up at the end of the day. I would definitely keep using kotia Hydrating Day Cream and would recommend it to friends and family.

This has got to be my favourite product of the yea

Deer Miilk is intriguing in itself, but the story of how they milk the deers and the care that is taken is lovely. The product comes packaged in a high end pot. The product is a thick luxurious cream and I absolutely adored the scent. Soft and subtle without being overpowering.

The texture is definitely a cream as opposed to a lotion but the addition of an SPF didn't make it all gluggy like some products.

Sinks in quickly and just leaves your skin hydrated, plump and glowing. I absolutely love, love love it. I even gave it a go on my cracked heels, smothering them in the cream and doing the whole 'sock thing' over night and it has all but fixed them right up in half the time the previous specialised product I used to use did.

This weekend, i've managed to grab myself the Cleanser from the Beauty Vault and I can't wait to see what that is like.

My only comment is about the price, which I think is getting up there for a daily mosituriser. Would I buy it again? Yes in a heartbeat but i'll be waiting until its on special.

I'll certainly be looking out for other products in the range and it would be great to see some reviews on them on here so I can see if they are as good as this one.

Hydrating day cream SPF15

I found this product light and felt cool and wet initially. However it took less than a minute to soak in and my skin felt hydrated after using it for around 3 days. Auckland weather is so changeable of late my skin is a bit “all over the place”. This product seems to have calmed it down and it doesn’t feel dry.

Happily surprised!

This day cream is a lot heavier than what I would usually use, but once it's applied it doesn't feel heavy on my skin. My skin feels more hydrated and plumper, without setting off any reactions (which my skin is prone to!!). I would happily use this as my daily moisturiser, my skin feels fantastic and the wrinkles aren't as noticeable!
