Alpine Silk Nourishing Collagen Crème with Organic Lanolin

The last time I used Alpine Silk Lanolin Cream, I was a fresh-faced teen who was far from needing the magic benefits this product promises. I do remember it smelling a little unpleasant then, so I was really keen to see what had changed.

The packaging is similar but revitalized and refined so it looks modern and clean and makes me very happy to have it on display in my bathroom. Upon opening, I was so thrilled that the unpleasant and vague woolshed-aroma of has been replaced with a very pleasant and subtle floral scent.

There is a reason this product is still around all these years later. It delivers on what it says it will. I used it on my face, neck, arms and hands. A little seems to go a long way. It absorbs well, and my skin felt hydrated until the following day. I especially loved how much it seemed to soften the skin at my elbows and smoothed my hands. I didn't notice any softening of the lines on my face, but that might require something with a bit more oomph at my age :)

The price point is very accessible and it seems to be available in many places, meaning this product has found a place on my keeper shelf.

I have only ever used Lanolin while I was on my breastfeeding journey, so I was excited to try this, collagen AND Vitamin E. Sounds amazing.

Upon receiving it, my initial impression was that it seemed somewhat touristy, not the type of product I would typically choose. However, I'm so glad that I gave it a chance. The cream is thick and white, with a subtle sweet fragrance that's far from the sheep-like odor some lanolin products have. My hands have been incredibly dry, resembling those of a 90-year-old, so this product had its work cut out for it. It turned out to be highly moisturising and didn't leave a sticky residue; it absorbed exceptionally well, leaving my hands super soft.

I even decided to try it on my face, although I was initially hesitant due to its thickness. To my surprise, it left my skin feeling incredibly soft and well-hydrated. I couldn't resist touching my face, and it worked well under makeup, too. I've noticed a positive change in my skin; it's no longer as dehydrated, and I'm looking forward to seeing the results after using it for a month or so. :)

I did judge the product by the packaging, and while I get that it represents the story behind the business, it doesn't do the product any justice. This product is divine! My mature skin which, was dehydrated when I received the product to trial, is now soft, hydrated and glowing. I also think it looks smoother. My hands are also benefiting, as I scoop a little more than needed and use the rest on the back of my hands. The cream is rich and thick, as you would expect lanolin to be, but is non-greasy and massages beautifully into the skin. The cream has a slight fragrance which, I don't like, but am happy to overlook as I am in love with this product. I will be replacing it when I finish this trial product and am gifting it to several people for Christmas. What's more, it's ridiculously priced at around $20!

This product is fantastic! I only used a little each time but it glides over the skin so nicely and it's the most lightest feeling moisturiser I've ever tried. The one thing I'm not a fan of is the smell, reminds me of a flower. I was pretty excited to try it after hearing it has lanolin in it, as I'd tried lanolin during breastfeeding. And I must tell you it truly does what the packaging says. I noticed the skin on my nose used to be very tight and it's my area where I get blackheads. But after using only this collagen creme in my nighttime routine, the skin on my nose has become so smooth and so much more elasticity. The rest of my face is a lot smoother too.

I'll definitely continue to use this as the results are amazing in my opinion.

I received this product as part of the trial team. I was super interested as I’ve recently been learning about ingredients of cosmetics due to the course I study. Lanolin, collagen and vitamin E are all amazing ingredients for the skin. I have quite young skin so I’ve been using this cream at night because it is a bit heavy. I’ve found a little can go a long way but I also like to put a heavier layer on so when I wake up my skin is so soft. I really like the smell of this product too. I will continue to use this daily and I really like it.

I was really excited to try the lanolin collagen cream, as I'd heard so much about it. The first thing that hit me was the smell, it is quite strongly perfumed and smells floral and very clean. If you're very sensitive to smells, this may not appeal to you, as it is one of the stronger smelling creams that I've tried. The texture is more on the firm side, but glides easily over the skin and sinks in quickly, leaving no residue or stickiness. It feels great on the skin and leaves it feeling soft and well hydrated. I also believe that my skin felt a little firmer with it but am yet to notice any change to fine lines - but it is still early days. I also haven't had any breakouts since using it, which is highly unusual for me! Overall, I'm very impressed with this cream and will definitely continue to use and likely repurchase it, as it works well for my skin and leaves it feeling beautiful and soft.

The packaging is a little "touristy" but the product comes in a nice sized tub. I found the smell a little strong at first but it has grown on me. My son whilst looking through my skincare came across this and is in love with it! We both have noticed how much softer our skin is. It's a thick texture but doesnt feel thick or heavy on the skin. I can have a sensitive face at times and it has been perfectly fine on mine. Would recommend to others!

This innocuous little cream is the best thing I've found in years. The packaging may be more likely to be found in a souvenir shop but the contents are not, so don't be fooled.

A light but deeply moisturising cream, I found it absorbed quickly and left my skin plump and glowing. Made in NZ, organic and paraben free I think this is my find of the year. I used it on my face but it would be equally great as a body moisturiser.

I've spent 100's of dollars on high end anti wrinkle products and I reckon this works as well as not better for a fraction of the price.

I say give it a go!

This is the best little pot of crème I have had for ages. Non greasy, smooth, silky and pleasing to use and such a delicate scent that doesnt linger for too long. I love a hand creme in a pot! Whilst I mainly use this for my hands, its also perfect for face, neck and shoulders. Its a perfect and delightfully all round solution for softening and moisturising skin. A beauty product made with good ingredients at a very reasonable price. Highly recommendable and I’ll be going back to their lovely website for more very soon.

I loved this, it smelt lovely and made a huge difference from day one. My skin had been dry for a while and this made such a difference, I also used it on other dry areas of skin apart from my face.

Would maybe like a larger size.
