I found this to be quite light for my dry skin and found the night cream more beneficial. If you have normal skin this should be fine. The smell isn't unpleasant but it's not sweet scented either. I like that this has natural ingredients and is better on our environment. It is more moisturizing than the light moisturizer in their range.

Tips: A nice basic moisturizer for normal skin. Apply to damp skin.
This is simply packaged, like the rest of the range. The packaging doesn't quite do it for me, but it wouldn't stop me from repurchasing.
The 50ml pump bottle is great. I vote for more skincare in pumps! 2 pumps was enough for my face and neck. 3 to include the decolletage.
It's a similar beige colour to the cleanser - I'm used to bright white creams, but I took this as a part of going 'natural'. Also like the cleanser - its got a really strange smell. Bordering on unpleasant. But the smell does wear off quickly after it's absorbed, so you get over it.
It rubs in well, and it does hydrate my skin and make it smooth - it just isn't an intensive moisture kick. I need to layer it over a serum to ensure my cheeks are adequately hydrated.
This is one of those products where it does what it says - its a moisturiser, but I don't think its a game changer for my skin. If you need more than a light moisturiser, this probably isn't for you.
Having sensitive skin it can be hard to find products to use.. especially for use twice a day.
I looked forward to using this morning and night. I found it light to use and that it didn’t clog my pores like some products. Being a more natural based product is also a win.
Another natural based moisturiser I’ve used sat on top of my skin, wasn’t absorbed and could basically be scraped off my skin at the end of the day. This was the total opposite. Light and hydrating while being easily absorbed. Definitely left my skin feeling hydrated.
It’s again an attractive pump bottle. I do quite like the look of this range. Sophisticated and green. The pump bottle is handy too. No tipping and squeezing so very quick and hygienic.
I think I will use this the fastest out of all 3 products. I use 1-2 pumps twice a day. It is very quickly absorbed so work fast. I do tend to use more when I use natural products probably because there isn’t so many fillers or smoothers in there.. pretty much looking at the ingredients list it all looks recognisable and real. Lots of antioxidants so not just hydrating ingredients but ingredients for preventative measures also.. this goes for all 3 products too.
I do wear a sunscreen also so I still have to use this separately. Would love something like this with a sunscreen added. Fingers x one day. For now I will happily apply separately.
I got this in a pack with some of their other products, but in hindsight the light version of this would have been a better choice for my combination skin. Probably great for dry skin, but it left me looking oily by the end of the day. Can't say I saw a difference in skin elasticity, but this isn't a skin concern for me. I preferred the night cream for improving skin texture.
I actually LOVE this moisturiser! I have dry and oily skin so it's hard to find a moisturiser that works for both. It's so hydrating and good to use before applying makeup. It feels SO velvety on the skin and it's a lovely feeling! You don't have to use much to apply the product to your entire face, maybe a pea sized amount.
If you have dry skin in any other areas this works out really well even if the areas can be sensitive. My boyfriend's ears get really dry and flaky and as soon as I started using this on them it cleared up. So good for sensitive skin!
