I like a few Sukin products and will add this one to my list! This moisturiser ticks a lot of boxes with so many nasty ingredients not added, plus it's vegan and cruelty free. I got to use the moisturiser for 2 weeks and it really helped with my skin's dryness which has been quite bad due to our cold weather. Happy to report that I had no reactions or breakouts to my sensitive, rosacea prone skin. Love the easy to use pump container and the price is great too. The moisturiser is not greasy or sticky and has no scent. Overall, a simple, no fuss moisturiser that keeps my skin hydrated overnight and most of the next day. Made in Australia.

Thank you to Beauty Heaven for my trial product. I found this serum to help my really dry flakey skin. It's been a tough winter for my skin with extra cold weather drying out my sensitive skin a bit more than usual. The serum is absorbed quickly without needing a lot and doesn't leave a greasy or sticky feel. I only used at night after cleansing and found the next morning that my skin was hydrated and feeling nice. I could detect a faint/mild chemical scent which didn't linger. I also noticed a slight shiny appearance to my skin. Overall, there was no improvement to my skin apart from it being hydrated. The dropper was a bit fiddly to use and doesn't always draw up enough serum after several squeezes. Also, you can't see the serum level through the white glass bottle so it's hard to tell how much is left. Made in France.

I purchased this in the first rewards room 2022. The thing that appeals to me most with this moisturiser is the price and the scent. I love the rosemary and lavender scent while applying to my face and neck. Not overpowering and it doesn't linger for more than a few minutes. You don't need a lot and the pump lid only squirts out a small amount so it's not wasteful. I like that it's not greasy or tacky and keeps my face and neck moisturised well. It comes with a plastic lid which is handy to store the tube upside down making it easy to get the moisturiser out. I didn't have any reactions on my sensitive skin and no Rosacea breakouts. I used with caution applying for a couple of days, have a break then use again later in the week. This is because of the rosemary and lavender oils, I know from overuse in the past that can cause a breakout.

I purchased this in the first rewards room of 2022 and it's pretty good. Packaging - is made of plastic and has plenty of information about the scrubber, what it's made of, how to use, etc. I would prefer that it's made of recycled cardboard as it's more environmentally friendly. Scrubber - I love it. The stretchy material is great as it is easy to stretch either horizontally or vertically across your back. It does take a bit of practice to get the moves right but does a good job of cleaning and scratching my itchy back. For my skin I find it just right, not harsh at all. The scrubber can be used with just water, soap, body wash or body scrub. It can also be used to prep the skin for tanning or removing fake tan. It's made of recycled polyester which is a huge tick. Needs to be rinsed out after and hung up to dry. Made in China.

I purchased this body lotion as part of the rewards room in May 2022. Made by EGO Pharmaceuticals who also make QV products. I'm impressed with this product and the company making an effort to use recyclable materials to make the container. The container is a light grey colour with olive green lettering and pump. It's made in Australia using 50% recycled milk bottle plastic. The design is simple, no frills and I really like it. The lotion is made from 94% naturally derived ingredients which is another big tick. The lotion contains two types of wax and two oils so it's lovely and hydrating keeping my skin from drying out in the cold weather. I chose Summer Citrus and unfortunately for me, it smells too florally. I think possibly that the other scent, Botanical Bloom may have been poured into the Summer Citrus container as all I can smell is a florally scent, not a hint of citrus. The smell lingers for quite a while and it's too strong for me, so I can only use on my legs where it's harder to smell. If it wasn't for the scent I would have given 5 stars.

Thank you to Beauty Heaven and QV for my trial pack of the hydrate and renew serum. I started using on the 8th of June so got to trial for 3 weeks. In a nutshell I love this serum. It's perfect for my sensitive skin and doesn't cause any problems with my Rosacea. The serum is white, medium/thin consistency and the best part is that it's not greasy, rich or heavy going. My skin can't tolerate rich serums or moisturisers and this serum suits me perfectly. The serum absorbs fast and has a nice cooling effect going on. Two pumps is enough to do my forehead and face so the pack will last quite a while. It's fragrance free which is a must for sensitive skin and I can detect a faint scent. The scent has a kind of medicated smell about it but it's unnoticeable once applied. The serum didn't perform any miracles on my fine lines and wrinkles but it did keep my skin hydrated and smooth. Right at the beginning I noticed the serum made my forehead go a bit dry but after a few days this settled. The pump pack has a nice, stylish look and is easy to use. The box has instructions on how to dispose of all the components, either into the rubbish or recycle. For me the serum is perfect to use everyday with my skin type and is the perfect product to use after the QV gentle face cleanser. A simple, no frills affordable serum. Made in Australia.

Thank you to Beauty Heaven and Elizabeth Arden for allowing me to trial this product. This is also the first Elizabeth Arden product I've used. This eye serum comes packaged in a sleek, silver tube with a metal, shaped applicator and clear plastic lid. The tube comes packaged inside a silver box with all the ingredients listed and other information. I also went onto the Elizabeth Arden website where there is plenty of available information. I first took a close up photo of my left eye area and only used the serum on my left eye. I decided to see if there would be any difference between my two eyes and thought this would be a good way to trial the serum. I started using the serum on May 2nd so got to use it for just over 3 weeks and applied twice daily. My favourite part is the metal, shaped applicator and applying the serum with it. After gently squeezing out a tiny amount of serum and dabbing it under my eye I took the applicator and massage the serum from the outer eye where the crow's feet are up to the inner corner and back again several times. This action is so soothing and feels great for usually between 5 and 10 minutes. The serum is yellow and has no fragrance that I could detect. It spreads easily and absorbs pretty quickly. I did notice two things changed. The skin under my eye was noticeably softer and smoother. I also have a couple of sun spots and noticed that the largest one has faded quite a bit. Unfortunately there was no change to the dark skin under my eye, the deep crow's feet or fine lines. I will continue to use the serum until it's all gone and are curious to see with more time if anything else changes. The three weeks I had to trial the serum was good but I feel that with more time I may have gotten more results. This tube will last a long time as I've barely made a dent in it. Made in Spain.

2.5 stars I won this Skin Physics product in a prize bundle quite a while ago and loved everything except this. Sorry Skin Physics. I like the tube feel and design, very sleek and great to store in a bag. The box is great with plenty of Information on it. The moisturiser is a yellow/cream colour and thick. My first issue is the scent, it just doesn't agree with me. Unfortunately it's one of those scents that makes me feel slightly nauseous when wearing. On the positive side it does spread and absorb well and there isn't any greasiness. The other issue I have is the SPF factor of 15. In Australia that really isn't going to offer much protection at all. My opinion is to keep this as a moisturiser only and remove the scent. If the company wants to do sun protection it needs to be SPF 50. Made in New Zealand.

I purchased this for full price at Priceline and love it! The scent is just beautiful, smells yummy. I think the generous size tube for $10 is great and the tube is lasting me a long time because you don't need a big amount to cleanse your face. The cream is whitish and thick. I found a bit of effort is required to remove all the cleanser and get better results washing off with luke warm water in the shower. I like that the scent does linger for a few hours afterwards as it really is a lovely smell. Another plus is the cream doesn't leave my skin feeling tight and dry. My skin feels clean, smooth and I can get away without using moisturiser. I can't comment on the removal of make up as I don't use it. Made in USA.

After reading about this product in an article on Beauty Heaven I looked it up on the Priceline website. It was on sale for $15 so I decided to give it a go. The box is quite pretty and made with FSC mixed packaging. It lists that 99% of the ingredients are natural origin which is great. The container/pot and lid are both dark blue plastic. I never had problems opening and closing lid and there is also a foil seal under the lid. I kept this on to help keep in freshness. The cream is white and thick. There is a fragrance which I found pleasant, but it did also linger and was still there in the morning. I like the feel of the cream going on and most absorbs well, but there was a greasy coating that stayed. For me that was a downer as I like my moisturisers and creams to absorb and not have greasy skin. The other negative for me is that it is too rich for my sensitive skin. I could get away with using it for one or two nights a week, but the greasiness ruins it for me. However, I didn't waste the cream, it got used up on my neck and chest area at night. Others will probably like this and it's a good price night cream. Made in Poland.
