I recently received a sample of this moisturiser and I was super excited to try it out. My skin usually tolerates Nivea products and I love using jojoba oil. It’s a light weight moisturiser, that absorbs quickly without leaving you skin feeling oily or heavy. You could definitely get dressed straight after application without feeling tacky. Unfortunately I found it didn’t provide enough moisture and or coverage (I.e I had to use a lot of product to get adequate coverage/moisture). However at its RRP one could argue that you could use more product and it would still be good value. The scent is floral and non offensive but defiantly there.. If you’re sensitive to scents I’d give it a miss. However, it did not make my skin react in anyway, which somewhat surprised me due to scent level.

My long time hairdresser swears by this product and she finally convinced me to try it out. I’ve been growing out my fine coloured treated for a while and I wanted something to add moisture to my ends and help with the frizz. This is a great all round product, it moisturises my hair without weighing it down, its a heat protectant and helps tame my frizzies plus the UV protectant helps to keep my colour looking its best. On top of all this, it’s cruelty free!

My SO tried this, and seemed to really like it. He described it as light and silky on the skin yet very hydrating. He has normal/sensitive skin, which was not irritate at all by this product. He did mention it was probably heavier then his usual moisturiser. A little bit of products goes a really long way. However when I sneakily tried it on my skin (sensitive/dry/acne prone) it wasn’t quiet moisturising enough for my liking. Even multiple layers didn’t cut it. The packaging and scent are very masculine. The design is understated while still looking luxurious. SO’s biggest gripe was the design of the pump/lid of the packaging. The clear lid is rather flimsy feeling and doesn’t seem to seal very securely. He liked the idea of the pump but it didn’t dispense the product very evenly.

. I discovered this moisturizer by accident. I ran out of my normal moisturizer and saw this is the cupboard (thanks boyfriend!) and decided I might as well give it a go to avoid being a dry flaky mess. All I can say is WOW! Not only does this smell super yummy, its gentle on my sensitive skin but hydrates without making me an oil slick. It feels luxurious on the skin, and absorbs really well. Since first trying it I've tried in under my makeup and alone and it holds up perfect both ways. I love that it comes in a pump for easy application (and less wastage) and its such a generous size for the price. Plus sukin is a 'low tox' brand that really delivers. Its hard being a beauty junkie but also wanting to be aware of what you're putting on your skin. Will definitely be repurchasing this.

I scored this in the last beautorium and it is just amazing. I have super sensitive skin, that gets dehydrated easily but also tends to break out. This cream is super light feeling which is a little counterintuitive but it sinks straight into my skin, doesnt leave me greasy yet packs a moisture punch.I love that it comes in a pump, which makes its super easy to get the right amount depending on how my skin is feeling. It has a light scent, which isnt over power and doesnt irritage my skin. I've noticed my skin looking less red since I've started using it.

BH gifted this to me with the last beautorium and I'm super impressed with it. I'm a bit of a lip balm feen, after being on roaccutane (hello super dry lips!) and this is a keeper in my rotation. This lip balm, is super moisturising and pretty pigmented (got to love a multitasking product), it doesnt give me that dreaded white line on my lip after wearing it for a period of time, isnt tacky and is moisturizing yet feels light on the lips. It has a light yet pleasant scent.

This is probably my go to L'occitaine hand cream. I love the smell of shea butter. This cream is a little thicker and heavier then other L'occitane hand creams so it may not be for everyone. However, its perfect for my super dry and neglected hands. I love to use it before bed (my tube lives next to my bed), to let the rich ingredients sink in overnight . I wake up with beautifully soft hands.

This would have to be one of my favourite scents by L'occitane. As always this is a beautiful hand cream, which absorbs quickly leaving no residue and hands feeling moisturised. Its a little bit more light then some of their other hand creams, but I find it the perfect weight for on the go. Did I mention the scent? It has a beautifully floral yet light scent, that just makes me happy when ever I smell it.

I got this in a sample size in the l'occitane 2015 advent calendar (which I highly recommend btw) and instantly fell in love. My skin tend to get dehydrated easily and is finicky about what I put on it (sensitive) but it loved this oil. Not only does it hydrate my skin, the light foam it produces when activated by water left my skin feeling clean and it smells amazing.

I adore L'occitane hand creams, they come in fun and easy to use packaging in a range of sizes , the small ones are favourite to throw in my handbag. This is a lovely hand cream that absorbs quickly leaving no greasy or oily residue. I cant decide if I like the scent or not, it has a rather strong marzipan scent (almonds) which some days I loved and couldnt get enough of where as other days I found it over powering. That being said I'm sensitive to scents.
