Goodness Every Morning Moisturiser

As this does not have SPF, I prefer it for a night time moisturiser. It does however make my skin feel soft and smooth. A little goes a long way, so you don't need that much, but if you do get too much just use on your hands! Simple and easy packaging and is super affordable!

As I prefer a day moisturiser with SPF/UV protection I knew when this came in the BRBB I would try it as a night time moisturiser.

Im all for natural products and NZ made so I had high hopes for this wee mauve coloured bottle.

Unfortunately it really disappointed me, it made my face a total oil slick even when only using the tiniest of squeezes, so much so that every time I tried it I had to wash it off. It felt thick and heavy, almost like a cleanser which needed rinsing off. So even giving it a try prior to my morning makeup application was a bit too risky for me.

On the plus side I really don't mind the fragrance of it, so like some of you mentioned using it for a hand cream will be awesome (especially since I get really dry hands) so all is not lost.

I find both the box and the tube to be aesthetically pleasing. The tube is handy and easy to use. The moisturiser has a lovely light smell and it seems to melt into my skin. My skin immediately feels and appears more hydrated. It is a good base for foundation. It does not cause my acne-prone skin to break out which is something that does happen with some skin care products. The only downside for me is that it does not contain a SPF which means an additional product needs to be applied. This would prevent me from buying it again.

I must admit (sorry BR) I was a wee bit disappointed to see this in the BRBB. Now this is no fault of BR's or about the product itself.... just solely because I am still using up the Trilogy Moisturiser from the last BRBB! Farmers-Wife thinks I must have an extra small face. But really I usually like my day time moisturiser to have SPF in it, and I have already found my holy grail of that in the Joyce Blok SPF. So I wasn't about to let the name "morning" stop me from trying this out as my night time moisturiser. Especially because that packaging really drew me in.

So ... packaging. I love it. I really like the simple pastel pink tube with a silver lid. Looks very classic and cute, but also practical and it sits nicely on my dresser. I've seen some of the other Goodness packaging and it all looks just as cute. Very tempted to get the whole line just so it looks nice on my dresser.

Now the scent isn't my favourite. It seems very sweetly scented for something you put on your face, and at the same time somewhat herbally. Doesn't bother me too much once I get all the other things on my face so it isn't a deal breaker. The cream itself is reasonably thick so you have a good amount of control when squeezing it out of the tube. It spreads onto the skin quite easily and made my skin feel nicely moisturised. It seemed like it would be a good base for makeup as it sunk in quickly and left a nice smooth base. I haven't had any problems with my skin with this, but it hasn't done anything amazing either. I do feel as though it is a good moisturiser though so I will be happy to finish it (once I get through my Trilogy one as well).

I finally found my holy grail morning foundation! I love the natural smell and I find it very refreshing in the morning. It is a light feeling moisturiser but it supplies your skin with alot of moisture. I like that it makes your skin feel soft and is absorbed quickly whcih means no waiting around before starting your makeup routine. Can't wait to try some of the other items in their range!

love the smell.absorbs nicely and doesnt leave a greasey after feel.i use it on my decollage for a really soft youthful look

I received this product in the September Beauty box which was great. I think My previous moisturizer was causing my face to break out, so when I received this one I decided to stop using my other one and start using this one both day and night. The next day I started to see results and my face started clearing up. It has such a lovely scent which isn't to strong but its nice and refreshing great for in the mornings. It also it great at moisturizing your skin leaving your skin soft and nourished. I would highly recommend this product and it is a great product for value as well.

I got this is the Beauty Box and was really pleased .It is in a nice pink box and inside a pink tube with mocha writing and a silver screw top.. A nice little note inside the box completes the initial overview.( something special) The moisturizer comes out in a good consistency, and has a lovely scent which I would think hints of the bilberries and coconut.The scent isnot too strong and really nice to apply. It makes my skin feel so lovely and soft and it looks a lot smoother. I like that is is a NZ product using natural ingredients and I also like that it is available from supermarkets and Farmers. I have try skin and this makes my skin feel really nice and on my makeup free days I feel my skin looks soft and healthy with this cream. This is a really good base prior to BB cream as it seems to make the BB cream go further. The cost is reasonable at $20 for 75 ml and worth the price.

It can take me 3 days or 2 weeks to react to a skincare product and I kid you not I’ve been crossing my fingers for this to work. I have sensitive skin and I just managed to pass the 2 week period and I’m quite stoked. Before you start thinking this is the next best thing since slice bread; it’s not BUT I do think it’s a flipping good start.

Personally the packaging is not visually appealing (and it has nothing to do with the fact that I hate pink – well maybe a tiny bit). It comes in pastel pink packaging with a grey lid and I just find that it looks rather – cheap. I would never have picked it up myself because to me it doesn’t reflect the goodness (ugh no pun intended) that’s inside. I think I prefer the box better than the bottle.

It has a rich lightweight texture where the product just melts into your skin, very similar to Cetaphil moisturiser but not as thick. I probably use more than I should (once I got an inkling that I wouldn’t react to it) but I find that if I use a small amount that I don’t get that softness I’m after, my face is “just moisturised”. If I use too much then I’m at risk of becoming a walking oil slick which is never good considering I also have oily skin.

I notice that there is some sort of sensation or slight tingle on my face after each use and I’m hoping that’s just the product working its magic and not a sign that I’ll eventually react to it. That aside the product leaves my face feeling refreshed, hydrated and soft throughout the day. I generally get this feeling when I finish a face mask where I use 3 products and this is just one product! I only have 2 key issues with this product:

1. It doesn’t have SPF - prior to becoming a BR member I didn’t even care about it but now I do so I have to use this under another face cream that has SPF (bit much for oily skinned beauties) or alternatively just use it at night

2. I don’t like the scent – it smells like they just added an artificial fragrance to what would have otherwise been a rather dull smelling product

I’m really happy I received this in the September BRBB and this is one product I plan on repurchasing.
