Dr LeWinns Light Day Moisturiser SPF Review

I loved the white, silver and pink packaging of this product although I must admit that it took me awhile to figure out how to open it. Once I discovered I needed to twist the silver section I was hit with a delicious perfumed scent, which I loved.

The moisturiser was a lot lighter than what I'm used to but it worked just as well and left my skin feeling hydrated as promised. As an added bonus it is SPF 15.

Even though I have sensitive skin I found I didn't have an adverse reaction so I would recommend this product to anyone.

Let me just first of all express my gratitude and thankfulness of being given the opportunity to try a high end skin care cream BR! Thank you! Dr LeWinns has only ever been a blip on my must try but can't afford radar. So to be able to try a cream like this was beyond amaze.

Let's start with the appearance. The box it comes in is very modern and simple, I quite like it although it's not very eye catching and doesn't scream buy me! The bottle itself weirds me out a bit. It has an airless pump dispenser but I dislike it intensely. Ok the only positive thing is it distributes a nice small amount so there is no product waste. The dispenser tends to trap product in the lip between the pump and bottle. So although it seems to save waste it traps more than it saves! The bottle itself is a reflection of the box it comes in. It is white, clean, simple and modern.

The smell is very, very faint but fresh. It's quite pleasant because I can't stand strong smelling skincare personally. The texture is very smooth and silky. It is what it says, light which is nice to rub in to my skin. It promises instant and non-stop hydration! I didn't get that out of it. My skin felt the same as if I had used some random drug store brand lotion. It was nothing fantastical in my opinion. I did like that it has SPF protection. although a bit more would have been better.

After three weeks of using it my skin has broken out with blemishes and actually makes my foundation a bit harder to blend in without turning powdery. If I am honest it is more suited for a young teen who has just started out using skincare because it's nice and light for a young persons skin. All in all I wasn't overly impressed with this Dr LeWinns product so I think I will stick to my drugstore ones, because the price isn't justified at all!

The presentation of this product is very classy and easy to use. The opening confused me at first though as you need to turn the silver section to bring down the pink cover and reveal the pump (very small opening - won't dispense too much which is perfect!). Despite the creamy texture, it spreads very easily and lightly over the face - definitely fulfilling the 'hydrating' aspect of it. There is a slight sunscreen smell combined with the unique ingredients and may not appeal to some people but I found it agreeable (it doesn't linger, anyways). This product wasn't greasy at all which was a huge plus! Overall, it's a great staple moisturiser with SPF. However it's definitely on the expensive side as I've seen in stores, $50+ (thank you BR for the trial!)

I was lucky enough to be given this for trial by the BR team, so thank you to them :).

This basic moisturiser comes in a very nice white, pink and silver easy to use pump bottle. It contains SP15 so that's a great addition to anyone's skin care regime. It is also quite perfumed so if you don't like perfumed skin care products you might not enjoy using this moisturiser. I found it very light weight which I appreciate as I have combo (normal/oily) skin type. It absorbed quickly and definitely felt moisturising so it does what it says on the packaging, however (I think due to the scent) my skin didn't like it all that much as it made my skin itchy and stinging feeling, so I had to stop using it after 3 days as that feeling wasn't going away and I was concerned it could blow up into a full reaction.

I would recommend it however if you don't have sensitive skin, don't mind perfumed face products and you are after a basic moisturiser that also contains SPF in it.

From the minute I opened the packet I was enthralled. I adored the push down waste free easy dispenser. Although it did take me a minute to figure it out. The smell was really pleasant and the moisturiser was really light and felt lovely on. But after a few days i seemed to break out so not the one for me. Would use it if i needed an emergency moisturiser but not daily.

This says it "leaves skin nourished and protected"...and yes it does! I really loved this SPF15 day cream. The instant hydration is noticeable. Initially it feels silky and easily just glides on, then absorbs quickly to leave my skin feeling effectively hydrated all day. The sun protection really works; I spent a few sunny days on the Coromandel coast when I was first testing this product and didn't burn. Bonus, it worked! You can pick up a slight sunscreen smell in the scent but overall it's lovely and not too over overpowering at all. Overall I found this product left my skin looking dewy and hydrated to the point where I got a few compliments on how healthy my skin was looking!

If you're after a good all-round day moisturiser, this covers all the bases. It is light but hydrating, has a pleasant scent, has good SPF coverage and comes in a handy pump of which you only need a little bit, it goes a long way. I found it easy to apply and non-greasy but I'd leave it a few minutes before applying makeup.

The only downside for me is the price, it's quite expensive as I'd estimate it would last about 2 months used daily.

i was given a bottle of this to try, thanks to beauty review :) i love the bottle it comes in, although it did take me a few minutes to figure out how to open it, twist not push down. when i pumped some out for the first time, i was a little worried that it wasn't going to be enough for my whole face, but i was wrong, the tiny amount spread easy over my face. i don't normally use anything like this especially during the summer as i find my face sweats underneath creams and feels uncomfortable, but this cream didn't do that at all. it seems to dry pretty quickly, but leaves your face feeling very hydrated and soft. after using it for a week straight i found my skin was softer before putting it on than it used to be. for me i would use this everyday. love it :)
