Oasis Beauty Apple a Day SPF25 Review

I grabbed this in the Vault as wanted to give a full size Oasis product a go.

I'm still going on this bottle with using it daily since receiving it, so maybe 6 -8 weeks now! I'm quite surprised at how long the tube is lasting, it doesn't look like much... but 2 pumps daily is actually going well!

I still feel it's a little expensive though for something that's not overly special but then again I'm a drug store girl.

Apple a day actually has a faint stewed apple smell which I personally love! It's not too strong and the smell goes pretty much as the cream absorbs.

It does absorb well, fairly quickly so great under make up. It's also a great consistency, runny but not too much, light weight and smooth.

I don't feel it did much for anti -aging but then using it for longer would show better results for this.

It has kept my skin nicely hydrated.

All in all it's a lovely moisturiser & sunscreen but for the price that it is I wouldn't purchase it to be honest.

I received a small sample pot of Oasis Beauty Apple A Day SPF25 facial moisturiser in the Oasis Beauty Goodiebag that I ordered. I wasn't expecting much from this moisturiser as I have naturally oily skin and Apple A Day is aimed at more dry to combination skin, but it surprised me. It moisturises really well without feeling greasy and the added SPF is a bonus!

I can't really comment on the full sized packaging, as I only received a sample pot but the label does state that its SPF25 and I always prefer my daily moisturiser to contain an SPF. Looking at their website, I was surprised to see that Apple A Day actually has a much higher SPF than what is on the label. This is what it says on Oasis Beauty's website: "Apple a Day is just what the doctor ordered. Packed with anti-ageing vitamins plus active naturals to brighten and hydrate with an added bonus of non-whitening SPF30 to keep your skin protected. Don’t be confused, the packaging might say SPF 25 but it came out of testing much higher than we anticipated! You also get the bonus of PA +++ which protects you from premature ageing and skin cancer."

The white cream has a thick consistency and a lightweight texture that is easily absorbed into the skin and leaves no white sunscreen residue or greasy feeling. The best part, it has this really fresh, crisp green apple scent. It smells exactly like Granny Smith apples!

As for the brightening properties, well, I can't really see a difference in brightness over the two weeks that I used the sample pot for.

Would I purchase a full sized tube of Oasis Beauty Apple A Day? Probably not. It's not a bad moisturiser, so this answer is not based on the product, I just prefer Oasis Beauty Knock-Out Moisturiser for my oily skin.

Would I recommend it to a friend? Yes, definitely if they have dry to combination skin.

I recieved a small sample of this moisturiser when ordering another Oasis beauty product. Knowing how amazing their other natural beauy products are I was expecting big things from this little pot.

Th first thing you notice is the smell, its strong of sweet granny smith apples. For me this was great, but fi youre not an apple fan then this isnt for you. The consistence is great, its smooth and spreads fairly well for day-time usage. I felt it absorbed fairly well into my skin, but did leave a slight sheen on my skin for a short time after. I fet my skin was well hydrated while using this, and overall did a pretty good job.

Overall, I would consider buying this product again if purchasing others from Oasis, but this didnt have enough of a wow factor for it to be my go-to moisturizer.

I thought I would try this moisturiser based on the SPF25 factor and good reviews. The fragrance is nice, not too overpowering, nice texture and sinks into my skin well. The price is about mid-range for me, and all those natural ingredients are a big plus for me. My skin felt smooth and moisturised.

What a fantastic daily treat for the skin. Brightens each day with that beautiful fresh appley smell. Readily absorbed by the skin, leaving it feeling protected and nourished all day, without heaviness or greasiness - love it.

I first tried this as a free sample from oasis. I adored the smell but I didn't feel like it was quite moisterising enough for my dry skin. Anyway, when they had their sale on for a not quite right batch, I bought two bottles. They were marked down to $5 when the usual price is $50 so I really couldn't resist. The batch has the same ingredients but the texture and smell were not quite up to their usual standard. To me, both batches felt the same on my skin, the cheaper one was just more like a lotion in texture then the thick butter like consistency that the sample product had. The cheaper one still smelt good to me.

I've just used up the whole bottle. I use it just in the morning and use 3 pumps. I do my face, neck top of my chest and also rub the excess into my hands. It feels nice on my skin, not too greasy, and it absorbs quite fast. The bottle lasted me about 6 or 7 weeks which I think is quite reasonable. I love the packaging, it's a pump and as you use it, the product moves up so you don't waste a single drop. It always annoys me when there is a heap of product left in a tube and it's impossible to get to.

My skin feels really good after using this, it did feel moisterised but maybe for my super dry skin, not as moisterised as I would like. Overall, I do think this is a good product, it smells good, it's made in NZ and it has lots of great ingredients in it. I probably won't buy this one at full price but I would definitely use the same brand again, just a different product in their range. If you have normal skin, I would definitely say to give this a go. Oasis give you 3 free samples to try out so why not :)

The one thing my morning face moisturiser must have at least is an SPF, and after reading Binary Beauty's review on her blog I was sold (plus NZ made heck yeah!).

I like how its a pump action so I can limit what Im using and down the side of the bottle lets me see how much is left - super handy. Its a nice thin moisturiser which doesn't feel caked on my oily skin.

I haven't been sunburnt while outdoors, including during workouts when I sweat so this really does what it says to protect against the suns harmful rays.

Downside - I haven't noticed any fine lines reduced or brighter even skin tone, Its only been my first bottle so Im still on the fence if I continue using it for awhile longer or if I will try something new.

All in all, it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin so would always know I could use this hassle free.

I bought some of this a couple of months back and used it every day until it was gone.

Packaging: I love the packaging as its slim and totally user friendly. The amount of product that came out was just right and I loved the handy pump at the top.

Formula: So the formula felt really nice and glided on really well. Soaked into my skin and since my skin is super duper dry, it just drank it up and I had to apply a second amount. It smelt divine and definitely smells like apples, yum.

Results: Because my skin is super dry, I felt that it didn't fully hydrate my skin as I would like, which is a shame as I had high hopes for this product as I have used their BB Cream.

Price: The price tag is a wee bit steep for me and based on the results, it totally wouldn't be worth it.

SO 3 stars from me based as its not as hydrating and also the price tag

I have combination skin and my cheeks are especially dry and dehydrated.

I like that my skin drinks this product up real quick. It doesn't have a greasy feel and nice and light weighted on skin. I personally prefer a higher SPF as my skin is starting to show signs of sun damage and I want to prevent further damage. The scent is very lovely, smells like apple juice which I quite enjoy when putting this product on!

I received this product as a sample size that lasted me a week, so I can't comment on whether or not it lightened my skin and my sun spots. I think I would probably need to test a full size over at least a month to see any results. Although I quite enjoyed the product, I don't think it is something I would like to repurchase, just because I have used other products that are more hydrating for my skin.
