I have normal skin, no sensitivity, no allergies or anything. I needed a light moisturiser that was fairly cheap so I thought this one would do the job, since it's meant to be gentle. This stuff makes my skin sting! I used it a grand total of 5 times, and it stung, so I ended up buying a Nivea one, which was perfect for me. I am not biased against the simple range, as I am okay with their make-up removing wipes, but I think it is incredibly weird that products made for sensitive skin can irritate someone who has very normal skin that has never gotten a reaction like that with ANY other products.

This moisturiser wasn't that great. It was definitely light but not hydrating. I still found my skin was dry and no matter how many layers of this I put on it didn't help. Won't be purchasing it again.
I like simple, and I have used their other face moisturizer, but in all honesty, I did not like the consistency of this product for my face. I used up most of it, then passed it on to my gran to use. It was great for my sensitive skin, just didn't get along with the consistency of it
the name says it all very basic product great for the price but wouldn't recommend to someone that wants to see results
I bought this moisturizer as I was going on holiday to a humid country so wanted a lighter moisturizer. I tried it before I went away and it didn't feel light and I didn't like the smell, so it's still sitting in the bathroom cabinet. I have normal skin so not sure why it didn't feel light.
Um, I am a little ambivalent about this product. I loved it at first as it was exactly what my skin was after. I was finding my other Moisturiser was too thick and filmy and I needed a change, but not so much as to sacrifice on the mositure content.
My skin loved it for the first few times (I used it in conjunction with the facial cleansing towelettes) and then about a week or so later I noticed my skin started breaking out in little strange whiteheads and it had become a little sensitive to the product with a slight tingly sensation when it was applied.
I never really liked the smell or the texture and I don't think I will continue with this product..... I think I will keep searching for the 'one'... wish me luck.
Tips: Listen to your skin, if you have sensitive, or combination skin this may not be the right moisturiser for you. If you have balanced skin, slightly oily you may fare better than I did.
This is an extremely light and thin moisturiser which is quickly absorbed into the skin. It doesn't have a long lasting effect and my skin did start to dry out. I also found that my skin didn't agree with this product after a couple of days of use and I started to break out, so I stopped using it. This was a bit disappointing as I was hoping that a product labelled "natural" wouldn't cause that effect on my skin. It also doesn't have an SPF which another con as I want some sort of protection in my daily moisturiser. Overall for the price I was disappointed by the product and what it did to my skin, it was in the end not worth the money I paid for it.
Tips: If your skin does start to break out and this is the only product which has changed in your routine, then listen to your skin and stop using it.
I was recomened this product by a frined and had heard good things about the range. This however was not my experience with it, it felt like it didn't sink into my skin very well and left a greasy layer on the top even though i have every dry skin. I have acne prone skin and felt like this broke my skin out more. I only use this foundation when my skin is super dry and it needs a little more hydrating. I would not recommend this product.
Overall, I am not a huge fan of this moisturiser. Although it is light-weight it didn't feel as though it soaked into my skin easily and had an almost 'watery' feel to it while putting it on. It also had a bit of a funky odor which I found the most off-putting thing. The best thing about this is that it is affordable and available at the supermarket, won't be buying it again though.
I found this moisturiser to be too thick for my liking. It didn't hydrate my skin at all and seemed to have left an oily residue, which in turn lead to pimples... needless to say I didn't use it after that and I doubt I will use it again
