Alpine Silk Lanolin Everyday Moisture Crème Reviews

I was lucky enough to be selected by BR to review this product. I am really into skincare, and I have a particular soft spot for NZ made products.This product comes in a large (for a day cream) pot that has a wide opening which enables easy access to the product. I used this product on my face, neck and chest and it was easy to apply. A small amount goes a long way. The scent of this cream is really nice and I looked forward to putting it on. The cream is quite thick and luxurious and feels very moisturising. It does sink into the skin well and didn't leave any residue on my face. My skin is combination but sensitive and it tolerated this product well. Sometimes I can have a bit of a transition period when I change skincare but that didn't happen with this product. This is a lovely product to use and I will be repurchasing and recommending it to others!

I was feeling a little unsure about using this product as I had used the hand cream in the same range and didn't like it. First up the packaging is a decent size, comes in a plastic jar and the label is a printed sticker with sheep on it which seemed a bit touristy to me. It has a light powdery floral fragrance to it which is not at all unpleasant or overpowering. It has an almost heavy whipped cream consistency and applies beautifully! The cream absorbs into my skin and does not leave any oily residue or greasiness. This cream is super hydrating and my skin stays soft and smooth for well into 20 hours after applying, I also noticed after about a week that the small fine lines around my decolletage were significantly less noticeable, the collagen in it perhaps? I was not brave enough to use it on my face as I can break out easily but if you have normal to dry skin it would be worth a try... Overall I was impressed and will be keeping this as a staple in my skincare routine!

I had zero expectations about this product, just because I’d never heard of or seen it before. I have been so pleasantly surprised with how good it is! I’ve only used it on my face, as I didn’t want to waste it, and it’s moisturising without being oily and lasts all day. Without a lie, possibly the best face moisturiser I’ve ever tried.

I received this as part of a trial team and was at first surprised by the size of the tub. I thought this was a body creme and expected a much bigger tub. However, this is also meant to be a face moisturiser and the package size reflects this. I tried it for both face and body and for me it was too rich as a face creme. I enjoyed using it as body moisturiser, with its nice thick texture and pleasant smell. I had not used a product with lanolin before, but I would definitely use one again now that I have tried this. I was a bit worried about the smell, given the sheep on the picture, but the smell of this creme is very subtle and nice. I did not enjoy this creme as much as the matching hand and nail creme, but I would definitely buy it as gift/souvenir for friends and family overseas.

This cream is great. I have severe dry skin, in the cold par of nz I live in its particularly bad at this time of year. So far I have used this cream morning and night for 5 days and have no dry patches on my face where last week I had dry around hair line and nose. It is quite a light cream compared to what I would normally go for but holds alot of moisture, it goes on smoothly and I love that it's in a jar not a tube so easy to get every last bit. You only need a little amount to do whole face so value for money I think is good. It has a light fragrance which I usually dont like but I find once it's on the skin I cannot smell it. I would say appearance wise it may not be the most appealing packaging on the market (not that eye catching or modern) but once you try it would buy again.

I had the collagen cream, and saw really nice results to my skin within a few days. My face especially is noticeably smoother and softer :) I apply morning and night. I also put a bit on my 3 year old because he gets little eczema rashes on his body and eyelids and it has helped in an amazing way by minimizing the size of the rash. So will definitely keep using it. The cream is quite thick In the container similar to body butter but doesn't feel like it when you apply it which is good because I'm not a fan of body butter haha

This is nice as a body moisturizer and is not sticky and absorbs well into the body. I like the size and style of the container and this will be great for travelling or for the gym bag. I was very worried about using this on my face as I have sensitive, acne prone skin - however I had no issues! I've used it once a day for about 5-6 days now after my usual serum and not had any adverse affects. Much like the hand cream I am not a fan of the fragrance of this - I find it too "chemically". Overall if you are on a budget, or simply not a fan of spending money on cosmetics - this is a cheap and cheerful all-rounder.

Wow! I received a free trial of this and was blown away. To be honest, its not something I would have otherwise picked up.

The packaging is really beautiful. It would make a great gift paired with the hand creme if you could bear to give it away (definitely buy some for yourself at the same time!).

The creme comes in a short tub so is easy to scoop out. The creme has a pleasant mild smell that dissipates after application. The creme is a thick creamy texture and applies easily. I used it as a night cream.

I cleansed and applied the creme before bed. In the morning, I was looking at the mirror in awe at how smooth my skin looked after one application.

The creme has provided the nourishment my skin needed as it has been extra dry over winter. My skin is prone to breakouts and I haven't had any issues with this creme.

I was so lucky to be invited to trial this product, thank you BR! This product came just in time to save my dry winter skin! It was a thicker consistency than I was expecting but it is non greasy and absorbed quickly into my skin, leaving it looking and feeling soft. After a couple of days of use my face was no longer dry, and has stayed the way since. The directions say to use the product on your face, neck and body, and while it works fine as a body creme I've mainly just been using it on my face to make it last longer. The scent is pleasant and non-offensive, and fades once it's applied which is great. The packaging is a screw lid container which I like as it means there isn't any wastage like you get with a pump bottle. One thing about this product that I'm not particularly fond of is the photo of a sheep on the container, because it's not exactly what I want to see on my beauty products on my counter, however this isn't enough to deter me from purchasing this product when it runs out. Highly recommend for dry skin!!!

This comes in a simple plastic jar with a protective cover underneath the lid. I'm loving the fragrance that this (and the matching handcream) has, it's so fresh and flowery I just can't get enough of it.

This is quite a thick face cream, the type that keeps its form when you scoop some up with your finger. But surprisingly it didn't feel heavy when I applied it to my face. It felt nice and cool, and rubbed in easily. The only mild concern I have is that my face felt a bit tingly afterwards. I've very sensitive skin so I'm not sure if I have a bit of a reaction to it. I didn't break out or get a rash but I was a little wary after that. Now I've been using it as a neck cream for a couple days, and I think it's perfect for that purpose. I always neglect my neck and this filled the gap in my skincare routine. It does a great job at making my skin soft and smooth, and immediately after apply it my neck looks visibly more supple.

I'm not sure if the tingling was just my skin throwing a fit, but I would suggest patch testing if you also have super sensitive skin. However it's great for all those who are blessed with 'nonsensitive' skin and it works amazingly as a neck cream. The jar says that you can use it all over your body but this is so nice I feel like I'd be wasting it as a body lotion. Overall this range has left a great impression and even better it's from Christchurch!
