I find this stuff Amazing, I just had a baby 5 weeks ago.. with a 12 1/2 year age gap since my last baby so different age bracket all together and I found my skin so so dry after having my baby this stuff does what it says and definitely hydrates my skin amazingly. One thing I don't like is the smell but I can get past that.

Tips: I like my face to be dry before using not damp
I came across this product when I was looking for a new facial moisturiser for my dry skin. I wanted something that actually felt like I had put something on my face. I love that this product is like a gel and you instantly feel as though your face is hydrated. Even though it is super hydrating it is light weight which is great as some moisturisers can feel very heavy. The only downfall is that the tub size doesn’t last very long so I feel that I am always running out and needing more. Would definitely recommend to anyone, especially those with dry skin!
I was lucky enough to win a jar of this last year and I’ve fallen in love with it. It’s so hydrating and the gel consistency feels really lovely on my skin. I especially like this after being in the sun and water all day, adds the hydration back into my skin. Will definitely re purchase this product.
Tips: A little goes a long way
I definitely have dehydrated skin. I usually use Neutrogena water gel cream, and this Antipodes product has similar effects. When applied to slightly damp skin it helps plump and refresh things, leaving a slightly dewy finish and fresh feeling. The scent is delicious but not over powering. I usually avoid fragrance in skincare but the Antipodes scents don’t seem to irritate me.
This lightweight gel cream is surprisingly hydrating and works really well on my oily /combination skin. It leaves it feeling plump and soft. I actually stopped using a hyaluronic acid serum while using this moisturiser as I just didn’t need it. If you have really dry skin then you may not find this product alone gives you enough hydration. This really reminds me of the Moisture Surge moisturiser by Clinique but of course half the price. It comes in the typical Antipodes glass jar . There is a slight fragrance but it’s very subtle and because it sinks into the skin quite quickly the smell dissipates almost instantly. You only need a small amount so should last quite a while. I will definitely be buying this moisturiser again and have continued to use it ever since I first tried it.
I absolutely love this product. It’s been a game changer in my skin care routine. I apply it both morning and night and it has left me with such hydrated soft skin after using it for a few weeks as part of my regime. My skin looks more bright and youthful too. As someone who suffered from acne, this didn’t make me break out nor did it make me oily! I’d totally recommend this.
This is a lightweight gel formulation with a gorgeous light rose scent, it’s very hydrating and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin (personally this is their most gentle cream I’ve tried - I’ve used their Avocado Pear, Vanilla Pod, Rejoice, and Culture face creams too) I would say it’s suited to all skin types particularly combination skin as it’s a lightweight gel with no greasiness. I think this was one of their more affordable creams at around $30 from Chemist Warehouse, regardless I don’t wear it everyday it’s more of a luxury treat for me - it’s sounds strange but I mostly use their products for the sensory experience, they really do smell, feel and look amazing.
This hydrogel is so light and easy to apply. Smells nice and feels like you have nothing on, yet so hydrating.
Tips: You don't need a lot - a little goes a long way
I have learned recently that I really enjoy rose scented creams and this is rose scented I find rose scented creams to be calming and luxurious. The viscosity of this is not creamy it is a gel which it is supposed to be and light pink. Light weight absorbed easily and comes in a little pot like others in the line. I would prefer not a pot though as the idea of dipping fingers in could lead to bacteria even on clean hands. This gel is soothing and anti inflammatory due to the honey and harakeke plant. You could try this on mild skin irritations such as a bit of sun burn and and dermatitis or very dry skin it absorbs easily and did not leave a heavy greasy feeling. This cream promotes healing repair by gently increasing exfoliation and I have recently seen some great skin care creams with the main addition of the hibiscus flower so I think with long term use this may undo some signs of aging. I was tempted to keep re applying this though as it is light weight so you may go through it fast. This might be good for sensitive skin. My only grovel here is it is not cheap and I would prefer to go for something that targets my wrinkles too so it depends on your targets as far as skin care goes but its a nice product.
I used a sample packet of this product, which ended up lasting me over a week! A little goes a long way, so that's always a bonus. I liked the gel texture of it, and while it felt hydrating, I didn't think it was any more hydrating than most moisturisers, Would be good for someone with oily skin who doesn't want to add any more oils. I wasn't super sold on the scent, which was fine, pleasant, but not to my tastes. In fact this whole product seemed like it would suit older skin better.
