SKIN by ecostore Hydrating Moisturiser Review

I actually LOVE this moisturiser! I have dry and oily skin so it's hard to find a moisturiser that works for both. It's so hydrating and good to use before applying makeup. It feels SO velvety on the skin and it's a lovely feeling! You don't have to use much to apply the product to your entire face, maybe a pea sized amount.

If you have dry skin in any other areas this works out really well even if the areas can be sensitive. My boyfriend's ears get really dry and flaky and as soon as I started using this on them it cleared up. So good for sensitive skin!

A beautiful product with an amazing smell. Feels smooth on my face and gives it a soft glow, dries quickly so you can apply make up. Comes in a great sized 50ml pumped bottle. NZ made.

I got this product in a BBBE. I was excited as I haven't tried any Ecostore skincare before.

On first opening it, I liked the packaging - simple white bottle with a pop off lid, and a pump top underneath. So I pumped and pumped. And didn't feel too pumped - nothing came out! So I unscrewed the top to find there was no tube from the pump into the product. Annoying.

Anyway, so from there on in I've been using it every morning by shaking it and banging it out into my hand. Not very elegant at all.

Anyhoo, the product itself is a white cream, just thick enough to meet my preference for thick white creams - tick! It has the odd smell that usually comes with products with calendula in them, but it's not strong enough to be off-putting. I don't know if it has calendula or not, but it's just that kind of scent.

It is lovely and soft and absorbs quickly. I can say it is one of the more superior moisturisers I've used for day use. It says it will aid in cell regeneration and increase skin hydration. It is definitely hydrating and my skin feels smooth after using it. I haven't been using it at night as I'm using a lovely oil, but I'd say it would also make a good night cream.

$27 is a fair price for a good moisturiser. I would probably buy it again with the expectation that it would have the tube in it so I could pump it out. And I'd like to try other products from Ecostore as I am encouraged by this one.

I have sensitive skin + eczema and this moisturiser both dried out my face and left it irritated and red. After having a look at the ingredients I'm guessing it could be from the fragrances (even though they're "natural") and/or the random oils. The smell of this moisturiser is quite strong and the consistency is quite thin, so I was a bit skeptical when I tried it out. Unfortunately it's not for me and for anyone with sensitive skin I would recommend a simple fragrance free moisturiser instead.

This moisturiser was refreshing, but I did find the fragrance overpowering. I’m used to no fragrance so this might be why I thought this. I found after applying this I would feel like my skin was wanting more and almost right feeling. I think I prefer a thicker, cream moisturiser. The pottle is easy to use and would ensure you get every last bit out. After several days use I am looking forward to going back to my original moisturiser as my skin is craving it.

I don't tend to suffer from dry skin on my face but this winter, my legs, knees and feet have been very very dry and flaky (gross I know!) but this was such a dream to use on those areas. This has a really nice natural fragrance and is really pleasant. My only downside was that I wish that this was as natural as it smelt!

I love a pump bottle for my moisturiser, it makes it feel really clean and fuss free to dispense.

I really like that there are lots of natural ingredients, seaweed and kiwi fruit to name a few!

It has an unusual but pleasant smell to it, which doesn’t linger after you apply it.

This feels very hydrating when I apply it, but not at all greasy or heavy. My makeup sits really well on top of this moisturiser.

I’ve been using this for Anita 2 weeks now and my skin feels great, really soft and supple.

The packaging for this moisturiser was nice and simple, the pump is easy to use and I like that it has a safety cap for travel so it doesn't leak. The smell was overpowering, but once I got over that the moisturiser was lovely, really hydrating, although I did have to reapply through the day as I did get some dry patches, I did like the consistency of it. I do have very sensitive skin and it can be hard to balance between dry and oily. I did like this moisturiser, and I will keep using this bottle. Not sure I would go out of my way to buy it again though.

I have only tried a few Ecostore products before but nothing from their skincare range.  So when I was selected for this trial I was super stoked. I started using the products as soon as they arrived.

The moisturiser comes in a cardboard box which has all the ingredients and a stunning image on the side which is supposed to depict the Marlborough Sounds where the marine extract is sourced, very cool. The bottle has a pump which I love and holds 50ml of product, the moisturiser is a medium weight and a light beige in colour. A little definitely goes a long way with this. It smells amazing! It has a lovely kind of powdery scent.

I have sensitive and dry skin so have to be weary as new products can burn and cause a serious irritation. This passed the first test! Not even the slightest tingle woohoo. The thing I find annoying about moisturiser is sometimes they can be sticky, I absolutely hate a sticky face. This moisturiser is brilliant and dries down super quick, almost instantly.

I can apply BB cream or foundation right away and it glides on so easily. It sits so well over the moisturiser and my skin stays matte which is another thing I love. I apply this in the morning and it keeps my skin hydrated all day. My skin feels beautifully soft and supple. It has not caused any breakouts at all.

I did research on the ingredients and this moisturiser is great for helping to increase collagen and regeneration of the skin. So many beneficial ingredients and a company with great ethics. What is not to love! I am really enjoying trialling this and I think I now have a new favourite brand.  Paired with the cleanser and night cream it truly is amazing! My skin has never looked so good and healthy.

Great product by ecostore. The packaging makes it look natural. The moisturiser comes out in a nice thin, smooth texture. The smell is great, a nice earthy smell. Once applied on your face, it made my face real tight and really went into my pores. Ensure you dont use too much, would i probably did, as it spreads all over your face quite easily.
