Linden Leaves Essential Moisturiser Review

Never have I ever tried such a luxurious moisturiser. The Linden Leaves Essential Moisturiser feels like silk and smells heavenly. It absorbs in 30 seconds leaving your face smooth and baby skin like. I use this along with other Linden Leaves products every day. I don't use a primer of any sort, just the Essential Moisturiser and Linden Leaves Porcelain brightening serum. My foundation looks absolutely amazing on top of this. I have sensitive skin. This is by far the most gentle and natural moisturiser I have used. It goes perfectly with my daily skin care routine and I believe along with the cleanser I use, (Epiology Anti-Acne Foaming Pre-wash) it goes well to help and clear my acne too.

From day one my skin has been greedily lapping up this product leaving it feeling wonderfully soft, smooth and replenished. The texture is perfect for me and doesn't leave that sticky irritating feel that can often be experienced. I massage this in with upward strokes and it absorbs well. I am enjoying the end result - as does my skin.

I have been using the Linden leaves facial moisturiser and I absolutely love it. It is perfect for using after cleansing and it really has made my skin look hydrated. You don't need to use much and it soaks into the skin quickly. I absolutely adore the scent too. Definitely would recommend this product.

This is my new favorite moisturizer. The light formulation packs a powerful punch. I have oily skin so I'm fussy with my skin care but this one did not let me down. The lotion absorbed quickly and left my skin soft and hydrated. The lovely smell is soothing but not over powering. This is really one of those products that would suit array of skin types - which is a big call for any product.

This is a great moisturiser! It has everything going for it and it delivers. NZ brand, natural quality ingredients and avoids ingredients which are likely to irritate the skin.

The packaging is attractive and the pump bottle is easy to use. I found two pumps was the perfect quantity for my face and neck area. The smell is subtle and very pleasant.

I have a normal to combination skin type and found this cream to be moisturising, not too greasy, and absorbs quickly making a great base for makeup. It also can be combined with the Linden Leaves oil if your skin needs an extra boost. Some mornings I woke up and felt like my skin was feeling a little dry so with the addition of the oil it was the perfect blend. I would think that in summer I will prefer this moisturiser without the oil which is super handy if your skin changes from season to season like mine.

After using this moisturiser my skin feels softer and smoother. I can find no negatives with this moisturiser and will happily use it again and again.

The Linden Leaves Essential Facial Moisturiser is a New Zealand brand, made with natural ingredients and suitable for all skin types. It’s also cruelty free! I generally have oily skin, but during the winter season my skin gets very dry, especially when it’s windy. So, I was pretty excited to be chosen to trial this product.

I used this during the day after I’ve washed and toned my face. I squeezed half a pea size onto my finger and dotted my face and neck with it. I then rubbed it in to my skin in an upward motion. The moisturiser has a lovely floral smell and felt light and silky. My skin easily absorbed it and left my skin feeling smooth and supple with no signs of dryness.

I really like this moisturiser because my skin wasn’t oily afterwards nor did it get oily throughout the day. I recommend it to those who struggle with oily skin, but also suffer from dryness during the harsh winter season.

I've always had trouble finding a moisturiser that actually does what it says it will do. Many are often too heavy and leave a residue that ends up clogging up your skin and causing breakouts. Linden Leaves Essential Facial Moisturiser does none of these things. It is light and definitely doesn't leave a reside. I loved that you didn't need a lot to ensure coverage. The fragrance is light and not overpowering and your skin stays lovely and soft all day. The only down side is that, for the price, it is quite a small container but then you have to weigh that up with the benefits so I'm looking forward to continuing with the product to see if the improvements to my skin continue for the remainder of the product. I can already see that my skin looks brighter and smoother when I've used this moisturiser in combination with the other Linden Leaves products in this trial.

This moisturiser is very versatile and suitable for all skin types. It's not too greasy or heavy yet moisturises well. The scent is also very distinct and pleasant but not overpowering at all. I feel like this moisturiser would be slightly lacking for people with very dry skin as it is on the lighter side and thus better for day use rather than nighttime use. Overall, its a nice morning moisturiser with wonderful natural ingredients. I was worried that my sensitive skin would react negatively, but it's absolutely fine!

This moisturiser is a lovely daytime moisturiser. It's marketed for all skin types and I can see that it covers a lot of bases. It's smooth, it smells refreshing, it applies nicely and has beautiful packaging.

For me, it wasn't quite heavy enough, but that's because I like a lot of hydration in my skincare because it's pretty dehydrated. It is a good moisturiser and I like that it's got lots of goodness in it. There was one thing that took this into the skincare stratosphere though and that was mixing it with something else. I know you're thinking - what??? But yes!!! If you mix one (only one) drop of facial oil (I used Linden Leaves Miraculous Facial Oil) into it and then apply, it makes for the most delicious, but not heavy moisturiser ever. So much so, that I'm thinking I now can't live without it. The secret is, that is that it's light enough to add an oil to! If it was heavier than it all would have ended in a greasy mess, but because it's light, it perfectly matched wit the facial oil an the result was so nice. I wore it under my Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation and it made it look so beautiful on application. Then throughout the day my skin retained the moisture and instead looked fresh and glowy rather than dehydrated and dried out which is what it can look like with ELDW. I love it. I'm already thinking of getting backups. Oh and by the way, people have commented on how good my skin looks. Not bad for an old bird x

My first impression of the Linden Leaves Essential Moisturiser was how simple and sleek the packaging was and I am always a sucker for pretty packaging. I found the actual product to be sufficiently hydrating but I did feel like if I wanted a bit moisture in my skin I had to use a second pump of the product. I applied this moisturiser every morning before makeup application and it served as a nice base for my makeup as it left my skin feeling smooth and well hydrated but it also absorbed into my skin really quickly and it left no oily or greasy residue behind. I also really enjoyed the luxurious smell of this product, you could tell that this product did not have a perfume scent, which would be good for people who are sensitive to perfumed moisturisers. In the past I have reviewed other moisturisers and with most of them I had some sort of reaction like breakouts, however with this moisturiser I had no breakouts. The only negative for me is the price of this product, however because it actually made a difference to my skin I will be buying this product once I run out because I feel it is worth the money.
