Oasis Beauty Hot Toddy Serum Review

This comes in a cute wee box it looks nice and natural and it is and also cruelty free, and inside is a dark brown glass bottle with a pump top, nice to squirt the right amount out and not contaminate the serum. This is a nice light amber coloured serum, it's like a oily liquid but not heavy it's very light. This has a light oily scent nearly a musty rose not to unpleasant but I'm glad it doesn't linger. I shake the bottle and do a couple of squirts and get it on my cleansed face pretty quickly otherwise my hands would slurp it all up. After a good rub in and I nearly do a wee massage, I leave it for five and then follow up with a cream, I use this at night and my face is nice and soft in the morning and is less greedy with my day moisturiser. This I've found does soak in and I'm not left tacky at all and I don't get my face stuck on my pillow over night or leave a greasy residue on my pillowcase. This serum just seems to give my skin that extra drink it's looking for and I don't get any stinging or irritation or tightening off my skin using this and that's even after exfoliating. Results are my skin is definitely smoother and softer and my moisture levels are better so a little less in the wrinkles. I do have dry skin and this does really help the moisture levels. The more I use this the more improvements I see in my skin. A little pricey but it does last and the results speak for themselves. So I'm more than happy to keep this in my face care routine.

I purchased the full sized product last winter. A little goes a long way and it absorbs really well. Last winter this was my skins saviour, I was working outdoors on a daily basis in the cold wind and rain I had developed sore dry and sensitive skin. This re-hydrated my skin and protected it so well. After a week of using this serum my skin was glowing and felt amazing, a week prior it was sore and dry. I was really happy with this product and will continue to use it. The only downside is the smell, even though it is to be expected with natural products, I found the smell a little too organic. I would have enjoyed using it more if it had a more neutral smell.

I brought this just after the brand did an overhaul of their products, as I have loved Oasis Beauty products for a long time now, even though I like to experiment with others I seem to always come back to this. Initially I used a sample of this that they provided with another order and needed to purchase the full size right away!

This serum is great for helping to tame the fine lines that are ever encouraging my face, it smoothes out the lumps and bumps and moisturises quite heavily my dry areas without leaving the oily areas sopping. It comes in a little bottle with a pump, of which only one pump full is needed; the clear serum seems to expand once rubbed in your hands for a few seconds, which provides an even coverage from one drop. Design wise it comes in a pretty bottle that is quite solid for a plastic product, you can feel a sense of quality in it, the pump is very efficient and hasn’t ever clogged up on me.

Yes it’s not cheap but it’s not excessively overpriced, the bottle size and the quantity of product your need each night makes it last a while so you need not keep buying it, I’d see this serum lasting me probably another 3-4 months, I’ve been using it for a little over a month now and the level of content has only just started dropped below where label starts on the bottle!

My face has appeared to be more youthful and glowing, with fine lines less visible (even though I use rosehip oil in the mornings a combination of both may be causing the lines to be plumped) it’s just a nice serum, it makes me happy after putting it as its smells wonderful, leaves my skin hydrated and isn’t oily so no stickiness as you lay your head on the pillow to sleep.

When I got the Oasis goodie bag, you get one of EVERYTHING that they make. This was included obviously, and as I am a convert oil lover I couldn't wait to dig into it. I had mild success with the other two, so I was hoping for the same with this one.

Like the other two serums, this is also a golden color and it's quite lovely. I didn't notice any sort of smell to it personally, but I had gotten used to the smells of Oasis by then. I used 1-2 drops mixed in with my moisturizer, as it made both the oil and moisturizer go further. Unfortunately I didn't get to use all of my generous sample up, as it separated, something I didn't realize an oil could do.

I hate to say it, but my skin is 'young' and as this is targeted at people with older skin, it didn't really do anything for me. In saying that though, it didn't not doing anything for me either. I didn't break out, and my oil making skin slowed down a little bit on the production of the oils, so I guess that's a good thing too. I wouldn't purchase a full size of this, but maybe when my skin gets a bit older I can come back to it and love it.
