I picked this up in the Vault and was VERY excited to try it as I love their original serum and have bought many bottles of it. Unfortunately, this did not live up the bar set by its sister skincare.
The packaging is classic Snowberry - white tube with a cute picture on the front. It's a pump pack, which is handy and makes it feel more hygienic.
The scent is... off-putting. Initially it smells fresh but it quickly turns, and when I asked my husband for his opinion he described it as 'rotting cucumber', which sums it up perfectly. I can't stand the scent, but would put up with it if the product worked wonders on my skin.
The lotion is white and creamy and seems to absorb quickly, however I found in the mornings I was waking up with oily skin (my skin is dry) and when I washed my face in the shower it felt like a slippery layer was being removed from my skin.
As for seeing improvements to my skin? It did look hydrated, but I can get hydration without the stench and the slippery/oily skin at a much more affordable price.
Sorry, Snowberry. I'll stick to your serum but this night cream is a pass.
I got this from the beauty vault and was so excited to try it because it is so expensive that I would never be able to justify buying it. I have used it for less than a week but from the first morning upon waking up I noticed my face looked incredibly greasy. I don't like the smell and it seems to irritate my skin almost immediately after application (particularly around my chin and forehead). My skin is typically combination and I have trouble with face creams making me break out and look greasy. This may be better for someone with dry skin (because it is a "hydrating" cream) but be wary if you have combo or oily skin. I do like that it is NZ made and has no nasties, not tested on animals, etc but it is not for me unfortunately and I will stop using it.
