Sukin Signature Facial Moisturiser

I got a small bottle of this to try from a Sample Bar or Goodie Box. The first thing you notice about this is the quite overpowering scent - I haven't had a facial moisturiser that is quite as strongly scented as this, so I was worried about what it might do to my slightly sensitive skin. Luckily I didn't react to it, but it probably isn't my favourite just because of the scent and I find that it's quite a think formula which often doesn't work for me (I have oily-combo skin so like nice light ones). Good for travelling though, I took this on a couple of long-haul flights and was really good for that.

With a $20 farmer voucher I brought 2 Sukin Moisturisers and a cleanser. It's in a nice easy to use pump bottle, nice and hygienic to use. Paraben free, aloe Vera, nettle and other skin healing goodies. Jojoba and avocado oils and wheat germ, to promote skin renewal. It's says it's a vegan product and has a list of things (baddies) it doesn't contain:) And no animal testing and an expiry date. A nice lightweight cream, smells slightly fruity and I can smell the jojoba. I have to put it on a couple of times, as my skin is quite dry and soaks it up, it doesn't sit on top of your skin. I must admit I do not love it, but my skin is doing well with it, and I will use the other bottle when I finish the one I'm on. I haven't noticed my skin looking any healthier. Well it is value for money, it's moisturising, my skin is not flakey or tight. It's ok:)

I received this as a gift and honestly I looked at it and put it in the back of the cubboard .

After a month I got it out and gave it a test run (expecting the worst) I couldn't believe it. My skin felt soft and healthy, it left no oily residue and smelt great I'm hooked. I love the pump bottle and it re locks if u need to take it with you anywhere or to stop the kids from pumping it for fun. My only wish would be sun protection, even just a little.

This used to be my staple moisturiser, but I've now switched to Essano ;) What I love most about this moisturiser, is that it keeps things natural, with no nasty chemicals, at an affordable price. I used this on my face for three years, and went through a lot of bottles, however the truth is that it wasn't really working for my skin type (eczema prone and sensitive). I used it for such a long time because I didn't know of any other options at a cheap price. The moisturiser sometimes made my face sting, become red, and made it feel itchy. Also, it's thin consistency wasn't making a big difference to my dry skin. It just didn't agree with my skin, and I had to accept that and look for something else. I think this would be perfect for people who don't have particularly dry skin but do want to moisturise at a cheap price.

This is a good daily moisturiser, but I don't think it excelled in any areas. I often felt like it promoted oilyness from my face instead of helping reduce it. My skin tolerates it but I wouldn't say I love it and although it hasn't done any harm, I don't feel its made my skin any healthier.

Pro's: It smells nice, a little goes a long way, keeps skin moisturised, affordable

Con's: created oilyness, a little heavy

This is my go to daily moisturiser. It has a very lightweight formula which is perfect for my oily, sensitive skin. My skin doesn't break out in response to this and I have noticeably smoother skin texture. Due to the lightweight formula this is probably only useful as a day cream and people with dry skin may need to apply a bit more. I do find this has the signature Sukin citrus scent so this is probably not for those who need fragrance free products.

I got this a while ago now, as well as the night cream and spray toner. What I love about this brand is that it doesn't feel like I am smothering chemicals all over my face. I love reading all the natural ingredients and how they work for your skin. This moisturizer doesn't feel heavy at all and doesn't leave that oily feeling afterwards. It sinks pretty fast afterwards and makes your face feel Fresh. Not only would I recommend the moisturizer, but I would recommend the whole brand as I love chemical free brands.

Sukins products all contain natural herbal ingredients that are good for you, your skin and the environment, and I know that my skin is safe from reactions and flare ups because this moisturiser is 100% chemical free which is a happy relief. The cons of it was I felt like it increased the oily appearance on my skin unfortunately. But I will defiantly put some on before I apply my BB cream if I am in a rush.

Another Sukin product I love! Leaves my face feeling so soft and nice (especially after a Sukin exfoliating scrub) I love the Sukin skin range, it's so affordable and fresh smelling. My partner prefers the sensitive Sukin moisturiser, this one tends to sting his skin a bit

I love that this moisturizer is paraben free, 100% vegan, not tested on animals and suitable for all skin types!

The tinted, pump action bottle ensures that the moisturizer stays hygienically clean and is not exposed to light, air or bacteria each time it is used. The lotion is lightweight and non-greasy and contains soothing ingredients like Aloe Vera, horsetail, nettle and burdock, as well as the healing properties of Rosehip, wheat germ, jojoba and avocado oils.

It has a slightly unusual, yet rather pleasant, herbal smell and is easily and quickly absorbed into the skin leaving it looking and feeling almost matte with absolutely no greasy residue.

One small thing that didn't fit my usual skincare checklist: I do like my daily moisturiser to contain an SPF and this one doesn't provide any form of sun protection. Other than having to apply a separate SPF, this really is a great moisturiser and is a perfect product to use under make-up.
