Goodness Every Morning Moisturiser

First of all, the beautiful colour of this product along with all the others of the Goodness range is definitely what attracted me to it along with the natural ingredients it boasted about. The product itself is fantastic too - it's light and doesn't weigh down my skin and leaves it feeling nicely moisturized. Would definitely repurchase!

I picked up the range of Goodness Chia facial care products in a kit at Farmers for around $20 on special. It contained their Chia oil, scrub, night cream, cleanser, and this moisturiser. This product and the scrub are the only two I'd consider repurchasing, and even then they're not super high on the list due to the scent.

As with the other products in the range, the packaging is cute; pastel colours (in this case pink with a grey cap), attractive soft grey font and a user-friendly tube. In the smaller (20 ml) size it's a screw cap with a decent dispensing hole and an easy to squeeze tube that allows you to extract product with no fuss.

The Goodness Every Morning Moisturiser is a fresh, light white cream that spreads easily and absorbs readily. It feels a little greasy for a moment after use but soon settles in and leaves skin feeling nice - smooth and hydrated. It doesn't contain SPF so it is necessary to either use a foundation etc with this in it, or to use a separate sunscreen if you are using this as a day lotion as intended.

This moisturiser has the same herbal scent as the cleanser, but it's not as intense, meaning that I can tolerate it better. It is the scent, though, that would put me off this as there are other natural-based NZ-made products on the market with much nicer (to me) scents and comparable results.

It's not offensive, but it also is definitely not a favourite for me. I'm not on the fence - if I had to choose between buying it and not buying it then I'd go with 'no' but if you like the scent then this is actually a lovely light moisturiser.

I've been on the hunt for a day cream, I have been using the same one for years but as my skin is maturing it no longer does the trick. This little beauty does. It arrived in my Beauty box and by George I will be buying it again. I've been using it daily and loving it. Perfect absorbency, not sticky or thick, sits well under my foundation and has awesome packaging. I've noticed in other reviews the unhappy comments about the smell of this product. It is not offensive to me, could be nicer! Wouldn't stop me buying it again. I see it's only $19.99 . Bargain!

Unpacking the BRBB was so much fun, but I squealed for joy over two of the products in there especially... one being this product as I had seen it around so much on social media.

First off the packaging.. such a cute and cheeky box (I always checking my teeth for debris). Make sure you read the note inside too.

The tube is the same pink tone on the box, which as I love pink I am very fond of this and the chocolaty brown font. The silver screw on lid is nice too and it sits nicely on my dresser or desk. Scent-wise it smells natural and herbal but softly so it's not over powering and has a semisweet aura to it.

The cream comes out in a thin white line and is quite thick (not runny at all) and it spreads quite easily and absorbs quickly. The feel of it as my skin drinks it in is just like a fresh dink of water for my face (sounds weird but I can actually feel my skin drinking it in).

I do like that I haven't had any additional breakouts since I started using this moisturiser and I am enjoying how my skin feels and it is a lot softer than before.

I love how this is a NZ made product and that it is all natural as well the fact that the packaging encourages users to admire their awesomeness.

It can take me 3 days or 2 weeks to react to a skincare product and I kid you not I’ve been crossing my fingers for this to work. I have sensitive skin and I just managed to pass the 2 week period and I’m quite stoked. Before you start thinking this is the next best thing since slice bread; it’s not BUT I do think it’s a flipping good start.

Personally the packaging is not visually appealing (and it has nothing to do with the fact that I hate pink – well maybe a tiny bit). It comes in pastel pink packaging with a grey lid and I just find that it looks rather – cheap. I would never have picked it up myself because to me it doesn’t reflect the goodness (ugh no pun intended) that’s inside. I think I prefer the box better than the bottle.

It has a rich lightweight texture where the product just melts into your skin, very similar to Cetaphil moisturiser but not as thick. I probably use more than I should (once I got an inkling that I wouldn’t react to it) but I find that if I use a small amount that I don’t get that softness I’m after, my face is “just moisturised”. If I use too much then I’m at risk of becoming a walking oil slick which is never good considering I also have oily skin.

I notice that there is some sort of sensation or slight tingle on my face after each use and I’m hoping that’s just the product working its magic and not a sign that I’ll eventually react to it. That aside the product leaves my face feeling refreshed, hydrated and soft throughout the day. I generally get this feeling when I finish a face mask where I use 3 products and this is just one product! I only have 2 key issues with this product:

1. It doesn’t have SPF - prior to becoming a BR member I didn’t even care about it but now I do so I have to use this under another face cream that has SPF (bit much for oily skinned beauties) or alternatively just use it at night

2. I don’t like the scent – it smells like they just added an artificial fragrance to what would have otherwise been a rather dull smelling product

I’m really happy I received this in the September BRBB and this is one product I plan on repurchasing.

I got this in the September BRBB and was overjoyed to try a new moisturiser, especially a NZ brand. I had never heard of Chia seed oil in any skincare before but I know the health benefits of Chia seeds so I was in the attitude of 'Bring it On'.

I love the cute packaging colour which is a pastel pink/purple colour and satisfies my need to be girly. It has the brand name Goodness printed up the entire length of the tube which stands out to me. When I see something with the word Goodness on it of course I want to give it a go. It just makes it even better to be a NZ branded product. I love supporting local businesses.

The formula is quite light and not overly thick which I like in a moisturiser. The smell is quite pleasant and fresh. It doesn't smell chemically which is something I dislike intensely. I love there is a foil tab to protect the product from seeping out and also so I know it isn't used and is fresh inside.

I made sure I cleansed my face first and then applied this to my face. My skin drank it in as fast as I applied it. After only two days I broke out in a big angry pimple which made me feel self-conscious about going out. I put it down this this because it was the only thing I changed in my routine and because I wasn't hormonal at that time of the month. I put it to the back of the draw and forgot about it, that was until November.

After finding out recently that my skin was not dry like I thought, that it's combination I gave this moisturiser another whirl. It was only fair that I do so right?! I started off with my newly acquired cleanser and toner followed by this baby. The results were as opposite as day and night from the first try. My skin felt soft, nourished and believe it or not my face has never looked better! I in part owe that to Goodness. So if something may have not worked the best first time around I have learned to give it another go it may surprise you.

Goodness this is a good product! I found that you don't need much to cover the face and neck areas, I have rather prone to oil skin and I had no problems. Organic brand so no bad bits and pieces always a bonus. I love the packaging, well branded and speaks for itself. Goodness is it.

I am really liking this product, although I was initially hesitant to try it. I really didn't think that it would be hydrating enough for my skin type but it actually delivers all day hydration! I can use it successfully under makeup and have no issues with patchiness or oxidation. Its neither greasy nor sticky and absorbs really well. I feel confident using Goodness Every Morning Moisturizer. I'm happy with the price and will be repurchasing. I love the fresh, modern spin on the packaging.

This is the first full-sized product from the September Beauty Box that I have completely used up and I'm sad that it has run out! I don't think I realised how much I loved this product until there was none left. I even cut into the packaging to get the last smidge of moisturiser out of it! I will definitely be repurchasing it as soon as possible.

I preferred to use this moisturiser at night because it was a bit too thick for my combination skin to use as a day cream. Also I like my day cream to have SPF in it and this product didn't contain any.

I found that this moisturiser didn't take too long to absorb into my skin and I was always left feeling well hydrated when I woke in the morning. The price is extremely reasonable and it lasted me a really long time (from September to March). The packaging is very cute so I liked to display it for everyone to see.

I agree with those who have said that the scent reminded them of the liquid paracetamol you would get as a kid. Luckily for me I was one of those strange kids who loved that stuff, so I really enjoyed the smell of this product. It mostly smells fresh and fruity to me.

Overall I loved this moisturiser and I'm looking forward to trying all the other products that this brand has to offer!

I've been using this for some time after receiving it in the BRBB last year. Firstly, I love the colour of the packaging. It's nice to see on my shelf. The tube itself isn't bad but I prefer moisturisers if they're not screw caps because if I'm in a rush, it's a bit of a chore to screw the cap back in.

Moving on the the moisturiser, the consistency is quite light and feels nice on the skin. It has a scent which I don't mind but if you put too much product on, it can be overwhelming.

It absorbs pretty well too which is great in the mornings. I have oily skin though and this moisturiser didn't agree with some of the foundations and it made me super oily towards the end of the day. If I'm having a no makeup day or just a light makeup, I'll put this on before but it's not for every day use for me.
