Review: Sukin facial moisturizer

With cold weather settling in earlier this year the heaters have also been turned on early. It is hard to maintain my face moisturized with heaters and cold wind blowing constantly. Rachel might be able to recall me sitting indoors with APPLE RED CHEEKS. I'm not even kidding! My face gets so dry that it would be flaking, red AND itchy. So I went to hunt for moisturizers last week and bought this;
Facial Moisturizer by Sukin, a local Australian brand. 

The actual bottle is a more brown colour.
This moisturizer says to contain no Paraben, SLS, SLES, synthetic fragrances, Animal Derivatives, Mineral oils, EDTA, Propylene Glycol etc.
This daily moisturizer provides fast absorbing, deep penetrating hydration that softens and soothes skin. A light weight cream which combines a delicate infusion of aloe vera, horsetail, nettle, and burdock to soothe with skin healing rose hip, wheat germ, jojoba and avocado oil to promote healthy skin.
This moisturizer comes with a pump, and the first thing that hit me is the fragrance. There is this sweetness to it, with a hint of almost citrusy but not quite. The aroma is almost like shea butter(which it does contain) and the sweetness is not overwhelming.

The texture of the moisturizer is quite lightweight and blendable. The white cream appearance is nothing new for moisturizers, it almost feels as if it would become greasy when first applied(so a pump is more than enough to "massage into face, neck and decolletage") but it quickly sinks into the skin and leaves a cool refreshing feeling.

The consistency of the moisturiser

Although I don't feel this alone is enough to lock the moisture in my face, but I would use this moisturizer on a daily basis once my skin returned to normal.
A bottle comes in 125ml and is sold at local chemists for around 10AUD. Sold on Ebay for around 15AUD
                                                             Until next time~~~
