Review: Hydrating facial moisturiser - I ordered this moisturiser after seeing it had been recommended by dermatologists. My facial skin is very reactive and I nee to be super careful with what I use on it. I had been using an Avene moisturiser but was finding it to be too light for my skin so not providing enough hydration. It was also quite expensive at around £15. I read that this cream provides excellent hydration and is fragrance free. The price point is also a winner at around £5 for 50ml so 20ml more than previous Avene moisturiser. I love that it is a pump action so it feels very hygienic. The only problem is you can’t see how much product you have left but I imagine it will last me 4-6weeks as I don’t use a huge amount. I ordered the 50ml size so it’s easy to transport when travelling etc. also handy to pop into a handbag for moisturising on the go. I am really enjoying this moisturiser. It feels super hydrating. My skin feels so much more supple and it just looks more glowy! I have tried applying a thick layer and using it as a mask and wiping off the excess. My skin has not reacted at all so for that I am very grateful! I will be sticking to this in future.
