Murad Correcting Moisturiser SPF15

Advantages: It reduces redness
Disadvantages: Nothing its amazing

...My face has always been "rosy" and becomes more so with exposure to the elements, which doesn't help because I spend a lot of time outdoors. I started using this moisturizer last summer to soothe my skin before and after a day in the sun. I love that it includes an SPF! Now that it's winter, I love it even more. The cold temperatures and winds usually turn my face red and puffy to the point of stinging, but now when I get in I put on the Correcting Moisturizer to quickly calm my irritated skin. And my skin isn't flaky and dry anymore either! It's soft and healthy looking! This is defaintly great for For Rosacea-like redness and concerns. It Neutralizes and protects dry, irritated skin by minimising redness with colour correcting tint and shielding against sun irritation. My beuatician told me that Goji Berry Extract that in this...

The Sanctuary Spa Hand Cream SPF 15

Advantages: contains sunscreens
Disadvantages: Leaves a sticky resisdue on your skin

...I have to say I'v never written a negative review before but in all honesty I thought that the price I paid for this hand cream was extremely high! The cream is infact non greasy i'l give it that but i found it too heavy to actually feel like it was nourishing my hands. i felt it left my skin sticky, generally i use hand cream on both my hands and feet but felt it was not suitable for either. It is a light lotion as it claims but i felt that it spread to thin and left a sticky residue on my skin. It has a lovely frangrance to it, a bit like talc so smells very clean but comes out of the tube a bit gunkish! Its a sort of grey/white colour, quite thick. I do like the fact that it is of an spf rating of 15! I find it hard to find a hand cream with a decent level of sun protection in it but it also claims an anti-oxident white tea...

Review of The Sanctuary Moisturising Hand Cream SPF15

An everyday SIMPLE moisturiser with SPF15

Advantages: Reasonably light, no perfume, no colour, sun protection (spf15)
Disadvantages: Takes a few minutes to absorb fully, several additives, made my eyes puff

...As I have sensitive skin, my facial moisturising needs are basic. All I want is hydration and a little protection from sun and pollution, without any perfumes, colours or additives. So ?SIMPLE Regeneration Age Resisting Day cream SPF 15? seemed like a good choice. Purity vs. Additives The brand name SIMPLE is effective at conveying the impression of its products being very pure and free from all unnecessary additives. Happily this moisturiser has no colour or perfume, but it does have extra ingredients and these might not be suitable for everyone. The manufacturer, however, believes that these additives should be beneficial for most users, and they are ? ? Green Tea Extract which they claim ?fights premature ageing? ? Mushroom Extract which they say will ?refine skin tone and texture? ? Oat-Beta Glucan and Allantoin...

Review of Simple Regeneration Age Resisting Day Cream

Hand Care

Advantages: SPF, Vitamin E, soft hands
Disadvantages: None

...with protective, antioxidant White Tea, UVA and UVB sunscreens helping to defend your skin from premature ageing and helps to condition your nails, soften your cuticles and leaves your hands wonderfully soft and smooth. When I put this lotion on I do find it a tiny bit greasy in the beginning and I can definitely feel it on my hands for a while afterwards but I think it absorbs into the skin well and does leave them feeling really moisturised. The lotion has an SPF of 15 which is great protection for everyday and also vitamin E which is a fat soluble vitamin that maintains cell membranes and offers good protection for the skin. The White Tea extract is a powerful antioxidant which protects against premature ageing. When I first saw that this product had White Tea Extract in it I actually thought it would smell a bit like tea but unfortunately it...

Review of The Sanctuary Moisturising Hand Cream SPF15

MAC Select SPF 15 - worth it for the shade!

Advantages: selection of shades; coverage; ease of blending
Disadvantages: awkward pouring; more expensive than average

...Until recently, I'd sworn by L'oreal foundations, and found these to sit well and last the day. However, as is the case with a lot of brands, the shades were always just a touch too light or too dark. I was drawn to Mac because of the range of shades on offer. Perhaps it was just my experience, but I found the lady who served me in-store to be refreshingly blunt. Instead of the usual false air one encounters at cosmetic stands, she was extremely professional, while also flat-out telling me what didn't suit my skin tone, and also which type of foundation I should go for, based on my borderline oily skin. Again, I'm not sure if this was unique to the store I visited, but I found it extremely refreshing! Select SPF 15 comes in a 30ml bottle, and unlike the testers, doesn't have a pump at the top. I found this quite cumbersome, as its...

Review of MAC Select SPF 15 Foundation

Olay total effects day moisturiser SPF 15

Advantages: Very easily absorbed into skin.
Disadvantages: None I would say!

...After celebrating my 26th birthday in June this year, I decided that I needed to start wearing some form of day moisturiser that included anti-aging protection. My mum has been wearing Olay since her 20's and her skin is in good condition, so I decided to stick with the Olay brand which has a good reputation in past and present generations. The cream has a really soft scent which is the way I like it rather than being overly perfume scented. My skin is more soft, supple and smooth since wearing total effects from June this year. The cream is easily absorbs into my skin. I have oily skin so Olay total effects has the perfect texture and doesn't make my skin look more oily. I wear Olay total effects underneath foundation so it is clear that this cream is light enough to wear underneath makeup....

Review of Olay Total Effects Touch of Sunshine

Moisturiser that will help you achieve glowing, radiant look

Advantages: Non-greasy, moisturising, SPF15, healthy looking skin
Disadvantages: Too much packaging

...Fluid seemed like something I was looking for. It has a UVA/UVB protection of SPF15 which is perfect for everyday use. Being a fluid, the product is very light and has a velvety texture. It is very easy to smooth over face and neck and absorbes quickly. Apart from the fact that it protects against sun rays, the fluid is also very good at moisturizing. My skin needs everyday hydration but doesn?t tolerate heavy products. This product is perfect consistency for me, it is very light and isn?t greasy at all. I feel comfortable using it every day and my skin is soft. The fluid doesn?t seem to clog up my pores but does a great job, moisturizing the skin. Although it is supposed to be used during the day, I also apply it during night because it is so light and I like to wake up with a fresh(ish) skin. This moisturizer is perfumed but the smell...

Botanics Pore Perfecting Moisture Lotion SPF15

Advantages: SPF, cost-effective
Disadvantages: Dodgy cap, strange texture

...masks. Personally, while i like the matte feeling it provides when the lotion has been absorbed, it has a nasty habit of balling up and coming off if I apply too much lotion - ie, instead of sinking into my skin, it sits on top. Using less product and applying more evenly has rectified some of this. I do like the SPF included, 15+ is a decent enough number for daytime use, even in Australia. Lets face it, if I was going to be outside in the sun all day I would apply a seperate 30+ anyway, so 15+ is sufficiant for spending most of my day in an airconditioned office. Overall, I like this moisturiser. Its not too heavy, it doesnt irritate my skin, and if I apply it correctly it has a lovely texture and goes a long way. Im not sure if I will repurchase the item, but I will be using up the tube. It retails for just under £5 at boots, which...

Review of Boots Botanics Pore Perfecting Day Moisture Lotion SPF15

Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser

Advantages: Long lasting, lightweight, amazing product!
Disadvantages: A bit pricey

...squeeze the tube to get some product out, a little goes a long way!! This moisturiser also has spf of 20 which is good as I often forget to put sun block on my face! In total the tube holds 1.5 fl oz of product. Although this has a hefty price tag, I am finding it is lasting really well and is in my opinion well worth the investment. I am therefore giving this product a 5/5. Well done Laura Mercier!!...

really good moisturiser

Advantages: has spf 15, good value for money, doesnt make skin oily
Disadvantages: none really i can think of

...i have been using this moisturiser now for a few years, i really like it as it has an added spf of 15. i've used it on holiday and never been burnt as well which is amazing. initially i bought this because of a review elle magazine did on this product, saying it was the best holy grail beauty product so i gave it a go. packaging - i love the size of the bottle for the price, its around £6 and you get 75 ml for this, also at christmas i got a gift set for £5 in the sale with this in a 80ml bottle which is amazing! it has a pump, which can be easily used and controlled so you can get 1 pump or a 1/2 a pump. the formula - it is very creamy and has an opalescence to it, which is lovely. i only use 1 and 1/2 pumps, and apply to my face and neck. it leaves skin so soft and radient, i really like it. i usually leave it for about 5 mins...
