Who’s loving the Yesstyle 15% off? Thank you Picky x

I was worried about the Alcohol being high on the ingredient list. Maybe this could be lowered to make the product even more hydrating.

THE SKIN HOUSE Marine Active Serum

Seaweed Extract

Ceramide
Ceramide helps to create
a barrier to prevent
permeability

Aloe Vera
Aloe Vera is an ingredient that promotes faster healing. 

The packaging and bottle for this serum is gorgeous and I was excited to try the product.  The pump dispenser makes it really easy and clean  to use. There is a clever plastic lid for  the top which is great when travelling as it makes the bottle leak proof. 

The serum is light weight and formulated with hyaluronic acid which is great for absorbing and retaining moisture in the skin which makes it look plumper and more youthful looking. 

I have enjoyed using this serum, it absorbs quickly into the skin and doesn’t feel sticky or leave any residue. My skin feels hydrated and it retained it’s moisture level all day.  The serum didn’t pile when I put my moisturiser on top of it. It has a slight floral, fresh, clean scent but is not overpowering. 

My skin looked a little plumper around my eyes after about 3 weeks use. 

I would highly recommend this product and believe it is suitable for all skin types. I have not suffered any irritation and I have sensitive skin. 

I love the fact that this serum is cruelty free.

I loved the product itself. I just found the plastic pull tag rather small, which made it difficult to open the inner lid if you have long fingernails.

I absolutely love this cream and have been pleasantly surprised at how well it moisturised my skin and kept it hydrated and dewy looking all day. After just two weeks of use twice a day, my skin does feel slightly firmer.  I will update my review in one months time. 

When I used the cream for the first time, I noticed that the texture was sticky, stringy and almost slimy. I immediately thought I wasn’t going to enjoy using it and worried  that it would feel sticky on my skin. It was actually the opposite, the cream was smooth and silky on my skin and absorbed quickly without any irritation or piling.  The cream felt very luxurious and my make up went on well over it, I did not even feel the need to use a primer as I usually do. 

When using the cream, due to the texture I found it easier and more obviously more hygienic to use the spatula provided, a little amount really goes a long way. 

The product has a faint pleasant smell and did not irritate my eyes in any way like some products do. 

The packaging is simple yet striking and effective, it’s easy to read at a glance what the product is and what it does. I was also impressed that a spatula was provided in the box. 

I think this product is suitable for all skin types. 

I also love the fact that Coxir is a cruelty free brand. 

I can’t wait to try more products from this brand.

It is more expensive then most toners available. 

I purchased this product because of the hyoe I’d heard about the brand  pixi. I suffer from very dry skin and i found this toner very hydrating and it didn’t aggrivate my cheeks which can  become red from some products. I found it calmed my skin and it didn’t feel tight or too dry after use. I enjoyed using this product and look forward to trying others in tyr range.
