Hydrating and Light

A light serum that’s good for pretty well balanced skin

Restorative without the heaviness

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

My skin is very dry and sensitive. I recently had an allergic reaction to a drink that, unbeknownst to me, had some kiwi. As a result, I was suffering from severe dry skin and painful sensitivity. I purchased this new product, hoping it would cut down on the recovery time. I am so blown away by how effective it has been! It doesn’t feel overly heavy and it’s like it brings all the goodness from your moisturisers deeper into your skin.

Restored my skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

After suffering through a bad spell of dry skin this has really helped restore my smooth glowy skin. After a few days of use my hydration was back and it’s really helped maintain my skin health without any irritation

I couldn’t put my finger on which new product was making me face peel, until I worked out that every time I applied this cream I instantly experiences peeling and flakey skin, so I have stopped using it and not had same complaint since i won’t be re using

A great serum for those with dry skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

During a mad and desperate attempt to fix my skin, I got this and the moisturiser when I just wouldn’t stop getting dry patches or that horrible tight feeling that wouldn’t go away. This has actually helped when I was desperate and this has actually made a good impact on my skins health. I would definitely recommend to those searching for a hydrating serum that will be a literal drink for the skin

Ectoin Hydro-Barrier Serum

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I was a bit let down by this as I expected a hydrating, soothing serum but it made my skin feel tight almost instantly upon application and that feeling didn't disappear. Even a moisturiser only mildly minimised that feeling. It also hasn't made a difference to my skin one way or the other, so although it hasn't damaged my skin and didn't sting, it also didn't hydrate well or make my skin look/feel better either.

Okay

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I love this brand, and thought I'd give this ago, as my skin has felt a little dry lately, so I wanted to add an extra hydrating step to my skin care routine. Although this is a great price point, the product just doesn't hydrate enough, and also I found it has a strange smell, that I can't quite put my finger on. If you have very well balanced skin and want something super light and cheap then this does the job, but I wouldn't recommend if you need proper hydrating. Unfortunately I won't be purchasing again.
