Botanics Hydrating All Bright Day & Night Cream - £4.99 (currently £3.49)
Since the rebranding of Botanics, I just can't seem to keep away from them. It doesn't help that they are always on promotion which makes it that little more tempting. Though having said that the reason I am pulled towards the brand for the price isn't just the main persuasion, they are great products. The fresh floral smelling pink creams blend and sink smoothly the skin. With hibiscus which acts as a brightening agent because of the flowers natural AHA's which exfoliates to help brighten the skin.
As most of my readers know, I don't like spending too much on products however I like products to have a high quality no matter how much they cost. I chose the hydrating cream as I have been finding that because the weather has been so cold my skin has become dry and chapped. I need a cream which nourishes my skin but doesn't sit on top of it, which these creams don't.
The day cream has an SPF 15 which saves times or putting too many layers of product on your skin especially as I tend to put foundation on afterwards. You don't need to put too much on your skin as a little goes a long way. These are only 50ml pots, however I have been using them for the past 2 months and I am about half my way through them.
The night cream I think is my favourite of the pair because it feels kind of balmy as the formula is quite thick. However when smoothed onto the skin it doesn't take long to sink in by which time my skin feels soft and as though it has nothing on it. That is a personal favourite about any product, when it naturally enhances and you don't notice it but can see it working. Also I must had as well that both of these creams contain hyaluronic acid which helps your skin retain its moisture which is why you don't need too much all over and just focus on my dry patches.
Have you tried these? Can you recommend any Botanics favourites?
Oh these look great! :)

I was looking at these the last time I was in Boots and pondered the night cream. I think I'll give it a shot. The botanics skin tonic is really good.

I'm thinking of getting the night cream and using it as a day cream. My friend does the same and swears by it! defo going to have to investiage due to it being so cheap. I spend a lot of money of skincare but sometimes products don't have to break the bank to be awesome. I'm getting this tomorrow! x
ReplyDeleteI use the botanics all bright cleanser and toner and thats great on my skin :) will need to try out the day and night creams next!
