Trevarno Organic Day Cream Reviews


Review of Trevarno Organic Day Cream
By Marion P.

The first impression of the labelling of this Trevarno product is that it is unusually dark and exotic in appearance with the maker’s name in purple on a black background. The information on the Trevarno Organic Day Cream is written in white. I was concerned that the contents of Trevarno Organic Day Cream may be heavily perfumed; however, the senses are immediately delighted on removing the lid. The aroma of lavender and geranium together with warmer base notes is a very feminine combination in this Trevarno Day Cream.

The ivory coloured Trevarno face cream is soft to the touch, and when applied to the skin melts with only the lightest of fingertip application. It may be tempting to be somewhat generous in usage as the Trevarno Organic Day Cream smells gorgeous, and feels so comfortable, but this indulgence is not necessary. A small amount, quickly absorbed, leaves the skin feeling fresh, moisturised and comfortable. The fact that Trevarno Skincare range is organically produced adds to the feeling of well-being and harmony with nature. Nourishment for skin and soul!

I used this Trevarno cream as a day cream, and a different specific cream for night application as I have a dry, mature skin. A younger person could, I think, use this Trevarno Organic Day Cream day and night, the lavender having a relaxing effect on the entire person.

Weleda Skin Food Reviews

Review of Weleda Skin Food
By Geri A.

Packaging Weleda Skin Food for dry skin comes in a green tube, which in turn, is packed into a green box. The tube has a white plastic top and I had to pierce the top of the tube with the top part of the white cap in order to extract the cream. This is a good thing because it ensures that it has not been tampered with. The green tube of Weleda Skin Food has white writing on it so it is easy to read. An instruction leaflet comes with the tube and gives more information.

Application The Weleda skin food has a light pleasant smell and the fragrance is created from aromatherapy oils. The cream came out of the tube easily and when I put it onto my skin it was absorbed quickly. It is not oily so it is ideal for wearing at night. It is also good under make-up. The Weleda Skin Food is nourishing and it left my skin feeling smooth and supple. It is especially recommended for dry skin, particularly on the hands, feet and elbows and it is suitable for adults and children.

Ingredients The Weleda skin food cream contains organic ingredients and this gives me confidence. I always find that Weleda products are good for my skin. The skin food contains sunflower seed oil, lanolin, sweet almond oil, beeswax, alcohol, organic pansy, chamomile and calendula. In addition to these ingredients, it contains limonene.

Results I enjoyed using this deeply nourishing Weleda Skin cream and found that it was absorbed into my skin easily, leaving no greasy residue on my skin. I found Weleda Skin Food especially effective on the hands, leaving them smooth and moisturised. It had a light, pleasant fragrance.

Pros: Weleda Skin Food Cream is an intensive, deeply nourishing cream.
· It can be used by both adults and children.
· It leaves the skin feeling smooth and moisturised.
The cream is especially recommended for dry or rough skin.

Cons: Weleda skin food contains a natural substance called limonene which is present in the peel of
citrus fruits but this can cause eye, skin and mucous membrane irritation in some people.
· It also contains alcohol.

Pai Avocado Face Cream Reviews

Review of Pai Avocado & Jojoba Face Cream
By Barbara F.

Packaging The Pai avocado face cream comes in a transparent glass bottle with a gloss white screw top cap.

Application I applied my Pai avocado & jojoba skin cream in the morning and evening after cleansing my face. Pai Avocado Face Cream has a rich creamy texture which was easily to apply and absorbed quickly and evenly. My skin felt nourished, soft and silky. I found the Pai cream to be great as a base, ready for my make-up application in the morning and equally suitable as a cream to use in the evening before bed. It is not a sticky cream, it just feels natural on your skin.

Ingredients The ingredients in Pai Avocado Face Cream are all natural and excellent for the skin. The avocado oil feeds the skin as it is rich in vitamins A D and E, whilst the jojoba oil is a deeply penetrating oil which hydrates and nourishes the skin leaving it soft and supply. The ingredients in this Pai Avocado and Jojoba Face Cream are similar in composition to our skins natural sebum. Additional natural, organic ingredients of geranium water, shea butter, rosemary antioxidant, manuka oil, rose geranium and jasmine give this cream a rich luxuries quality.

Results A most enjoyable cream to experience. The texture of this Pai Avocado Skin Cream is luxuries and my skin felt soft, supple and beautiful. The fragrances all came together to produce a calm, relaxed feeling of well-being.

Pros This Pai Avocado Face Cream is an ethical product.
Suitable for vegans.
Cruelty free.
Made in the UK.

Cons No cons, except, is is a tad too expensive to use as an all over body cream.
