Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream

Hey dears!

More than a year ago I began to give serious importance in taking care of my skin. I upgraded the products I use and make sure that my skin is getting the proper hydration it needs and that means I get to drink enough water and also use a good moisturizer.

Last night, I finally finished this 50g tub of...

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream

You can buy this at Beauty Bar for Php 1,450.00.

This moisturizer was among the products sent to me by the brand last Christmas.

This is one of the few skincare products that I have tried from the brand. I actually haven't tried their skincare line before I received some products last December so I was pretty excited and started using all of them. This jar lasted 3 months and I used this every night.

Anyway, here's what the product is all about according to the label on the box:

A summary of what it promises according to the website:

• Intensely hydrates dry skin 

• Helps reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles

• Absorbs quickly with non-greasy formula

• Enhanced with Probiotic Technology 

• Dermatologist Tested and Noncomedogenic

And now, I will share with you my experience with the Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream...

Did it hydrate my skin? Yes. I have oily skin so I have no problems with flaking, dry skin. During the time I was using this, I can say that I didn't encounter any dryness, no breakouts nor irritations. My skin was soft and supple, especially in the morning when I wake up!

Lines and wrinkles? I'm still in my mid-twenties so wrinkles and fine lines are not yet my problem so I can't really say much on the effectiveness of this product on that part but if I you still want an answer, I don't think I developed any during the months that I was using this night cream.

Did my skin absorb the product quickly? This night cream is very thick. It feels very heavy at first and then I feel like my skin is tightening, and I find that very pleasant for some reason. After a couple of minutes, I don't feel the heavy feeling anymore so I guess my skin did quickly absorbed it. 

Was the product non-greasy? It's not, but it is still thick which is not something I like to put on my face... good thing it gets absorbed fast as mentioned. And oh, this smells really nice!

Overall, this is a nice product to hydrate the skin. If you don't mind applying scented thick creams, then I recommend you try this out! I find that the price is reasonable for something that gives intense hydration and is 99% natural. :)

That's all I have to say for the Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Night Cream. Have you tried this product yet? What are your favorite Burt's Bees product/s?

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser

Hello loves!

The weather is dryer than usual so I bet some of you are concerned with their skin condition. I have oily skin so the dry air isn't much of a problem for me but some of my friends with dry skin are experiencing some flaking on skin so as much as possible, they need to use stronger moisturizers for better hydration. Some would add more products like serums in their skincare regimen. But there are some skincare products than can cause your skin further dryness. Some cleansers can dry the skin up because it takes away the natural oils of the skin, but we can't help but wash our face because we expose our skin to the pollutions of Manila.

That's why I'm thankful that there are products like the...

Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser

You can get this for Php 795.00 at Beauty Bar. This product was sent to me last Christmas from the brand. I wasn't familiar with this particular product before I received it so I was excited to try this out.

It's housed in a tube which makes it easy to squeeze the product out. I like cleansers in tubes so I won't have a hard time shaking the product out, gravity will just do that for you. Design-wise, it looks very clean which is very apparent in Burt's Bees product package design.

Here are the labels on the packaging:

And more info from the Burt's Bees website:

It has a fruity scent and the consistency of this product is thick and creamy that doesn't lather. It sorta reminds me of a light lotion or a moisturizer actually. Haha! I don't find the experience of rubbing this cleanser on my face pleasant because I'm used to having my cleansers foam up. I feel like the product is thick and that it didn't remove all the excess oil and dirt off my face. But once I use toner, the cotton wasn't dirty at all, meaning it took care of most of the dirt and makeup on my face (I still use a makeup remover prior cleansing but this can actually act as a makeup remover too). So it's actually a good and gentle facial cleanser! And my face doesn't have any dry feeling at all and it feels softer.

I do recommend this cleanser, especially if you have dry skin. The performance is really good and it smells great too (if you don't mind scented facial products)! But if you're used to foaming cleansers than cream ones, then you might feel a bit annoyed because of the heavy feeling while using it (at least that's how I felt). I hope you can try it before you buy it just to be safe. :)

And that's my short review! If you've tried the Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Cream Cleanser, let me know what you think of it! :D
