Winter Skincare Routine | The Body Shop Vitamin E Range Review + Giveaway
Hi guys,
I have been using this Vitamin E range for more than 2 weeks now and here are my thoughts..
Vitamin E Cream Cleanser
This light cream cleanser gently lifts away dirt, make-up and impurities.
• Gently but effectively cleanses
• Softens and conditions
• Leaves skin feeling smooth and supple
How to use: Apply to the face and neck with fingertips. Wipe away with a cotton pad or muslin cloth.
MRP: Rs.795/- for 200ml
It comes in a long slender bottle with a flip cap. It’s a little thicker lotion and you need to squeeze the bottle to dispense the product. It takes off the daily dirt and grime from the pores and some basic makeup like a tinted moisturizer/BB Cream, etc. It leaves the skin super soft and moisturized. This won’t work on water proof makeup, so for your heavy duty eye makeup, you will need to use a separate remover.
Vitamin E Moisture Serum
This pre-moisturiser provides intensive, continuous hydration and protection.
• Pre-moisturiser
• Gives extra hydration
• Immediately smoothes skin
How to use: Apply to face and neck using fingertips before moisturising.
MRP: Rs.1295/- for 30ml
It’s a pre moisturizer treatment and also has rice bran oil apart from the basic wheat germ oil this entire Vitamin E Range has. It is very light weight and gel like in texture. You just need half a pump for each use and it does make the moisture locked in the skin for a longer time.
Vitamin E Moisture Protect Emulsion/Day Lotion with SPF
A lightweight, milky formula to moisturise and protect your skin against UVA and UVB damage.
– Locks in moisture for 48 hours of hydration, leaving skin feeling soft and smooth
– Antioxidant properties protects against free radicals
– Powered with Biofermented Hyaluronic Acid
How to use: Apply a pea-sized amount onto fingertips and massage onto the face and neck in an upward motion after your serum. Best applied as part of your morning regime and/or before being exposed to the sun.
MRP: Rs.1495/- for 50ml
This is the new launch in the Vitamin E Range. It comes in a very handy and travel friendly, sleek bottle with black cap and pump packaging. It is very runny, so make sure you pump carefully. I need 1.5 pumps per use and it covers whole face and neck well.
I am glad this has SPF 30 PA+++ protection and works as both moisturizer + sunscreen. I don’t use a separate sunscreen and the biofermented hyaluronic acid keeps the moisture locked in the skin. Even after 5-6 hours my skin is soft and hydrated, and does not feel dry or stretchy even once.
Vitamin E Night Cream
This rich night cream replenishes moisture levels while you sleep.
• Intensively hydrates
• Works when skin is at its most receptive
• Leaves skin soft and smooth
How to use: Apply to face and neck just before bed, after cleansing and toning.
MRP: Rs.1195/- for 50ml
This is the only product out of the 4 I am using hat is slightly rich. It has Cocoa butter as one of the ingredients and that makes it intensely moisturizing. You just need a pea sized amount and you are good. I prefer a little heavy moisturizer during night time and this is just perfect. My skin is all soft and hydrated even the next morning.
Usually by end of Nov and start of Dec, my skin starts feeling dry and stretchy. I am glad I started using this range early Nov and my skin has not been dry at all this time. No dry spots or flaky skin, it is all plump and hydrated.
I definitely recommend the Vitamin E range, especially for winters. Dry skin definitely can use it throughout the year, but specifically for winters, this range is amazing.
I am giving away two of the products i.e. the cream cleanser and the new day lotion/emulsion to 3 winners on my YouTube, so make sure you participate 🙂
