Luster's Pink Oil Moisturizer Hair Lotion, Original, 12 Oz

Product Information

I’d say my skin is normal to combination, with a tendency to get shiny during the summer months here in Sydney, Australia. I break out occasionally but otherwise have a balanced complexion. I love skincare (obviously) and enjoy layering up products for a juicy, fresh finish—which is why the idea of Glow Recipe's Watermelon Pink Juice Moisturizer appeals to me (also, who doesn’t want their skincare to smell like a vacation?). For those in the latter category or simply seeking a lightweight option, enter Glow Recipe's Watermelon Pink Juice Moisturizer: a fresh, hydrating-but-not-greasy gel-cream that is as effective as it is cute. If you struggle with an oily T-zone or prefer products that don’t leave a film, this might be just the moisturizer you need. This tinted moisturizer is waterproof, sweat-proof, and transfer-proof, making it the perfect choice for when you need coverage to brave the elements. Whether it's an outdoor music festival or simply stepping foot outside of your apartment in the summer, this will stay put no matter the weather.

She combined her own insights with testing and interviewed the following expert for the story: The scent is also a delight—fruity and sweet without being overpowering. There is some added fragrance in there, but it’s minimal, the last ingredient on the list. If you’re really sensitive I’d avoid it, but I personally had zero issues. As someone with combination skin, I've found it difficult, at times, to find a moisturizer that suits all my needs—particularly as my skin changes depending on the weather, my routine, my stress levels, and my menstrual cycle. Innisfree's green tea moisturizer is one of those rare gems that's able to moisturize my skin without breaking me out, no matter what external factors are affecting my complexion. Suitable for all skin types, it stays true to its promise of evening out skin tone. Plus, it makes my skin unbelievably soft to the touch." — Gabrielle Ulubay, E-Commerce Writer This oil-free moisturizer reduces the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and acne scarring. The gel formula is a favorite amongst oily and acne-prone skin, but it's also hydrating enough to soften skin with eczema, rosacea, or severe dryness. Ginger, vitamin C, aloe water, and turmeric are just a few of the natural ingredients that help brighten skin and even texture, proving that non-toxic beauty is the best beauty.

Will you be claiming the VAT back?

Interestingly, this product contains no plain water. The first two ingredients come straight from watermelon—a feature I thought was pretty amazing (and makes the price point feel even sweeter). If you find that any type of full-face coverage makes you look super shiny by the end of the day (which is common even if you don't have oily skin), you should give the Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer a try. It stays matte all day for skin that looks smooth and grease-free no matter the conditions. Because of the light gel texture of this moisturizer, a little bit really goes a long way. I feel two pumps is ample, but by all means, add more if you need additional hydration or want to cover a larger area. Use it on top of serums and beneath sunscreen during the day, and as a final step at night. The product is plumping but not at all greasy, so it’s also an excellent base under makeup.

But most dermatologists would recommend doing both. Because, what you’re essentially doing with a moisturiser protecting the top layers of the skin, known as the epidermal barrier, from external factors like UV rays, blue light, bacteria, pollution and fluctuating temperatures, meanwhile sealing all the moisture within. Applying it both morning and night can therefore make a huge difference to its quality and texture. What is the best face moisturiser?

The right one will leave your skin plump, glowing, and comfortable—a trinity of goals we all can agree on, in my humble opinion. But all skin is different, so it’s important to do your research and seek a moisturizer that aligns with your goals. Super dry? Try a rich, occlusive balm. Oilier? A light, water-based lotion is just what you need. BareMinerals Complexion Rescue was an all-around hit while testing. We loved the lightweight, silky consistency and appreciated that a little goes a long way. It blends effortlessly and is buildable, so you can bump up your all-over coverage or dab on a little extra to conceal blemishes. The slightly radiant, natural finish looks and feels like skin. It doesn't have that tight feeling of full-coverage foundation and leaves you with a soft, supple complexion. Directions: Shake well.
