Jurlique Herbal Recovery Advanced Day Cream

I absolutely love Jurlique as a brand and have featured them quite a few times, infact their Rosewater Balancing Mist is one of my absolute favourite products. New to the brand is the Herbal Recovery Advanced Day Cream which I have been using for well over a month now and I absolutely love it. Described as being a powerful anti-ageing moisturiser which targets the appearance of fine lines and dull skin to deeply hydrate skin and rejuvenate its youthful glow.

The Herbal Recovery Range is all about minimising dullness and protecting the skin from the first visible signs of ageing and with the addition of a day cream, this is quite an extensive range of products and one which is quite exciting.

The Herbal Recovery Advanced Day Cream features a blend of over 18 botanicals, the star ingredient is called Japanese Cedar Bud extract which is said to help give you a visibly younger-looking complexion. You will also find Lavender, Licorice Root Extract and Rosemary leaf extract to name just a few more ingredients. 

What I love about this cream is firstly the scent. As soon as the lid is remove, there is a lovely scent of Rose intermixed with Lavender and the scent is so fresh. On the skin the cream is incredibly luxurious and smooth. To use, you simply warm a pearl sized amount between the fingertips and gently massage onto the face, neck and décolletage, avoiding the eye area, but there is a cream for that within this range (here).  Once on the skin and massaged in, there is no greasy or tackiness to the skin, little sign the cream has been there until you touch your face, then what you find is incredibly soft and smooth skin. 

Having used this cream daily, what I have noticed is the difference in hydration. I have combination skin which tends to lean to the oily side but it also means I have dry patches of skin, usually on both cheeks and between my eyebrows, so my skin always needs a little extra TLC and this cream has made a whole lot of difference.  If you are a fan of Jurlique then this is one you definitely need to try.

The cream, which is available now retails for £37.

Majestic Pure Vitamin C Serum. This product boasts that it is also an antioxidant and will provide younger looking skin after consistent use. This product consists of 20% Vitamin C as well as hyaluronic acid, Vitamin E, and ferulic acid. While this product is a favourite among many consumers for decreasing the signs of ageing and making skin appear healthier, the smell of the serum can be a bit overpowering. In addition, applying the serum can be a bit tricky as the substance is a thin liquid. The best way to apply is to use a sponge or cotton swab for even application. 

TruSkin Naturals Vitamin C-Plus, anti ageing treatment. A favourite among many, this serum offers a milder smell than others listed and therefore is probably the most commonly used. This product offers 20% Vitamin C that comes from sodium ascorbyl phosphate. Because of this, this product is often quite a bit less expensive than competitors. This product is vegan, cruelty-free, paraben free, and organic. 

Kleem Organics Rejuvenating Vitamin C Serum. This serum has been noted to cause irritation on skin that is not used to using vitamin C. If you have used it before however, this could be a great choice for you as it offers 20% Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, Vitamin E, ferulic acid, aloe vera, and witch hazel, all of which have great impact on healthy skin.

SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Broad-range antioxidant. Perhaps one of the most expensive items on our list, this serum is made with a water-base and has been researched for years. This product can offer the rejuvenation of ageing skin and the prevention of many skin problems. The product contains 10% L-ascorbic acid which is considered to be a pure form of Vitamin C. Because of it’s potency, it works very well with only a small amount applied to the skin. While on the expensive side, it can last a very long time and the results are worthwhile.
