Skinsense by Abi Cleeve - 4 Piece Hydration Infusion Collection

Skinsense is described as being a modern, effective and logical skincare created by beauty expert Abi Cleeve, a name you might be more familiar with when it comes to the sun protection brand Ultrasun. Described as being a brand which was born out of a vision to bring together groundbreaking technology with the highest grade concentration of unique active ingredients in order to successfully improve the skin’s appearance and tackle the signs of ageing.  In this post, I am sharing the 4 Piece Hydration Infusion Collection which is an amazing gift set.
Skinsense by Abi Cleeve - 4 Piece Hydration Infusion Collection
This hydration infusion collection contains one of skinSense’s newest launches, the Bi-Phase Cell Renewal Serum, which uses an innovative infusion technology to deliver thirst-quenching actives to dry skin. Alongside the serum, these treatments are designed to fight perpetual skin dehydration and dullness through what is described as being a long-lasting, slow-release moisture. Expect to see the likes of hyaluronic acid, vegan collagen and innovative plant extracts which when combined help to plump the skin’s texture, promote glow and through advanced moisturisation, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The first product is the Hydranet Day Cream and it is designed to protect the skin from external aggressors which includes both air and water borne pollutants.

Dermatologically tested, this is a really lightweight cream whose job is to nourish the skin and provide continuous hydration throughout the day. It utilises lamellar technology which is often found in suncare, plus Linefill, which is a powerful complex derived from sesame seed and along with it we have Hydra-Protect Complex and this is a combination of hydrating ingredients such as Barbary Fig Seed Oil and Hyaluronic acid which work to maintain moisture levels.

On the skin, this cream which feels like a primer given its texture and on the skin for me, there is a slight blurring of imperfections which I hadn't expected and it feels absolutely wonderful as it massaged onto the skin, no greasy film, no need to massage into the skin for an age after application. Just soft, smooth skin to the touch.

If the day cream sounds amazing, which it is, then in this gift set we also have the Hydranet Night Cream.  Described as being perfect for restoring lost energy and hydration to the skin, this intensive night cream gets to work whilst you sleep.

This fast absorbing lightweight cream is no-greasy when applied to the skin. It is formulated using a combination of Vitamin E and essential fatty acids which not only work to aid the skins recovery whilst you sleep. As with the day cream, this night cream also utilises lamellar technology and Linefill, a powerful complex derived from sesame seed to help maintain natural moisture levels and rejuvenate skin’s appearance through the night, alongside which there is also the inclusion of hyaluronic acid, white birch tree bark extract, rosemary leaf extract, collagen and sweet almond oil, which is quite the list of ingredients to leave your skin feeling incredible!

Could there be a gift set without the inclusion of an eye cream? Well not for skinSense and within this kit we have the Hydranet Eye Concentrate.

I am really picky with my eye creams and serums, it is all about the texture as it is being applied and then how it feels immediately afterwards. From skinSense this product is described as being a deeply nourishing Eye Concentrate which not only delivers long-lasting moisture but it also helps reduce the appearance of redness and puffiness to the delicate eye area. From my eye creams and serums, I want a product that does deliver moisture as it is always somewhere that is dehydrated. Within this formula, the inclusion of sweet almond oil, jojoba oil and shea butter which is what gives this cream its silky texture and formula and it is also what is said to ensure your eyes look and feel bright.

My favourite product within this set is the Bi-Phase Cell Renewal Serum and its job is to strengthen, brighten and hydrate the skin.

Really light on the skin when applied, this serum features a mix of plant based actives that prepare, protect and regenerate the skin’s natural barrier function. Suitable for all skin types, this Bi-Phase serum fluid works to give the skin a more more radiant appearance and it delivers moisture to the skin in two phases: a soothing oil and an infusing water, which need to be mixed together through the shaking of the bottle. The hydrating water phase is infused with probiotic and anti-pollution actives as well as Tremella mushroom extract stimulates collagen production and smooths rough skin, when shaken it is combined with almond, rice and avocado oils.  

I find that I need just two pumps of this serum into the palm of my hand is more than enough to massage onto my face, neck and décolleté. 

This is an incredible collection of skincare and as a gift set, it makes such a good introduction to skinSense as a brand, ideal for anyone who feels their skin is in need of hydration, nourishment and soothing.

Worth over £110, this set is currently on offer for just £46 with skinSense.
