Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face Lotion Reviews

Review of Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face Lotion
By Sue B.

Packaging: Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face Lotion is available in a 30ml opaque glass pump action bottle. The black text is clear and in a readable font. There is a lot of information on the bottle including Barefoot Botanicals postal address, web address and phone number. A best before date is found on the bottom of the bottle.

Application: This Face Lotion is light, quickly absorbed and smells fresh leaving no greasy residue. I assume there are application directions on or in the box, as there are none on the bottle itself other than stating that it is a day cream. It is suitable for all skin types, young and mature.
Ingredients: The literature states that Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face Lotion is made from 100% ethically-sourced ingredients with no chemical nasties are all Barefoot Botanical Products is suitable for vegans and is cruelty free. The Rosa Fina range uses several herbal extracts including rosa mosqueta oil, which is reputed to dramatically reduce wrinkles, stretch marks and scar tissue - leaving your skin plumped, smoothed and younger looking.

Results: I have experienced a slight tingling when I applied this Face lotion to my forehead, but it disappeared within a minute and caused no other problems. I am fortunate to have only fine lines and I am frequently complimented on how young I look, so this lotion certainly gets the thumbs up from me as I hope to continue getting those morale boosting compliments. There is no greasy residue from Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face Lotion, so it is great for during the warmer weather and for applying under make up. At £23.95p I feel Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face Lotion is good value for money.
Just a couple of pumps of Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Face lotion are required for your daily moisturising.
I’ll be interested to see if the pump tube goes all the way to the bottom of the bottle as many don’t and you’re left with some product that you can’t get out – such a waste.

Pros:
Good value for money.
No greasy residue.
Dispensing is very easy with the pump.
Suitable for all skin types and ages.
All ingredients are natural.
Cons:
Not organic – which is always my first choice.
Did cause some initial tingling.

Caudalie Vinexpert Night Infusion Cream Reviews

Review of Caudalie Vinexpert Night Infusion Cream
By Nicky B.

Packaging: Caudalie Vinexpert Night Infusion Cream comes in a stylish Plastic silver tube with a screw lid.

Application: This night cream has a very light fresh feel which is absorbed quickly into the skin without leaving any sign of a greasy residue.
Ingredients: This cream contains a patented substance called ‘Resveratrol’ (from the grape vine) which is said to have anti-ageing properties and is in all Caudalie products (it was an anti-ageing award winner in the Beauty Bible). It also contains antioxidant grape-seed, borage and evening primrose oils. Sage, thyme and peppermint are included to give the skin vitality and radiance. Lime blossom, orange blossom and verbena give the cream a gorgeous fresh springtime fragrance.
Results: My skin felt soft and cared for on application and in the morning my skin was rejuvenated and smooth. I love this cream as it firms up my skin but at the same time makes it feel really well moisturized and supple, something which I rarely find in a night cream. I have slightly dry skin and this cream was perfect.

Pros:
Vegetarian
Free from toxins e.g. petrochemicals and parabens
Not tested on animals
No artificial colours
No mineral oils
Non-comedogenic (i.e. not pore blocking)
Cons:
None - this is a great night cream which does what it says
