Recently launched in 2018 is the Superdrug Vitamin C Skincare. The range consists of five products:
Labels
- Superdrug Vitamin C Eye Cream
- Superdrug Vitamin C Gel Moisturiser
- Superdrug Vitamin C Booster
- Superdrug Vitamin C Facial Cleanser
- Superdrug Vitamin C Orange Peel Jam Mask
I was lucky enough to be sent a few of the products to try out roughly a month ago and I've put through their paces to try them out.
I was sent the Eye Cream, Facial Cleanser and Orange Peel Jam Mask to try.
SUPERDRUG VITAMIN C EYE CREAM
Despite the name, this product is not a cream but actually is more like a rolling gel/serum. I actually prefer serums to creams which I find to be too 'thick' and leaves behind a lot of residue. As this has a serum consistency and has a rollerball applicator, the product penetrates the skin quickly and I don't notice any residue. In terms of results, this is definitely cooling and I found it reduces puffiness quite significantly. I've used this consistanly for a month to put it through it's paces and can safely say it's made it's way firmly into my everyday skincare routine. I just feel wide awake and refreshed once I've used it.
SUPERDRUG VITAMIN C FACIAL CLEANSER
This has a gelly like consistency and has - what looks like - little pieces of orange through it. I've been using this, again, consistantly for a month and can say I find it definitely cleanses my skin well in the morning but for me isn't 'deep cleansing' enough to be used to remove makeup or to be used after a hectic day of blogging in my pajamas... (If only!)
SUPERDRUG VITAMIN C ORANGE PEEL JAM MASK
When I hear 'jam' mask, I automatically think of something sticky and deliciously bad for me, so seeing a skincare product that's marketed with the word 'jam' in it was a little bit daunting. I wondered if it was all a gimmick and so was excited to properly try it out. I've used this 4 times (once per week for a month..) and I have to say that for the price, this is pretty good.
The consistency is jam like. It's sticky and reminds me a little bit of marmalade. I dampened, then put this all over my face and waited 10 minutes before washing off. It has an exfoliant in it and definitely made my skin feel smoother. I can't say that I notice a reduction in dullness or blemishes but the dry areas I had are starting to disappear. For less than a fiver, I'm happy!
