Organic & Botanic Skincare Review


 **Sponsored Post**

I had never heard of the Organic & Botanic brand before so I was so excited when they sent me a few of their skincare samples in the mail to try out! I wanted to use them for a little while before giving my opinion on the products as my skin tends to act like a roller coaster at times. I am always weary trying out new skincare products because I never know how my skin will react to the product. I received an orange mandarin eye serum and moisturizer and I'm quite surprised with how much I actually loved these products! Organic & Botanic is a vegan friendly brand as well which is a plus.

When I first tried the night moisturiser, the mandarin orange scent was so lovely and I'm quite picky with how a face product smells. The product description says that it works to heal and nourish the skin when it's most receptive to repair. The directions say to apply in the evening after cleansing and applying the serum. I love how after you apply the moisturiser it doesn't leave that greasy feeling like you can get with some other products on the market. It's a perfect night time product to use because it left my face feeling very smooth and hydrated. For 50 ml, you definitely get a lot of use since a little bit goes a long way. I used one finger swipe of product and it covered my face and neck area as well. I love knowing what ingredients I'm using on my face and I like the fact that these products are vegan friendly. On the box it says the Alp Rose Stem Cells aim to preserve existing cells by protecting against environmental stress, whilst encouraging skin regeneration. Neroli Oil aims to nourish and replenish the skin, whilst restoring elasticity for smoother, firmer skin.




This is honestly my first ever eye serum product that I've ever used and I love it! I believe that prevention is better than cure so why not introduce a serum into your night time routine before getting those nasty wrinkles? You don't have to have wrinkles already or be 40+ years old to begin using an eye serum. It states that this product is gentle yet effective, working to firm, smooth, and brighten the delicate eye area. After using the serum for more than a month now I would agree that it does help the eye area become firmer. The serum comes with a dropper and you really just need very little when applying. Here's what the box says about a few of the key ingredients: Beautifeye, derived from the Persian Silk Tree, aims to lessen crow's feet and wrinkles around the eyes. Elderflower is known for it's nourishing benefits, it aims to leave the skin with a naturally healthy appearance. Sweet Almond Oil is rich in vitamins and fatty acids, working to soften and hydrate. This comes in a 15 ml bottle which can definitely last you a good few months at least. 


 


Overall, I'm very happy with these two products and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for new skincare items to try. I'm usually not too crazy over an orange scent but I love how this smells. My skin feels so much better after applying the serum and moisturiser especially with how dry my skin tends to get in the colder months. Will definitely purchase these in the future! Thank you to those from Organic & Botanic for introducing these into my skincare routine!

  1. I know how you feel with rollercoaster skin! It sounds quite nice with a mandarin scent. I'm always looking out for new moisturisers as I haven't found 'the one' yet. I've never thought of using eye serums before but you're right it's never to early to start!
