Purity Organic Skincare treats - A Review

I was recently given the opportunity to review some products from Purity Organic Skincare. I wasn't too familiar with the brand so did a little research. Purity Organic Skincare believe less is more when it comes to beauty. British in origin, Purity pride themselves on bringing us all intelligent, sustainable and organic beauty. 

I was pleasantly surprised to review five out of the seven products Purity produce - and all at full size too! I have been trialling the products for a couple of weeks now and will be bringing you one post a week, reviewing the products. Today I shall be reviewing the Regenerating Overnight Moisturiser and the Anti-Ageing Mask & Serum.

 The packaging is simple - muted colours and plenty of details about the products which is always a win/win for me. I hate fancy products which have no details about the product on their packaging but then again, I am also a sucker for pretty packaging. These are just the right amount of pretty and informative. I love how each product has the Purity philosophy written on it...Less is more in beauty. Such a nice phrase and so true! Why use chemical nasties when pure products can do the job just as well?
 
The moisturiser is of a creamy consistency but not too creamy as to be unpleasant. At first application, it left my skin feeling a little greasy, however after a few minutes of leaving it to sink in, the greasy feeling had all but disappeared and had left my skin feeling smooth and hydrated. As I have mentioned in previous skincare reviews, sometimes my skin can be a little horrid and I have been using a variety of different products to combat whatever problem I may have. I recently finished my BeautyLab moisturiser (as seen in my July Empties post here) and this has fast taken its place. I actually have far too many moisturisers dotted around my bedroom & bathroom but I can never resist trying a new one out, just to see if it will become my Holy Grail skincare product.

The mask also looks of a creamy consistency when in the tub and applies like a dream, however it is a little oily. I found the mask to become quite tight once applied, which some people may not like, but I believe tightness or tautness is the sign that a good mask is doing its work. You can either apply it like a usual face mask and leave it for the standard time of ten minutes or you can leave it on overnight, for a more intensive treatment. I opted for the ten minute mask, however I will be trialling the mask in an intensive treatment over the next few days and will report back with my findings in my next Purity review. After the initial tight feeling passed and the mask dried, I then washed it off to find my skin feeling very soft. I rarely use masks as I have always seemed to have trouble with the Montagne Jeunesse range, bar one, but I did feel that this one lived up to (and possibly exceeded) my expectations.

Would I repurchase? Probably. I am currently overwhelmed with moisturisers though so it would definitely be in the future somewhat but I'd be unsure when. As for the mask, I will let you know once I have tried it as a more intense treatment.

You can buy the Purity Skincare range from their website:

Have you ever tried any products from the Purity Skincare range?

  5. Thanks for your review. I'm also planning to buy that product for my sister and see the difference between my MicroderMD anti-aging cream and this product when it comes to effectiveness and how fast the results will be seen.
