Luxury Skincare from Skin Chemists

Skin Chemists Caviar Skincare

I wanted to give you the heads up about a fantastic offer from skinChemists, who are known for their 100% organic and cruelty free luxury skincare. I’ve been testing out three products from their Advanced Caviar range and I have to say I’m impressed so far. Caviar has become quite a popular ingredient in skincare over the past couple of years and skinChemists have been working with leading pharmacists, chemists, scientists and beauticians worldwide, to develop their caviar range.

So why is Caviar becoming such a sort after ingredient? This marine-based ingredient is very rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are two nutrients that promote luminous, balanced skin and its also known to be intensely moisturising and has anti inflamatory benefits. So your skin is in good hands.

skinChemists Advanced Caviar Facial Serum*

I think serum is my favourite product to use as I love the added hydration they give and its a step I never miss in my routine. This one from skinChemists is extremely hydrating, soothing and protecting.

The main active ingredients in the formulation are:-

  1. Caviar Extract, a highly nutritious marine complex, aims to protect the skin against harmful rays and environmental stresses.
  2. Seaweed Extract, thought to have anti-oxidising properties, aims to deeply hydrate the skin.
  3. Aloe Vera aims to stimulate the skin’s healing process, whilst working to soothe and regenerate the skin.

It has a lovely fluid formula which sinks in quickly and helps boost hydration which is exactly what my skin needs right now, these cold days dry out my skin and make my fine lines look more prominent.

skinChemists Advanced Caviar Day Cream*

The day / night creams come packaged in the most beautiful mirrored sphere, it looks and feels futuristic and luxurious. The cream itself is pretty cool too, much like the serum it provides long lasting hydration and nourishment whilst protecting skin from harmful environmental aggressors.

The main active ingredients in the formulation are

  1. Caviar Extract, a highly nutritious marine complex, aims to protect the skin against harmful rays and environmental stresses.
  2. Alpine Rose Stem Cells aim to improve the skin’s barrier function to reduce loss of essential moisture and nutrients.
  3. Powdered Pearl aims to smooth and regenerate the skin, evening the skin tone and improving skin health.

Although this is a rich formula the cream doesn’t feel heavy on the skin or go greasy throughout the day. It gives the skin an instant smooth appearance and when I use this cream I love how well my makeup applies and also wears throughout the day.

Advanced Caviar Night Cream*

We all want to wake up to skin that looks well rested, radiant and youthful and although miracles can’t be achieved this night cream has helped my skin to look brighter, more refreshed and certainly less dry. The night cream is formulated to hydrate, repair and revive your skin whilst you sleep, which sounds good to me!

The main active ingredients in the formulation are

1. Caviar Extract, a highly nutritious marine complex, aims to repair and revive the skin after its daily exposure to environmental stresses.
2. Protease aims to break down dead skin cells and balance natural pH levels.
3. Shea Butter is rich in Vitamins A and E, it aims to deeply hydrate and improve skin health.

All three products I have tried from this range are great for protecting your skin from the environmental aggressors of everyday life like pollution and sun damage. They also help to keep the skin nourished and hydrated so your skin looks plump, radiant and fine lines are reduced. I have loved all three products but especially the night cream, it was so nice to apply each night and I really felt I saw a difference in my skin by morning, it was a lot more healthy.

Let me know if you have tried anything from this brand or if you’re planning on making use of the incredible 70% saving skinChemists currently have on this Advanced Caviar range. Why not start the New Year with a new skincare regime!

Aldi Lacura Caviar Skincare

When Aldi first released its eagerly awaited Caviar skincare range it sold out almost immediately which isn’t surprising after all the rave reviews it received, from the likes of Good Housekeeping to the Guardian. I have tried a few skincare products from budget-friendly supermarket Aldi and I have to say they have always impressed me. I love to find purse friendly alternatives that work.

So the Lacura Caviar range has ingredients that you expect to find in more expensive brands but Aldi are known for bringing affordable alternatives to the masses and they hit the headlines with this range. The key ingredients that everyone’s talking about are

Caviar – This ingredient is known to revitalise and promote regeneration and collagen production. As well as protecting skin from environmental aggressors.

Snow Algae – This ingredient is known to help restore your skins natural glow and increase hydration

Affordable Aldi Caviar Skincare

Lacura Caviar Illumination Day Cream SPF15* £6.99

This moisturiser isn’t lightweight as I hoped but it doesn’t feel greasy on the skin, I like to take a minute to massage it into my skin and I don’t use too much product. It has a generic cream scent which isn’t unpleasant or overpowering. The cream feels very hydrating and leaves my skin soft. I like that it contains SPF15 UVA & UVB protection as well as Hyaluronic Acid which has become such a popular and sought-after ingredient in skincare because of it ability to help skin retain moisture, it’s also good at protecting skin from environmental aggressors. It contains the two ingredients mentioned above, Caviar & Snow Algae so for a very affordable price you’re getting an ingredient rich moisturiser. I can see why this flies off the shelves and has become so popular.

Alsi Caviar Moisturising Day Cream

Lacura Caviar Illumination Night Cream* £6.99

This has a similar texture and scent to the day cream, it’s slightly creamier in colour. This has been a really lovely night cream and it leaves your skin feeling supple, hydrated and smooth by morning. It contains mostly the same key ingredients as the Caviar day cream but it also has Pro-Vitamin B5 which helps soothe and repair skin, so by morning your skin is looking and feeling a little better. Again this night cream contains that sought-after Caviar, Snow Algae and Hyaluronic Acid so if you use both the day & night cream in your routine you’re giving your skin a real boost of hydration and nourish your skin so it looks more radiant.

Aldi Lacura Caviar Night Cream

The packaging of both products feel luxurious, the pots are glass which is quite weighty with silver plastic lids. The design looks simple and a lot more expensive than they are. Yes, I’m very impressed with this range, I wasn’t expecting much but they’re as good as many of my more expensive products. I will be recommending it to my mum, I think she will really like the night cream especially.

I think this duo is pretty fantastic and the price point just makes it all the more incredible. People with oil-prone skin may find the day cream a little heavy but I would recommend trying these out and for the price, I think you will be surprised at the positive results.

Let me know what your favourite affordable skincare products are.

Lacura Caviar Skincare is available in Aldi stores nationwide.
