Joyce Blok Natural Skincare

About a year ago, I was at the beautician getting a facial done. As part of a promotion, I got a gorgeous gift pack to take away filled with skincare goodies from a brand called 'Joyce Blok'. I had never used the brand before, but I knew it was a natural skincare line and that it was New Zealand made. The next morning I decided to try out the 'Sensitive Skin Moisturiser'. I have not stopped using it since. It is a simply beautiful moisturiser and I can not wait to share my thoughts with you!

Joyce Blok Natural Skincare started over 35 years ago by a European-qualified aesthetician named Joyce Blok. She established a beauty therapy school in Auckland, but was disappointed with the lack of quality skincare products, so decided to start her own business. Joyce Blok Natural Skincare line was born! She wanted to create products that used only naturally sourced extracts and ingredients such as essential oils. The brand has continued to grow, and is well recognized in the beauty industry for it's high quality skin treatments and products.

Ever since day one of using this moisturiser, I have been impressed. No one likes the greasy, shiny look and feel that some moisturisers leave on the skin, so I was delighted to see the moisturiser sunk right into my skin leaving a flawless and glowing complexion. It is perfect under makeup, and I have personally found it seems to act as a primer under foundation (I use mineral makeup). The consistency of the product is just right, not too runny or overly thick. You do not need to use a ridiculous amount either, a small dot on each cheek and the forehead, nose and chin is perfect. The effect on your skin: a silky, smooth and bright complexion!

Another thing I adore about this moisturiser is the smell. It contains all kinds of natural goodies including avocado oil, olive oil, lavender and carrot oil and neroli oil.  I apply straight after my shower or bath for a relaxing facial treatment. I use it twice per day for ultimate nourishment.

Rating: This moisturiser delivers in every way. It leaves my skin smooth and flawless and has never caused any irritation, it also has never made my skin breakout like some other moisturisers I have used have. On top of this, it has a luxurious feel, and the smell is wonderful! I would recommend to anyone regardless of skin type or age. I give this prodcut a solid 10/10.
