& Other Stories Creams Review

This Works Skin Perfect Skin Super Moisturizer Face Cream:

-Very thick, rich texture
-It has a strong scent that reminds me of something unhappy that I seem to have pushed away. I can't figure out what it is, but it just makes me feel bad for some reason.
-It smooths out very nice and absorbs surprisingly well.
-Moisturises really well and the Hyaluronic acid fills small wrinkles nicely.
-Very good for dry or mature skin
-Make-up sits very well on it.

8/10: Very good face cream, but you have to like the scent! So give it a smell before you buy it.





Further I reviewed: the Organza Eye Cream, Lip Balm and Fig Fiction Hand Lotion...



& Other Stories Organza Eye Cream:

-Gel-like texture
-Barely any scent
-Absorbs really quickly.
-My under eye concealer sits really nicely on it.
-Moisturises pretty well, not enough for when you have really dry skin or severe wrinkles. It doesn't do much else besides moisturising.

7/10: Nice and simple cream.










& Other Stories Lip Balm:

-Nice candy like smell
-Moisturises the lips for a long time, compared to other lip balms.
-Very soft candy-like taste. Not so much you keep licking your lips, but its OK when you happen to do so.
-It gives your lips a soft sheen, but no extra colour or anything.

8/10: Really nice lip balm, love the softness of the smell and taste. Doesn't seem chemical at all which it probably is. I would have given it a higher grade when it had come in the form of a stick.



& Other Stories Fig Fiction Hand Lotion:

-Very watery texture, too watery for me. You have to use only a little.
-Moisturises very well. It makes my hands feel like they're a bit sweaty, but when you touch the skin it just feels really smooth.
-Works perfect as a body lotion too!
-It keeps your skin moisturised for a very long time!
-Nice natural scent, not very powerful but with a nice duration.
-Perfect for normal skin and great for when you have sweaty palms, but slightly dry skin. It is not rich enough for when you have really dry skin.

8/10: Nice smell and moisturises for a very long time even after washing your hands.
