Curel Hydrating Face & Body Spray Moisturiser for Dry & Sensitive Skin 150ml

Product Information

The before photo shows my veins rather obvious and the skin has no glow. In the after photo, the veins are concealed a little and the skin glows. Cons Formulated specifically for those with dry, sensitive skin, Curél’s facial care line is made without irritating factors like fragrance, artificial colorants or drying alcohols. It also follows Japanese skin care’s nourishing philosophy of double cleansing and double moisturizing, and consists of four daily products. Compared to the 10-step routine popularized by Korean skin care, this was a welcome change. Read on to discover my favorite products from the line, which ones to skip and how it compares to other simplified skin care.

The Body Shop uniquely formulated their face mist with edelweiss—which may remind you of Christmas, but has been a key ingredient in some of The Body Shop’s beloved products, including the Drops of Youth Bouncy Jelly Mist, which the new Edelweiss Bouncy Jelly Mist seems to be its upgrade. Edelweiss naturally contains leontopodic acid, which is known for its antioxidant properties and the plant has 43% more antioxidant power than retinol. Not only does is moisturize, but the formula protects your skin from pollution and combats blue light—a real powerhouse in a bottle. Curél follows its double cleansing system with double moisturizing too. This first moisturizing step is called a lotion or essence in Japan and it is super lightweight. "We actually would lump Japanese essences and toners in a similar category," say Fu and Lu. "They often come with water-loving hydrators called humectants like glycerin and glycols to add some base-level hydration for skin."I’ve been using Curél’s skin care for two months and it’s helped my skin weather the transition to winter weather tremendously. Like many, dryness is a main skin concern in the colder months. I am 25 years old and have normal to combination skin. Although my T-zone gets oily, I can experience severe dryness on my cheeks. Using Curél’s gentle cleansers and double moisturizing method has kept any tightness or flaking from occurring. Curél is a brand of Kao Corporation whose goal is to help people with sensitive skin. They’d launched various types of products that proved reliable making it the number one skincare brand for sensitive skin. And just last April of this year, a flagship was launched. The Deep Moisture Spray. How I Started Using Curél Products?

For the body, it gives a light layer of moisture that might be enough in the more humid months, but doesn’t feel rich enough for my desperately dry winter skin. Since I broke the rules on the double moisturizing and began using the Water Essence in the morning, I decided to substitute the Facial Milk in as a first moisturizer before the Intensive Moisture Facial Cream — and I'm glad I did. Since I have true combination skin, my cheeks get quite dry, especially during the winter. Doubling up the Facial Milk and face cream helped replenish my skin, and I actually noticed a difference in how soft and supple my cheeks became after a couple weeks of using both. Thankfully, Marcus confirmed that this is perfectly fine, especially for parched skin. "Using extra moisturizer can be beneficial when skin is extra dry, especially in winter months," Marcus says. "As long as it’s not an occlusive product that clogs pores, feel free to use as much moisturizer as you need to help your skin feel adequately quenched."The Moisture Facial Milk is one of two second-step moisturizers Curél offers. It has a serum-like texture — not as watery as a toner, not as dense as a cream — that feels soothing and light. A great option for those who only need light hydration, the Moisture Facial Milk contains plenty of hydrating ingredients that can make it stand up to heavier moisturizers. In fact, it shares many of the same ingredients as the Intensive Moisture Facial Cream. "We spot helpful barrier-helping ingredients like cetyl-PG hydroxyethyl palmitamide, cholesterol and soothing active allantoin," Fu and Lu share. "Of course, glycerin hanging out at the second position for both these products adds a solid bit of hydration too." The Foaming Facial Wash is Curél's second cleansing step, and it converted me into a foam cleanser stan. I've been a double cleanser for years but have always opted for a gel cleanser as my second face wash. Those would sometimes leave my face feeling tight afterward, which indicates dryness. This cleanser, however, features pillowy soft foam that stays plush and light as you lather it on and leaves skin feeling refreshed and hydrated when you rinse it off.

My skin reacts to strong chemicals. When red spots appear on the first application, that’s when I know that a product contains them. The good news is, I’ve never experienced allergic reactions with Curél’s products. This is not a sponsored content, so believe me when I say that I love Curél. I highly recommend this brand and this product to everyone whose skin is sensitive. Satisfaction is 10/10. Curél's Hydrating Water Essence features glycerin and hydrogenated castor oil, which help with keeping skin plump and nourished. As a humectant, glycerin "draws moisture into the superficial layers of the skin from the outside environment and from deeper layers of the skin," while hydrogenated castor oil "functions as both a humectant and an emollient, which means that it both draws moisture into the skin and traps it there by occlusion, preventing evaporation of moisture from the skin," explains Marcus.Before long, I finally got my hands on Curél. The first product that I tried was the foaming facial wash. After that, Curel gained a loyal customer up until this day. To prove that, here’s a picture of the current products I’m using.
