POV: Having oily skin and finding a moisturiser for summer; the struggle is real! This is the season where you really contemplate skipping moisturiser after you’ve tried tons of them and none work out. Thankfully, my skin doesn’t have to go through any more trial and error because I have found the one that rises above the rest. As I knew hyaluronic acid is the ingredient of choice to look for in a moisturiser for oily skin, I tried out a few creams infused with it and this gel based moisturiser from St. Botanica immediately stood out. Not only is the texture the lightest I’ve come across in a while, but the formula also made my skin feel cool and hydrated with a mild and pleasant aroma. My oily skin approves this product, and if you too are on the lookout for a summer-friendly skin hydrant, here’s why you should get this for yourself.
What Is It?
A hydrating water-based gel moisturiser infused with hyaluronic acid, the St. Botanica Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Boost Face Gel is perfect for oily skin. It’s an oil-free formula that penetrates deep into the skin and plumps it up while delivering a natural glow. It also contains Vitamins C and E for antioxidant protection, anti-aging benefits, and skin tone corrective action. It also contains soothing natural ingredients like cucumber, green tea, and calendula, amongst others.
Why Do We Love It?
It’s unlike any gel moisturiser we’ve tried. The formula is watery and super hydrating sans stickiness. It leaves no trace on the skin and you would feel as if you aren’t wearing anything. It also helps the skin stay juicy and boosts elasticity. The best part is, it can even be used as a makeup primer and we love that fact.
