Works well
I’ve never used an exfoliating moisturiser so I was so looking forward to giving this one by The Inkey List a go. I’ve tried quite a few products from this brand and have always been impressed. I particularly like their oat cleansing balm.
I use fake tan regularly so I’m always scrubbing and moisturising. I still manually exfoliate even though this product has its own exfoliating action. I must say that my skin definitely feels better and takes and holds on to tan much better too.
The product is described as fragrance free but I do notice a very minimal fresh scent that is quite pleasant.
Overall, I’m really happy and looking forward to continuing to use this product. Happy to recommend
Lightweigh
Been using this for weeks all over my body especially my arms and legs as I have KP or chicken skin on some parts and it helps keeping it smooth and flat with my weekly body peel wipes. It’s very gentle and moisturising. Lightweight and absorbs fast into the skin. You know your skin can breath when it’s on. Will definitely buy this again.
mois
Got this for my boyfriend, he has dry skin, and mostly uses cocoa butter but I got this to add to his morning regimen. It works really well, and makes his skin nice and smooth and moist. And who doesn’t like moist? It’s not for me, I guess I’m lucky in that my skin doesn’t need moisturizer, between us we’re a good combination <3
Exfoliating body cream
This is an exfoliating body cream. I think this is a handy product if it suits your skin. It did leave my skin feeling smoother but it did feel slightly irritating. I will stick with using an exfoliating shower gel and a normal body cream. If it suits your skin it will be a great time-saving product.
Great for sensitive ski
I’ve used other skincare from this brand before and have been impressed with it and this particular item is no exception. I love that I can make my skin soft and smooth without irritating it like I sometimes get with other exfoliants. This is a brilliant two-in-one for helping with things like bumps and ingrown hairs while also keeping skin smooth and hydrated. You only need a small amount and it is really easy to apply into the skin after a shower. It feels really nice and I’ve definitely seen results already with the quality of my skin having less dry patches.
potent, may not be suitable for sensitive ski
Cream was easy to apply and felt softer after a few days use so seems to work for me.
The description has a warning to limit sun exposure so it’s best avoiding using in the summer or at least cover up anywhere you have used. I think PHA is not advised for sensitive skin so best to check on a small area before applying everywhere.
Also It’s fragrance free but had a slight smell.
Seems like a light moisturiser to me!
I don’t know what I was expecting from this product as I’ve not seen one like this before so gave it a go. It’s a large tube of a lightweight moisturiser which apparently exfoliates too. I tried it after going in the shower as recommended. As mentioned, it’s just like a light moisturiser and I didn’t notice any tingling from whatever ingredient is supposed to do the exfoliating. I haven’t noticed any ‘evening of skintone’ but it works fine as a light moisturiser. If you have dryer skin you may like to use it along with a thicker moisturiser I would imagine. Skin feels fine after using it. You leave it on, don’t wash it off according to the instructions. I’ve used other products from this brand so will continue to use it as it does an alright job.
Body Water Cream 150ml Ultimate 2-in-1 Moisturiser For Exfoliation & Hydratio
This is a good-sized tube of exfoliating and hydrating cream, the tube is 150ml and the cream itself is odourless and absorbs into the skin very quickly, it is not sticky and there is no sticky after effect either.
The cream is made from lots of ingredients, some of which are jojoba, rice bran and PHA, there is also some alcohol and there are lots more, unless you are a skin specialist it is difficult to know if these are all good ingredients or not.
One issue that the makers do point out is that this cream may cause sun sensitivity, so do be aware of this, they recommend you limit sun exposure after using this cream. Other than this issue the cream has many benefits, I have been using it daily, evening and morning and I am hoping it will over time hydrate and exfoliate my skin.
Unusually, the makers have put more details regarding this cream printed on the inside of the box it comes in, so you will need to tear it to read these details, though it does not say much, just details about the benefits of exfoliating the skin. So this is a good tube of cream, not cheap, but hopefully, it will do as it says on the tube, I am giving this cream four stars, not five, as it seems to have some possible issues with sun sensitivity, but otherwise, I think it will be a very effective cream.
Skin feels differe
I’m at an age where my skin can feel rough and dry, showing its age. This Cream caught my eye, so I gave it a go. No irritation, just a slight tingle on arms and elbows. Followed the directions to start slow and avoided the sun. Skin feels different – softer and fresher. Planning to try on other places. Just would say use with caution as it’s potent. Recommend a patch test for sensitive skin.
Easy to use
This Inkey PHA body water cream is an AHA-based exfoliator that uses fruit acids to remove dead skin cells, aiding cell reproduction and brightening the skin. It’s gentler than most normal scrub-based exfoliators as it’s a cream that absorbs into the skin, naturally (due to the ingredients) removing dead skin cells from the skin’s surface with no harsh scrubbing.
I’ve used similar products (some top brands) that use this system and I find it an effective way to keep the skin looking bright and feeling soft and smooth. This AHA cream is thick and it was tricky to get out of the tube, but it went on nicely and didn’t feel heavy on the skin. I did use a moisturiser on top of it as I have very dry skin.
After a couple of uses, I found a difference in the appearance and texture of my skin.
Exfoliating water body cream
This cream has a light and fluffy texture, and absorbed very quickly onto the skin. The squeezy tube makes application easy, and there is no scent to the product. For a water cream I was surprised with how hydrated my skin felt afterwards, as I was expecting it to dry my skin out slightly. In combination with other hydrating body creams it works nicely. The exfoliating effect is nice, though I don’t think daily chemical exfoliation is necessary. I think this product will however work really well to prevent ingrown hairs, and for bumps on the skin.
Effective but sun sensitive
This is my first time using an exfoliator that doesn’t require rinsing off. You simply apply it onto clean, dry skin and gently massage it in circular motions. One drawback, especially for this time of year, is that it may cause sun sensitivity. It’s important to use sunscreen and limit sun exposure after applying. Currently, I’m using it on areas that aren’t exposed to the sun, like my legs. I plan to discontinue use when I go on holiday and resume when the weather is cooler.
This exfoliator appears to be of high quality. After just two applications, I’ve noticed my skin is already a bit smoother and more hydrated. So far, my skin is tolerating the product well, but I will discontinue use if I notice any signs of reaction.
Moisturiser for Smooth Ski
I have been using this PHA body cream for a few weeks now. It acts as a 2-in-1 moisturiser, providing both exfoliation and hydration. My skin feels smoother and looks brighter. It’s fragrance-free, which is a plus as I like it without.
The cream absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. Overall, it’s a decent.
Easy to apply
The box and packaging help to portray good quality, and the box has good instructions on how frequently this should be used, as well as some Sun exposure advice. The cream in the tube is under a seal that needs to be removed by unscrewing the cap.
There does seem to be quite a bit of empty space in the tube, and you have to squeeze the air out before you get any product.
The creams rubs in easily and absorbs fast, and it does practically turn into water as it heats up on the skin. So it does leave skin feeling wet. And needs to dry for a time.
It’s unscented, which is a shame for me but it works well as a moisturiser and softens skin.
I’m *of an age…* and my skin can feel a bit rough, dry, and show it’s age.
I thought this was an interesting product to try and see if it helped.
I didn’t get any troublesome irritation but there was a bit of an immediate ‘tingle’ when I applied it to my arms and elbows. Not uncomfortable, just noticeable that there was something ‘working’ there!
I followed the directions to build up use over a little while to make sure there would be no issues, and I also stayed out of the sun, using it on work days instead of weekends when I’d be in the garden more. I felt this was important guidance to follow given I could feel some ‘action’ from the cream when I was using it.
I have to say that my skin does feel different – after using it a couple of times, I then applied a normal gentle moisturising body cream and it was absorbed into the newly exfoliated skin nicely leaving a softer feel and looking tighter and fresher. I’m going to try it on my chest area next, which is more delicate skin than arms but I feel that having tested it there I’m happy to try another area that could use a bit of refreshing.
I think I’ll use this with a bit of caution/respect given I could really feel the active ingredients doing something, so that I don’t cause my skin any irritation from over-use, but I’ll keep using it for its benefits. If you have sensitive skin I’d advise a small test patch – I’m not familiar with all the ingredients but it’s not just your average body cream!
So far so good
5 stars for easy application, doesn’t feel greasy after appliying, and skin does feels extra soft and has a slight glow. Only just started using it, so will see if it does what it claims to do regarding skin issues etc after long term use. Not the nicest smelling cream when applied but the smell does go ofter a few mins so not an issue for me.
