A couple of months ago, I had the fantastic opportunity to review the Sea Buckthorn Balancing Facial Cleanser from Sibu Beauty, and immediately became a fan of their products. (See my review here.) As I've said before, I am big into doing things the all natural way, and try to purchase organic products whenever possible, if my budget allows. (Fortunately, being a super-nanny has helped that a little bit. ;)
But not all "all natural" products are created equal. Some of them, despite their nice claims, contain ingredients that are not natural, and sometimes downright harmful. Selecting products, especially for something as sensitive as your face, can be tough. I was already a big fan of Sibu Beauty's facial cleanser, and eager to try some more products, so when they sent me the Sea Buckthorn Daytime Facial Cream to review, I was thrilled. To put it mildly. ;)
I've been using this moisturizer for almost two weeks now, and so far it's all good. The facial cleanser had more of a citrus scent, but this cream is more buttery and kind of smells like honey. It seems a bit thick when you first rub it on (remember to always put creams on while your face is slightly damp, to lock in moisture), but blends into your skin quickly. (And it doesn't leave a heavy scent like regular moisturizers do, which is great, since they usually make me feel queasy.) It seems to hydrate the skin well, without leaving a residue or any heaviness. It's really great under makeup, and acts as a protectant now that the change in temperature is making my skin drier.I will admit that I love the Sibu Beauty facial cleanser best of all (it's just so refreshing!) but this moisturizer finishes things off really nicely after cleansing and toning. And all those healthy things inside it just make you feel even better about putting it on your skin. :)
If you hadn't already heard about them from my previous review, I highly recommend you check out Sibu Beauty. I can honestly say that I love their products and am looking forward to trying more of them in the future. Their eye cream must be fantastic... ;)
I hope you all have a lovely weekend! I'll be around again soon with some more posts. I'm living a really busy, busy life right now, but there's so many good things to write about!
God bless.

P.S. and a Disclaimer: Sibu Beauty let me try their product in exchange for this review, but all the opinions expressed here are honestly my own. I'm super fortunate to be able to promote a product that I use myself every day and really believe in. :)
