Even though I am only in my early 20's, I have learned that good skincare is worth every penny. Although I am not ready to invest in $300 eye cream just yet, I am loving Josie Maran's products because of their natural ingredients and because Argan oil does wonders for my acne-prone skin.
The Josie Maran Argan Daily Moisturizer with Natural Broad Spectrum SPF 40 ($35) is a great daily moisturizer and skincare all in one, without any greasiness or odd smells typically associated with that high of a sunscreen. This is marketed for all skin types and has Argan, Apricot, Jojoba, and Pomegranate oil along with Chamomile and Green Tea Extract and Aloe. So many good-for-you ingredients along with no parabens or synthetics and is vegan and cruelty free. This is pump-style application and although is comes out white and a little watery, it does not leave a white cast on the skin, photographs just fine, and sinks into skin quickly. My only qualm with it is that I wish it were a bit easier to distribute all over my face, because the argan oil sucks into your skin so quickly (at least on my face). That isn't a deal breaker though, because you don't need a thick layer of this to get all of the benefits. Also, this may be common knowledge, but I tend to rub my eyes from allergies---don't do it with this! It will transfer from your face into your eyes and burn like sunscreen. Which is obvious, I know. So now I have to kick my habit of touching my face. But for this product, I think I can. I really love this moisturizer and I highly recommend it, especially for oily skin because argan oil does wonders to regulate that oil production and doesn't irritate acne. Panda Approved
Ooooh! This sounds really great!!! I'll have to get a sample and try it!
ReplyDeleteI really think you would love it Tracy!
DeleteLove that it's a little watery, seems nice. I just really dislike thick creams :/
ReplyDeleteMe too, that is why I love this formula!
DeleteI was looking forward to trying out this product and once I read your post, I decided to buy it. Sunscreen is the only face product I like to wear and love Argan oil for my hair, so I thought why not for my face?! I wanted to let you know though that when I went to Sephora the other day, the MUA told me that JM is re-releasing this product b/c they have decided to reformulate it. So, these ones are either sold out or discontinued. Thought to share w/ you in case you would like to post it for your readers. :)
