Krave Moisture Souffle Night Cream: A Review


Moisturizers are our skin's best friend they say, and I totally agree! Having a combination to oily skin needs thorough and careful treatment. According to beauty experts, they are actually the hardest skin type to manage. Every skin type needs to be moisturized, even the oily ones. Our skin tends to be oily because they produce more oil to compensate with our skin's dehydration. So like out throats, we have to let them drink.

I have found a new brand of organic skin care and cosmetics through the internet. Basing on the experiences of others, I decided to try it to. And now, my skin loves Krave Minerale Cosmeceuticals makeup and skin care!

One thing that I am loving is the Krave Moisture Souffle Night Cream. I got it for Php320.00 for a 20-gram cream.

According to Krave's product description:

MOISTURE SOUFFLE night crème infused with GAPBAS (Green tea, Apricot, Papaya, Banana, Aloe vera & silk)

NO IRRITATING CHEMICALS
NO HARMFUL PRESERVATIVES

This is the most luxurious moisturizer you will ever find. We encourage you to enjoy the yummy scent of this product because of the many essential oils infused in it, unlikeother expensive brands that obtain their product’s scent by using chemically based preservatives & perfumes. You know how we hated those harmful & irritating chemicals. Moisture Souffle night crème smells luscious & feels incredible when applied. Replenished with 6 organic botanicals high in Vitamin B complex, folic acid, Vitamin C, vitamin A to help detoxify, supplies skin with sheer hydration & stimulate cell growth. Perfect for super dry skin that lacks moisture & balance, for the reduction of fine line & wrinkles & to even out skin tone. This moisturizer like soufflé will keep your face looking healthy & more radiant. 

SKIN BENEFICIAL KEY INGREDIENTS:

1. GREEN TEA contains a cocktail of potent antioxidants called catechins, which help fight damage caused by free radicals. Helps soothes and revives dull & lifeless skin.
2. APRICOT eliminates skin blemishes & treats damaged skin. It is useful for maintaining skin clarity, suppleness, and elasticity.
3. PAPAYA exfoliates the skin revealing a healthier, whiter & glowing skin. Rich in antioxidants such as vitamin A.
4. BANANA composed of tissue-building elements, protein, vitamins including vitamin C, minerals & anti oxidant properties.
5. ALOE VERA It makes the skin smooth and glowing, hydrates the skin and relieves heat on the skin caused by sunburn. Excellent skin moisturizer.
6. SILK deeply stimulate the muscle tissue, retain the skin's natural moisture, preventing dryness, while absorbing excess sebum. For the acne prone, silk even contains anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties.

APPLICATION:
Apply evenly on your face & neck. Do not over apply, little amount is always enough. Massage gently in an upward motion. Best to use after using CUPINE ALOEPA facial wash & FRUITTIE PORELESS toner spray. Gentle to use every night and even before applying your make up. 

It is in a plastic container with a twist-open cap and another cover inside. The packaging is like the other creams, nothing so special about it. 

The cream is thick but it doesn't bother me. It actually gives me an assurance that the consistency actually helps lock in the moisture and I was right. It feels heavy on the skin at first, but wait til it dries and absorbed by the skin. My skin feels so soft and supple when I wake up. My skin doesn't look dull rather it gives it a healthy glow. 

One thing I love about it is the scent. It smells like ummmm.. close to Bath and Body Works' Warm Vanilla Sugar. It's so yummy, like I want to taste it. Haha.

 This is how it looks on the back of my hand. So thick and opaque.

After applying it evenly on the skin, it doesn't look like you have something on it. But the skin is soft and super bango!

I also use this as my morning moisturizer. Since it is intended to be a night cream and they do not have a day moisturizer  I first asked Krave's specialist if I can also use this as an alternative. Gladly, it was okay. But I still requested them if they can formulate a day-moisturizer. So I apply a lesser amount on my face in the morning. The effect was good. But since it leaves my skin a little shiny, I apply Krave Skin Hydrator and Eliminator (REVIEW) as my powder/ primer/ finishing veil. After that, everything was perfect! And for maximum results, I use Cupine Aloepa Facial Wash and Fruttie Poreless Toner.
  • HITS: Scent | Consistency | Moisturizing effect | Can be purchased online (Krave Minerale Cosmeceuticals or Women's Little Pleasures)
  • MISSES: The packaging: I wish it will be in a pump container or in a tube (for hygienic purposes) | Price: Quite expensive
  • RATING: 4.5 out of 5.
Do you have an oily-combination skin like me? If yes, what moisturizers work perfectly for you? Kindly share your facial routines, it might work for me as well. Thanks!
