When it comes to skincare I'm always on the look out for products that not only work, but are natural as possible. I have changed my routine a lot over the years due to the condition of the skin. Recently I have been keeping my everyday skincare routine to a bare minimum with a few key products, and I think this may now be an essential!
So let me give you a little background information on the company itself. H O stands for Halal and Organic. They offer skincare which is handmade and does not contain alcohol or animal ingredients.
I was kindly allowed to pick a product to review, so decided upon the Intensive Rescue Face Serum. This serum is suitable for acne-prone, combination and scarred skin.
The website Describes it as:
"This serum is perfect for improving and treating various skin related issues such as acne, eczema and psoriasis. Sea Buckthorn has been customarily used for a wide range of skin ailments for its regenerative and healing actions within the skin. All the sustainably sourced organic ingredients used in this serum have been infused together for the sole purpose to give your skin a day off from all the stresses life can bring and zap those blemishes away."
It contains olive oil for its moisturising properties; sea buckthorn which helps to heal the skin and aloe vera to calm redness. The consistency is almost like liquid so spreads easily, and a little goes a long way. Because it comes in a jar container I don't want to contaminate the ingredients so I like to dip a cotton bud in and add to my face. Being a germaphobe this is probably the only negative I can think of.
I apply daily- once or twice a day under moisturiser. Sometimes I will use as a replacement to my night cream. I have found it to calm my skin, especially after a break out and it does help to reduce the size of the blemish. I have noticed that my acne marks have lightened but I have been using this in conjunction with rice flour, which helps a lot to lighten marks) What I like about this as opposed to the Holland and Barrets aloe and Tea tree formula is that it's moisturising and does not dry out my skin. The Holland and Barrets gel is very strong and stings my eyes every time I apply, and I don't even have overally sensitive eyes!
Conclusion
Overall I am very happy with the serum and would recommend to anyone that is looking for a quality serum which delivers.
If you have different skin type you can find a serum for you on their website.
