Have you ever heard of InstaNatural? No, neither had I until a couple of weeks ago. I was given the chance to try a moisturiser from their range, I’m always up for trying and sharing a new brand so I was definitely in.
InstaNatural backs their products with a lifetime money back guarantee, no matter where you buy their product. You can get this from Amazon and is currently £19.95.
I was excited to try this moisturiser as it contains 2.5% Retinol. Retinol is used for anti-aging and to dramatically reduce wrinkles. Even though wrinkles may not be something for me to worry about too much at the moment I am all for preventative measures. I use anti-aging products for that exact reason, to try and slow down the aging process. There isn’t much point waiting until you have wrinkles before using these products! You will have a harder job trying to reduce them.
This moisturiser also contains Vitamin C, Hyaluronic acid, Jojoba oil, Shea butter and green tea. I really like this list of ingredients. Moisturising whilst also adding ingredients that will help improve your skin condition.
The one ingredient I am not overly impressed with is Palm Oil, the damage this causes to the environment by obtaining this ingredient is ridiculous.
When I first received the product I wasn’t exactly wowed by the packaging. It doesn’t stand out and makes it look a little cheap in my opinion but I did notice it is a massive 100ml! A face cream being this size is not the most common, so this will definitely last quite a while. You do not need to use a lot, about a pea sized amount will easily be enough for your face. I love the pump on this bottle though, the product will not be exposed to the air so it wont get contaminated keeping it nice and hygienic!
This moisturiser isn’t thin and isn’t of a thick consistency, it is kind of in the middle. It’s really hard to explain, it’s slightly gooey but doesn’t feel like that when you rub it in. After I have applied this to my face it leaves what feels like a barrier on my skin. I do like this as it feels like it’s plumping my skin and adding all the good ingredients into my skin. I have not broken out with any spots since using this so that is a plus! It does say on the bottle that if you have sensitive skin then to only use this once a day, such as at night. If you are using it twice a day it says to use an SPF in the day with it as this cream can make your skin sensitive to sunlight. It is the Retinol that can make your skin sensitive. I have only been using this cream at night as I never seem to use cream in the day. I have not noticed my skin become anymore sensitive.
I really do like this product, I mean it fights wrinkles, reduces blemishes and breakouts and hydrates skin! What more could you want. I just wish the packaging was a little more attractive and appealing but I do love that it is 100ml! I would definitely try more from their range. I have noticed they do serums which I would love to try out as I find serums make my skin silky soft!
If you are looking for a new moisturiser to try out then I would recommend this, it will definitely last a while and is good value for money because of how large this bottle is!

Sounds like a good moisturiser. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a moisturiser in a 100 ml size before, so that’s a great bonus!
