Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Nourishing Facial Water Review



Half a month ago, I attended the launch of Burt's Bees Intense Hydration Nourishing Facial Water under the Intense Hydration line.  Without a doubt, you all know this line is made for me --- normal or sometimes combination skin with dry patches.  So I immediately injected this to my current skincare regimen!  After half a month, I'm ready to share my initial thoughts.

Now a quick question for you my dear readers, who doesn't like hydration in a form of water?  Well, companies are finally understanding the need of consumers for products that are close to nature --- aside from the fact that it feels like "water", the IH Nourishing Facial Water is 99.0% natural which gave me that instant attraction!

Burt's Bees IH Nourishing Facial Water Says ---
Infused with the hardy, moisture-loving botanical Clary Sage, Intense Hydration Nourishing Facial Water is clinically proven to give skin an instantly nourishing, pH-balancing boost of hydration. Use it before your favorite moisturizer for visibly smoother, softer skin.
  • Instantly hydrates
  • Improves skin texture
  • Enhances benefits of moisturizers
  • Penetrates skin quickly
  • Noncomedogenic
  • Dermatologist tested

AMW says ---

Pros
  • Packaging. 
  • Skin feels refreshed after every application.
  • Smells great.  Almost faint floral scent that goes away after 30 seconds.
  • Gives instant hydration without the heavy-feel.
  • Non-greasy.
  • Redness is toned down after each application.
  • Skin feels soft and smooth.  (immediate effect)
  • Moisturizer seems to absorb better with IH Hydration Nourishing Facial Water applied beforehand.
  • Safe even for pregnant and lactating moms due to the safe ingredients. (Just to be sure, you still need to check if you have allergies to certain natural ingredients)
Cons
  • Oily-skinned users may not feel or see the effect of using this as compared to users who have normal and dry skin.

Overall
A lightweight hydrating facial water that can be used alone (for users with oily skin who doesn't like the heavy feel ) and can be used before moisturizer for users who need "extra boost of hydration".

Tips
  • You can either apply this using a cotton pad or in my case, if you need extreme hydration, I prefer to apply a good amount on the palm of my hands and gently pat product on skin until completely absorbed.
  • If you prefer to use this product anytime of the day, I highly recommend to transfer some of the content to a spritzer bottle. A perfect way to re-hydrate midday without messing your makeup.
  • Oily skin users may use this alone during daytime as lightweight moisturizer.
  • Can be used even on top of makeup to prevent "powder" effect.
  • To lessen dry patches, pat with cotton pad soaked with IH Nourishing Facial Water.  Leave it for a couple of seconds!
  • If you want a refreshing feel after every use, store a small amount inside the fridge especially during summer.  The cold version of IH Nourishing Facial water can also lessen the look of enlarged pores.
  • Also a perfect "spa-at-home".  Moisten several cotton pads and leave it on key areas of your face that needs hydration.  Leave it until cotton pad is dried up!
Will I repurchase?
Yes


To whom do I recommend this to?
All skin types!

Where to purchase and how much?
At local Burt's Bees priced at Php1,250.00 (approx $28.00).
