Snowberry is a New Zealand skincare range with a difference. Combining both science and nature to create an awesome range. Initially, in fact, I was drawn to Snowberry while studying my business diploma marketing papers, this just proved to me, furthermore, that the 'behind the scenes' / backbone of this company is so strongly built, well planned, thought out and developed. I think I'm on to a winner!

When I received my first package from Snowberry the first thing I noticed was the packaging - as you would - but this packing in particular I thought was something a little bit "different", interesting, and just really cool!
The products I received were the Nourishing Exfoliator, Instant Deep Cleanser and Gentle Remineralising Toner.
First off, like all great quality products, a little goes a long way!
Nourishing Exfoliator: I found this product great! A pea size amount was ample, I could feel the exfoliating properties doing their job, but without it being rough, harsh or too grainy, (my skin will go bright red and over sensitive if something is too harsh and this product was far from it). My skin felt great afterwards as well, nice and smooth without the redness. (Bonus!)
Instant Deep Cleanser: The colour of this product surprised me a little - it is an orange colour. The smell is very subtle, and the texture quite light weight. To use, the colour has NO effect on the result, rest assured! But the result itself was great! Instantly my skin looked and felt amazing, - soft and glowing. A definite thumbs up from me!
Gentle Cleanse & Tone: (previously Gentle Remineralising Toner) This is probably my favourite product out of the three, although I do love them all! This isn't your typical spray on toner, it is in a pump bottle, still quite lightweight and after applying you rinse it off. From application through to rinsing and drying I found this product calming, lightly cooling and very refreshing on the skin, such a nice feeling!
I was lucky enough to get another opportunity to review two more Snowberry products that have long intrigued me. Needless to say, they didn't disappoint.
New Radiance Face Serum: Considered a "breakthrough product" and for good reason! As time goes on, ones personal care, personal needs change, so after noticing a few lines appearing particularly on my forehead that I'm not sure how I felt about, and coming to the realisation that trying to pretend they weren't there, or would go away became clearly wishful thinking, I decided action must be taken! On the skin, the new radiance serum has a gentle, subtle firming feel on the face. With continual use I can notice some difference in those pesky lines fading, however, when it comes to anti ageing products, it will always be a gradual and ongoing process. Prevention is better than cure so the earlier one starts the relevant products, the better. (For this product, 25+ is recommended). For me, simplicity is still key, two pumps of this serum in the palm of your hand and applied to the face nightly is all it takes. Surely we all have time for that!
Smoothing Eye Serum: Eye care products are one of my favourites since studying makeup and learning how much thinner and more delicate the eye area is compared to the rest of the face - and no, a standard moisturiser won't "do the trick" in this area. The Snowberry smoothing eye serum is light weight, gentle and effective. Being a serum, this product does offer light moisturising benefits, without being super thick and heavy. Best applied morning and night using the fourth finger, gently pat the product on, (avoiding pressure, this is not an area you want to tug and pull on), half a pump easily does both under eyes, so 15mls lasts a long time!
I would recommend Snowberry to anyone who is in search of a great quality, more natural alternative to skincare. Snowberry offers an amazing range of skincare products based on a "pure but active" approach, and personally, I think they have nailed it!
