Skin Functional is an affordable South African skincare brand that has come into my life, stolen my heart, and enriched my skin. They are known for their fabulous range of serums, jam-packed full of the best skincare ingredients you can find, making sure that everyone can have healthy, fabulous, and glowing skin without breaking the bank. The fact that this is a “local is lekker” brand, made in South Africa, is just the cherry on top.
This month, Skin Functional launched its very first daily moisturiser, to add to its serum-based range. I have been using it for a few weeks now, and I have to say, it definitely has the WOW factor and has absolutely impressed me. Not only does it perform beautifully, but the results, much like their serums, are literally visible after a single-use.
What makes it different? The Daily Moisturiser is made with 5% Black Ginseng + ATP Complex a powerful combination, with anti-oxidant and hydration properties. Black Ginseng is collagen boosting and assists the natural growth of cells to rebuild the skin. This skin food is packed with Vitamins B1, B2, B12, and minerals which help to increase oxygen and circulation in your skin cells. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities also help to protect skin from free radical damage. The ATP Complex actually gives power to the batteries of skin cells and increases their functioning. As we age, we produce less ATP Complex, so having this ingredient in a daily moisturiser increases the functioning of cells.
This moisturiser is a beautiful product. I love using it, and my skin adores it. The texture of it is thick and creamy, yet not rich or oily. It soaks into the skin and doesn’t feel greasy at all. It leaves a gorgeous smooth finish that feels soft, nourished, and hydrated. I have used this morning and night, and it performs perfectly both ways. It gives you a great canvass under makeup without piling and doesn’t slip on your pillow at night. It definitely gives your skin the best of both worlds.
It’s like they say, “Instagram and Snapchat filters are great, but great skin is better”. With this moisturiser, you get that. With Skin Functional you get great, and healthy-looking skin and everybody deserves to look and feel their best, because after all when you look your best, you give your best.
The Skin Functional Daily Moisturiser is suitable for all skin types and can be used both morning and evening for hydrated and healthier-looking skin. It is available to purchase from www.skinfunctional.com and retails for just R290 (50ML)
