For something a little different today, here is a guest-review from Jessica. She was kind enough to trial Weleda’s Almond Soothing Facial Oil and share her thoughts with us below.‘I am a big fan of using facial oils as a night time serum, and especially during the cooler months of the year. After trialling the Weleda Almond Soothing Facial Oil for a couple of weeks now, it’s bumped itself up to the top of my list of favourites.

I had never used an almond based facial oil before, but knowing how good almonds are for you in general I figured this would work wonders. The Weleda Almond Soothing Facial Oil is incredibly lightweight, gentle and feels very nourishing on application. It seems to sink into skin faster than the rosehip oils that I normally use, which is a huge plus and makes it a lot easier to use before going to bed (unless of course you like being able to smear oil all over your pillowcase and sheets). It is fragrance free and perfect for those of you who have sensitive skin like myself.

The effects for me have been practically immediate, with my skin looking clear, plump & glowing on waking the next day. If there is one thing I don’t like about the product, it’s the stopper at the top of the bottle that stops too much of the oil pouring out at once. It is handy in the fact that it stops copious amounts of oil escaping, but at the same time it releases very little product and I end up having to tap it on my hand quite a few times to get the right amount of oil out. Having said that, it is a beautiful product and one I would definitely repurchase in the future.’

Thanks so much Jessica!

And because you can take Jessica’s word for it, we thought we’d give away a bottle of Weleda Almond Soothing Facial Oil – head over to the Belle Lumière and leave a comment!
