Simple Kind To Skin Vital Vitamin Night Cream

Another Simple skin care product with an ironically complicated name. I’ve used a lot of Simple products simply because they are extremely cheap and they don’t contain any crap. With the exception of the eye makeup remover (which was awful) their products do the job very nicely and my skin reacts well to them. Here is what Simple have to say:

VITAL VITAMINS
Pro-Vitamin B5 actively restores, softens and smoothes
Vitamin E moisturises to improve skin condition
Vitamin F renews and regenerates

SKIN LOVING NUTRIENTS
Glycerin hydrates and nourishes
Allantoin softens and protects
Bisabolol soothes and calms

NO PERFUME, NO COLOUR
No unnecessary or harsh chemicals so it won't upset your skin

Normally I have combination skin. Enviromental disaster oil slick round the nose and Sahara dry on my cheeks. During my recent stint in Thailand however the whole lot jumped on the oily band wagon. Since then I’ve been able to get away with just using this at night and sunscreen during the day and despite it being moisturising enough to look after the dry bits when my skin is feeling more its usual self I don’t find this too heavy now my skin is oily. It sinks in very quickly with no oily residue.

I like the fact it doesn’t have a scent. I do suffer from irritant dermatitis and if, for example, I’ve used a face mask putting a scented moisturiser on afterwards can sometimes cause problems. No such issues with this product!

At £4.99 (and often on buy 2 get 1 free!) for 50ml it’s great value for money. The only place where the cheapness is apparent is the packaging. Its light weight flimsy plastic. So light weight that at first I thought it must be empty! Honestly though I could care less about the packaging. It does the job and it does it well and the price is definitely right. If you have super dry skin you may want something a little heavier but for most I think it’s a safe bet! I’ll be repurchasing soon x
