H20+ Oasis 24 Hydrating Booster Review

Hey kids!

Few months ago I discovered the joys of H20+ Skincare and haven’t turned back since. I really love the line and some of the items have become staple skincare products.

Right now I’m currently obsessing over H20+ Oasis 24 Hydrating Booster.

Jump ahead for some serum lovin’!

What is it?

A serum to boost the performance of your moisturizer by priming your skin for maximum moisture absorption. Allows your skin to maintain and retain moisture for up to 24 hours.

The Good…

I love this stuff. Correction, my dry skin loves this stuff. Although it’s probably best used in the evening I like using it in the day by smoothing it on prior to my moisturizer. The formula allows my skin to remain moist and dewy all day due to the unique formula which allows my skin to retain extra moisture.

The serum is a dual phase system which you shake up to you. It feels a tad greasy and oily going on but it dries down perfectly fine. It doesn’t feel hydrating on my skin nor does it feel moisturizing however when combined with my regular facial cream it seems to work at locking moisture into my skin. Another words, on its own you won’t see a ton of difference in your skin however used in combination with your facial moisturizer you’ll notice a significant change in the way your dry skin feels and reacts throughout the day.

The Bad….

Kinda sad I can’t use its own as it’s not nearly hydrating enough when used alone. It’s definitely a serum meant for use UNDER your current moisturizer.

Who Might Like It?

  • Anyone who has dry skin and needs a boost of moisture throughout the day!
  • Anyone who needs something more than their current moisturizer to up their hydration levels.

Who Might Not Like It?

  • Anyone with oily/combination skin types (this may make you oilier even though the formula is oil free).

Final Thoughts….

I can’t currently make too much use of this since my skin is begining to shows the signs of being oily but in the Winter it’s an absolute god sent. I like the way it keeps my face feeling moist and dewy all day long. Sadly, I don’t think this will work for those of you with combination or oily skin types but dry skin chicas will feel its love.

Nice one!

    hey musey, i have almost all of the basic skincare line, except this ahah, i received a sample but i also don’t find it hydrating, i use p n j’s whitening essence instead, it really works! I love H20+ though, especially the marine cleansing gel and night oasis.
