Magical Moringa

I know I'm an outlier in that I use almost nothing on my face. I've never moisturized, I don't wear makeup, and I rarely wash my face with anything stronger than water. My skin is very normal and not acne prone or dry so I've never had to fix any problem areas or pay special attention to it. But I was drawn toward this product because a matte moisturizer just sounded so intriguing. So I bought it. And I tried it (for a few days now). And I kinda love it. At first I was quite surprised by the green plant smell, I feel like there's an intention behind it that I don't understand. My mum thought it was heavenly but my 3yo nephew hated it lol. I don't mind it. I bought online so I couldn't smell it before hand. I'm glad that was the case because based on smell alone I probably would have chosen something else, then missed out on the experience that this moisturizer gave me. I LOVE the feeling. It melts onto the skin as you apply it but then as you spread it around it is smooth and powdery (without looking powdery) like the powder feeling makes your hands glide over your skin while you apply it. It's really incredible. And this is probably a personal thing but it's really overwhelmingly lovely to put a little bit of care into my face. Like it's something that everyone else understands but I've only just learned. Catching a waft of the fragrance startles me with happiness, and I find myself enjoying touching my face when that never would have occurred to me previously. As promised, my skin is matte and moisturized, but I wasn't prepared for the way it made me feel a little better about myself. So thanks Lush! I already turned around and ordered a pot of this for my mum as well.

I never write reviews but this product is AMAZING for my combination oily skin. I have only been using this product a few days but it has been over plus 30 degrees and crazy humid. My skin has never looked so great! This stuff really does give you a matte finish that actually last ALL day! Even with foundation my skin still looks matte and not oily at all. I am 100% hooked on this and will never ever go with out it!

We love this product. I heard about it on a YouTube video and bought it to try. It is a great product that moisturizes and leaves a nice matte finish. I see a noticeable difference in my skin after using for several weeks now.

So glad I asked for a sample of this. Will definitely purchase the full size. It glides on so smoothly, has a calming, barely there scent. I don't use primer for makeup but I can certainly see how this would be ideal for that use. I actually used it just as a facial moisturizer and love it. Makes me face feel smooth and even.

I can't attest to its value as a primer, since I don't wear foundation. But as a facial moisturizer I love that it leaves my skin soft and smooth but not shiny or greasy-looking. The scent is not my favorite (that's the scent of Gorgeous but ouch the price of that one!) but the scent is pleasant enough.

I tried using this as a makeup primer and it just didn't work out for me. It might be more of a "me" problem and less of a problem with the product. I have extremely textured skin with acne scars and make up only enhances it. I bought this primer hoping for a miracle and sadly it wasn't. It is a great moisturizer however! My skin feels so soft and hydrated after I use this and I will continue to purchase it as my daytime moisturizer.

I use aqua marina on my rosacea face in the morning shower. Then I spray some eau de roma and use a little celestial moisture and enchanted around my eyes. Do this while still damp with the eau de roma. Then mix a little charisma with the moringa and put all over face and neck and chest. For the first time in my life I have a regular face all day. No oily zones! Yet I am not dry. This is wonderful stuff!!!

This product is incredible! It's a bit weird to use at first, but if you just rub it between your fingers for a few seconds until it's melty it goes on very smoothly. I have combination acne-prone skin. This stuff keeps my face completely matte ALL DAY LONG, no matter the weather or what I'm doing. I would not recommend using it under makeup though - I tried and it made my foundation look super patchy and weird. It looks fine under just a light dusting of powder, though, if you want extra protection against grease. Overall, amazing!

I actually don't use this as a primer. I use this for in between my thighs ( chub rub area ) It really smells amazing and it makes me feel fresh on those really hot California days..,

I never write reviews but this stuff really is that good! Today i was out in 90+ degree weather for hours and my skin is still matte. Usually no matter where I am i can't even make it an hour before I get all oily! No other product that I have ever used has ever come close.
