Late last week, I tried a new overnight mask that turned out to be slightly more potent than anticipated. Had I layered some Marula Oil over it, I would have avoided waking up with a peeling face. However, I also wouldn’t have discovered the amazingness that is Lavido Hydrating Cream.
What is it?
Ultra moisturizing without being greasy, this yellow hued, medium weight cream is formulated to comfort and balance every skin type. Buttery soft, its triple threat skills include revitalizing, restoring and repairing. My traumatized skin was in an instant state of bliss after a light layer of this nourishing blend of plant extracts.
What’s in it?
The ingredient highlights in the Lavido Hydrating Cream are Evening Primrose Seed, Sea Buckthorn and Pumpkin Seed. This botanical trifecta is spruced up with Vitamin E, Salicylic Acid, Green Algae, Rosemary, Black Cumin Seed and Jojoba Oil among others. All sorts of plush, the natural medley will leave your skin hydrated for hours as it softens the appearance of fines lines and fatigue.
Lavido
New to the US market, Lavido dates back to 2003 when Ido Magal, an herbalist from Israel’s Galilee Valley, concocted his first skincare solution. You may notice branding differences as you search for the product. The Hydrating Cream tube, for example, appears to double as Evening Primrose, Sea Buckthorn, & Pumpkin Seed Age Away Hydrating Cream and comes in a jar.
Check out travelbeauty.com because they’re offering the same packaging, which includes a generous .34 oz. tube of the Alert Eye Cream.
Why do I love it?
In addition to the phenomenal herbal aroma, you mean? And the fact that the range is Gwyneth approved and available at goop.com? Love the texture –it spreads like a dream and sinks in immediately; its vibe: pure well-being. Utilizing raw, plant-based ingredients, the Lavido Hydrating Cream delivers superb quality without feeling ‘crunchy’ or patronizing. Best of all, at $55 it’s affordable.
