First of all, Shea Terra Organics is USA based brand that is committed to provide natural, safe and organics skin care using African natural ingredient whilst at the same time carried mission to help boost local African economy for many hardworking famillies across the continent.
I've been aiming to get STO product for a very long time, however, since I need to pay for international shipping cost that is almost the same as the product price, I let it go. I was so happy when STO finally arrived in Malaysia and quickly grab their Rose Hips Replenish Face Creme. You can see more product in their website at the end of this review.
So back to the review, at first glance, the cream is packaged in ember glass jar and that's already said something in Shea Terra Organics commitment to ensure that the product stays fresh without oxidation.
They are so dedicated to their course that even the label is eco-freindly as they were made using compostable plant material.
Ingredient List: Morrocon Rose Water NPO certified organic, BCS Oko certified organic rose hips fruit oil, vegetable emulsifying wax, shea nilotica, seabuckthorn oil, naturally derived preservatives glucono-delta-lactone and sodium benzoate.
The cream was formulated with 99.7% natural ingredients and uses naturally derived preservative glucono-delta-lactone and sodium benzoate to keep the product fresh for a long time. Its main ingredient are pure Morroccon rose water and rose hips oil was formulated together as anti-aging agents for mature, dry skin and is said to deeply moisturize and working at cellular level to repair cells and replaced vital lipids necessary for youthful looking skin.
General information:
Scent : Strongly rose hips scent with a little hint of rose water at backround. Silly me to expect it to smell lovely roses. The scent might bit too strong at first, kinda like something fermented, however as you get used to it, you'll forgot that its even there.
Texture : Creamy, lotiony and very loose cream. It feels like touching an airy whipped cream the first time I touched it. Since os have high water content it was easy to spread on dry skin. However, preparing your face with toner/essense/serum first is recommended.
Appearance : Slightly off white cream.
Size : 59 ml. The packaging is smaller than I expected, but 59 ml is actually a lot and since you'll only need the cream in small quantity, I recon it'll last for months.
Application : Leaves slight sticky residue but not greasy. It need a longer time to absorb fully, however when it did, the stickeness dissappear and your face will fell very moisturized. A little goes a long way.
Because of its highly moisturizing ability, you can use both at day and night time. I recommend to use a pea size quantity for day time and generous amount for night time. (^,^). After using it for a few weeks, my face somehow felt plump and moisturized, if that is the right way to describe it, especially after night time used. Its a bit pricey but that's is expected for an organic product and all in all, I say it's worth it.
Thank you for reading.
