What Skin Needs Skin Balm & Soothing Skin Gel Review

I was kindly sent two products from the What Skin Needs range to try out, Skin Balm* & Soothing Skin Gel*.   I really like this range as I have already tried out their Hydrating Facial Serum* and really liked it. Read my review here.

The first product I tried out was the Skin Balm.

Skin Balm costs £9.99 for 75ml and I must say that it is definitely staying as part of my skincare routine.  I use it twice a day in the morning and evening before bed and use a small amount of product which I rub into my elbows and it absorbs really quickly leaving behind no greasy residue.

I have to say that I was very impressed with this product.  I have really dry, cracked skin on my elbows and usually nothing I use makes much of a difference but I used this for a couple of days and my elbows were much smoother with no cracked skin at all. 

This product is recommended for - reducing irritations, dry and damaged skin, revives stressed skin and skin cell renewal.

The Soothing Skin Gel costs £9.99 for 75ml. This product has been great to apply to my skin after I've been out in the sun.   It's a gel consistency and when applied it really cools the skin and takes away any itchiness. Again, I apply it twice a day, using it on my arms and the back of my neck which tends to get quite itchy for some reason.  It absorbs into my skin quickly and leaves no residue.  Both products have a barely noticeable fragrance. This product is recommended for - Sun Damage, Windburn, Itchy Skin & Skin Cell Renewal.

What Skin Needs does not test their products on animals.  I liked both of these products and they are such a reasonable price too.  You can read more about the brand here.
