Antipodes Avocado Pear Nourishing Night Cream as just been voted Best Moisturiser in the Natural Health Beauty Awards 2011 so we thought we had better put it to the test and see what all the hype is about.
Antipodes Avocado Pear Nourishing Night Cream £33 for 60ml from New Zealand has rave reviews and the scientific studies to back up their claims. Not only this, but it’s completely natural (no gm, parabens, sls, mineral oils or petrochemicals) has no artificial colours or fragrances, and is completely cruelty free.
So what is it that makes Antipodes Night Cream so special? First off, you see the research posted on the front of the box which tells you :
“Scientifically shown to stimulate type 1 collagen in human skin cells by up to 92%*
*Independent in-vitro investigation, Trinity bioactives, 2009″
So you know you’re going to be on the road to getting skin that is nourished, moisturised and looks younger.
The second thing you notice, once you’ve opened the pot, is the smell… it has almost an earthy botanical undertone to it, which reminds you that there are ingredients here that are going to really do some good. The fact that the smell isn’t too feminine means men can happliy use this product without smelling “all flowery”.
Once you’ve managed to stop smelling the cream and saying “ooh that smells so exotic…” you will notice that the cream is very rich. This means that there is the danger of over-applying, when really only a small amount is needed with each application, which then sinks into the skin really quickly, leaving what feels like a protective barrier.
“Restore life to your skin overnight with this deeply nourishing, superior-performance botanical night cream.”
The active ingredients in Antipodes Nourishing Night Cream work together overnight, the avocado oil restores, calendula oil heals and repairs, manuka honey moistens, while Vinanza Grape® neutralizes free radical damage. You really do notice the difference after your first application, the next morning skin feels nurtured, softer and calmer.
Antipodes recommends this cream for most skin types, the only skin type I would not recommend to use Antipodes Avocado Pear Nourishing Night Cream is oily skin types, it is ideal for anyone with mature or dry skin that needs feeding and restoring, or anyone who wants to give their skin a treat. It is recommended for an even more intense effect to use Antipodes Divine Face Oil first.
In essence Antipodes Avocado Pear Nourishing Night Cream is a hardworking night cream that makes your skin feel soft and nourished.
